Don't Look For A New Temple In Jerusalem

Jesus departed from the temple area and was going on His way when His disciples came up to Him to call His attention to the buildings of the temple and point them out to Him. But He answered them, Do you see all these? Truly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down. Matthew 24:1-2

Many believe that the Jewish Temple must first be rebuilt before Jesus will return. But Jesus tells us that the Temple in Jerusalem, that has been made with hands, will be completely destroyed, and that temple has been. Jesus never tells us that the Temple must first be rebuilt before He returns. Many however believe that the Jewish Temple must be rebuilt because we are told that the anti-christ will set up his throne in the temple.

Who opposes and exalts himself so proudly and insolently against and over all that is called God or that is worshiped, [even to his actually] taking his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming that he himself is God. 2 Thessalonians 2:4

But the glorious Truth is that man is now the Temple of God, not any building.

What agreement [can there be between] a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 2 Corinthians 6:16

When the anti-christ sets up his throne, it will be in man, not in a building. The anti-christ will not be human, but he will take on the form of man thus setting up his throne in the temple. We are told that he is a being that comes up from the Abyss, Revelation 11:7. So this being is allowed by our Father to take on the form of man, thus setting up his throne in what appears to be the true Temple of our Father, which is man. 

The beast that you saw [once] was, but [now] is no more, and he is going to come up out of the Abyss (the bottomless pit) and proceed to go to perdition. And the inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been recorded in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will be astonished when they look at the beast, because he [once] was, but [now] is no more, and he is [yet] to come. Revelation 17:8

We also know that the anti-christ will not be human because when our Father is done allowing him to rule, he is thrown directly into the Lake of Fire. The anti-christ, or the beast, will never come up for judgment. We are told that all men will be present on Judgment Day, Revelation 20:12-14, but the anti-christ will not be there, he will have been destroyed by the Lake of Fire a thousand years before Judgment Day, Revelation 19:20.
