Rebuilding the Temple
(Rev 11:1-2) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the
angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God,
and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court
which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under
foot forty and two months.
Rebuilding the Temple
I. ITS LOCATION
JERUSALEM
(Rev 11:1-2) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of
God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it
is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and
two months.
(Rev 11:8) And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
A. Its meaning to God
(Psa 137:6) If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above
my chief joy.
(Psa 102:13) Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
(Zec 3:2) And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan;
even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a
brand plucked out of the fire?
(Psa 48:1-2) A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the LORD, and
greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the
great King.
(Psa 48:8) As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of
hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
(Zec 8:3) Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and
Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the
mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain.
B. Its linage
NOTES
It is the place where the throne of Lucifer was when he lead the “sons of God” in worship to God. (Ezk. 28)
It was the place where God took dust and created Man
It is the place where God promised Abraham that he would make him a great nation
It is the place where David desired to build God a house.
It is the place where Christ will rule from in the future
C. Its current impact
NOTES
In 70 Ad the Roman General Titus bowled his way through Jerusalem and destroyed the Temple and scattered that nation.
(Mat 24:1-2) And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples
came to him for to shew him the buildings of the
temple.And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these
things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here
one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
NOTES

For centuries the Jewish people where scatted through out the world. But just like God said in Ezk. 37 “He would regather them back in their land
Theodor Herzl
NOTES
In in 1917 the league of nations offers them some land in North Africa. But the Jewish were not satisfied with that because it was not the land that was promised to them.
Then along comes WW I. The Germans where using their Navy to block Nitrates from South Africa that Great Britain was using to Make gun powder.
Winston Churchill contacted a Chemist he knew and ask for help in the problem
NOTES
That man was, Chaim Weizmann and he helped the British war effort, by developing a new method for manufacturing of gun powder without nitrates.
After the war Great Britain wants to reward him. He being a Jew and a Zionist, supported the movement of Jews to the homeland
Therefore in 1918 the Ruler of the greatest super power on Earth at the time invoked the “Balfour declaration”
NOTES
Therefore the land was prepared for the Jews, but the Jews were not prepared for the land
It would be 30 years before the land and the people would become a nation
Although the Nation of Israel was a Nation in 1948, it did not occupy Jerusalem until 1967…
