Third Temple

https://x.com/rogue0572/status/2049903878347354397?s=61
When Emperor Julian (the Apostate) had an anti-Christian meltdown, he attempted to rebuild the Jerusalem Temple for the Jews in order to discredit Christianity.

As work began to clear the ruins of the former temple, a terrible earthquake struck, killing several people and setting the project back.

When the workers resumed construction, a mysterious fire burst forth from the ruins, burning several workers to death. The project was eventually abandoned.

This event is corroborated by Jewish, Christian, and pagan sources.

The irony is that those who survived the “holy fire” converted to Christianity on the spot. It was total humiliation for the Jews and pagans.

In short, Julian attempted to “bless Israel,” and God said, “Nope.” Instead, Julian was ran through by a Persian spear.

Julian the Apostate and the Third Temple

In episode 28, I will talk about the false Jewish Messiah, antichrist, Donald Trump, and rebuilding the third temple in modern Israel. This is not the first time in church history where rebuilding the temple was attempted. In the 4th century, Julian the Apostate, the nephew of Constantine, tried to rebuild the third temple and exterminate Christianity.

In this podcast, I will show that there is nothing new under the sun. The exact same trials we face today were already faced by the church in the 4th century. Julian the Apostate sought to persecute the church through public displays of paganism, marginalizing Christianity, heavy taxation, corrupting the public education system, and resurrecting Judaism.

So, we’ll look at the all-encompassing “non-bloody” persecution that the church faced in the 4th century, we’ll see how God himself intervened in his providence, and then we will make a practical application for Christians today. We’ll see that we should not despair at the great trials which we are facing, but neither should we presume upon the grace of God.

This isn’t merely a lesson about church history. This is ultimately a powerful exhortation to humble ourselves before God, to trust in God with fear and trembling, and to pour ourselves out before him in earnest prayer and supplication, knowing that if we are faithful, God will most assuredly hear and answer our prayers…but if we are not, judgement awaits.

Rabbi says, Trump is a gentile Messiah preparing the way for the Jewish Messiah. Who MUST come by October 2nd, 2027. At the very latest. Or the prophecies are wrong. Yikes.

BCHF - Julian's attempt to rebuild the Temple

On this day, 18 Iyar 363 CE, a great earthquake rocked the Levant.
Countless people were killed, and buildings collapsed.
Among the structures destroyed—so it seems—was the Third Jewish Temple, then under construction in Jerusalem at the order of the Roman emperor Julian (“the Apostate”).
The anniversary of the tragedy—so it seems—was marked by Jews through an annual fast day.
Wishing a meaningful day to all those who commemorate it.

Tonight marks the 18th of Iyar according to the Jewish calendar, a date that is widely celebrated as a minor holiday called “Lag Ba‘Omer”. It seems, however, that the date was originally commemorated as a fast day and a time of mourning.
An inscription found on plaster fragments from an internal wall in the Rehov synagogue (dated 5th to 7th century CE) provides a list of fast days. The 18th of Iyar is one such fast day, although no explanation is given for why it should be so.
Several pieces of evidence, however, point to the earthquake which did tremendous damage throughout Palestine in 363 CE as having taken place on the 18th of Iyar.
At the time, the emperor Julian (“the Apostate”) had allowed the Jews to rebuild their temple in Jerusalem, and work on the foundation had already begun. The earthquake appears to have been one of the impediments to the project which eventually was abandoned completely with the death of Julian a few weeks later. It seems likely that the 18th of Iyar was proclaimed a fast day in commemoration of these calamitous events.
How the day of mourning turned into a day of celebration is a story unto itself, but it would take many centuries for this to develop.
For an accessible publication on the list of fast days from the Rehov synagogue wall plaster fragments (an inscription distinct from the mosaic inscription on its floor), see Haggai Misgav's article linked in the first comment (the drawing below comes from there).
