Bible's Answers. Doug Batchelor "What is 'Abomination of Desolation' "


Again my Thanks to Inside Reports 3rd Quarter of 2014 and Pastor Doug.

     Matthew 24:15-16  "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains:"

  Jesus ' command came as an answer to two questions, from His disciples.

#1.  regarding the destruction of the Hebrew Temple,  when .."not stone would be on top of another.."
#2.  about the signs of coming and the end of the age.

    Matthew 24:3  "And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?" 
    Then Christ speaks of this abomination saying ....
    Matthew 24:21  "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be."

   Jesus, then tells us directly to go back to Daniel the Prophet [{(j.b.) thereby also directly tying the Old Testament with the New, sorry "NEW" Testament 'Christians:' it takes both as one complete BOOK!]

   Daniel 8:13  "Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? "

   The first fulfillment of the desolation happened when the Roman armies destroyed the Jewish Temple in 70 AD. For this is the why of...
Luke 21:20-21  "And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter there into."

   This brought tribulation  to the Jewish people [{j.b.) in fact between killing and taking slaves, this nation of the Jews, ceased to exist until 1948! Even the Roman maps remove the name Judea and replaced it with Palestine, contrary to what the "Palestinian people are taught!]

   Daniel used the same message... in VS 13, above, and in Dan. 11:31 and 12:11......>
    Luke 21:24  "And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled."

    Daniel 11:31  "And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate."
    Daniel 12:11  "And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days."

   The very same religious power spoken of in Dan.8:13 is the same evil religious power that will, at the time of the end, bring desolation into God;s church by the mingling of paganism with Christianity. Just as God gave the early Christians a warning to flee Jerusalem [(jb) Josephus wrote not one Christian was slain nor taken as a slave in 70.A.D.] so too at the end of time, does the Lord God give us warning...

   Revelation 18:4  "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."
     Revelation 18:7-9  "How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,"

     The Bible tells all to "Get out of Babylon (confusion caused by deceptions)  or they shall also receive her plagues. When a corrupt world church unites with earth's governments, making them speak via laws, and enforcing Sunday Worship, thus  creating two camps of believers. We know that time is at hand, and we need to flee to Christ with willing hearts.

Camp 1:   Will be those who love and obey God's Commandments.
Camp 2.   Will the all the rest, those who obey man's laws.Worship the Sun god, on Sundays, the first day of the week rather than God of His Holy day The Sabbath on the Seventh day of the week!
