Acts 7:48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
Acts 7:49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?

2 Co 5:1 1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

John 8:23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The Kindgom of God, the temple, the true church is a spiritual place…not a physical literal place.

God cannot be worshipped in the flesh as people in the churches do, but in spirit and in truth!

What does God say about the temples?

Matthew 24:1-3

1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 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.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

Jesus is talking about the end of the world and uses the temples as an example of the destruction. Hmmm..why would He of done that?

Speaking of the end, what does God say will happen before the end comes?

2 Th 2:3-4

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first (The churches falling away from the Bible and truth), and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (Man of sin is Satan)
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. (Satan is in the Churches showing himself as God)

Matthew 24:14-16

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. (Family Radio worldwide?)
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation (Satan in the churches, going against God’s word), spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea (Referring to the True Believers, the elect) flee into the mountains: (To Christ, the Bible)

Read all of Matthew 24, Jesus warned us of false prophets and false Gods arising towards the end…and we are towards the end my friends!

Where does God say judgment will begin?

1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: (The churches!) and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

A Divided House WILL NOT STAND!

Matthew 12:25-26

25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?

We see that division today in Churches, Jesus says that a divided house will not stand, meaning they are desolate (God cannot be found there)! Also, another indicator that Satan is in the churches, because Satan has divided against himself and his Kingdom WILL NOT STAND. Satan showing signs and wonders in most churches. People feel a power for sure, IT IS NOT OF GOD!

BEWARE OF THE LEAVEN!

Mt 16:6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Mt 16:11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
Mt 16:12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Mr 8:15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.

The leaven is referring to false doctrine, We see it everywhere! Even if it’s just a little bit of a false doctrine…what does God say about a little leaven (false doctrine)?

1Co 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
Ga 5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

Meaning if you have just a little bit of leaven (false doctrine) it makes it all a false doctrine!!! It’s either all the Truth OR all a LIE!!! Meaning you are following and worshipping God… I am the way, the truth, and the life…(John 14:6) OR you are following and worshipping Satan, the Father of Lies (John 8:44)!!!

BEWARE OF THE LEAVEN!!!

God is no longer in the Churches!!!!! BEWARE!

God sends a strong delusion!

2 Th 2:7-12

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Who are we to believe? Who is the authority? Do we trust the churches, the teachings of Men? Or is our authority the Bible, THE ALMIGHTY WORD OF GOD?

That’s the question!!

The opening verses of Mathew 24 are a clear indicator that Christ was not speaking about a physical temple, but was really speaking about the spiritual temple. Understanding this, is the crux of the matter, i believe, as the Holy Spirit guides us into all truth as we compare spiritual things with spiritual (scripture with scripture) as defined in 1 Corinthians 2:13:

(1 Corinthians 2:13) Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

The Bible says the words were sealed, so there is not a clear verse, but here are some verses that i believe, present a clear picture. Of course, only God can reveal His spiritual truth to us:

(2 Thessalonians 2:3, 4) Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

(1 Corinthians 3:17) If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

(Ephesians 2:20-22) And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone]; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

(Revelation 18:2-4) And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

(Matthew 11:28, 29) Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

(Isaiah 57:20, 21) But the wicked [are] like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. [There is] no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.

(Daniel 12:8-10) And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what [shall be] the end of these [things]? And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words [are] closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

(Matthew 24:15) When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

(Matthew 12:25) And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:

(Revelation 14:6-8) And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
