"It will truly have become the abomination of desolation spoken about in the
Bible."
This is the abomination of desolation:
Roman Catholic quote from 'Faith of Millions', a book commonly sold via catholic
bookstores and television:

The Faith of Millions:
"When the priest announces the tremendous words of consecration, he reaches up
into the heavens, brings Christ down from His throne, and places Him upon our
altar to be offered up again as the Victim for the sins of man. It is a power
greater than that of saints and angels, greater than that of Seraphim and
Cherubim. The priest brings Christ down from heaven, and renders Him present on
our altar as the eternal Victim for the sins of man-not once but a thousand
times! The priest speaks and lo! Christ, the eternal and omnipotent God, bows
his head in humble obedience to the priest's command."
In the old testament, a sacrifice was made by fire, but the Roman Catholic
church claims to bring 'fire down from heaven' in sight of men. In fact, they
typically put the host of the 'victim' (the wafers) inside a monstrance, a
device which has a bunch of flames surrounding a circle in a sunburst image,
further visually demonstrating the prophecy. And their priests wear two horned
hats called mitres or miters, which they call two horned hats when they are
ordained as bishops.
Its pure blasphemy and the heart of the Roman Catholic faith.
They've polluted the very basics of the gospel of Jesus Christ. And on top of
that, they put 'relics' of the 'saints' in their altars, which is generally a
euphemism for bones or dead body parts. No altars are 'consecrated' so the above
'mass' can be performed without relics, adding more blasphemy to it.
Another similar Roman Catholic quote:

"We see here that all the honours given to the prelate, or indeed to any other
celebrant in the external rite, show him to be the representative of our Lord
and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Stripped of all insignia he performs the greatest act
on earth; a power denied to the angels, a power possessed by a priest alone, the
power to change bread and wine into the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our
Lord. The power, in fact, to command Almighty God to be present on the altar,
before whom even the prelate, be he pope or bishop, kneels in humble adoration."
