The last hour

[3 Resurrections]

God never wanted the temple of stone.

That is NOT what God said in Haggai 1:7-8. God was actually REPROVING the people for having neglected to finish His house. "Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways. Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the Lord."

God told the people in Haggai 2:9 (LXX) "In this place will I give peace, saith the Lord Almighty, even peace of soul for a possession to everyone that builds, to raise up this temple." Though the glory of Solomon's temple was called "great", the glory of that latter temple would exceed the former, because the incarnate Son of God would be standing in that temple in years to come.

I read that in the same manner as @3 Resurrections' belief the last hour is a reference to Satan's short time.

Satan's "short time" that was coming to an end was not the only thing wrapping up in that "last hour". As I already mentioned above, Israel's "last state" and "latter end" as the "holy people" was ending at the same time. As a matter of fact, the gift of tongues was also ending, as well as prophecy which was also going to vanish away. God was then shaking not only the earth, but also the heavens, to remove everything that could not withstand that shaking process. This is why 1 John 2:17 said "the world is passing away, and the lusts thereof." God's "shaking" was already in progress as 1 John was being written.
