JOYFUL ABOMINATIONS
DRINKING FROM THE GOLDEN CUP
This factual report is designed to bring you face to face with Truth that affects your life now, your eternal position in the soon-coming Kingdom of the Messiah of Israel, and perhaps your eternal destiny.
THE GOLDEN CUP?
I wrote an article in November 2012, entitled “The Three Cups.” What you will read below will help you understand why you must fear drinking from the first two cups. Here is a quick summary.
Revelation 17:1-6: “And one of the seven messengers who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me saying `Come! I will show you the judgment of the great whore sitting on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed whoring and the inhabitants of earth were made drunk with the wine of her whoring.. And he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on scarlet beast covered with names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup filled with abominations and the filthiness of her whoring, upon her forehead a name written, MYSTERY--BABEL THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE WHORES OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman, drunkwith the blood of the set-apart ones and with the blood of the witnesses of Yahuweh…’ ”
Jeremiah 51:6-7: “Flee from the midst of Babel, and let each one save his life! Do not be cut off in her crookedness, for this is the time of the vengeance of Yahuweh—the recompense He is repaying her. Babel was a golden cup in the hand of Yahuweh, making drunk ALL the earth. The nations drank her wine. That is why the nations went mad! Babel shall suddenly fall and be broken…”
The woman in Revelation 17 is clearly the Roman Catholic Church, and you know that if you’ve done any extensive studying on your own. “St.” Augustine, in the second century, said: “Rome is the second Babylon.” The spirit of Nimrod moved from the city he built, Babylon, across into Asia Minor, now Turkey, and into Rome, then across Europe, and into the United States. The great whore of Babylon is no more than Nimrod’s wife, Semaramis, under another cloak.
Jeremiah 50 and 51 describe the destruction of America, the final end-time Babylon. The world will soon be forced to drink from the cup of the whore, and whoever does will receive the cup of the wrath of Yahuweh!
This article below exposes Fides (the root-“faith”-of Christianity), Semaramis in disguise. Here is a picture I took at the Vatican, summer 2013, of a giant statue of Fides. Notice the cup she holds.
All who identify with Yahuweh, Elohim of Israel, and Messiah Yahushua, must disengage from all contact with what He calls defilement. Let us learn what is an abomination to Him, and thus defiling to us.
Jeremiah 10:1-7: “Hear the Word that Yahuweh speaks to you, O house of Israel: Thus says Yahuweh: `DO NOT LEARN THE WAYS OF THE HEATHEN, and do not be awed by the signs of the heavens, for the gentiles are awed by them. For the prescribed customs of the people are worthlessness. For one cuts a tree from the forest--work for the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool. They adore it with silver and gold, they fasten it with nails and hammers so that it does not topple. They are like a rounded post, and they do not speak. They have to be carried, for they do not walk’…Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For this is Your due, for among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their reigns, there is none like You…The Portion of Jacob is not like these, for He is the Maker of all, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance—Yahuweh of hosts is His Name.”
Luke 16:13-15: Messiah speaks to the religious Jews of His day: “No servant is able to serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will cling to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve Elohim and mammon.” (Mammon is the god of the world system--money). “And, the Pharisees, who loved silver, heard all this, and were sneering at Him. So He said to them “You are those who declare yourselves righteous before men, but Elohim knows your heart, because WHAT IS HIGHLYTHOUGHT OF AMONG MEN IS AN ABOMINATION IN THE SIGHT OF ELOHIM.”
Mark 7:6-13: “And in vain do they worship Me teaching as teachings the commands of men. Forsaking the commands of Elohim you hold fast the traditions of men. And He said to them `Well do you set aside the command of Elohim, in order to guard your tradition…nullifying the Word of Elohim through your tradition which you have handed down.’ ”
I Kings 18:17-46: This passage describes Eliyahu’s (Elijah’s) famous contest on Mt. Carmel: Eliyahu slays Jezebel’s 450 prophets of Baal (the sun god) and hundreds of prophets of Ashteroth, Baal’s consort--the Queen of heaven. Eliyahu, Yahuweh’s prophet, demands that the people choose between serving Baal or Yahuweh, to take sides immediately. This contest has returned. Baal and Asheroth, Astarete, Ishtar/Easter are now worshipped in some fashion by most of the world’s people.
Psalm 75:8: “For a cup is in the hand of Yahuweh, and the wine shall foam. It is filled with a mixture, and He pours it out. All the wicked of the earth drink, draining it to the dregs.”
Excerpts from II Corinthians 6:14-7:1: “Do not become unevenly yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness (“Lawless against the Torah of Yahuweh)? And what fellowship has light with darkness? And what union has the dwelling place of Elohhim with idols?…Therefore, `Come out from among them and be separate’, says Yahuweh, `and do not touch what I unclean, and I shall receive you. And I shall be a Father to you and you shall be sons and daughters to Me’, says Yahuweh the Almighty. Having, then, these precious promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of the flesh and spirit, perfecting set-apartness in the fear of Elohim.”
Definitions:
“Gentile”: “A heathen, barbarian, pagan, stranger, alien, and foreigner from the promises and covenants of the commonwealth of Israel-the sons of Jacob.” If you are in Messiah, you are not a gentile. (Ephesians 2:8-19)
“Abomination”: The word “abomination” in the Hebrew language, basically has these meanings: #8441 of The ExhaustiveConcordance of the Bible, Hebrew Dictionary by James Strong, says the word “abomination” means: “something disgusting, an abhorrence--especially idolatry--and abomination reg. a custom or thing.” It says in #8263, the word means: “filth.” Its corresponding root #8262 means: “to be filthy, to loath, utterly pollute, detest, abomination.” The Greek word is #946 and means: “to detest, idolatrous.”
In the Webster-Merriam Dictionary, 1994, gives this definition of “abomination”: “something abominable, disgust, loathing.” It is a strong word!
Our heavenly Father calls certain things “abominations.” We must know what is disgusting filth to Him, if we expect His favor.Luke 16:15, above, tells us that whatever the world system goes after is an abomination to Him. Yahuweh started no religion, and neither did Yahushua or His Apostles. What the Father put into motion from the beginning, still stands, like the rising of the sun, and the eternal Torah--the Instructions and Teachings of the Kingdom of heaven. Messiah came to complete--or to make full the Torah. (Matthew 5:17-19) Elohim has nothing to do with man’s religious systems. If you are a citizen of the Kingdom of heaven, you are required to keep its righteous rules, or else you are “lawless.” We either align with His plumb line of Truth or we are “crooked” to the plumb line. (Amos 7:7-8) He is dropping the plumb line again. But, because Messiah is soon coming with the wrath of the Father, He won’t drop it again.
Baal was the sun god invented by Nimrod, son of Cush, son of Ham. “Baal” in Hebrew means “Lord” or “Master.” Baal’s consort was called the Queen of heaven. (Jeremiah 7:18-19; 44:45)
Today, because of the throwing out of Yahuweh’s Shabbat, Festivals, and calendar-dating, substituting them for pagan holidays, under Roman Emperor Constantine in 325 CE, the world celebrates the birthday of Baal and the impregnating of the Queen of heaven, on December 25th. All the sun gods of all pagan cultures were “born” on December 25th. I’m just reporting facts in this article, coupled with the Word of Yahuweh. I am not giving personal opinion.
Jeremiah 10:1-7, quoted above, is talking about the Christmas tree, which is a symbol of the phallus of Baal, decorated with his testicles, “balls,” in gold and silver and other bright colors. That’s what it is my friends--like it or not--that’s at the root of this abomination to Yahuweh!
You might not like the facts I bring out in this article, but sad for you, the factual truth about Christmas can be easily found on the Internet, because it is just history. (For excellent quotes by historians and church fathers, refer to pages 21-24 of this article).
I John 3:4: “Everyone doing sin is also doing lawless (Torahlessness), and sin is the transgression of the Torah.” The word “transgression” means: “Revolt, rebellion, breaking away from, and apostasy.” It is apostasy against the Kingdom instructions and teachings of Yahuweh.
Take sides! Do it now! Yahushua is soon-coming in wrath, and all in His path in the middle of the road (the “lukewarm”--mixture of hot and cold) will be destroyed, no matter how good your belief box is.
Yahuweh commands: If we want to be identified with Him, we must “Be set apart AS I AM set-apart.” (Leviticus 11:44-45; 19:2, 20:7-8, 23-26; I Peter 1:16)
Greek thinking says that you can believe what you want, and do what you want, and the god you’ve created in your own image will pat you on the head and say “that’s OK--I love you anyway.” Greek thinking says that emotional experience is equal to truth. The Elohim of the Bible is not the teddy bear, lollypop, or cherry soda god created by the Greeks and Constantine for the pagan masses. His nature is like the culture of the East, of the Hebrews--straight on line. There is no unconditional syrupy love from the Father or Son in the Scriptures--that’s Greek philosophy. Yahuweh has conditions on whether we are approved or not approved. Read carefully John 14:15, 21-24.
In fact, read the whole Bible straight through, for the promises of protection, love, and care by Yahuweh are predicated on our fearing Him, loving Him with all our heart and soul (which in Hebrew understanding means obedience to Him), and our guarding His Covenant Torah to do it. (Examples: Psalm 103:11-18; Malachi 3:16-4:4)You can’t expect His protection if you do not fear Him enough to obey Him, and make Him your exclusive Elohim. [Refer to: “Royal Secrets and Exclusivity”/October 29, 2010]
Yahuweh is a Father--the best of all fathers! Yes, He is love. He is good, kind, merciful, tender, and gracious. But, He is also pure light and pure righteousness—a “consuming fire,” and though He loves mankind, He cannot not allow darkness in His presence, any more than a light bulb can allow darkness near it. Only a fool presumes on the Creator’s favor.Most people think they are good and deserve His blessings, but He will not allow other gods of man’s making in His face (Exodus 20:3). Yahuweh is a jealous Elohim--and He has a remnant who is set-apart who are in His favor. (Exodus 34:14)
In fact, in Exodus 23:13 we see that He doesn’t even wanting us mentioning other gods: “And in all that I have said to you take heed. And make no mention of the name of other gods, and let it not be head from your mouth.”
Prophetic of Messiah, in Exodus 23:20-22 Moses says: “See, I am sending a Messenger (the Messiah) before you to guard you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared (the land of Israel). Be on guard before Him, and obey His voice. Do not rebel against Him, for He is not going to pardon your transgression (revolt, rebellion, breaking away, apostasy against Yahuweh’s Torah), for My Name is in Him.(Yahuweh--Yahushua) But, if you diligently obey His voice and shall do all that I speak, then I shall be an enemy to your enemies and a distress to those who distress you.” (Italics mine)
This is why Messiah says such things as: “IF you love Me, keep My commandments,” and “You are My friends IF you guard My commandments” and “Unless you forsake all that you have, you cannot be My disciples.” (John 14:15; 15:14; Luke 14:33)
From the oldest Greek texts: John 3:36: “He who believes in the Son possesses everlasting life, but he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of Elohim remains on him.” (The word for “believe” and the word for “obey” are two different Greek words.)
The Hebrew understanding of “faith” is that you must demonstrate openly what you believe, or your belief is a fake. If one says they believe in Messiah, but don’t obey Himwho always obeyed His Father, is a liar. (Jacob/James 2:14-26)
Messiah was Jewish and Levite. He was Hebrew of culture and character. The Greek culture is almost 100% opposite of Yahuweh’s culture! Neither Yahuweh nor Yahushua will tolerate those who willfully continue to rebel against Their Instructions.
Yahushua is coming with the wrath of the Father, described in around 223 prophecies in the Word. (Revelation 19; Isaiah 63:1-6; Isaiah 34:1-8; 59:15-18 are examples) Are you obedient, and humbly ready for Him?
He strongly warns “His people” to get out of everything to do with the Babylon/Baal system, or else we will perish with the wicked. (Ezekiel 21:3)
Isaiah 10, 13, 47, Jeremiah 50:8; 51: 6, 45, and Revelation 18 are a few of the chapters about end-time Babel--America). Yes, America is end-time Babylon--mystery Babylon the Great--historically and actually in every way. I have written extensively exposing the roots of the evil that has been perpetrated by this culture against its citizens and the world, especially against Israel. I have also written a Scripture-study entitled “End Time Babylon.”
My friends, take a look at a picture of the Statue of Liberty--the goddess Liberta—Isis--the Queen of heaven, who holds up the Roman “cup.”[Refer to: “The Goddess That Rules America”/August 20, 2012, this article has several pictures]
The name of Nimrod’s wife Semaramis was changed in different cultures, but it is still the same wicked woman, described in Revelation 17, who became embodied in the Roman Catholic Church. The torch of the Statue of Liberty is actually shaped like a Roman wine goblet, and was originally made as a wine goblet. It was created by a Mason to honor the goddess consort of Baal. That cup in her hand is the cup of whoredom done against Yahuweh’s people in America and worldwide, and now especially in Israel. She is the mother of spiritual whoredom against Yahuweh. These things are factual in history and current events, easily found by the students of truth. Our history books have been re-written to focus on Greece and Rome. Western culture primarily comes from Greece. At the time when Rome was supposedly the world power, the most powerful House of Israel nation of Parthia scared Rome so bad that Rome made a “cold war” pact with them. The Israelite nation of Carthage was also very powerful. They sure fooled the stupid Romans when they said the earth was flat and sea monsters ruled outside the Straits of Gibraltar. The Israelites had been going out through those Straits around the world with Phoenicia for centuries. So to save their treasures, they lied to Rome. It was not until about 1,000 CE until Rome ventured out through the Straits.
Face reality! Americans have been programmed into illusions. Greek culture is based on philosophy, concepts, idealism, and the love of comfort and ease, emphasizing the body, and pampering the five senses. Because it is a pagan culture, there is no recognition of a separate eternal “spirit.”
Repentance must accompany salvation, for there is no salvation without repentance! Repentance does not mean saying “sorry” over and over. It means to turn once and for all from sin, from the kingdom of darkness, and from all that is an abomination to Yahuweh. If a person says they love Elohim, and Messiah, and yet practices what is an abomination to Them--they are liars. I don’t say this on my own--the Word says it. I am not judging, condemning, or criticizing anyone individually--I am just pointing out facts.
I John 2:3-7: “And by this we know that we know Him--IF we guard His commandments. The one who says, `I know Him,’ and does not guard His commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever guards His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. The one who says he stays in Him ought himself also to walk, even ass he walked. (He walked out the Torah) Beloved, I write no fresh command to you, but an old command, which you have had from the beginning. The old command is the Word, which you heard from the beginning.” (Italics mine)
