because Satan and his little workers will not be allowed to distort the teaching of The Word during that time. Everyone will have an opportunity to hear the True Word during that time, and everyone will recognize The Word with the limits of the flesh mind removed, for we all will be in that spiritual body as written in I Cor.15. Isa 6:11 Then said I, "LORD, how long?" And He answered, "Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, The word ‘wasted’ is Hebrew ‘sha’ah’, or ‘to be desolate’. Isaiah is asking God how long this condition of the people that ‘hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not’ will exist. God’s answer is also the one that Jesus gave His disciples in Matt 24: Mark 13: Luke 21: Daniel the prophet also spoke of the ‘desolation’, and Jesus referred to Daniel in The Gospel. Turn to Mark 13:14: Mark 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: The word ‘abomination’ in this verse is ‘bdelugma’ in Greek, and means ‘a detestable thing dealing with idolatry’. The phrase, ‘of desolation’ in the Greek, is ‘eremosis’ from the root word ‘eremos’, a ‘waste’. So this phrase taken back to the Greek means ‘an idol that lays waste’. The historical ‘abomination of desolation’ that polluted the Temple sanctuary, was the King of Babylon. Antiochus defiled the sanctuary but did not destroy it. This ‘abomination of desolation’ is a man, not a condition. Consider this verse in Daniel: Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. This ‘he’ is Satan. He is the abomination that maketh the Temple sanctuary desolate. Our daily sacrifice and oblation today is Christ, for His crucifixion changed that part of God’s Law, nay...'fulfilled' The Law. In other words, Holy Communion with Christ is how we as Christians partake of the daily sacrifice and oblation now. Satan will cause the Holy Communion to cease because those deceived will think that he is Jesus, here on earth, as the ignorant religious systems will be teaching that Jesus has returned as written. The only problem is that, it's written that Satan comes first portraying the role of Messiah, in person on earth; then comes the true return of Christ to defeat Satan, and the change of everyone into the spiritual body all takes place at the last trump, or seventh trumpet of Revelation. It is written in... II Thess.2: ...by Paul, that the ‘son of perdition’, which is one of Satan’s many names, will sit in the Temple, proclaiming himself to be God, before the return of Jesus. All these events of the false messiah coming first and making the cities ‘waste’ and ‘desolate’, must take place before Christ returns. When Christ returns on the last trump, and all that are alive in the flesh are changed into the spiritual body, that’s when everyone will have ‘eyes to see, and ears to hear.’ Isa 6:12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land. This word ‘forsaking’ is ‘azuwbah’ in Hebrew, meaning ‘to relinquish, or leave away from’. It means the ‘great apostasy’ of God’s people that are deceived into believing on the false Messiah, instead of waiting for the True Christ Jesus. Isa 6:13 But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof." |
