Tina,

I'm not sure it's going to happen that way. I don't think the temple has
to be built prior to the Rapture. In fact, my sense is that it is one of
the "goodies" the AC is going to give Israel to win them over during the
chaos after the Rapture. Also, it may be awhile. I don't see a time
period anywhere between the re-building of the temple and the end of the
3-1/2 years when the AC defiles it.
Technically, the temple worship could be in full swing for only a short
time before the abomination of desolation occurs although I would expect
it will be much longer. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Yours in Jesus,
Brad
