THE JEWS WHO ARE NOT JEWS, are the followers of Jesus as the MESSIAH, as the Revelation was written against Jesus as the messiah.
But it always does, as it turns out.
. . . so this reference in the Bible does not automatically mean it's a Jewish church!
That is a Yiddish word derived from German.
. . . the Jews themselves speak of going to Shul . . .
Those are two different things, between a Jew, and Israel.
All of the promises from God in the Bible are directed to Israel, so Christian theologians who can see and acknowledge this problem, use the reasoning that they are 'spiritual Israel' so that God's promises then become made to Christians. I believe this is where Christians are claiming to be 'Jews'...
OK, where exactly "further along" does it say that?
. . . and it is said further along that they will not have finished going through Israel, which shows their flight will be in a northerly direction . . .
Jesus never mentions the seventy weeks prophecy of Daniel, just the "the abomination that causes desolation" (2011 NIV).
The Abomination of Desolation standing in the holy place heralds the start of the Tribulation, which lasts specifically for 1,260 days but it is said these days are shortened, otherwise no flesh would survive . . .
Which already happened in 70 AD.
. . . points to the fact that there will be survivors on earth during the Day of Wrath . . .
That isn't directly connected with the tribulation from the desolation, but was what would happen personally to the very people that he was talking directly to in that conversation, his disciples. They would be thrown out of the synagogues and beaten and eventually martyred.
The Son warned in Matthew 24:9 that the Tribulation would be over his name and that his followers would be hated and killed because of it.
This is all fantasy because the Bible describes nothing like that.
The Antichrist who stands 'against', as an enemy of the true Messiah, also stands IN his place hiding the true Son of God from common view . . .
You are talking about the church, period, because it believes those things, not just the Roman church.
and the main church guilty of this crime is the Roman Catholic church which promotes Jesus Christ, Christian deity, God the Son, second person of the Trinity, worshiped as God, as Easter and Christmas, etc.
Jesus was a Jew, and by definition would have been Kosher, or rather kept the various laws that we think of as Kosher.
Thus hiding from view the true Son of God, Yeshua the Messiah, who is kosher Jewish High Priest, who will lead his followers in worship of the one Creator God on the Sabbath and on the Biblical festivals or holy days.
"Son of perdition" doesn't mean son of Satan.
To cut a long story short, Satan gives his 'son', the man of perdition / beast from the sea, his power, throne and authority. The only RELIGIOUS throne in the world, is the position of Sovereign of the Vatican City... so this seat/throne of great power and authority is the Synagogue of Satan.
The Antichrist who stands 'against', as an enemy of the true Messiah, also stands IN his place hiding the true Son of God from common view . . .
This is all fantasy because the Bible describes nothing like that.
There is no prophecy about a throne, at least in connection with an earthly kingdom ruled by Satan or some sort of antichrist.
You are exactly right on this part.
If everything I said above can be proven to be correct, then it would make the Israeli government the most anti-semetic group of people in the world.
'Iesous' is not Greek Orthodox, it is Greek, which was the common language of the eastern Roman Empire of the time of Christ, including the Jewish Diaspora, which Jesus was part of, living in Egypt and gentile Galilee.
The name 'Jesus' is Late Latin, i.o.w. circa 3rd to 7th centuries AD, so it was never used of him in his lifetime! It's the Catholic version, of the Greek Orthodox version 'Iesous', from the Hebrew original, 'Yeshua'.
That is some pretty twisted logic but still doesn't reinforce your fantasy scenario of a fake christ.
The word 'antichrist' which is in the Bible, exactly describes this situation. The word 'anti' means 'against' and it also means 'in place of'. Thus 'antichrist' means 'in place of' who? Christ!

You make a good argument for the identity of an antichrist, but I think it has devolved into a myth of its own, really, and has nothing to do with the original biblical intent.
But that is not to say that they can not be identified as antichrist in biblical terms, because they do fit, in terms of not accepting Jesus as the Messiah.
It is being used as a figure of speech to mean power, not a literal throne.
Revelation 13:2 'And the Beast [from the sea] which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon [Satan*] gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority...'
John saw a dragon in vision.
In case you doubt that the reference to the 'dragon' above refers to Satan, this verse proves it. * Revelation 12:9 'And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world...'
So then what does it have to do with chapter 9 and the abomination of desolation?
In Daniel Chapter 7, the reference to 'time, times and half a time' is of each year being a 'time' = three and a half prophetic years [each of 360 days#], which is equal to 42 months, which is equal to 180 weeks, which is equal to 1,260 days. When you cross reference these instances mentioned in the Bible, you will get the cross-references referring to the Tribulation.
What?
When you cross reference these instances mentioned in the Bible, you will get the cross-references referring to the Tribulation.
I think they just redefined what "holy" means, to the point that it is a natural attribute of someone of their race.
But the original biblical intent also states that the Israelites were given the Holyland conditionally. The conditions were that they were righteous and righteous in the Bible is upholding the laws of God. This is another part that Zionists omitted on purpose.
