Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
Jerusalem is mentioned many times in the Koran .. Its called Al-Quds that's short for Beit al-Quds which means holy or pure.

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but here goes anyway.
When I was younger and reading scripture, I came across the prophecy, I think it was in Mathew, "When the second coming happens, every eye will see". I thought, how can that be? Now, that was said approximately 2000 years ago, how could anyone make a bizarre statement like that, and be believed? There was no technology to speak of.
But today we have the technological means of achieving it, televisions, camera and video phones. We have global coverage of news, 24/7 as well.

Approximately 2,000 years ago, a prophecy was made, I think it is in Mathew, "When I come again, every eye will see". It was a time of no technology at all, sand, camels, donkeys and carts. So was it a wild statement, or the truth? Look at today's hi-Tec world, global news coverage 24/7, phones that have camera's and videos technology, so the globe is covered from every angle. So every eye will see the second coming.
