Fundamentalist Christians in America believe that the Third Temple must be built before the end comes.
The First Temple was built by King Solomon in the 10th Century BCE.
This Temple was destroyed by the invading Babylonians in 586 BCE.
The Second Temple was built by Nehemiah in the 5th Century BCE.
This Temple was destroyed by the occupying Romans in 70 CE.
I believe that the Third Temple is the Old Saint Peter's Basilica which was built in Rome in the 4th Century CE by Emperor Constantine over the tomb of St. Peter.
And as the End Times refers to the end of the ancient world the Third Temple was built shortly before the fall of the Roman Empire.
So it has already happened.
The Third Temple was built and the end came.
