What will the Antichrist stop at the temple?
The Antichrist will stop any kind of Jewish worship at the temple. He will defile the temple, end Jewish worship, and demand that he himself be worshiped as God. This occurs at the midpoint of the final seven years, triggering the last three-and-a-half years.
Les teaches that when the midpoint of the final seven years arrives, and Israel has enjoined temple worship, the Antichrist will move from his headquarters somewhere in Europe—whether Rome, Brussels, or wherever—and come to the temple. There he will defile it, immediately stop any kind of Jewish worship, and demand that he himself be worshiped as God. That act triggers the final three-and-a-half years.
