Doesn't matter.
Revelation 11:19
And the
temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament:
Nor is it a prophesy. It simply states what was seen and heard!
If they were believers they should believe what it says.
That is another discussion. The verse does not say natural disaster. In fact the verse starts out clearly in heaven. Any voices or thunderings and light show would not be any such foolish thing as a disaster of any kind. In fact after that an angel comes out of that temple! Then after that another angel comes out! The first one had a sickle so that was to use on the earth. It looks like I would guess then, that the voices and light show etc in the temple was God preparing to judge the world and angels being called etc etc!
Then we see that AFTER this, more angels come out of a temple in heaven with judgments for earth as well. This places that first temple and it's voices etc still in heaven. The great earthquake in the very end on earth is after the seven angels deliver the wrath of God! The scene in Rev is before they even leave heaven! And remember the lightnings etc was in the scene before and even before the 2 angels came out!
False. If God has a temple in heaven for the ark that contains the ark you cannot say it has no importance.
It is a simple matter of believing.
Which is why I asked someone on the thread (you?) a while ago about other key things in the bible, to illustrate that the spirit of unbelief carries over to all they read in the bible!!!
For example do you believe in a real Eve created from a man made by God in six real days of creation? Yes or no? That is like a litmus test.
