Because Paul tells us the Man of Sin\Beast\Antichrist will go into a physical building known as the Temple of God and proclaim to be God.

Even though the Temple has no meaning the very idea of Satan walking into the Temple and calling himself God is the ultimate Abomination that ever could be performed.
It might be, but where does it say a man will go in the temple and act as God?
If you read Matthew 24:15, you will find Jesus reference the abomination of desolation from Daniel and in parenthesis it says...whoso readeth, let him understand. What is the reader to understand?
To find out we go to the parallel passage in Luke 21:20 Luke tells us plainly the understanding...when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
The abomination of desolation took place when the armies of Rome set siege against Jerusalem in the 1st century.

Paul makes the claim.
So it's understanding Daniel 12, Revelation 13, Matthew 24, and Thessalonians.

Paul isn't writing about the end of a covenant. He's telling how the new covenant came to be.
You obviously aren't interested in learning what these things really mean and when they actually occur or what the Bible actually teaches concerning them. Carry on.

"He will exalt himself and defy everything that people call god and every object of worship. He will even sit in the temple of God, claiming that he himself is God

Paul most surely did talk about what I have presented.

But you enjoy your night (y)

whos Jesus talking about “ replacing “ ?

“Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭21:43‬ ‭KJV‬‬

who lost the kingdom because they killed the prophets and messiah ? And other people are then given the kingdom ? Who’s he talking about ????

Who is this about ?

“Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: and when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭21:33-39‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Was nstead of tossing around non biblical phrases take a look at what’s being said in the scriptures ….

Who is he saying this to hundreds of years before ? Who’s he talking about skating and replacing with others ?

“I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts; a people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom, your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.

But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.

Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.


And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭65:2-3, 6-7, 11-12, 15‬ ‭KJV‬‬


Who’s he saying all this stuff about ?

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭23:37-38‬ ‭KJV‬‬

the Bible’s pretty clear about this subject

and the key verse in those scriptures you point to is this one .

“Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭9:6-8‬ ‭

n the Old Testament being a flesh descendant of Abraham a descendant of Jacob meant you were identified as israel . That’s not true anymore God identifies his people like this now

“For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3:26-29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

If a person accepts Jesus and the gospel they are the children of Abraham it has nothing to do with them or testament flesh israel that’s over now he numbered them to the sword because of thier rebellion against him throughout the ot generations it’s all very detailed and written throughout the ot but no one really takes time to read it

its pretty clear that israel rejected the messiah and was then made desolate and zgod sent the gospel they rejected to all the world the believers of all nations are the people of God whether they are an Israelite or not
Lol
Your post vividly depicts the church replacing Israel.
But your doctrine of replacement theology needs a new label???
What label suits that doctrine?

Yes it’s actually repetetively taught throughout the prophets try a read through Jeremiah or Ezekiel the prophets only confirm one another as time progressed until there’s a very clear story of what was to come when Jesus arrived that’s what the gospel is … the fulfillment of the prophets foretelling of what was going to happen if israel repented and obeyed or if they rebelled and wouldn’t repent
Unpack Hosea.
What does Gomer represent?
