This blog is in response to Pastor Armstrong video presentation about the 3rd Temple construction and Moshia:

1st - Does the Jews really rejected Jesus?  Your own books, Acts, give testimony that thousands of Jews accepted Jesus, even his brother James had a synagogue and was ok with the rest of the Jewish community, Acts 15.  I do think otherwise, that due that many Jews accepted Jesus, the Temple was destroyed and we get so many persecutions for eventually practicing idolatry as the greeks.

2nd - Shabbat is for the Israelis only, it is part of the covenant (circumsition); it is not for the other nations as the Seventh Day Adventists and other churches want to present.   Armstrong is an ex SDA pastor as I understand.  The nations only have the 7 Laws of Noah.

3rd - The Menorah and other sacred objects were taken to Rome, you can see it at the Ark of Rome sculpture.  But we do made those artifacts completly new and ready to be placed in the Temple.

4th - Jesus, as a good Jew, understood Daniels prophecies about the destruction of the Temple, except that he said "it will not be stone over stone", Mark 13:2, and it did not came to pass, as you can see the kotel stones over stones.

5th - We do Jews do not make issues on discrepancy of opinions - we do have different opinions for everything - that is our freedom and not dogmatic theology.  So in conclusion some of us believe the Temple will come from Heavens, as your book of Revelation try to present (New Jerusalem).  See attached photo of the biblical perception of the 3rd Temple comming down from heaven.

Having saying that, let me indicate to you that Zacharias the prophet has excellent chapters presenting the "hate" of the nations against Israel.  Any one that declares that they do not want Israel to be a nation, as Psalm 83:1-7 is taking a position with the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, the enemies of Israel.  God declares via Zachariah (Chapters 8 thru 12) that whoever take part with the enemies of Jerusalem will be destroyed.  For your information the Edomites are the children of Esau, and today their base is in Rome, the Vatican and all its daughters (churches).  Ishamelites are the arabs.

So in this days, the last days, we will see how at the beginning Edom attacks Ishamel but then get united under Gog for the Magog war.  We will see it happening, then our Only God, Adonay, thru his Moshia will come to "liberate" us.  Moshia is not a divine being is just a man, like you and me, that was conceptualized by the Creator before creating the Universe.  He will be a "soldier", "un caudillo", as we say on spanish.  He will bring  the people of Israel, united as Malachias 4:6 present.  He will unite us. He will not divide us as Jesus proclaimed in Mathew 10:34-37 and Luke 12:49-53.  History tell us that Christians, followers of Jesus, assessinated many of us during the Inquisition and during the Holocaust.  As today we are suppose to be curse because we do not accept Jesus as our Moshia and even less as a divinge being. 

Its your freedom of choice to believe or not to believe, we do not believe that Jesus fullfilled all the requirements to be our Moshia and the Church changed many of his teaching for political reasons.

So in mean time, while Moshia is waiting try to make peace with us (Israel) and with God, the father and God of Jesus, as he declared on John 4:22-23 and John 20:17.
