The <a href=\"https:\/\/templeinstitute.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Temple Institute<\/a> has been collecting the necessary tools and implements for the Temple, but the believed location would require the removal of the Mosques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-42-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18118\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-42-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-42-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-42-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-42.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there is a good theory that it was in another location, and could be built, as the location of the Mosques was within the Roman military compound overlooking Jerusalem. It&#8217;s also believed that with the false peace of Antichrist, he will help facilitate the construction of the new temple in Jerusalem with a return to temple worship. To be the temple of God, it would need to have his throne which was on the Ark of the Covenant that holds the ten commandments, Aaron&#8217;s staff, manna from the wilderness&#8230; with God&#8217;s mercy seat on top. Of course God ended this system with the tearing of the curtain to the Holy of Holies where the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord was held, which the head priest only entered once a year. But is the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord being held somewhere safe until the construction of the new temple? We do have it making an appearance during the tribulation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Revelation 11:19<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[19] Then God\u2019s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple. There were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. (ESV)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it is possible that God has taken it to heaven already, as it&#8217;s no longer needed on the earth, as it is no longer to be God&#8217;s throne with His people Israel? Or was it hidden under Jerusalem before the Romans destroyed the second temple?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-43-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18119\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-43-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-43-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-43-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image-43.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there is some interesting references to the Ark of the Covenant in Jeremiah about it being forgotten and not missed, as Jerusalem will be Christ&#8217;s throne. And the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord will not be built again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Jeremiah 3:15\u201318<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[15] \u201c\u2018And I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.
