People tend to use the terms "end of the world" and "second coming" synonymously, when they are not the same thing. The rebuilding of the temple is a prophecy related to the second coming only. A "great shaking" from God could shake things up pretty bad without the second coming or the end of the world, and we would all be here to experience it. So, I wouldn't take great comfort that the temple hasn't been rebuilt, yet.

The altar has been rebuilt as noted on this thread previously. Is it possible that the temple also has been prefabricated and is ready for assembly? I've heard that story for years.

I also heard Benson Phillips say, a VERY long time ago, because of all that fighting around Jerusalem, a stray missle could "accidently" take out the temple mount and the sight could be cleared and the temple rebuilt pretty quick...if it's already fabricated.

Is that enough speculation for you? I can go on...

In the past there were several times when some folks sold all their stuff, went to the mountains to wait for the end of the world on a certain day. We know how that turned out. Now, we have scripture being fulfilled in ways unprecedented, especially related to the pattern of historic events on the Hebrew Calendar and the coming signs in the heavens.

Also, now, in the heart of Christians everywhere, there seems to be a belief that "something is about to happen". That "something" we just don't have words for, other than phrases like "the end of the world" or the "second coming" or "a great shaking" or "judgment on America".

So what now? What do we do? Communicate with Jesus. If there is anything to be done, He will tell you. We could use terms like "get right with God"...which is a good place to start. "Repent" is another one. "Get saved" is another.

So, awareness, historically, you're all over the place. I don't know what's going to happen, if anything, but I do know we should watch and pray. Then, "Look up! For our redemption draws near."

All the prophecies have been with us for a very long time, but one day, they will be fulfilled.
