The Third Temple and the third world war
Islam and Rome is preparing for an International Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Her from the Popes visit in may 2009.
Israeli Muslims seem to take the possible building of the Third Temple in Jerusalem much more seriously than the nation’s Jews. This became a hot-button issue with the reconstruction of the Hurva Synagogue in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City, which Israeli Arabs and Palestinians saw as a sign that the Jews are planning to rebuild the Temple.
Muslim politicians and clerics issued dire warnings:
From their point of view, the Third Temple is a recipe for the Third World War.
The Temple Mount is the focal point of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As the site of the two biblical Temples it is the holiest place in Judaism, and Muslims claim it as the third holiest place in Islam. It represents the clash between two revelations, the Bible and the Koran, and between Jewish and Muslim nationalism.
To analyze this «clash of civilizations» Israel Today conducted a series of interviews with Israeli Jews and Arabs.

My comment:
The Evangelical Christian World is of three different opinions about a possible Third temple in Jerusalem. Jesus said that all believers is the Temple of God, our body is where the the Holy Spirit dwells. God of the Bible do no longer dwell in a man made Temple.
Other claims that since the majority of the Jewish people have rejected jesus as the Messiah, they are not bound of His words about the temple. Non-Messianic Jews will therefor rebuild the temple, as mentioned in the book of Ezekiel.
A Third view is the the Temple is already there on The Temple Mount. The Temple just needs to be redone as the «Temple of all faiths». Than it will become the perfect dwelling place for the last anti-Messiah.
I hold on to tho this view. If a new Jewish temple is build on The Temple Mount, people of other faiths than Judaism will not be allowed to worship on the site. An antichrist will not even fool non-religious Jews, if he enters such a Temple as an Orthodox Jew claiming to be God. But a «Temple of all faiths» will probably unite people from all major religions, Islam, Christianity and Judaism alike. That will be the perfect stage for the final antichrist, a man who will come to bring «peace», doing miracles and wonders.
