Abomination? We Cannot Argue With God: We May Argue...He Will Act

Common Sense Commentary:  Both the Hebrew and Greek languages of the Bible define the word abomination as "An impure, detestable thing".

Webster defines the word Abomination , "Extreme disgust and hatred; abhorrence; loathing; detestation; shamefully vile; foreboding; ominous."

The word "Abomination" is used about 150 times in the Bible.


To be guilty of committing an abomination, a person must, themselves, "choose" to yield to certain temptations and "delight" in it. Isa. 66:3  Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. They have "chosen their own way, and delighted in their abomination"  That puts the fault of their sin squarely upon their own willful "choice".


Homosexuality Is An Abomination
Leviticus 18:22   Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 
Leviticus 20:13   If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination ... their blood shall be upon them. 
1 Kings 14:24   And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel. 
 See also Romans 1:20-32.


Idols And Other False Gods Are An Abomination
Deuteronomy 7:25   The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination to the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 12:31   Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.



Those Who Say Evil Is Good And Good 
Is Evil Are An Abomination
Proverbs 17:15   He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. 


 
Evil Political Leadership Is Especially Wicked
Proverbs 16:12   It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness. I have heard it said that "God raises up all kings". That is a misinterpretation of Daniel 2:21..."And he .... removeth kings, and setteth up kings...." This verse does not say that God removes all kings or sets up all kings. He no doubt sets up and removes some kings, not all kings. God makes that clear in Hosea 8:4 "They have set up kings, but not by me...."



Filthy Leadership, Filthy People, Filthy Land
Ezra 9:11  ....The land ...is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness. 

Ezra 9:14   Should we again break thy commandments, and join in affinity with the people of these abominations? wouldest not thou be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping? 

Jeremiah 6:15   Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD. 



Prophecied Judgement Has Fallen Upon Our Land


Jeremiah 44:22   So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse ...." 


 Ezekiel 7:3   Now is the end come upon thee, and I will send mine anger upon thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense upon thee all thine abominations. 



Great Tribulation Judgement Will Fall 
Upon The Abomination Of Desolation


Danial Prophecied It - 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. 



Jesus Repeated ItMatthew 24:15   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:) 



Revelation Reveals It - Revelation 17:4   And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: 


  Revelation 17:5   And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH

  Revelation 21:27   And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.
