anyone who rejects Jesus is left desolate until then you still have hope of life that’s the abomination that caused Israel’s desolation. What I mean is brother what I’m saying is read this parable and tell me at what point israel had commited the final abomination that caused them to be destroyed and lose the kingdom to other people ?
what was the terrible thing they did that brought forth Gods wrath sort of what was the last act that brought them down ?
“The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, and sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. ( the early prophets he sent calling them to repent like Elijah the tishbite )
Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. (The latter prophets like Isaiah or Joel or Hosea the latter prophets he sent calling Israel to repentance )
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: and the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. ( what Jerusalem did to them )
But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
Then saith he to his servants, ( the New Testament prophets and apostles like Peter , Paul , John ect )
The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. ( go into all the world preach the gospel whoever believes …)
So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.”
Matthew 22:2-10 KJV
“But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the Lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.”
Matthew 21:37-41, 43
What I mean to say is the ot speaks of a last act by Israel after all the worshipping of false gods throughout and rebellion and defiling of the covenant and temple ….. it was rejecting Jesus Christ the way the truth and the life and killing him that left them desolate , thier covenant religion in man made temples I’m talking about without a temple Judaism is a desolate religion and cannot be followed because the temple and priestly services are the center of it God used to fill the temple with his glory on atonement day ….there’s no need for that anymore the real atonement has been done . Jesus terrible death is the action that caused thier fall . But I understand what you’re saying they really rejected and rebelled all along from before Moses even had brought down the tablets …..they already broke the first commandment worshipped every diety under the sun over the generetions ect
jesus rejection is the place of desolation is all I’m saying if you think of it , it’s also true of every person . If we reject jesus there’s nothing left that can save us regardless if we build a building and sacrifice animal blood that just shows in itself tbat we have rejected the etonement God made for all sin forever
Which is proof of a man’s desolation
