There may be a difference between saying "I'm thirsty" and actively
promoting what must be called false worship, don't you agree?
Also, there is a bit of difference here. Jesus *knew* what the
prophecies meant. You only base your idea about a restoration of the
temple worship on a human interpretation, which can be faulty like
every other persons' interpretation. If your interpretation is wrong
(and it is <g>), you are promoting a denial of Christ.
I perfectly well know that this sport of applying random OT texts to
present day conditions as "prophecies" is popular. Nothing good will
ever come from it. Only a new set of failed expectations.
Cheers,
