Who here has said that?
You did!
MAD believes that there are certain promises and blessings made specifically to the nation of Israel (and them alone) that will be fulfilled.

Why does that make them idiots, Tet?Speaking of idiots, there are idiot dispensationalists/futurists that are ranchers in Texas and Oklahoma who are trying to breed a perfect red heifer without spot........ because everyone knows you can't have a third temple without a perfect red heifer without spot.
That's why you are an idiot.Um...you're the dispensationalist, not me.
Then why did you say to replace "UN" with "God" in Glorydaz's statement?I know that glorydaz does not LITERALLY think the UN is God, but he/she thinks that what the UN did in 1947 was God fulfilling a prophecy.
Why does that make them idiots, Tet?
God did lots of things through men.
And how many of them replaced their own name with God, Tet?And men have done many stupid things thinking God was doing His will through them (i.e. Crusades, Inquisitions, etc.)
If Israel wants a red heifer, who would they go to if not some of the best cattle breeder in the world?Because the temple was destroyed forever in 70AD.
Who here has said that?That is one reason you cannot say one flesh antichrist nation or religion is more 'in the will of God', or however you want to put it than another.
A unsaved jew is no better than an unsaved muslim.

There will never be a third temple condoned by God.
There is no need for a perfect red heifer without spot. Even if the idiot ranchers that have been vainly trying to produce one, could produce one, it would be of no use.
They might as well join Indiana Jones and look for the Ark of the Covenant.
That's a bold statement.There will never be another perfect red heifer without spot.
I've never said any different.The Christ rejecting Israelis that live in the Middle East today need to be told about Christ Jesus.
And that's a bold-faced lie.Instead, dispies/futurists like yourself encourage them to continue to reject Christ Jesus
So you believe the temple described in revelation as a metaphorical temple?
No, Revelation was written before 70AD. The temple mentioned in chp 11 describes the temple that was standing at the time (Herod's temple)
Read chp 21, and you will see that in the future there is no temple:
(Rev 21:22) I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
And that's a bold-faced lie.
And in spite of their profanity against Him, God will still gather and restore them.
This ought to be good.Second, tell me since you believe that fulfilled, who were the 2 witnesses?
You blithering idiot.Nope, you encourage Israelis and Jews who reject Christ to continue to reject Christ Jesus with statements like the following:
Why would a Jew want to believe in Christ Jesus when you keep telling them that God is going to gather and restore them?
The last chapters of Ezekiel are about the restoration of Israel.
It is not dependent on the shame of Israel. For their shame will come when the restoration happens.
God reminds them of their profanity against Him, and why they were scattered.Ezekiel 36 KJVAnd in spite of their profanity against Him, God will still gather and restore them.
(16) Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
(17) Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
(18) Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it:
(19) And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
(20) And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
God does not do this for the sake of Israel, but does this for HIS own sake.(21) But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.God does not cleanse Israel before he gathers them for their restoration.
(22) Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
(23) And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
And Israel does not realize the depth of their shame before this happens, but after it happens.
In other words, it is not on the merits of Israel that the restoration happens, but is by grace (unmerited favor).(24) For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.Again, God reminds them of why He does this.
(25) Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
(26) A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
(27) And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
(28) And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
(29) I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
(30) And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
(31) Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
Not for the sake of Israel, but for His own sake.(32) Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel."I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it"
(33) Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded.
(34) And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.
(35) And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited.
(36) Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.
(37) Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
(38) As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
I believe Him.
Thats not possible in the description of the temple given in revelation:
First the outer court of Herrods temple was not "given the gentiles"
and since you believe that the same one, tell me when gentiles overran Herrods temple for 42 months, time frame and references please.
Second, tell me since you believe that fulfilled, who were the 2 witnesses?
Jews and Christians alike believe there will be a restoration of Israel
because that is what scripture says.
Even the disciples of Jesus believed it.
And I have never encouraged any Jew to reject Christ, even when the restoration occurs, you filthy liar.
But thanks for giving the link to my post so folks can see the whole story.
Yes it is.
The Gentiles could not go past a certain point in the Outer Court, whereas Jews that were ritually poor could go to the next level.
Don't know. There is no clear consensus who the two witnesses were. Even futurists don't know who the two witnesses will be.
The only surviving writings that we have from 66AD - 70AD that describe the destruction of the temple are those of Josephus, and he makes no mention of two witnesses.
