Temples Left Standing

 I was studying in section 93 this morning. I realized that when Jesus prophesied that not one stone of the temple would be left standing, it was a layered prophecy.

 In this section we learn the elements are the tabernacle of man and that man is the tabernacle of God, even temples. Whatever temple is defiled, God shall destroy that temple.

It’s interesting that the temples of Jerusalem and Nauvoo were destroyed. Once the tabernacles of God are corrupted/defiled, they no longer are able to hold God and are destroyed. Not one stone is left standing. 

Same with our bodies, the temples of God. Once we are defiled and no longer will receive God, our temples will be destroyed. Thus, the mass destruction in these last days as many temples will be destroyed and only those willing to receive the Lord in their temple will be able to abide the day of His return.
