Below are some
additional comments in reference to my 1/12/2012 post at
According to Matthew 24:15-16 Jesus
says, "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 Judaea flee into the mountains: Let him
which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing
out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field
return back to take his clothes. And woe unto them that
are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither
on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation,
such as was not since the beginning of the world to this
time, no, nor ever shall be." And in Mark 13:14-19,
Jesus says, "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: And
let him that is on the housetop not go down into the
house, neither enter [therein], to take any thing out of
his house: And let him that is in the field not turn back
again for to take up his garment. But woe to them that are
with child, and to them that give suck in those days! And
pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. For [in]
those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the
beginning of the creation which God created unto this
time, neither shall be."
So the abomination of
desolation in the holy place must physically be near by in
Judaea since Jesus tells the people in Judaea to
immediately flee when they see the abomination of
desolation stand in the holy place. The holy
place must not be in the Vatican City nor in the
Mormon temple in Salt Lake City nor in Washington, D.C.
nor in New York City because these cities are
not near Judaea in southern Israel.
Daniel 11:31-32 also says, "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. And such as do wickedly against the
covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people
that do know their God shall be strong, and do
[exploits]."
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."
Since "they" place
the abomination of desolation according to Dan. 11:31
and the abomination that maketh desolate is set up in
Dan. 12:11, it sounds like it is an idol or it may very
well be the image of the beast that the second beast
(false prophet) has the people make to the beast in Rev.
13:13-14, and the image of the beast and the beast are
both worshipped. I can't see the image of the
beast being placed or set up inside the holy place in
the temple of God if the temple of
God referred to the bodies of the born again
believers who have the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of
them. So it must be
referring to what would be the holy place in a
rebuilt temple in Judaea in southern Israel, and
Jerusalem was located in Judaea.
