Of course, [[Christianity|Christians]] believe that [[Jesus]] ''was'' the [[Messiah]], and many - like [[Augustine]] - equate the "Third Temple" with the metaphorical City of God, which endures forever.<ref>Augustine, City of God.</ref>
Of course, [[Christianity|Christians]] believe that [[Jesus]] ''was'' the [[Messiah]], and many - like [[Augustine]] - equate the "Third Temple" with the metaphorical City of God, which endures forever.<ref>Augustine, City of God.</ref>. However, this metaphorical prophetic interpretation is very much held within [[Amillennialism]].
Many Christians who believe in [[Premillennialism]] believe that the third temple will be rebuilt at some point in the future. Prophecy teachers such as [[Tim Lahaye]] consider that the seven year peace contract made between the Antichrist and Israel, will grant the jews the right to reconstruct the temple. Some teach that it could be built adjacent to the [[Dome of the Rock]].
