Plausible Hypothesis on What Exactly the “Abomination of Desolation” Might Be
Barnhardt ^ | 2/26/15 | Ann Barnhardt

Posted on 02/28/2015 1:13:39 PM PST by BlatherNaut

I recently tweeted THIS PIECE on the attempts by Francis and his felonious thug toadies to execute a de facto abrogation of the Sixth Commandment, written under a nome de plume (or is that nome de guerre?) over at The Remnant Newspaper. When I read the author’s two concluding paragraphs, one thought entered my mind, and has not left since. That thought was, “Oh my gosh. THAT is the Abomination of Desolation.”

First, let me quote the final two paragraphs from The Remnant’s piece:

The gravity of this looming crisis cannot be overstated. If this proposal is adopted, it will be more far-reaching than any other of the post-Conciliar manipulations like Communion in the hand or altar girls. This will strike, in one blow, against the very pillars of the Faith: the Eucharist and the priesthood. The Eucharist, the presence of which was barely preserved in the New Mass, will be systematically desecrated. And those who will be expected to do the desecrating will be the priests, who will certainly be punished if they refuse.

It will also put paid to whatever hopes we have of restoring the Faith by the work of an up-and-coming young faithful priesthood, since only men who have demonstrated their willingness to desecrate the Holy Eucharist will be considered suitable for the seminary.

When I was a kid in the late 1980s and early 90s I used to watch an “End Times” weekly “news” program on old channel 50 in Kansas City, the UHF Christian channel, put on by a televangelist called “Jack van Impe Presents”, along with his very heavily augmented wife, Rexella. He tended to focus, interestingly enough, on the then-coalescing European Union, trying desperately to tie the EU directly and precisely to the Danielic eschatological passages. (For those of you who do not know, “eschatology” is the branch of theology that deals with death, judgment and the End Times. “The Eschaton” (ESS-ka-tawn) is the fancy name for the End of the World. I think these are worthwhile terms to know. Sure can’t hurt.) Anyway, the Danielic term “Abomination of Desolation” was mentioned not infrequently, but it never made any sense within the context of worldly events. There are three instances of this term in Daniel, all within the context of apocalyptic visions:

And he shall confirm the covenant with many, in one week: and in the half of the week the victim and the sacrifice shall fall: and there shall be in the temple the abomination of desolation: and the desolation shall continue even to the consummation, and to the end. Daniel 9: 27

And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall defile the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the continual sacrifice, and they shall place there the abomination unto desolation. And such as deal wickedly against the covenant shall deceitfully dissemble: but the people that know their God shall prevail and succeed. Daniel 11: 31-32

And from the time when the continual sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination unto desolation shall be set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred ninety days. Daniel 12: 11

If we look up the term “Abomination of Desolation”, we quickly discover that this term has also been translated from the Hebrew in the book of Daniel to … wait for it … DESOLATING SACRILEGE.

Our Blessed Lord Himself speaks of the Abomination of Desolation in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. So this thing, this event, this action is very, very real.

What Pope Francis Bergoglio and his felonious toadies are trying to do, namely coerce and intimidate every Roman Catholic priest to KNOWINGLY distribute Holy Communion, which is the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, physically substantially present in the Host and the Chalice, to people in a state of open, unrepentant mortal sin, is EXACTLY what the author of the Remnant piece above says it is: THE DESECRATION OF THE EUCHARIST CARRIED OUT BY THE PRIEST WITHIN THE MASS ITSELF.

Put another way, what this will do is render officially, formally sacreligious almost all of the Masses of priests who go along with this evil and nefarious plot. The hallmark of the satanic Black Mass is the total inversion of the Rite with the climax being the desecration of a stolen Consecrated Host. These Masses would NOT be Black, because in a Black Mass, the participants must have the positive intention of worshiping satan. However, one can clearly see the subtle hand of the Enemy at work here, and one can’t help but think of the term so popular today: Fifty Shades of Gray.

By going along with the Bergoglio-Kasper plan, these priests will put themselves into schism. As we know from the schismatic churches of the East (Russian Orthodox, Greek Orthodox, Coptic, there are dozens), the Eucharist is still confected at their Liturgies, albeit ILLICITLY. But none of these ecclesial communions engage in anything even remotely close to the conscious, mandated, coerced desecration of the Eucharist. Even I, in all of my ecumenical rigidity, would never even countenance such an appalling accusation.

Not only do I now countenance this accusation with regards to the Bergoglio-Kasper plan, I publish it, in writing, for all the world to see, because I can see no way around it. Further, it seems to me that if ever there was an event that warranted serious-minded people assigning significant probability to it of being the Abomination of Desolation, the DESOLATING SACRILEGE which shall “defile the sanctuary of strength”, brother THIS IS IT. This is a full-out assault, not only on the Sixth Commandment, not only on the Sacrament of Matrimony, not only on the Family, but, I think, more to the point, this is a full-out attack on the priesthood, The Mass, and Our Blessed Lord in the Eucharist.

I have written here previously that Pope Francis Bergoglio is a profoundly unintelligent man, and I stick with that statement 100%. This plot, having taken over a century to unfold, requiring the cooperation of entire nation-states and their governments, along with the media, to prime the mass populace into denying marriage, family, and now even gender, and into embracing every possible perversion of sexuality as a “human right”, with the actual, true end goal being nothing less than the SYSTEMATIC DESECRATION OF THE EUCHARIST BY PRIESTS WITHIN THE MASS ITSELF is so diabolically brilliant that it can only be the product of an angelic intelligence.

Further, one must remember that Bergoglio didn’t just suddenly appear out of nowhere. He is a product of the heresy of Modernism, the “synthesis of all heresies” as Pope Saint Pius X referred to it. Further, he is a direct product of the Communist infiltration of the Church, and Bergoglio himself is a materialist, steeped in Peronist-Fascism, a Marxist political system, remarkable for its truly Machiavellian, populist playbook. Finally, Bergoglio is at minimum highly tolerant of, if not actively sympathetic toward the Sodomite Mafia. The man he handpicked to run not only the residence where he lives, Casa Santa Marta, (famously rejecting the Papal Apartments in the Apostolic Palace to the swoons of the useful idiots), but also appointing this man as the head of the Vatican Bank, Monsignor Battista Ricca, who is a flagrant sodomite, having carried on an open affair with an ex-Swiss Guard named Patrick Haari, in Montevideo, Uruguay (just across the bay from Buenos Aires), AND having been caught in an elevator with a boy prostitute. Bergoglio’s retention and promotion of Ricca in the summer of 2013 after news of his scandalous past as Bergoglio’s neighbor in Montevideo broke was a clear signal to the sodomites that Bergoglio was on their side and ready to play ball.

So, here is how I will personally deal with this if it happens. You can take this or leave it.

IF this Bergoglio-Kasper plan is brought to fruition, I will refuse, AS POLICY to attend any Mass celebrated by a priest who has not, either personally or through his order, fraternity or society, made a positive statement of rejection, refusal and resistance to the Bergoglio-Kasper plan, and made a positive statement of fidelity to the teaching and Magisterium of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, the Body and Bride of Jesus Christ. I suspect this is what Cardinal Raymond Burke was referencing when he said, “I will resist.” And this is also what I suspect Pope Benedict XVI was referencing when he said that the Church was going to become “very compact”.

To be present at such a Mass, where Our Blessed Lord in the Eucharist was being knowingly desecrated by the priest at the distribution of Holy Communion, would be a grave, grave sin.

And PLEASE REMEMBER that these lines will NOT be drawn strictly down the Novus Ordo – Traditional Mass line. There will be groups and priests who celebrate the Traditional Mass who will capitulate on this, too. I suspect that MOST, but not all, Novus Ordo priests will capitulate to Bergoglio, if it comes to that, and that MOST of the Remnant Church will be tied to the Old Rite, but the delineation will not be perfect along that line. There will be crossovers on both sides. One will have to do one’s due diligence.

Bottom line, this Bergoglio-Kasper plan is nothing less than the coming to fruition of a satanic plot to utterly dismantle the Church Militant from the inside-out; the priesthood, the episcopate, the papacy, the Mass and the Eucharist, all in one final coup de grace, after over a century of preparation.

Is this The Abomination of Desolation? It is the strongest candidate in all of Church history, and thus CANNOT be dismissed or ignored as such.

Let us conclude on a hope-filled note by repeating Daniel 11: 32…

And such as deal wickedly against the covenant shall deceitfully dissemble: but the people that know their God shall prevail and succeed.

Actually it can be dismissed and ignored pretty handily. One of the great mistakes people make is to assume that a bit of biblical prophecy is not only unfolding in their time, but that a particular cause they believe in or oppose perfectly fits what that prophecy is about.

Protestants do it all the time.

She spelled it wrong, it is the “Obamanation of Desolation.” And it is already here.

True. Another mistake is to dismiss such possibilities out of hand.

Priests have been knowingly doing this anyway for a long time. Anytime they see a liberal politician in their church having communion they know.

No.

1) After all you could only make that mistake once if at all. Every other time you would be right.

2) As long as you have faith in Christ, embrace correct doctrine, and live as you should, you will lose exactly nothing no matter how often you misunderstand a fulfillment of any particular prophecy from the Old Testament.

Bergoglio is intelligent, and he knows EXACTLY what he is doing, the same that Obama is trying to do to the United States. Bergoglio (I will not call him Pope) is a Gramsciian Marxist, and is part of the deliberate Marxist infiltration of the Catholic Church. I may be a Southern Baptist, but I still pray for Cardinal Burke and others resisting this assault of “modernism”.

Here is Matthew's account of that prophecy from the Lord:

"When therefore ye see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let him that readeth understand), then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains" - Matthew 24:15-16

Luke's account of that prophecy answers the question about the abomination of desolation:

"But when ye see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that her desolation is at hand. Then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains;" - Luke 21:20-21

The following also helps us understand this prophecy of Jesus:

"Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished." - Matthew 24:34

"Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all things be accomplished." - Luke 21:32

Sorry to take all the fun (and profit) away from the speculators.

Why would God see fit to include details regarding the end times in Sacred Scripture if not to prepare the Church to recognize the signs?

The abomination occurs inside the 3rd Temple... Jewish Temple I might add... in Jerusalem by the anti-christ. One can debate whom/what the anti-christ is but not where the action is taken.

Ann might be knowledgeable regarding the CME, but she is definitely not knowledgeable about the Bible. From her other religious writings it appears that she only reads and writes what the Catholic Church says regarding the Bible.

One really good reason why in any study you must go back to the original documents for analysis.

Only one who ignores the warnings of Our Lady at Fatima would have such a pollyanna attitude.

See, I think this happened already with the 1968 Rites and the Novus Ordo Mass.

Maybe you should develop thicker skin. Maybe you should have read the whole article. Maybe you should have checked out who the author is. Ann Barnhardt is a traditional Catholic. She is not some Catholic bashing Freeper.

We can already see these lines. Those priests that are completely in line with pre-Vatican II theology (sedevacantist, SSPX, R&R) vs those priests in line with or less likely to speak poorly of post-Vatican II theology (Novus Ordo, Indult groups).

Traditional Catholics in line with pre-Vatican II theology have been doing this sort of diligence for decades now.

Francis is just helping those see who haven't seen the need to do so as of yet.
