You still ignore the fact that the temple has yet to be rebuilt.
ETA: This is the wrong forum. Why post it here?

I must disagree with you. The temple hasn't even been built yet. We cannot have the Abomination without a temple in which it can take place. I do agree with the war starting soon though. It seems as though the Gog-Magog way of Ezekiel 38 could start any day.
11 And from the time [that] the daily [sacrifice] shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, [there shall be] a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
How can the abomination be in a holy place that is already torn down? It must be rebuilt first.
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation (spoken of by Daniel the prophet,) stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand

Ahah, you are of the majority opinion, as promalgated by Hagee, Lindsey, Rosenberg, Van Impe and others. I can take your argument apart one piece at a time.
No temple will be rebuilt. First of all, the Arabs will not allow it. Secondly, Jesus fulfilled the first 3 1/2 years of Daniel's 70th week.
As for the Ezekiel 38 Gog and Magog invasion....that doesn't happen till after the 1000 year millennium. Read Revelation 20. When Satan is loosed after being bound for 1000 years, then will happen Ezek. 38. Not now. Read Ezek 38 carefully. It speaks of Israel being at peace will all her neighbors and having no walls or borders. Certainly not the case now.
We are on the verge of the abomination as described by Jesus in Luke 21. Armies of mobs surrounding Jersusalem leading to the city being downtrodden as also described in Daniel 8
Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.

Most scholars of dispensational eschotolgy teach that the abomination of desolation occurs when the anti-christ (likely the leader of a world or EU type government) enters the temple and declares himself God, in the MIDDLE of the 7 year tribulation. The Tribulation starts around the time of a 7 year treaty between the AntiChrist and his government and Isreal.
I suppose if said war starts this week, then you could see a leader arise and a treaty shortly after. BUT based on premillenial dispensationalism, under your theory, Christ would not return until 7 years after this weekend (give or take, I don't like date setting HIS return). Which puts us at sometime in 2020 or so.
Just my thoughts. Dispensationalism could also be wrong, although I personally subscribe to it, for the most part.
You have enough posts. Just restart this topic in the religious section. I will refrain from any further discussion here, since this will likely get 404'd soon.

That makes no sense. Consider the very last verse of Ezekiel 38
Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
With your scenario, we just spent 1000 years under the direct rule of the Lord. Everyone would already KNOW that he is Lord, why would he need to prove it? Gog is not Satan. The war you refer to is after Satan is released from the pit after 1,000 years in captivity there.
