I read a comment in another thread. It said "I am the third temple." I know that the third temple is yet to be built in Jerusalem. I also know that we, Christians, are referred to as "the church". I was just wondering if anywhere in the bible we are referred to as the third temple and if not where does this idea come from.

LOL. I wonder where you read that from. Even though our bodies are temples I don't know of any place in the Bible that refers to the church as being "the Third Temple". It will be a literal temple. |

Yes, it is a literal third temple that will be built during the tribulation period. Everything is nearly in place now, and it looks like they found the red heifer mentioned in Numbers 19:2.
They actually discovered this red heifer in an undisclosed place in the U.S. (for security purposes). The people who own it notified the Temple Institute in Israel. The father is a red bull.

Leeza, I read somewhere that it has to be at least 3 years old so no "blemish" of even one white hair is upon it. I didn't watch the video yet but will do that in a little bit. Thanks for posting that.

There are two distinct concepts here.
First, "your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit", which is from 1 Corinthians 6:19-20.
Second, the Third Temple itself, which is unrelated, and will be built by the Jews in unbelief. It has no relation to the Church, particularly given that it's a temple that will exist almost solely during the Tribulation, for which we will not be here.

Thanks Benjamin, That explains it well. After doing some research on the internet, it looks like the belief, that a person can be the third temple, comes from the Bahá'í Faith. And from what I read, this faith uses some Christian concepts but it is defiantly not a Christian faith.
