3) One Form of Worship for Whole World

Following war and the subjection of the nations world-wide, a Temple of worship for Jew and Gentile and for all the nations will be built in Jerusalem.

16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. (Zechariah 14:16)

A specific form of worship will be instituted which will be obligatory for all nations and all people of the earth. Mankind will worship and obey the Creator and peace will be established on the earth. Those who do not submit to the established form of worship will suffer from famine and plagues.

17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith Yahweh will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.(Zechariah14:17-19)

There will be a time of re-institution of Temple worship at Jerusalem.

20 In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD’S house shall be like the bowls before the altar.
21 Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts. (Zechariah 14:20-21)
