The Plan

Duration: 365 days

Prophecy Thread of Week 31

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary Definition of Truth:
Conformity to fact or reality; exact accordance with that which is, or has been, or shall be. The truth of history constitutes its whole value. We rely on the truth of the scriptural prophecies.

THE LORD'S NAME AT THE TEMPLE FOREVER

Some prophecy appears at first look to be contradictory. When one digs deeper into prophecy, one realizes that God sees the beginning from the end. We only see one percent of His plan, if we live to a full age. This thread states His name will be at the temple forever. This is a literal truth: First at Solomon’s temple, in the future there will be a new temple bearing His name for a 1,000 years, after that God and Jesus will rule from Jerusalem, forever, as the temple.

PROMISED

THE LORD APPEARS TO SOLOMON

992 BC (U)

2Ch 7:16 I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.

MANASSEH’S EVIL LIFE

696-641 BC, 698-643 BC (U)

2Ch 33:4 He built altars in the temple of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever.”

WILL BE FULFILLED

MILLENNIAL TEMPLE BUILT

ONE THOUSAND YEAR REIGN

Eze 37:26c …and I will put my sanctuary among them forever.

GOD THE FATHER AND JESUS ARE THE TEMPLE

ETERNAL AGES TO COME

Rev 21:22 I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.

Prophecies declared are in blue, prophecies fulfilled are in red, prophecies currently being fulfilled are in green, and prophecies to be fulfilled are in orange. Bold historical context dates are from Jeff Swanson's The Plan dating system, and dates marked (U) are Archbishop Ussher's 1658 dating system.
** The date of this prophecy is in its referential context: the verse has been moved to the time frame of its contextual orientation.
