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 also conclude the term abomination strongly refers to homosexuality. Daniel (no pun) uses it to describe the future desecration of the first temple by Antiochus IV Epiphanes (not the second I mistakenly posted above). So Christ clarifies his by referencing the prophet Daniel. First, why the need to do so? Second, what is/are the meaning(s)? Interestingly, He mentions, “let the reader understand.” I believe this is directed at those in that time. Could abomination stand for Obama-nation (who is strongly suspected of being a homosexual)? Much to digest for those interested in understanding this and other prophecies.

“Yes, but it includes moral sins and IIRC those predominate”

I’m not sure what you mean. All sins are moral sins by definition.

God works with Numbers.

Indeed, and tho the values may differ, the sets are what's important.

Seven days, seven weeks, seven years, two sets of seven, seven sets of seven, etc. A Jubilee year is the year following seven sets of 7 years, or the 50th year.

NY legalized abortion sometime in 1970. I don't know the exact date, but it was three years before the USSC legalized abortion for ALL of America. Deaths from the COVID plague began in the US in February, of 2020. Fifty years after NY legalized abortion. 2023 will be the 50th Anniversary of Rov-v-Wade. 2028 will be the 2,000th year since since the Crucifixion. It's all miraculous intertwined all the way back to Adam - unbelievably so, and another of God's ways of letting humankind know He is real.

The next day, the Senate passed the Assembly version of the bill. The day after that, April 11, [1970] Mr. Rockefeller signed it into law. ''The wives of the Senate and the Assembly put this bill through,'' he said.

That number is a bit like illegals in this country. I believe it to be old, not updated and way under reported.

We, the USA, and the world are due a very nasty judgment.

Declared to be sin also in the New Testament:

“Their women exchanged the normal practices of sexual intercourse for something which is abnormal and unnatural.

Similarly the men, turning from natural intercourse with women, were swept into lustful passions for one another. Men with men performed these shameful horrors, receiving, of course, in their own personalities the consequences of sexual perversity.”

(New Testament, Romans 1:26,27)

True about Leviticus.

But not true about the other books of the Pentateuch

Deut 24:4 says that it is “toebah” for a woman to divorce one husband, marry a second husband, and then divorce the second husband and remarry the first.

Deut 25:16 uses the word “toebah” in reference to cheating someone in the marketplace. The context has nothing at all to do with pagan temple practices. It is simply describing something revolting to God.

Psalm 88:8 speaks of God making a man a “toebah” to his own acquaintances, even while he was calling upon the Lord for deliverance

Prov 11:1 refers back to Deut 25:16 and repeats the fact that unjust practices in the marketplace are “toebah” to God.

Thanks for the ping. Can’t argue with scripture. As I have gotten older I think I have realized that we can’t change society anymore. Even Revelation and other parts of scripture tells us in this age we are in.... morality will continue to decline. We can’t back it up for any real length of time. To think we can make society more moral is kinda like ignoring or rejecting the biblical prophecies. What we can do, and what I think we are commanded to do..... is to tell individuals about the good new of Jesus death and resurrection, and the grace and salvation it means for those who accept him. I’m not saying we don’t vote for morality, or recognize and point out society’s decline... we should..... but we have to realize what scripture says is going to happen. We have to focus on individuals and teach, baptize, and disciple them in the way of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Just my humble thoughts.

On the side of Truth we draw Old Testement comparissons and attach New Testement Scriptures. As noted the author quotes NT Scripture, God, the same yesterday, today and forever.

On the other side of that equasion we have a cultural divide. Programmened by the media and a society that says give us Barabbas. Bowing at the altar of balack and sodom and gohmorah.

They reinforce these beliefs because they have been conditioned by new age philosophers posing as preachers (interject oprah and joel olsteen for examples)

Through their voluntary deceit they repeat the lie that God no longer oposses the gay life style in the NT.

Afterall, how could modern culture be wrong when it is so widespread? Its taught in schools as an alternative lifestyle and condoned from the pulpit.

As for abortion, they defend its process based upon the most marginal circumstances. Then readily seek to implement its acceptence in our public education outlets.

Jesus is about to call us home.

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.

Agreed. And people will wonder why the Tribulation judgments will be so severe.....

Yep.

What was once a shinning example of a Christian nation, in one generation, led the world to commit the greatest atrocities in mankind's history. How is that statement wrong?

Will Jeremiah 51 and Revelation 18 be fulfilled in our lifetime? There may be no stopping it now, but at least we know why.
