I CAN’T imagine this NOT being the last tisha b’av before the Geulah

The last Tisha b'Av was the last one before Geulah! This year, on Tisha b'Av, we feast and dance!

EVEN LOOKING DEEPER AT WHY WE CAN NOT BUILD IS EVEN MORE TRAGIC WE WON’T PONDER WELL AS YES WE CAN BUILD DUE TI THE FACT THAT THERE ALREADY EXISTS THE ARCHITECTURAL ANS STRUCTURAL PLANS THAT HAVE BEEN DRAWN AND STAMPED BY THE TEMPLE INSTITUTE FOR MANY YEARS NOW SO ALL ONE HAS TO DUE IS LOOK AROUND AND SEE ALL THE CURRENT BUILDINGS RISING UP ALMOST DAILY THUS WE CAN BUILD IT IF WE WANT !
SO ASK YOURSELF WHY DO WE NOT WANT TO BUILD IT ?
THERE IS ANOTHER REAL TRAGEDY

האיש we don't build the Third Temple, it is already built in Shamayim and it will descend when Moshiach comes. This is something that has been spoken of by no less than the Lubavitcher Rebbe as well as Rabbi Kessin recently.
I well remember seeing Chaim Richman on a video laughing and stating that "Temples do not fall from Heaven" or something like that and I lost all respect for him.
We "build" the Temple by doing mitzvot. Hashem does the rest.
Does Chaim Richman think he is the Moshiach?
Wait patiently and we will have our Third Temple.

YOU ALSO KNOW OF THE SAYING THAT WHEN MBD ARRIVES HE WILL SMELL EACH INDIVIDUAL FOR WHAT IS IN THEIR HEART
THUS
WHAT IS THE SMELL HE WILL BE LOOKING FOR? THE DESIRE OF YOUR HEART TO BUILD THE TEMPLE AND THEN IF THAT SMELL IS THERE HE WILL ASSIGN YOU A TASK IN THE ACTUAL BUILDING WHILE THOSE WHO HAVE NO DESIRE TO BUILD IT WILL BE PLACED OUTSIDE AND NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE CONSTRUCTION
THIS THEN IS DAVID ACTUALLY GETTING THE CHANCE TO FINISH WHAT HE WAS NOT ABLE TO AND PASSED IT ONTO HIS SON TO COMPLETE
PERHAPS THIS IS WHY THE TORAH ENDS WITH A LAMED AND STARTS WITH A BEIT THUS SPELLING WHAT ?
ONLY A THOUGHT

Devorah, Im glad you said it once and for all. All of this hype about building the temple is completely not in line with what our gedolim teach us for hundreds of years. Be good. Do Mitzvos. Hashem does the rest!

[quoting from transcription of Rabbi Kessin's Worst Tisha B'Av in History, link in comments above]

The Third, and Final, Temple

Just as there’s a Jerusalem l’ma’ala--above, in Olam Yetzira—World of Formation which corresponds to the Jerusalem below, there’s a Beis Ha’Mikdash l’ma’ala parallel to the one in this world. That world is the residence of the angels. There’s also a Second Temple in that world to parallel the Second Temple l’mata—below. When G-D rebuilds the Third Temple, it will not be the same as the second or the first, or even the mishkan. G-D will “bring down” that Beis Ha’Mikdash in heaven and physicalize it. It will descend, which is awesome! Why?—because G-D, to an unbelievable degree of holiness, resides in the Beis Ha’Mikdash in heaven. When it descends, G-D and His degree of, almost “Ein Sof”—infinity will descend with it. Therefore, we will experience that degree of G-D’s presence here, below, as it is above. That’s the messianic Beis Ha’Mikdash, the one of Olam Yetzira. The amount of enlightenment, of illumination of consciousness, will be awesome. That is what is meant by “the world will be filled with the knowledge of G-D.”
