Zechariah 6:13 refers to a temple ON EARTH not in heaven. No temple has to be built IN HEAVEN. His reign is where his temple is and that is ON EARTH and he does not come to reign on his throne ON EARTH until Matthew 25:31.

Zechariah 6:13 refers to a temple ON EARTH not in heaven. No temple has to be built IN HEAVEN. His reign is where his temple is and that is ON EARTH and he does not come to reign on his throne ON EARTH until Matthew 25:31.
We accept the Biblical truth that Christ is now in heaven "sitting at the right hand of the Father" but the reason he is still in heaven is because He has yet to take back the RULE ON EARTH which was lost by Adam. NOW Satan is regarded as the GOD OF THIS WORLD and the WORLD is under his domain. Christ returns from heaven as KING of Kings and LORD of Lord's OVER THIS EARTH as the rightful king to RULE OVER THIS EARTH and that is the "regeneration" Matthew 19:28 refers to and that is the "throne" ON EARTH he sits upon in Matthew 25:31.
The only rule by Christ from heaven is over HIS KINGDOM on earth which rule is through the indwelling Spirit of Christ. He is not ruling over THIS WORLD yet as Satan still rules over it. The throne of his glory in Matthew 25:31 is the rule over THIS WORLD and that is yet future.
Until he sits upon "HIS THRONE" on earth as described in Matthew 25:31 this world is still being ruled over by the usurper and Christ as the SECOND ADAM has not assumed the throne described in Matthew 25:31.
You cannot deal with the future throne on earth described by Matthew 25:31 and so you pit scripture against that scripture proving your interpretation is false as the right interpretation harmonizes both and my interpretation harmonizes both whereas you cannot deal with Matthew 25:31 and that throne ON EARTH.

I know what Temple it refers to ! The Point is, It is Christ building the Temple as He sits upon His Throne in Heaven !
But scripture does say this Zech 6:13
13 Even he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
The Temple of the Lord being built here is this One Eph 2:21
In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
But since you brought it up, I have yet to see a scripture that states:
You care to provide one ?

is jesus sitting upon his throne in jerusalem right now?
Again you are confusing Christ reigning from heaven over his SPIRITUAL kingdom on earth with Christ reigning OVER THIS WORLD as the Second Adam and that is what Matthew 19:28 and 25:31 both refer to.
This present world and its kingdoms are ruled over by Satan and will be until he comes IN POWER and IN GLORY and "sits upon the throne of His glory" ON EARTH as KING of kings and LORD of Lord's - Mt. 25:31.
"There has only been ONE WAY from Genesis 3:15 to Revelation 14:6 and only ONE GOSPEL. The same way prior to Pentecost (Mt. 7:13-14; Jn. 14:6; Acts 2:43) is the same way after Pentecost (Acts 4:12) as the same gospel was preached unto them as well as unto us (Heb. 4:2).
"The New and Living way is a phrase that contrasts the OLD TESTAMENT TYPE as seen in the Tabernacle/Temple with the New Testament antitype - the cross. That is a matter of type fulfilled by antitype."
PLEASE differentiate between "way" from "Gospel" for me.
"Jesus knew that he was establishing a NEW "religion", as His death ushered in a new era of God dealing with man!"
THEN WHY did Jesus teach that (the writings of) Moses and the Prophets were sufficient for salvation in the parable of Rich and Laz?
WHY did Jesus say that people who rejected Moses would not believe (in) a person who returned from the dead?

ANYWAY, Dispensationalists and half of the Reformed believers obviously think there are two "ways" and two "gospels." Either there are two ways and gospels or all non-Christians are going to Hell.
Are all practicing Jews going to Hell? If all practicing Jews are going to Hell then why do "True Believers" make such a big deal out of Israel and the Temple?????????????????????
