Abomination

He was playing to the evangelicals in the crowd. The insincerity was dripping from every pore of this man’s body language. Of course, the main writer of “The Art of the Deal”, Brian Schwartz, said that if he were to write the book all over again, he’d title it, “The Sociopath”. What? You thought Trump wrote the book? I would never “personally” say Trump didn’t write it but I hear some are sayin’… (Trump tactic in play). Verse 26 has the Antichrist “coming to his end” as the kingdom is handed…

As already stated, Antiochus is one of the clearest types of Antichrist in the Bible. The Abomination of Desolation he committed is clearly both an event that happened in the 2nd century B.C. as well as a future event that will happen half-way through the tribulation period of Daniel’s 70th week. Types in the Bible can be either events or people…

As already stated, Antiochus is one of the clearest types of The Antichrist in The Bible. The Abomination of Desolation that Antiochus committed is a “type” from the 2nd century B.C., that points forward to its future “anti-type” which shall be fulfilled half-way through The Tribulation Period — Daniel’s 70th week. Types are biblical characters (or…

Over many years, beginning in the early 1830’s and onward the United States was not so united. The Tariff act of 1828 or more well known by its nickname “The Tariff of Abominations” was designed to help support the northern industries by an increase of taxes on the British bringing in raw materials to sell. By taxing the British it gave the northern port economy’s an influx of wealth from the taxes. However, the South grew angry that the north was no longer purchasing the southern goods,…

turning him into something else. Something primitive and infantile, yet monstrous. Then he saw Elrich, an island, he owned and controlled, harboring creatures he'd never seen before; things so strange and ill-natured they evoked disgust within him. Abominations with the words—Magnus Teras—inscribed in their flesh. The next day, Roth acted. He told his king's soothsayer—Lichtenberg—master of the divine and supernatural injuries, scars, and markings called gnosis about his premonition. He…

film inspired by Heart of Darkness and was released in 1979. Similar themes are displayed in both the film and novella. One main theme that they both have in common is “the fascination of the abomination” (Conrad, 7). Heart of Darkness and Apocalypse Now explore the theme of “the fascination of the abomination” through the setting of imperialism. Some of the other themes include the perception of the interior and exterior being; moral ambiguity set throughout the story; and the hypocrisy of…

manufactured British goods (Khan, “The Nullification Crisis”). Specifically, the Tariff of 1828, or most commonly known as the Tariff of Abominations, was passed in the years that followed the War of 1812 to protect the American businesses. This tariff defended products in the North from the imports competition overseas (History, Art, and Archives, “The Tariff of Abominations: The Effects”). However, the tariff did little to support the businesses in the South. As a result of the tariff, it…

Point #2 – The destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in A.D. 70 is a fulfilment of Christ’s prophecy of perilous times. In moving along, we turn our attention to verse 14 of the text. Verse 14 is a pivotal moment in Christ’s teaching to his disciples. In verses 4-13 Jesus has been telling his disciples to look for signs; however, those signs can be looked at as being vague and not specific. Furthermore, those signs would occur during a time period that would lead to the destruction. In verse…

Biblical literalism is reading the words in the Bible as if they have come directly from God’s mouth. They take the parts of the Bible they want to believe are true making them sure because it is something that they do not want to see. Biblical literalism is no analysis of the text which is nearly impossible. In the film For the Bible Tells Me So there are five families, three of which I will be discussing, each with a gay or lesbian child directly dealing with feelings and situations they would…

clearly unbiblical because Leviticus 18:22 states, “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.” And Leviticus 20:13 says, “If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.” (ESV). God refers to homosexual sin as an abomination. A biblical definition of the word abomination is used to describe practices that are disgusting, loathsome and absolutely intolerable—things that…
