Leviticus 18:22 – Abomination
RR ^ | 2/19/21 | Gary Ritter

Posted on 02/19/2021 11:03:02 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

In this day and age, this essay cannot be written and the words spoken; otherwise, the wrath of the woke crowd is aroused. Too bad. Let’s talk about what the Bible says about depravity.

Leviticus 18 is a forbidden chapter by anyone who desires to live according to the gospel of self and not the Word of God. The practices spoken of here are either perverted or ignored. After all, according to the cognoscenti of today, i.e., those who are the smartest and most informed people on the planet, the Bible is either a dead letter that has no relevance to our enlightened times, or like the Constitution, a living document that must be adapted to the cultural mores of our society. I’m not sure how they can have it both ways, but pretzels probably aren’t aware of how they’re twisted into shape either.

This chapter outlines God’s prohibitions against sexual practices that rise as such a stench in His nostrils that they literally make Him sick. Depravity seems like too tame a word. Here is what Websters says as a definition of depravity: “the quality or state of being corrupt, evil, or perverted.” It pertains to all that and more in the eyes of God.

We’ll take a moment and point out some verses in which God declared such perversions should not be done.

Leviticus 18:21

“You shall not give any of your children to offer them to Molech, and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.”

The sacrifice of children to pagan gods debased the value of life that God created.

Whether in pagan lands or Israelite, any people in ancient days who committed such an act aroused God’s great wrath. This sacrifice to Molech has carried forward to today through the abortion of unwanted children. These children are mercilessly killed on the altar of self – “my body, my choice.”

No, it’s not your body. It belongs to God, as does that life within your womb. America has sacrificed over 60 million children to this god of convenience. We have shed the blood of the innocent, and it cries out for vengeance.

Leviticus 18:22

“You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.”

God does not change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. There are civil laws that pertained only to Israel in the Old Testament, but God’s moral laws were not only for then. They remain in effect. Let’s be clear: God considers homosexuality an abomination. There are no loopholes and no homosexuality advocates who can alter that despite their warped logic. America has bowed its knee to the LGBT god; we worship this foreign entity with pomp and fervor, even having gone so far during the Obama Administration as to light up the White House in rainbow colors, mocking God in the process of celebrating homosexuality as the law of the land.

The powers that be at the highest levels of government have made the definitive statement that we are no longer a Christian nation. God will not allow this to stand.

Leviticus 18:23

“And you shall not lie with any animal and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to an animal to lie with it: it is perversion.”

Bestiality has always been an underground practice, but make no mistake, it has been present since the beginning and will gain favor as we near the Tribulation.

It is the height of perversion, which makes it all the more attractive to those who hate God. Sex is their god. Any way they can attain it, either with another human or via intercourse with an animal, they will do so, and in the process, spit in God’s eye. As this practice increases in popularity and probably becomes legal, it simply adds to the iniquities that God is surely recording as the final justification to punish America in its wickedness.

And how will God deal with this evil? As He did with every other nation on earth and the people of Israel. He spells it out in Leviticus 18:24-25:

“Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean, and the land became unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.”

America is already under this curse. We have transgressed the boundaries of decent conduct that God expects for humanity.

Depravity has overtaken the moral fiber of the inhabitants of this country. We have become degraded in our thinking, and the hearts of the populace are exceedingly evil – led into this state by the very people who should have guided this nation in a Godly manner. These individuals – the highest officials in government, even many religious leaders – have taken us to the very edge of the cliff. One little push, and America, which has already embraced every sin and depraved act possible, will fall to its death. Whatever this looks like in America, God will vomit us out of the land.

The only way for anyone to escape the destruction that comes with God’s wrath poured out upon an unbelieving, trespassing people is belief and trust in Jesus Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life. Every other path, including and especially committing these perverted sexual practices, leads to death.

I believe in the Holiness code of Leviticus “toebah” (“abomination”) is used only in regard to male homosexual behavior. In Ezekiel and other books of the prophets it is used with regard to a variety of sins.

How do you think Daniel used it?

It’s used 3 times in Daniel. All three times in conjunction with the word desolate or desolation. The meaning there is subject to some considerable debate. Looking at the context it seems to me to be referring to some sort of blasphemy or idolatry.

Thanks for the post RWC.

America has sacrificed over 60 million children to this god of convenience.

And each year now, this many murdered worldwide.

Those numbers are hard to swallow.
Living in these times makes me wonder just what is the breaking point for The Lord’s patience in all of this.

It’s mind-boggling to be honest.

I haven't been able to define it in Daniel, exactly, either. Maybe a misinterpretation? But I believe Daniel uses it to describe the coming desegregation of the temple. Christ refers to Daniel in clarifying His prophecy. Maybe the temple in Christ's prophecy is our bodies? That fits with the immorality of the times but not exactly the following:

So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ described by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand)...

I afraid the understanding escapes me...but future events may clarify.

It is. I've seen a number of estimates of around 1 billion since the black-robed roe-v-wade decision. That's more lives taken in less than a jubilee, than in all the wars and killing in recorded history. Quite a burden on one country's legacy.

If that doesn't bring down the wrath of the Almighty, I don't know what does. The shedding of blood is the one thing biblical history has shown causes Him to stir.

To clarify, that'd be the desecration of the 'second temple'. Not the third, some believe will be built. Tho that might be another layer to the Daniel prophecy. Hmm...

“I've seen a number of estimates of around 1 billion since the black-robed roe-v-wade decision.”

That number would have to be worldwide if it’s reliable at all. The highest estimates for America is a little more than a million a year since 1973 which would put the number around 60 million.

Correct, that’s the worldwide number since roe-v-wade.

There’s only one meaning that matters and that is God’s meaning.
He definitely despises man lying with man and women lying with women.....
We All know what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah.....

The link above has links to estimates. For sake of argument, 50 million deaths worldwide, for only 10 years, puts the number halfway to a billion worldwide. 2023 will be the Jubilee Anniversary of Roe-v-Wade (50 years).

There are many ruins of great antiquity that seem to show massive stone constructions that were inundated with enough hydraulic force to topple them. Such ruins can be found around the world. It seems to some, including me, that those ruins date back many thousands of years, perhaps to the time of the Biblical deluge of Noah's time.

The activities mentioned in this article and in the comments seem similar to the activities that were the cause of the destruction of most life. Perhaps these are the end times, when truth is considered a lie and lies are considered 'truth'. Woe to any who call evil good.

“The abomination of desolation” would be better translated as “Desolator” Standing where he ought not.

The Desolator, is the Serpent, Lucifer, Prince of Tyre, Satan, Prince of power of the air. The same, only this time he will literally inhabit. As Christ walked the Earth, Satan will also do so.

I know people will scoff or laugh at me, but we already have the example of what it will be like. A Church or great religion will put itself in the literal place of Christ. Forgiving sin, changing laws such as one of the 10 written in stone. A past Church example written and prophecied by Daniel that was cut-off from government power. It was Rome and the Papacy.

The next so called Beast will mimic that, and will be Church/State union that will control all great and small. You will not even be able to buy or sell, save you have the mark.

People don’t want to see it this way, because you hate a certain church, a cult it is called. Take the blinders off, truth resides in many places. When someone says Don’t you DARE look there, why are they doing that?

I myself am not a member of any denomination, just surveying the writings of all. These are just my thoughts, and maybe not the same as any other, but they are honest.

The word we use “Antichrist”, is not a name but a road sign. It means “instead of” Christ. Standing in the stead of our Saviour, where HE ought not. If you cannot be at a wedding, a friend may send you in his stead. It is really quite simple.

I don't know how much I agree with you, but thank you for your thoughts. Again, this is something, the meaning of which, almost completely eludes me.

I will spend some time looking at it from the angle you suggest.

Yes, but it includes moral sins and IIRC those predominate. See here Homosexual relations and the Bible>Leviticus

About 2k a day I think. Plus,



In 2018, men who have sexual relations with other men (MSM) accounted for 69% of all new HIV diagnoses in the United States and 6 dependent areas. Young gay and bisexual men accounted for 83% of all new HIV diagnoses in people aged 13 to 24 in 2018. 

Heterosexual men accounted for 7% of HIV diagnoses, and heterosexual women accounted for 16% of HIV diagnoses.

Also according to the CDC (chart), in 2017  male to male sexual contact was the mode of transmission in 93% of new HIV cases among male youth aged 13 to 24, and  MSM  accounted for 82% of diagnoses among males  and 70%  of all new HIV diagnoses, and 2 out of every 3 diagnoses in the United States.  Which is despite only representing approximately 4% of the male population). 

And which practice (historically)  has resulted in a greatly increased incidence of other infectious diseases   and premature death. And which practice is primarily responsible for more than 700,000 people with AIDS having died (as of 2017) since the beginning of the epidemic - despite decades of attempting to tame it into being "safe."  (Worldwide, 77.3 million people have contracted HIV and 35.4 million have died of AIDS-related illnesses since the beginning of the pandemic in 1981 (https://health.usnews.com/conditions/hiv-aids/articles/hiv-statistics)

In 2005, 28.7% of HIV-negative men reported sex without a condom, rising to 32.8% in 2008, 34.7% in 2011 and 40.5% in 2014. The overall trend was similar for HIV-positive men: in 2005, 34.2% reported sex without a condom, rising to 37.3% in 2008, 39.8% in 2011 and 44.5% in 2014. (https://www.aidsmap.com/news/may-2016/american-gay-mens-use-condoms-has-been-falling-decade-regardless-serosorting-or-prep)

There were 16,350 deaths in 2017 alone among adults and adolescents diagnosed with HIV in the United States and 6 dependent areas. [like as is usually the case with deaths attributed to the flu and COVID-19, deaths attributed to AIDS refers to killing indirectly].

In 2016 the rate of people living with HIV per 100,000 population was 368, with the death rate being 6. Male-to-male sexual contact made up  82.4% of HIV infections among males in 2017, while heterosexual contact made up 85.7% of HIV infections among females. The rate of Black males living with an HIV diagnosis is 5.6 times that of White males. The rate of Black females living with an HIV diagnosis is 17.6 times that of White females. The rate of Hispanic/Latino males living with an HIV diagnosis is 2.5 times that of White males. The rate of Hispanic/Latina females living with an HIV diagnosis is 4.2 times that of White females. (https://aidsvu.org/local-data/united-states)

The South has the highest number of people living with HIV, but if population size is taken into account, the Northeast has the highest rate of people living with HIV.

One of the diseases that is far more prevalent among MSM than other population groups is that of anal cancer, which is diagnosed in about 2 people out of every 100,000 people in the general population. In contrast, it is estimated that MSMs that are not infected with HIV are 20 times more likely to be diagnosed with anal cancer. HPV is present in approximately 65% of HIV negative MSMs and 95% of MSMs who are HIV positive. Anal cancer is caused by the same strains of HPV (Human Papillomavirus)  that cause cervical cancer in women. (https://cancer-network.org/cancer-information/gay-men-and-cancer/anal-cancer-hiv-and-gaybisexual-men)

More stats

God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified (Mt. 19:4–6) - and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with. Yet there is still room at the cross for all who will come to God in repentance and faith, and trust in the Divine Son of God sent by the Father, the risen Lord Jesus, to save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood, and thus be baptized and live for Him. Acts 10:36-47
