It makes sense to me if you meant Terrestial, but I am confused if you really meant Telestial since you have often mentioned this world now is a telestial kingdom and clearly Satan is not even close to being bound in such a world (unless we do it individually, as you always point out). Am I missing something of a critical teaching you are trying to convey and the temple, too? Or was this a mistype? Would love your help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
