John 2:19 (NIV)
19Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."
We are living temples of God’s presence. The one made by human hands no longer served a purpose, for the new one was built by Jesus in three days.
There the AntiChrist appears and will appear. The abomination and desecration take place in that sacred place: the heart. That is the mark of the beast.
Hey, that's quite an insight! I'd put that in first place when it comes to priorities. If the Beast then also goes to a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem, that's just a symbolic act. The important infestation is in our hearts.
