When He said not one stone would be left.upon another that was the physical.temple.
He was referring to His body also as you alude to.
As a Preterist your savy with symbolism, however it's not acceptable when it opposes your teaching?

The temple in the spiritual was destroyed at the death of Jesus, the veil in the holy place was rent, and It was replaced by the temple of his body

In Love, Jesus Is The Lord

John 2:18-22KJV
18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them;
and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

Paul wrote to those people and they knew him then.
Your claim is in error, Paul wrote of a "future" wicked man, that would be destroyed by the Lords brightness at his second coming

2 Thessalonians 2:8KJV
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:

The temple was destroyed as Jesus said. Your house is left desolate.
It cannot happen now.There is no earthly Holy Place.

As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.
“Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
Matt 24:3

The temple in Jerusalem was destroyed, just as you quoted - 'their house left desolate.'

There is a Temple of God on earth - right now. Do you know where it is?

Jesus was speaking symbolically of the temple in his body, not a literal temple in Jerusalem

When Jesus died, the veil in the temple was torn from top to bottom, the temple was destroyed "Gone"

In John 2: 20 -22 Jesus is speaking of His Body
In Matt 24 Jesus was speaking of the actual physical building/temple.

At first place, the battle will be against the Beast of the Sea - the Papacy and the woman which rides upon him - the universal Roman Catholic Church - and ONE of his 7 HEADS will be wounded to death by a sharp Sword-the Word of GOD-the Word is GOD-, but first, the present Pope must die, yeah, must die soon, and the battle will be against the next Pope, his nickname may be Paul VII, the battle will be for 42 months, afterwards the Abomination of Desolation will come for more/another half week more 30 days(1.290 days), actually that will happen until the consumation.

Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. Dan.12:v.12 - Here the END of the DEVIL'S WORLD.

What prevails is the Word of GOD. The Word is GOD, understand?

Wake up, get up fast.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:v.9 to12

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

Revelation 9:v.18 to 21

18 By these three plagues was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.

20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these three plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship (1st) devils, and(2nd) idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: - they are the Beast-the Papacy, and the woman-the Roman Catholic Church-which rides upon the Beast.

21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

Revelation 13:v.6 and 5;7-9
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against GOD , to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
(Yeah, they -the Papacy and their followers - will blaspheme terribly against our Lord GOD)


5 And there was given unto him -to the Pope-the Beast of sea- a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. (1st half of the last week-Rev.11:2)

7 And it was given unto him to make WAR with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. (I am already fighting by a sharp Sword against that MONSTER having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. In fact, they all will be cast into the lake of fire by the Word of GOD. I do not know word more powerful than the Word of GOD that fulfill LITERALLY)

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him -the Beast-, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.


9 If any man have an ear, let him hear. (Are you hearing?)

I am leaning towards this: the head wound by the sword has already taken place against the Vatican/papacy.

And it has healed and the world currently marvels at her.

The temple was destroyed as Jesus said. Your house is left desolate.
It cannot happen now.There is no earthly Holy Place.
Matthew 25:31

"When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:"

Not yet. And this time it will never be destroyed. History proves that the Cross was the end of the OT age, and that temple was destroyed and put back in 3 days, just as Jesus said. Jesus did not say the next Temple would be destroyed. He said the desolate temple, made so by the Cross, would be destroyed.

Jesus claims there will be another physical temple, this time with a throne, instead of the Holy of Holies. It will not be destroyed, but the future Temple will be surrounded by armies, and be made desolate, with an AoD. Most just want to assume Jesus was talking about 70AD, instead of facing a future event. An event that would happen only after the gospel is taking to all the ends of the earth. An event after the fulness of the Gentiles, not 40 years into the fulness of the Gentiles. The fulness of the Gentiles is still ongoing. What early church father declared that Gentiles could no longer be included in the Atonement of the Cross? That the end of the church age was over?

Friend I understand and agree with this passage.
It is not either or,but both .

Not sure you’re really getting what I’m saying.
I actually DO think it will see a future fulfilment. The NT, especially Paul and John, point to that.
I just think its also valid to say that it ALSO has multiple fulfilments. One past, one future. Both would have been future for Daniel…and he may have only seen one. We know the prophets often didn’t quite understand what they saw for various reasons…prophetic foreshortening for one. The did not foresee two seperate comings of Messiah either…what they saw looked like one coming.
All that to say…yes, future. But that does NOT discount past fulfilments that were foreshadowing events.
This would mean Daniel saw 3 events.

Antiochus Epiphanies is the first.

Preterist see 70AD as the second.

There is still a future where Christ sets up a throne in a temple. That temple and throne are made desolate.

Daniel 9:26 shows the destruction and desolation because Jerusalem ceased to exist as inhabited for years. This 70AD event was neither Antiochus Epiphanies nor the future temple at the Second Coming.

Jesus was warning about the future one at the Second Coming. But the warning was still applied to 66AD, even though Jesus was not talking about 70AD.

The error of Preterist is claiming the OD was only about 70AD. It was only about the Second Coming.

Not local churches as they are buildings as well - but the Sanctified Elect of God - You, me and all who are His.

As you know the buildings are called churches is in error - they are just buildings.

You know this Scripture - Where is the house you will build for ME.....

In John 2: 20 -22 Jesus is speaking of His Body
In Matt 24 Jesus was speaking of the actual physical building/temple.
I disagree, John 2 is explaining the Matthew 24 event, his disciples remembered what he said

A symbolic destruction

Jesus rules from the Heavenly Jerusalem hebrews12:22:29.
There is no Holy place on earth since the once for all time sacrifice was completed. Hebrews10:10-14
Jesus certainly rules from Paradise. Not what Jesus was talking about.

Certainly you do not see Satan taking over Paradise, and making heaven desolate. Yet that is what you are insinuating, by stating the heavenly city and throne is what is made desolate.

So you believe that John 2 (the death of His Body = God's Holy Temple) is the exact same meaning given in Matt 24: 1-2

Today is a new day - yesterday is gone - today we live for Christ - love

The earthly Temple and Jerusalem were made desolate.
I did not mention Satan or paradise.

Local churches are not physical buildings.
We are living stones built together by God.
I did not speak of buildings.
I cor 3 does not mention buildings.
