Featured The Abomination Of Desolation

The Judaism worship of today is a huge blasphemy. The temple WILL be rebuilt for the AOD to take place in. The previous failure was because it wasn't time for it yet. The Jews are well aware of the previous failure.

 

Daniel didn't write of the destruction of J & the AOD in the same prophecy, The destruction of J is in Daniel 9:26, while the AOD is in 11:31 & 12:11. So, the destruction & the AOD are different events. If the destruction had been the AOD, the apostles would've had to have been in the middle of it to have seen it. However, no one has seen the AOD because it hasn't yet occurred.

And I thought you were smarter than to believe that jive about the Roman ensigns, something that was invented by the stupidest of the preterists years back.

You left out the first part of the verse:He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, If the Romans deified an emperor, they didn't worship him alone; they added him to their pantheon of gods/goddesses. And the emperors themselves worshipped the same pantheon.

I have very-plainly explained why Nero, nor Caligula, nor any other Roman ruler was the beast. The TRUE beast MUST fulfill EVERY Scriptural criterion for the beast, TO THE LETTER. Both Hitler & Stalin fulfilled more of them than Nero did.

No, the sea beast represents both the antichrist & his empire, while the beast from the earth represents both a religious org & its boss, the false prophet. It will be subservient to the first beast.

No, the image of the beast will be an image of the true beast, who hasn't yet come.

No, "every tribe on earth" means EXACTLY THAT! The Israelis are included, of course, but they're only 12 of the thousands of earthly tribes. And while those who pierced Him are dead, they'll see His return from hades.

Actually, the Jewish wars didn't end til 73 AD when Masada fell. And a FAR-WORSE event befell the Jews, starting AD 135-136 when Hadrian's forces expelled them from their land & gave it to the Philistines, who hadn't rebelled against Rome.("Palestinian" is Latin for 'Philistine'.) After that, it's well-known the Jews were hated & persecuted wherever they went. It's even reflected in Shakespeare's character Shylock. It culminated in the nazi holocaust in which 6 million of the world's 13 million Jews perished.

God's power kept them from being exterminated for some 1900 years, and, beginning in 1945, empowered them to defeat their Moslem enemies & gain some revenge on the nazis. You know the rest.[/QUOTE]

 

Easily. They were not set up. Their purpose was for unit ID. When soldiers became scattered in battle, they headed toward the ensign of their unit. This method of keepin units together was still used in WW1.

The Romans destroyed J & the temple as Daniel & Jesus said. But they did NOT do the AOD. They didn't set up anything in the temple; they pulled it down, looking for gold between its stones.

You don't WANT to see, but it's quite plain. The beast won't recognize any god but himself, while every Roman emperor worshipped the Roman pantheon. That rules them out as being the beast.

No, he doesn't come CLOSE. When was he ever in Jerusalem? When was he cast alive into hell?

No, he was ruler of the 6th kingDOM. There were many more than 5 kings of Rome before him.

No, they don't line up at all. Nero & Israel had nothing to do with each other, except Judea was a province of the empire.

No, 'every tribe on earth' means every tribe on earth, unless you don't believe Scripture. And the "Jewish tribes" are only Judah, Benjamin, & Levi. The rest of the Israelis aren't Jews. And they didn't see anything when J fell except its destruction. Jesus hasn't yet returned.

Jesus ended that on the cross.

God punished them severely for some 1900 years. When the godless Napoleon Bonaparte was asked if he believed in miracles, he answered with out hesitation, "Oui! The Jews!"

Your whole premise is built on opinion & guesswork. It's been soundly proven Nero was NOT the beast. Gabriel plainly told Daniel about the AOD, and Daniel wrote it'd be both placed & set up in the temple. After the statue of Zeus placed & set up in it by Antiochus Epiphanes, no such further act occurred in that temple again. So, a new temple must be built for it to occur in. THAT'S COMMON SENSE!

And Jesus did NOT physically, visibly return in 70 AD. He said Himself His return would be in great power & glory, visible as lightning, seen by all, saying no one would mistake His return for anything else & He would be seen by all. And He specifically warned against those who would spread rumors that He'd already returned & was hiding in the desert, etc. Seems you believed one of those rumor-spreaders by saying He'd returned in 70 AD!

I dismiss your whole thingy as horse feathers, phony as a Chevy Mustang.

To say the AOD was Roman ensigns is beyond ridiculous. I suggest you stop reading the fiction written by Gentry, Preston, etc. & stick to Scripture & legitimate, accurate history boox.

 

They WEREN'T.

They didn't. The word "desolation" appears 54 times in the NKJV, 58 times in the NASV, & only five of them refer to the AOD. There were quite a few desolations in Scripture. The Luke desolation is merely the destruction of J. And there's absolutely NO RECORD of the Romans' having set up anything in the temple !

OK, you claim Nero was the beast. Please tell us who his false prophet deputy was, & when they both were cast alive into the lake of fire.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !
Nero was NEVER in J! And his suicide KILLED him! He was NOT cast alive into hell !

No, the previous kingDOMS were Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia & Greece. The one that then was, was Rome.

Evidently you haven't studied them TOO extensively, or you'd toss the "Nero=beast" garbage. You just GUESSED how Daniel's prophecies came to pass.

No, Jesus has NOT yet come back physically or visibly at all. However, He is present SPIRITUALLY, as He said He'd be, whenever/wherever 2 or more are gathered in His name. And that includes on social media, so be careful what you post!

But you add those teachings of MEN, who by & large are quacks, to the teachings of Scripture, while I use history and reality.

The request to preterists, "PLEASE SHOW US FROM HISTORY WHEN IT HAPPENED", gets'em every time !

 

MMRRPP ! WRONG !
The FP will be a man. And your assumption further wrecks your "Nero=beast" hooey. Nero and Israel never associated, and Israel CERTAINLY didn't demand that everyone worship Nero. And there's not one quark of Scripture nor history saying any priest was cast into the LOF.

And he didn't. That's part of why he wasn't the beast.

That's because "that detail" is a sure proof Nero wasn't the beast.

It leaves a LOT of questions because it's completely false.

with INCORRECT answers, such as your (and Gentry's) "Nero=the beast" bunk.

It's your right to be wrong by sticking with something completely disproven by history and Scripture. And OF COURSE we don't know how the future's gonna play out, but GOD has given us a good idea.

Preterism is totally man-made. History DISproves it. Otherwise, you could tell us who the beast REALLY was, who the FP was, that the mark of the beast looked like, when the great trib occurred worldwide, and, most of all, when JESUS PHYSICALLY & VISIBLT RETURNED, seen by all.

Scripture plainly shows us what the AOD will be, and history shows us it hasn't happened yet. You can't get around it.

"PRETERISM-PHONY AS A $3 BILL!"

 

The fact that this has become just another anti-preterism thread is partly mine. So, I'm gouing back to the OP & thread title-the AOD.

I posted Scriptures showing the AOD will be something that's placed & set up, with the first one being the statue of Zeus placed & set up in the temple by Antiochus Epiphanes in the 160s BC. There'll be a future one , as Jesus said"when you see the AOD mentioned by Daniel...". So we know the type. And Scripture goes on to say the false prophet would command men to make an image or statue of the beast/antichrist who had received what shoulda been a fatal head wound, but recovered. And Paul wrote that the beast/man of sin would enter the temple & proclaim himself God. Scripture also says that man won't recognize any other god but himself, so that knocks out any Caesar being the beast, as all Caesars worshipped at least some of the Roman pantheon of gods/goddesses.

So the scenario for the AOD appears to be that the beast will enter the new temple the Jews will build in Jerusalem, halt all sacrifices, & declare himself God while having his statue set up in that temple. That'll be the sign which shall cause all Christians to flee Jerusalem at once, without any delay. I'm GUESSING the reason will be that, having declared himself God, the beast will have his forces hunt down & kill anyone worshipping any other god, starting in Jerusalem.

But anyway, Scripture paints a picture of what the AOD will be. Saying it was Roman ensigns, etc. is simply against Scripture.

 

With all due respect, you're absolutely INCORRECT! Most of the Jews submitted to Rome because they didn't want to be whacked, & besides, Rome brought them "law & order", good, safe roads, etc. And the high priests, current & former, were killed by the Idumeans & Zealots in 68 AD, so they weren't cast alive into hell. And if any of them deserved such a fate, it was Caiaphas, who had Jesus crucified. However, his home is still standing, & his ossuary was found, with his name plainly written on it. There's not a quark of Scripture nor historical record that any priest, or anyone else, was ever tossed alive into the lake of fire.

For the umpteenth time, please show us HISTORICAL PROOF that the eschatological events have already occurred! And I mean from a LEGITIMATE SOURCE, not the garbage those pret quack "authors" write.

Yes, preterism is false. For several millenia, men thought the earth is flat til FACT took over.

And every time you've told me that has been just-as-false as it was the first time.
I posted FACTS that **PROVE** Nero was NOT the beast-HISTORICAL FACTS you CANNOT refute! But yet you still believe the garbage of Gentry, Preston, etc. which has proven as false as that of Hal Lindsey.

HORSE FEATHERS!
It will be issued by the beast.
You're trying to have your cake & eat it, too. Scripture plainly says the beast will issue the mark thru the false prophet, & there's absolutely NO record that Nero or Israel issued any kind of mark required to do business, nor aligned himself with the Jews in any manner. You're working against your own perceived beast!

No, Jesus has NOT yet returned in any manner. He plainly warned against believing He had returned by word of mouth because His return would be visible as lightning, seen by ALL.
And plainly, the great trib has NOT occurred, It will be WORLDWIDE, and the beast will be in power when it does occur, or else Jesus was wrong in Rev. 3:10! (Remember , the Philadelphia church STILL EXISTS ! !)

Between Lodic & I, WHO has made their case? WHO has presented FACTS?

I believe Lodic is a Christian, but he's been led astray by some purveyors of bunk. I hope the HOLY SPIRIT steps in & shows him the TRUTH before others get led astray.
