Messiah-mania hits fever pitch in Israel
Wow...when Rabbis start talking like this you know that the time is close! They have no idea that the Messiah they accept will be the Antichrist...
"Is there a connection between the coming of the Messiah and the rebuilding of the Temple?"
“In the vast majority of the Jewish people, there is a connection,” [Rabbi David Bar-Hayim] said, adding most people, Jewish or not, believe these two things will happen together."
It's not just the rebuilding of the third temple that has Jewish religious leaders excited - They're also looking at Trumps "Deal of the Century" as ushering in the Messianic Age.
According to Amir Tsarfadi's insider sources, Trump's plan takes a completely different approach to peace than in past negotiations. Instead of getting Israel to give up more and more land (facilitating a two state solution), this plan will build up Israel and make it more prosperous than ever before, which would encourage cooperation from Israel's surrounding enemies. This is because many of those opposing nations would benefit from Israel's water harvesting and information technology, not to mention digging themselves out of their own economic holes. If this plan is really in place, it'll be fascinating to see it in practice!
Amir has also aptly pointed out that Daniel 9:27 says that the Antichrist will "confirm a covenant" with many, implying that the covenant (or agreement) will already be in place when he confirms it. The word for confirm comes from Strong's H1396 - gabar, which means to exceed or to strengthen. What would exceed or strengthen a middle east peace deal in which Israel gets everything they could want? ...How about the third Temple?
The article reads:
"Officials say there will never be a perfect time for the roll-out, but that they are laying the groundwork now for when an opportune time becomes apparent."
It's very possible that the opportune time will be after God is glorified, when Israel survives a massive one day war with her enemies.
Again, nothing is set in stone yet, but I can definitely see prophetic events lining up incredibly quickly. Jesus was clear that His return would happen suddenly. If we're not paying attention, we run the risk of being caught off guard and not being ready.
Watchers, watch! Sleepers, wake up!
