Revelation 17
We are walking in today--Time To Remove The Abominable Thing Away From You!!
Revelation 17:3-5
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 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. 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Removing the Abominations: A Warning to the Bride
By now we should know the 10 Wise Virgin’s in Mathew 25 as well as the Bride in Ephesians 5. She is in preparation for the Bridegroom. They represent those who adorn themselves in white robes and overcame by the blood of Yeshua and the word of their testimony. Meaning salvation is being walked out through wisdom, understanding, and knowledge, seeking the truths through fear and trembling. One humbles themselves under the instructions of the principles. Bares their crucifixion stick daily. Hear listens and obey The rules of the Kingdom.
Yet in all these testing’s for promotions in the Kingdom all that is required from Aheya Asher Aheya (I AM THAT I AM). Is LOVE AND OBEDIENCE. Our ABBA is so good that He warns us of those abomination that would cause us harm and separation from His likeness will and favor.
One must ‘overcome’ in order to avoid being among the abominable, that is, among those abhorred or detested by The Most High, because they practice abominations. Let’s look at a warning given to all who would desire to be among ABBA'S Family:
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Revelation 21:7-8)
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband… 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. (Revelation 21:2,27)
Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither byJerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. (Matthew 5:35)
Mystery Babylon Identified
In order to identify the many abominations being practiced by many Believers today, we must first identify the woman that is the ‘mother’ of these abominations.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
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 ofabominations and filthiness of her fornication
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OFHARLOTS ANDABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. (Revelation 17:3-5)
First, we might recall that the ‘woman’ seen here is the ‘Strange Woman’ religion mentioned in other writings, but seen here as ‘Mystery Babylon.’ The prominent feature of this ‘Strange Woman’ religion as seen here, is that first of all, Mystery Babylon is a ‘mystery,’ and is thus not readily seen. As a result of the unseen ‘mystery’ aspect of this religion, these Believers continue to practice the falsehoods and abominations of the ‘mother’ called Mystery Babylon.
But how do these Believers practice abominations, and not realise they are doing so? To see how this is so, let’s look closely at the above passage, and notice two features of this woman — her name, and the cup held in her hand:
“…having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication…” (Revelation 17:4b)
Oh my first, we see that the golden cup in her hand is full of abominations, and filthiness of fornication. The cup is prophetic of covenant, and the fact that it is a golden cup tells us this speaks of something wrought by the Most High Himself — thus it is ABBA’S covenant. But what notice what the Prophets tell us about the covenant:
6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,7 In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, andthey have broken my covenant because of all your abominations. (Ezekiel 44:6-7)
Continuing in the Revelation passage, we note that the name of the woman is “MOTHER OF …ABOMINATIONS.” This name tells us she is the ‘mother’ of abominations — that is, she gives birth to the practice of abominations. We will recall that this ‘mother’ is a religion that appears to its followers be the embodiment of Truth. But because of the mother’s ‘fornication’ with heathen idolatries, which are falsehoods, she gives birth to a ‘child’ that is actually a mixture of truth and falsehood, and thus is not a part of EL ELYON Covenant.
The practice of keeping and celebrating falsehoods or ‘Lies’ by the followers of this ‘child’ religion are the ‘abominations’ practiced by those followers. Let’s now identify these abominations.
The Abominations Identified
These are actions or practices of the people, either in thought or in deed, and include dishonesty, pride, lying lips, idolatry, and so forth. These are all open and obvious, so we will not deal with these in this writing. We will instead focus on those not easily seen, so more likely to prevent multitudes from entering into the City of the King, and into their inheritance.
Scripture Reveals the Source of Hidden Abominations
For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. (Ephesians 5:5-6)
In the above passage we note two features. First, we have seen from other Scriptures that a person can become ‘abominable’ by the uncleanness/ defilement of disobedience (Lev 11:43; Lev 20:25; Ezra 9:11).” Gone witness then!!!” Here in our Ephesians passage, we see the same message we saw given above in Revelation 21:7-8. We see the uncleanness/ defilement is because of being disobedient Children as well.
some religious practices:
3 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. (Isaiah 66:3)
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. (Proverbs 15:8).
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law(‘Torah’), even his prayer shall be abomination. (Prov 28:9)
In the above Proverbs passage, we see from the Hebrew word definitions, that the wicked are those whose practices are unrighteous, who have departed from the Way, and are crooked in reference to being a “DO-er” of Torah. The upright are those whose practices are righteous, and straight or upright, and are in the Way, as to being a “DO-er” of Torah. If our ear refuses to hear (hearken to, obey) ABBA’S instructions in Torah, even our prayer becomes an abomination to Him. We glean from this that we might be wise to hear (hearken to, obey)The Most High’s Torah, indeed all of His Word, regarding our religious practices. If our ear refuses to hear (hearken to, obey) Abba's instructions in Torah, even our prayer becomes an abomination to Him. We glean from this that we might be wise to hear (hearken to, obey) the Most High's Torah, indeed all of His Word, regarding our religious practices.
Let’s notice another principle:
And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. (Leviticus 10:1)
And Nadab and Abihudied before the LORD,when they offered strange fire before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the sight of Aaron their father. (Numbers 3:4)
And Nadab and Abihudied, when they offered strange fire before the LORD. (Numbers 26:61)
And when they came to Nachon’s threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. 7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. (2 Samuel 6:6-7)
In the above passages, we see one unified principle. In matters of worship commanded by the Most High, to perform something “not commanded” is considered “strange fire”
So we glean the principle that voluntary actions in matters of worship, when not commanded by the Most High, is the same as outright disobedience to the Most High, and results in death.
Now let’s look at one final principle, seen in the following passage:
They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. (Titus 1:16)
In the above passage, we see that it is possible to say(and really believe it to be true) that we know the Most High; but at the same time deny the Most High in our works and actions, and this would include our religious actions or practices. And here again in this passage, as in other Scriptures, we see the principle linking being abominable with being disobedient. But here we see an added bit of information — that because of the disobedience, even what is considered ‘every good work’ is reprobate — that is, not proved, found to be unfit, and rejected by the Most High, because it was not done in obedience to His Word. From this passage we glean the principle, that when we are disobedient to the words of the Most High, we deny Him; and what we may think are good works, are actually abominations, if they are not works of obedience to Scripture.
Hidden Abominations: Exposed to the Light
Because Believers today have turned their ear away from hearing (hearkening to, and obeying) the Law (Torah), they have replaced obedience to the Scriptures with their own religious ‘good works’ or practices, which are ‘Strange fire’ before the Most High, and so are abomination to Him.
Here is a short list of abominations widely-practiced by believers today, considered ‘strange fire’ because they are religious practices not commanded by the Most High. But because they are substitutes for what has been commanded in Scripture, their practice is actually idolatry, and abomination.
1. Easter – An Ancient Pagan Spring Fertility Festival--The Pagan Origin Of Easter – by David J. Meyer
2. Christmas – An Ancient Pagan Celebration of the Winter Solstice--The Origin Of Christmas – by David J. Meyer
Not only are Easter and christ-mass both of pagan origin, mixed with a little truth, they are also religious observances and celebrations “not commanded by the Most High.” According to Scripture, they are ‘abominations.’ Now recall the warning we saw above in Revelation 21:27, that “those who work (make, bring forth, commit, produce, celebrate, keep, perform) abomination, or (‘even’) a lie (falsehood, deception)” will not enter in to the City of the King. The day they are observed should be another clue. Yahushua was not born on 25 December, but on the first day of the 7th Biblical month, the Feast of Trumpets. The christ-mass celebration is therefore not a celebration of His birth. The existence of that one lie should be evident to most.
The Easter celebration likewise, does not observe the Resurrection of Yahushua, for Easter is not observed on Yahushua’s actual Resurrection day, but on a day designated by men, different from the Scriptural day of His resurrection, the Feast of Firstfruits. This too is another lie that is evident.
Conclusion
If we address only these two religious activities, we cover much of the abominations and disobedience preventing multitudes of Believers from entering their inheritance, unless they repent. When we perform these celebrations (and others mentioned in other writings), we are actually in disobedience to the Scriptures, and we thus become unclean, and are an abomination to the Most High, until we choose to repent, and stop our disobedience
These are biblical. The Feast of Yom Teruah, also called the Feast of Shouting and the Feast of Trumpets, was the day in which Messiah was born. As the first day of the Fall Feasts of the Most High, the birth of Messiah was indeed a day of shouting, and we are to observe this day as a memorial (Lev 23:24).
The Feast of Passover was the day of the death of Messiah. That year, it was three days and three nights later, that the Feast of Firstfruits marked the day of Yahushua’s Resurrection, which we are told to observe (Lev 23:5,10).
Let us remove all our Abominations Men Of Torah — This is a Warning to the Bride! Shema Selah, the hidden abominations for if they were clearly exposed why would you honor or uphold them!??! Let all of His truth be clearly revealed!! Facebook LIVE video!!
