From the time OF the destruction Of
the Temple OF Herod, and to the present
century there were no temples ON earth,
except those which were built on this
continent and OF which we have but
little Information. The first Christians
were not temple. builders. They never
gathered as one people. We have seen
that the temple was TO the Jewish nation
the palace OF their invisible, divine
King. But when the nation was scat
tered there was no need Of a palace.
Hence, the Christians, who formed no
nation, did not build temples.
The magnificent religious buildings
that were reared In latter centuries and
which now adorn the great Christian
strongholds are not temples, not even
limitations OF them. They are the sue.
cessors OF the Jewish synagogues and
nothing more. With the temple OF Herod
the history Of the sacred edificcs Is inter-
rupted for more than seventeen hundred
years.
The ancient prophets declare, In no
uncertain language, that the last dispen-
Stations should again be characterized by
the rearing of temples. II Is a mistake
to suppose that these structures were
reared in the Mosaic dspensation only
In connection with the ceremonial law OF
sacrifices, and that they were no longer
needed, when that law was completed in
the sacrifice OF Christ. Sacrifices were
offered on affairs and not within the
temple walls, but In the court. The
affairs OF burnt.oilering aud the temples
were entirely separate buildings. The
sacrifice OF Christ did not do away with
temples any more than Il abolished the
law OF prayer or the Priesthood.
This Is clear from the fact that Ezekiel,
in describing the glory Of the last dis.
pensaiion Chapters 4o.4il gives aglowing
view OF a temple with is ordinances, and
the return OF the glory Of God as in the
days OF old. II is temple TO be reared
when the land Of Canaan Is finally dis.
tributed according to the plan explained
in chapter xiv. II is, therefore, still
future, but will come 10 pass as sure as
Ezekiel was a prophet Of the living God.
John, the Reyela,or, too IN his vision OF
the last days, the days before the sound.
ing OF the seventh angels trumpet, which
was the signal OF the winding up of the
scenes, sees a temple, for he Is com
manded to measure the temple of God
and those that worship therein tRev II,
y, which would have been impossible
had there been no temple to measure,
This shows conclusively that the temple
era belongs to these last days as well as
to the former dispensations.
The Temple Site Ia Independence.
As soon as the Church OF Jesus Christ
of l.atter.day Saints had been organized
the Lord in His revelations commenced
to intimate that temple would be
erected In a revelation given In De.
cember, 1890, He says: ~ will suddenly
come to my temple" And again IN
February, 'S5i; ma, my covenant nam
day when shall come TO nv temple"
A place was pointed out by God a few
months later, or In July the same year,
that should be dedicated as temple
site. The Lord said
