WHAT  IS  THIS  "DISGUSTING  THING"?  (Dan 11:31 NWT).
THE "SACRILEGIOUS ABOMINATION"? (Dan 9:27 Moffatt).

THE ABOMINATION.
The Moffatt Translation of Daniel 9:27 describes this abomination as sacrilegious. Sacrilege: Robbery or profanation of sacred building, outrage on consecrated person, violation of what is sacred. This outrage, perpetrated by the "disgusting thing" of unsealed JW 'elders' against anointed sons of God consecrated with His Spirit and members of the "temple" building of God, will continue until "finally the appointed doom falls upon the sacrilegious abomination." (11:31. 1 Cor 3:16,17). Concerning this appointed doom, it is written: "Here I am causing you to know what will occur in the final part of the denunciation, because it is for the appointed time of the end."  (8:19).

Through anointed messengers of God "the very thing decided upon" are these denunciations which "will go pouring out" upon members of the "disgusting thing that is causing desolation" "until an extermination". (11:31 & 9:27). Those causing desolation between God and mankind are those who sanctioned and those who removed anointed sons of God worshipping faithfully at His "altar". Faithful anointed ones are the holy place of God on earth, wherein the Spirit of God dwells. They were removed for observing the commandments of God and bearing witness to Jesus. (Rev 12:17). Commandments from our Lord Jesus are spiritual, such as those issued to "all the congregations of the holy ones" concerning the headship arrangement. (1 Cor 14:33-37). But  those "upon  the wing of disgusting things" choose to ignore these commands of our Lord. (1 Cor 14:36,37). These  apostate "sons of the robbers belonging to your people" officiate as priests and implement unscriptural doctrines that promote "Jezebel" women in JW congregations throughout the world. (11:14). In turn, these women falsely present themselves as living examples of holy women.

In Daniel 11:14 (Moffatt) it reads: "Wild spirits among your own nations shall start up to fulfil the prediction of the vision     only to be routed." One "vision" of theirs was the false prediction that the "seven times" of Daniel 4:16 was a period of 2,520 years (360 x seven "times" terminating with the beginning of Christ's rule in 1914. See JW book: 'True Peace and Security   From What Source?' pgs.75,76). But in their attempts since 1914 to promote themselves as the Kingdom of God, these "robbers belonging to your people" have stumbled in their wild predictions. Another "vision" of theirs was their false prediction that the "times" of Daniel 12:7 were linked to the "seven times" of Nebuchadnezzar, and they published this link many years before the "time of the end" that they incorrectly predicted. As Daniel 12:9 clearly states: "the words are made secret and sealed up until the time of the end".

With reference to a source of their false teaching, the footnote of Daniel 9:24 in the 1971 NWT Large Print Edition, that a "week of years" is mentioned in the Jewish Mishnah: Natural Jews do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, so how could they possibly know the meaning of prophecies relating to him when a "dulling of sensibilities" has happened to them to this very day?  (See Dan 9:24,25.  Rom 11:25,26).

It was not given to Daniel to understand the vision for the "time of the end". (12:9). The first vision in order of fulfilment in the book of Daniel was given to Nebuchadnezzar. The last vision concerning the "time of the end" was given to Daniel (which he did not understand) and is revealed to those today with spiritual insight. (12:10). The "disgusting thing" have violated the sanctity of Spirit anointed sons of God. The "disgusting thing" is the "sacrilegious abomination" carried on by unsealed 'elders' of the sect falsely calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses.
