The selection was made as a precaution for Yom Kippur. If the political conditions should change, allowing the Jews access to the Temple Mount, they will be required by Torah law to bring the sacrifices. Rabbi Kahane is confident that if that should happen, Temple service could begin in less than one week. &#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Rabbi\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.breakingisraelnews.com\/71637\/sanhedrin-declares-jubilee-third-arrival-jews-israel\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hillel Weiss<\/a>, spokesman for the nascent Sanhedrin, explained to\u00a0<em>Breaking Israel News<\/em>\u00a0the necessity for choosing a High Priest, even in the absence of a Temple.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe do not need a miraculous occurrence like the sudden appearance of a Temple descending from heaven onto the Temple Mount to make this decision relevant,\u201d explained Rabbi Weiss. \u201cThe only obstacle preventing the Temple service today is the political issue. If that should suddenly change, as it very well could, we would be required to begin the Temple service immediately. It is therefore necessary that we have a candidate prepared to fill the role of the High Priest, especially now that we have\u00a0<em>kohanim\u00a0<\/em>prepared to serve in the Temple.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, founder and and head of the Temple Institute, is a member of the Sanhedrin but did not rule in this decision. He told\u00a0<em>Breaking Israel News<\/em>\u00a0that it was necessary for the Sanhedrin to choose a\u00a0<em>Kohen Gadol<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is certainly something we should do now as religious Jews. Choosing a high priest and all of the preparations for the Temple Service \u00a0are\u00a0<em>mitzvot\u00a0<\/em>(commandments) that are incumbent upon us according to the Torah,\u201d said Rabbi Ariel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not a matter of opinion. It is written explicitly in the Torah and, just like any of the other mitzvot written in the Torah, we have to choose a\u00a0<em>Kohen Gadol<\/em>, and make all the preparations, regardless of whether there is a Temple standing right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rabbi Kahane was reluctant to discuss the Sanhedrin\u2019s decision. \u201cThis may not be the time to choose a<em>\u00a0Kohen Gadol<\/em>. There are no sacrifices required,\u201d he said to\u00a0<em>Breaking Israel News<\/em>. However, he added, \u201cThat could change overnight. In any case, it is clear that we need to be prepared, to prepare the priests, to have everything ready.\u201dWhen asked how long it would take to begin sacrifices if it suddenly became permissible, he considered carefully before answering. \u201cIf the government decided to permit it, it would only take a few weeks to make preparations, even to do the Yom Kippur service,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe structures can be temporary and prepared almost overnight. The biggest obstacle is educating the\u00a0<em>kohanim<\/em>, which we are taking care of already. Once the priests are thoroughly educated, choosing a\u00a0<em>Kohen Gadol\u00a0<\/em>and teaching him what he needs to know for the Yom Kippur service is relatively simple and will take one week. The Temple Service performed by the\u00a0<em>Kohen Gadol<\/em>\u00a0is very demanding, but for an educated\u00a0<em>kohen<\/em>, it is not overly difficult to learn to serve as the\u00a0<em>Kohen Gadol<\/em>.\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breakingisraelnews.com\/74772\/sanhedrin-appoints-high-priest-preparation-third-temple\/#WcWzLT3VTm3z6YAg.97\">http:\/\/www.breakingisraelnews.com\/74772\/sanhedrin-appoints-high-priest-preparation-third-temple\/#Z0wDkBiyq6Eexf4Z.99<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, I should state that the reconstituted, nascent, Sanhedrin, does NOT have universal acceptance in Israel.\u00a0 But it does have allies and the Bible teaches that in the end times, the King of the North will stop those sacrifices (cf.

But we may instruct them and teach them how to perform sacrificesto the ASlmighty God, Blessed be He.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it is worth noting that on 5766, Rabbi Benyamin Fuss published a 445 page book on Sacrifices of non-jews, of which the text proper is of 372 pages [the rest are indices, etc.] called Torat Habamah: Regarding sacrifices on an Altar outside the Temple.

And yes, some members of a &#8216;Levitical priesthood&#8217; would be expected to be involved.<\/p>\n<p>And getting that permission is not impossible.<\/p>\n<p>The Temple Institute already has a moveable altar, etc. needed to resume the animal sacrifices.<\/p>\n<p>Notice something that the late <a href=\"\/herbertwarmstrong.htm\">Herbert W. Armstrong<\/a> wrote about the temple:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;And are built upon the foundation of the apostles [New Testament] and prophets [Old Testament], Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy TEMPLE in the Lord&#8221; (verses 20-21). So God reveals here that the Church is: 1) the HOUSEHOLD or begotten FAMILY of God; 2) a building\u2014a HOLY TEMPLE\u2014fitly joined together\u2014that is, well organized (and, of course, on GOD&#8217;S pattern). As a building\u2014the HOLY TEMPLE to which Christ will come\u2014it is built on a FIRM FOUNDATION: the apostles, chosen by Christ, and the prophets. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>There has been much perplexity and discussion as to when the temple will be built to which Christ shall come. Malachi&#8217;s prophecy speaks of Christ&#8217;s second coming to His temple (Malachi 3:1-6). In Haggai&#8217;s prophecy it is referred to prophetically. Zerubbabel has been sent as governor of a colony to build the second temple 70 years after the destruction of Solomon&#8217;s temple. He built the temple to which Jesus came, though it had been enlarged and embellished by the Roman Herod. But speaking of this temple, as a type and forerunner of the temple to which Christ shall come at His second coming , it is written, &#8220;The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the &#8216; Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts&#8221; (Haggai 2:9).<\/p>\n<p>It is inconceivable that the Israelis, in the present international turmoil over their possession of old Jerusalem, could ever demolish the Arab Moslem Dome of the Rock &#8211; now on the site of Solomon&#8217;s temple-and build a new one there of greater splendor and glory than Solomon&#8217;s! However, as the second temple Zerubbabel was building was a typical forerunner of the temple to which Christ shall come, even so Zerubbabel was the typical forerunner of one Christ would use in building the far more glorious temple to, which Christ shall come in His GLORY!<\/p>\n<p>Zechariah 4:9 : &#8220;The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it . . .. &#8221; And as Zerubbabel&#8217;s hands <em>did<\/em> finish that second temple, so shall the one Christ uses in building the temple to which He shall come in His GLORY!<\/p>\n<p>And the Church of God of the present day shall be a &#8220;building fitly framed together [and growing] unto an holy temple in the Lord&#8221; (Ephesians 2:21). (Armstrong HW. 7 Proofs of God&#8217;s True Church, Part 6. Plain Truth. August, 1979, p. 38)<\/p>\n<p>Many of us are being tried and tested as NEVER BEFORE&#8211;and for our own good! But, verse 11, &#8220;from the time the daily sacrifice shall be taken away &#8230;.Consider this a moment. This does NOT imply a material temple to be built in our time in Jerusalem. It does seem to imply the Israelis may restore the daily (twice daily) sacrifice&#8211;possibly at the wailing wall. (Armstrong HW. The Time We Are In, Now. Pastor General&#8217;s Report-Vol 1, No. 15, November 20, 1979, Page 2)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Various ones who profess Christ have misunderstood about the temple in the church age.<\/p>\n<p>Christians are the temple of God according to the New Testament.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, various ones who claim to be part of the Church of God have taken a different position. There has been a trend among various groups (e.g. <a href=\"\/cbcg.htm\">CBCG<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/rcg.htm\">RCG<\/a>, COGFF, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/triumph.htm\">TPM<\/a>) to teach that a third temple is required.<\/p>\n<p>Notice also, the following was in an advertisement from Don Billingsley of COGFF. It was found in the <em>Connections<\/em>&#8216; section of <em>The Journal: News of the Churches of God<\/em> in 2014:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>The Construction of the Third Temple:<\/em><\/strong> Similar to King David, who stockpiled materials for the First Temple (<em>I Chronicles 28:2<\/em>), so have the Jews stockpiled materials for the building of the third Temple. However, considering the entirety of the Arab nations ready to do an all-out battle with Israel at their first move, virtually anyone would say this is ludicrous to even believe such a thing could possibly take place! And it would be\u2013<em> except for God being in the picture!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Scriptures are very clear! This will indeed take place\u2014and sooner than one might care to think! Most do not realize that Jesus Christ has a Master Plan with a Timetable in place. And, realizing that He rules in the kingdoms and nations of mankind, all these nations put together will be unable to stop His Plan from going forward\u2014according to God\u2019s timing. And nothing escapes His attention that would stand in the way of these prophecies taking place.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The above shows that COGFF is not a group that properly understands the Bible or certain aspects of biblical prophecy. COGFF, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/rcg.htm\">RCG<\/a>, is also a group that claims it is faithful to what the late <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/herbertwarmstrong.htm\">Herbert Armstrong<\/a> taught.
