Abomination of Desolation Seed...Part 3 PART III Abomination of Desolation Seed to Armageddon Part III BIBLICAL BACKGROUND We are living in a time right now where we can mark a day on our modern calendar saying a Prophecy was fulfilled this day. The Bible prophesied that the international capitals of the world will invade Israel because of Israel’s annexation of Jerusalem as its capital. The Bible prophesied this event will result in a battle call Armageddon. This is a final battle between God and satin and his evil allies. It is a final battle between the State of Israel and its attackers. The first step was taken on December 23, 2016. 2 Abomination of Desolation Seed to Armageddon Part III BIBLICAL BACKGROUND The first step towards Armageddon occurred on December 23, 2016. Let us examine some biblical background: • Jerusalem became Israel’s capital ca. 1000 B.C. when King David conquered the city of Jebus, territory of the ancient Jebusites • King David moved Israel’s capital from Hebron to Jebus in the biblical time-line of about 135 A.D. • David changed the name of the city he had conquered to Jerusalem • For the next 1900 years Jews prayed each day, 3 times a day and they never forgot the name of their capital Jerusalem and they prayed to God to be allowed to returned to their capital and to rebuild their Temple Mount there 3 Abomination of Desolation Seed to Armageddon Part III Psalm 137:5-6 5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. 6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy. Solomon, King David’s son, built the very first Temple Mount in Jerusalem which was completed in 968 B.C. 1 Kings 9:3 And the LORD said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually. 4 Abomination of Desolation Seed to Armageddon Part III Solomon built the first Temple Mount in Jerusalem, completed in 968 B.C. 2 Chronicles 7:1-3 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house. 2 And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD's house. 3 And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. 1 Kings 11:36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there. 5 2 Chronicles 7:1-2 1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house. 2 And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD's house. 6 1 Kings 9:3 1 Kings 11:36 1 Kings 9:3 And the LORD said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually. 1 Kings 11:36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there. 7 Abomination of Desolation Seed to Armageddon Part III The first Temple Mount was destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D. Luke 19:41-44 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, 42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. 43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, 44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. Jesus prophesied this would happen. Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70A.D. thus fulfilling the prophecy of Jesus. 8 Jesus prophesied this would happen. Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70A.D. thus fulfilling the prophecy of Jesus. Matthew 24:1-2 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 9 960 BC construction of the First 587 BC the first Temple Temple Mount Mount was destroyed 956 BC construction completed by Nebuchadnezzar by Solomon Genesis 22:14 Genesis17:19, 22:2 2 Kings 25:9 First Temple Mount 516/515 BC construction of Second 70 AD the Second Temple Temple Mount Mount was destroyed by by Herod the Great the Romans Ezra 1:1-4, Ezra 5:5 Matthew 24:2 Haggai 2:2-9 Jesus: “…there shall not be left Malachi 3:14 one stone upon another…” Second Temple Mount Ezekiel 40-48, Ezekiel prophesied a The Bible Prophecies This is NOT the Third Temple Mount will replace the are unfolding right Second, Matthew 24:2-7 before our eyes and are Third Temple Mount Jesus prophesied the construction of a pointing directly to our Third Temple Mount modern times in the Holy Lands Today Dome of the Rock 10 This is NOT the Third Temple Mount Dome of the Rock 11 Tigris SYRIA River Mediterranean Sea ISRAEL IRAQ Sinai Gulf of JORDAN Euphrates Suez River THE MOST TROUBLED LANDS on EARTH ALL MENTIONED in PROPHECY The Middle East 12 Tigris SYRIA River Mediterranean Sea MEDITERRANEAN SEA ISRAEL IRAQ Sinai Gulf of JORDAN Euphrates Suez River Gaza Strip of Egypt Sinai Peninsula THE MOST TROUBLED LANDS on EARTH ALL MENTIONED in PROPHECY The Middle East Israel Today 13 East Jerusalem West West Bank Bank East Jerusalem Jerusalem West Jerusalem Of All Cities East Jerusalem Jerusalem is the Most Fought Over City in Wars 14 Eastern and Western Jerusalem As Seen from Orbiting Satellites In Space Jerusalem The Most Fought Over City in Wars 15 The Six-Day War of June 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1967 Israel Captured between the MEDITERRANEAN East Jerusalem SEA MEDITERRANEAN SEA from Jordan State of Israel Israel Captured the Gaza Strip and her attackers from Egypt Gaza Strip of Egypt Sinai Sinai Egypt Peninsula Peninsula Lebanon Israel Captured the entire Sinai Syria Peninsula Jordan Iraq Israel before the War Israel day after War 16 Israel’s Major Wars Date of War Description Israel’s War of Independence May 15, 1948 Five Arab nations attacked Israel on the very next day after the British ended its mandate on May 14, 1948 and Israel declared its independence.

POSTON has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Katherine Jellison Professor of History Joseph Shields Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT POSTON, LANCE E., PH.D., December 2018, History Deconstructing Sodom and Gomorrah: A Historical Analysis of the Mythology of Black Homophobia Director of Dissertation: Katherine Jellison This dissertation challenges the widespread myth that black Americans make up the most homophobic communities in the United States. After outlining the myth and illustrating that many Americans of all backgrounds had subscribed to this belief by the early 1990s, the project challenges the narrative of black homophobia by highlighting black urban neighborhoods in the first half of the twentieth century that permitted and even occasionally celebrated open displays of queerness. By the 1960s, however, the black communities that had hosted overt queerness were no longer recognizable, as the public balls, private parties, and other spaces where same-sex contacts took place were driven underground. This shift resulted from the rise of the black Civil Rights Movement, whose middle-class leadership – often comprised of ministers from the black church – rigorously promoted the respectability of the race.

  • Same-Sex Desire and Jewish Community: Queering Biblical Texts in Canadian and American Jewish Literature Shlomo Gleibman York University
    Same-Sex Desire and Jewish Community: Queering Biblical Texts in Canadian and American Jewish Literature Shlomo Gleibman York University It has been asserted that queer subjectivity can be realized in identifications with 249 certain images of mainstream culture, sometimes to a far greater extent than in “con- ventional” forms of gay life (Sedgwick, Tendencies; Butler, Bodies; Munoz; Halperin, How). These nonlinear, nonnormative identifications and disidentifications partici- pate in the formation of multiple, hybrid identities through working on, with, and against a dominant cultural form (Munoz 3-8, 30). This essay looks at Jewish queer narratives in their relation to mainstream Jewish culture, as examples of contem- porary forms of Jewish literary imagination in North America. I am interested in exploring the ways Jewish queer culture workers read a queer valence that is already present within Jewish intellectual life in its traditional form-potentially or in actual- ity in individual experiences, and imaginatively, as a rhetorical trope in some modes of literature. The queer possibilities in reading classical Jewish texts could be better under- stood in light of the Foucauldian theory of polyvalence of discourse, developed in The History of Sexuality. This theory regards discourse as never unified or fixed, but rather as “a series of discontinuous segments, not uniform nor stable, multiplicity of discursive elements that can come into play in various strategies” (Foucault 100). In this sense, the queer valence present in classical Jewish texts and in traditional patterns of studying these texts does not constitute “homoeroticism” as a uniform narrative or as a coherent element of a larger narrative; rather, this “queer kernel” could name a play of multiple “discontinuous segments” that lend themselves to cer- tain modes of reception.

Before we consider the texts, where Gehenna occurs in the New Testament, it is of importance to notice the following facts. They have been altogether overlooked, or but little attended to in discussions on this subject. 1st. The term Gehenna is not used in the Old Testament to designate a place of endless punishment. Dr. Campbell declares positively that it has no such mean- ing there. All agree with him; and this should lead to careful inquiry whether in the New Testament it can mean a place of endless misery.

  • God's Word on Homosexuality
    TMSJ 19/2 (Fall 2008) 153-174 GOD’S WORD ON HOMOSEXUALITY: THE TRUTH ABOUT SIN AND THE REALITY OF FORGIVENESS John MacArthur President and Professor of Pastoral Ministries Through following a distorted meaning of “love,” some in the present day have condoned homosexual practice, without realizing that biblical love excludes homosexuality because of its sinfulness. Christians can best share the gospel with homosexuals by calling their lifestyle what the Bible calls it—sin. Genesis 1–2, Matthew 19, and Ephesians 5 describe clearly the way that God has instituted marriage as a monogamous, heterosexual relationship. Genesis 19, Jude 7, and 2 Peter 2 illustrate how the Fall almost immediately eroded the purity of human sexuality, including a devastation of the divine institution of marriage. Leviticus 18 and 20 and Romans 1 lay out very plainly God’s instructions about how repulsive homosexuality is in God’s sight. Yet Isaiah 56 and 1 Corinthians 6 make plain God’s plan for homosexuals to find freedom and forgiveness through a life-changing faith in Jesus Christ. The door is wide open for homosexuals and lesbians to accept God’s invitation. * * * * * “All you need is love.” So said the Beatles. If they had been singing about God’s love, the statement would have a grain of truth in it. But what usually goes by the name love in popular culture is not authentic love at all; it is actually a deadly fraud. Far from being “all you need,” the world’s distorted view of love is something Christians desperately need to avoid.

Hajek: Still a Rivalry: Contrasting Renaissance Sodomy Legislation in Fl In the year 1496, a total of 243 young Florentine boys confessed their participation in homosexual intercourse in front of the Office of the Night. Of them, not a single boy was executed, instead only receiving minor fines for their participation in such a taboo.1 Yet, at about the same time in Venice, Simeone, a young boy of 18, was being publically mutilated for his participation in the same act.2 How is it that two Italian Renaissance cities could punish the same act so disproportionately to one another? Gay men have often found themselves as a persecuted minority, and this was very much the case for homosexual males living on the Italian peninsula during the Renaissance.

    WORDS FROM THE WORD – Seven Things God Hates A LYING TONGUE REVIEW Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination (disgusting) unto him: (17) A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, (18) An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, (19) A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren. • WHY STUDY THIS PASSAGE? To get to know God better (when we understand His Heart (what offends Him), we know His nature and personality better) • WHY does God hate these things? They are AGAINST His very nature…They are OPPOSITE of His design o We must SEE them in ourselves AND hate them in ourselves. • “A look, a tongue, hands, a heart, feet. All sin is the abuse of some power or faculty. The organ is innocent in itself, but it is prostituted to a base purpose. Every part of our nature is susceptible of this degradation. The more powers we have, the greater is our capacity of evil doing as well as of well doing.” • “The 7 things…are all characteristics of fallen Lucifer, and all of them stand in stark contrast to the characteristics of the Lord Jesus.” ~Phillips • “all the seven…belong to one man, the man of Belial.” Proverbs 6:12-15 A naughty (belı̂ya‛al – without profit) person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward (perverse; distorted) mouth.
