The Abomination of Desolation - St. Marys Coptic Orthodox Church

HIS END
145
OF LORDS. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried
with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of
heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the
great God; That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of
captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and
of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and
bond, both small and great. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the
earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him
that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the beast was taken,
and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the
beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast
alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant
were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which
sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with
their flesh.
What this is telling us is that it is the Lord himself who will fight against
the unholy trinity. The Lord himself shall excise that cancer called
Antichrist, Abomination of Desolation, the Beast, the little horn and
many other names out of the earth and send him straight to Gehenna!
St. Paul tells us so about his end:
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall
consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the
brightness of his coming. (II Thes 2:8)
Note the emphasis on the fact that it is not a human that will remove
him but the Lord Himself, “Who shall consume him with the spirit of
His mouth.” The word “pnevma” in Greek can be interpreted as either
spirit or breath. And I personally understand it in the latter sense
(breath of his mouth rather than spirit of his mouth, in this context). In
other words, the Lord will blow him away, all the way to Gehenna.
When St. Paul refers to the “brightness of His coming,” he is not talking
about the second coming, which will have to wait until Satan’s final
assault on the Church that we explained earlier. This appearance of the
Lord is a “special appearance” to rid the world of the Tyrant, in a
similar way to the Lord’s appearance to Saul on the way to Damascus,
although the outcome of the two appearances is quite different.
