Glenn Beck announced the location of his "Restoring Courage" rally within the city of Jerusalem, and the details are sure to ignite more controversy...the steps near the southern wall of the Temple Mount...
The Temple Mount has a tremendous amount of historical and spiritual history for Christians and Jews. One story in particular may be of interest to Beck's critics. According the Matthew 21:12-17, the Temple Mount is where Jesus angrily turned over the tables of merchants who dared to sell goods for profit at the Temple Mount. After flipping over the tables Jesus told the merchants "My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a 'den of robbers.'"
Of course, it is recorded in Isaiah also:
2 And it shall come to pass in the end of days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many peoples shall go and say: 'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths.' For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
And this:
6 Also the aliens, that join themselves to the LORD, to minister unto Him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be His servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and holdeth fast by My covenant: 7 Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer; their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon Mine altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
So, Beck is right in line with the Bible.
And all those with courage will approach the Temple Mount.

This cannot have effect in actual fact, that is what I think.
