How many here believed that the ark of the covenant of God will be physically found? Do you think it is literal what was written in the book of Revelation that the ark is in heaven?

It is here on earth, well hiden, well guarded. If found it would rock the religious world because it would be the proof positive so many doubt. The Bible is real.

What made the Ark holy was what it contained; the tablets (the word of God), Aaron's staff (the priestly symbol) and manna (food from heaven).
Mary carried within her, the Word made Flesh, The High Priest of Heaven the one whose flesh is real food and blood real drink. In Revelation, when John describes the temple, he describes it from the porch to the Holy of Hollies (where the Ark was kept). Keep in mind that when he wrote this, the Ark had been hidden for over 500 years; surely everyone wanted a first hand account of what it looked like. But, after describing the temple up to the Holy of Hollies, right when you think he should be describing the Ark, he describes Mary.
Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant.
God Bless,

You seem to believe that Heaven is not, nor will be on Earth.
I find no such evidence in the Bible, nor in the speech of Christ.
I believe the Ark is here, and built as Moses was commanded.
The Ark, also known as the seat of prayer was built for worshiping God, with Angels on both sides of the seat, and wings holding it together.
That symbolizes, I think, the true way of prayer, intercession, and the protection of God.
If God wants it to be found, then so shall it be.

No the arc of the covenant is real and is earth bound - It will be found in time - It was probably looted from the temple but will show up in a place that the thieves hide it for self protection. The arc only contains the 10 commandments - and is made of solid gold - it could have been destroyed but it is the arch of God and it will be regenerated and placed where it belongs.

Do not dream to see the ark an more on earth!!!
Due to the Jews' stubbornness in doubting God's existence in the desert, God showed a "physical sign" through an ark with his daily presence for Jewish worship.
Now, the worship through a physical sign was replaced with the sign of Jesus Christ on earth. And after salvation, God desired a true worship in God in spirit (not in any location, Jerusalem, mountain, or desert ...)

The ark is already in heaven. The one made on earth is only a copy. It may already be found and waiting for the temple to be built to house it.
http://www.bible-prophecy.com/temple.htm#ark
Thomas McCall says that Rabbi Shlomo Goren and Rabbi Yehuda Getz, the rabbis in charge of the Western Wall area, are convinced that the Ark has been hidden in a cave in the Temple Mount directly under the site of the Holy of Holies. Wherever it is, the intense interest in it by Jewish Rabbis is a sign of the nearness of the Rapture.

The ark in heaven is symbolic.
Who knows if we will find the ark, but it wouldn't surprise me at all. We have found the tomb of Caiaphas, the high priest that brought Jesus to trial, the ruins of King David, the walls of Jericho, and so much more!!! Archaeologists have found ruins as far back as the city of Ur from Abraham's time!!

Interesting that Christians believe God can take certain things away from the Earth, but in other cases, they scoff at the same claim. For instance, when Joseph Smith claimed that an angel took the "gold plates" that he used to translate the Book of Mormon. Mainstream "christians" ridicule the claim...yet it is actually in accordance with their own doctrine... Interesting, no?

That is the million dollar question. Since it was covered with Gold it could still be found. Who knows if it will though. I hope so.
Maybe the WSIDR has it and doesnt realize it.
