    I would only add that it would be possible to "lose your salvation"
    during the Tribulation if you take the "mark of the beast".

    I am beginning to think that those who "refuse the mark" will be viewed
    by others worse than the Jews were viewed by the NAZI's in Germany.

    And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. ["end" of his life] - Mt 10:22
    Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. - Mt 24:9

    This string is showing all the signs of having been Hijacked and it is, for that reason, that this post is going to be ignored but here goes.

    The Mississippi Baptist Preacher that baptized and grounded me in the ministry later became a Missionary and was posted on the field in Israel. Brother Clark was at the site of the dig that was so despised and protested under the Dome of the Rock On that night the Ark of the Covenant was removed from the Holy of Holies, from underground. Brother Clark reported that the Ark was then moved to the storage area that contains all the precut stones, clothing and other artifacs for rebuilding the Temple.

    I'm not disputing your testimony (I can't -- wasn't there) but I do wonder if the "Holy of Holies" was truly discovered if God would still have in force His ancient decree about whom and when an individual could enter that room without certain death. Seems like the Levitical Law would still be in force for that. Your thoughts are welcome!

    Iḿ in a wheel chair, motorized, and Jerusalem is a long way off! And, to my knowledge, there is not a web site. Bro. Richard did not write a book, he is a Missionary, not a philanthropist.

    Great question! I had never considered that aspect but, in light of Mal. 3:6a, it seems certain to me that only the Priests would be allowed inside. That is a point not covered by Richard in his report. I have, since, lost contact and he is still on the field and Iĺl not be able to ask.

    What I do know is that without the ash of the Red Heifer the Temple worship cannot resume but,soon after Bro. Richard reported this event, there were a group of Fundamental Jewish men that purchased an entire herd, not sure of the number, of Red Cows and Bulls and shipped them to Israel. Without the ashes of the original to mingle with the new ashes they cannot be used and to me that tends to lend credit to the report.

    I´ve been told there are still Levital Priests among the Fundamentalists and it would seem to me that they would have been the only one´s allowed to enter, without being struck dead. Great point.

    As a servant of the LORD i'm not trying to be snippy but the single most important, personal, tool at my or any other minister's disposal and particularly true of a Pastor is keen observation. Why do I say that? In my first post I gave brother Richard Clark's last name and have since called him by his given name.

    It was reported a few years ago that the ashes of the red heifer HAD indeed been found. I believe it was in a Christian magazine publication.

    The ashes of the red Heifer were found in the Ark???

    According to the Bible there were three items that were to be placed in the ark

    The Ten Commands

    Aaron's Rod

    A bowl of Manna

    I think the ark, like everything else God does not want us to find, is hidden somewhere preserved as no corrupt hands do not get a hold of it and will be revealed to us when Jesus comes. Eden and everything else will be visible to us when we get to live in Christ's kingdom.

    A great idea Christie, but without the ashes and the Ark there can be not Temple Worship and that is to be practiced for the first three and a half years of the Tribulation, if we are to believe the scriptures and Jesus doesn't set foot on the Earth until the end of that period.

    Ashes? Perhaps. Ark? I think not. They had no ark from the time of the Babylonian conquest until 70 A.D. but they certainly had temple worship during most of that time. Like many others, I really hope the ark is found and placed in a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. But it is not the sine qua non of temple worship.

    The only place I would think is in Ethiopia. Those folks claim to have it anyway.
