You guys kind of skipped over a point that I think should have been made. Verse 31, 38, & 39 make a very clear point that a COMMANDMENT from God is required to build anything up unto Him (“…which my people are ALWAYS COMMANDED to build unto my holy name.” The Lord isn’t making a blanket statement that His people are supposed to always build temples and houses to Him or His name. He is making a point that NO ONE can build ANYTHING unto Him or His name without having been COMMANDED to do so FIRST.
And where is the recorded VERILY THUS SAITH THE LORD commandment to build the Salt Lake Temple…or any other temple/meeting house, from ANY religion today, let alone the LDS church?
