Abomination is sin.
Desolation is ruin.
Jesus said When you see the abomination of desolation stand in the holy place.
Sin standing behind the pulpit. Many churches today have committed adultery with the great whore, the mother of all harlots, the catholic church. When they allow her teachings to become part of their own it is a abomination.
Mason are a organization the was started by the catholics. So I'd say that is part of it.

The reference is to the image-crowned standards which the Romans set up at the east gate of the temple (A.D. 70), and to which they paid idolatrous homage. These ensigns were an "abomination" to the Jews, the "abomination of desolation."
Note that in the same Jesus monologue where Matthew and Mark mention the desolating abomination, Luke does not, but instead says "when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies". It's a reference to the Romans taking and destroying Jerusalem, which had already occurred when Luke's gospel was written.
Freemasonry didn't even exist then. Sounds like you're reading too many books written by "Bible College" grads (where the misinformed confuse the ignorant and perpetuate the inaccurate) instead of real Biblical literature authorities.

stunning answer Foxtrot. human beings seem to ignore that the Bible (Torah + New testomony) isn't a textual content that floated down from the heavens in very last type. that is a e book that develop into redacted with the help of many authors/editors over centuries of time. many of the teachings and truths contained interior it are emblemattic of the moral and civil subject matters of the time; and at the same time as there have been operative masons on the time, the organisation of "freemasonry" develop into no longer modern-day, that is a cutting-side descendant of an historic craft. to apply the note abomination provides honestly everyone sparkling perception into the concepts that wrote the question. perchance you should guage what the Church has performed to stay away from clergy from molesting little ones (i.e. no longer a lot, except cover them and flow them from parish to parish) the abomination you communicate of. certain some contributors are turning out to be their due lately, yet it really is purely a million,500 years too previous due.

The original abomination that causes desolation
occured in 167 B.C. a Greek ruler by the name of Antiochus Epiphanies who set up an altar to Zeus over the altar of burnt offerings in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. He also sacrificed an pig on the altar in the Temple in Jerusalem.
In this act he was attempting to place Zeus higher
then YHWH, and making the alter useless by sacrificing an unclean animal on the alter.
Many scholars believe this act will be repeated by the anti-christ who will place himself above Jesus, and try to get people to worship the anti-Christ instead of the real one.
The abomination that causes desolation is usually refers to future prophecy, and since the Freemasons have been around since the 17th century I seriously doubt this phrophecy refers directly to them. But any belief system that says all alters are equally valid, does make it easier for this prophecy to one day come true.

Freemasonry endorses no particular creed, and REQUIRES that all members study their "Volume of Sacred Law" to seek truth or enlightnement. for a Christin Mason, this requirement means that he must read and study the Holy Bible and use it as a guide to living a proper life. I would argue that this requirement creates stronger Christians (and a stronger Church) than goofball websites that take scriptures out of context and twist their meanings to fit the website creator's own political agenda.

Mason isn't a faith. Its an organization. Yes its "secret" but they actually are all about good works in the community. Its not a church, its a club. Big diff ppl.

I think this whole end of the world thing, is a man made thing, brought on by allowing the devil to control their lives. I think it will ultimately be one of the high secret society people that reeceives the devils power to rule the earth.
I don't think the world has to end so soon, but evil people are bringing it to an end quickly

I'm guessing you know nothing about Masons. Go ask one before you begin condemning them. They are probably more spiritual than you are.
