Babylon according to the Bible.

What do the 10 kings of Revelation 17:12-16 represent?

The 10 kings symbolize the nations of the world. The 10 toes of the image of Daniel chapter 2 and the 10 horns of the monster beast of Daniel chapter 7 symbolize the 10 kingdoms of Europe. However, the meaning is broadened in Revelation chapters 11 through 18 to mean all “the kings of the earth” or “all the nations.” (Revelation 16:14; 18:3.)

What does the symbolism of "frogs" mean in Revelation 16:13-14?

A frog captures its prey with its tongue, which could symbolize the counterfeit gift of tongues now sweeping the world. Please remember that miracles, including the gift of tongues, prove only one thing—supernatural power. But the Bible informs us that supernatural power can be from either God or Satan. It further explains that Satan, posing as an angel (2 Corinthians 11:14), will utilize supernatural miracles so effectively that almost the entire world will be deceived and follow him (Revelation 13:3). At present, he is using the counterfeit gift of tongues to weld together churches and religions of all kinds—including pagans. Each of these feels that the gift of tongues is proof of authenticity.

We Must Test the Spirits
The Bible warns that we must test the spirits (1 John 4:1). If they do not agree with the Bible, they are counterfeits (Isaiah 8:19-20). Further, the true gifts of the Holy Spirit are never given to one who deliberately and knowingly disobeys God (Acts 5:32). There is a true gift of tongues. It is a miraculous enabling to fluently speak foreign languages previously unlearned and unknown by the speaker (Acts 2:4-12). God uses this gift when needed to present His end-time message to those of other languages. It was needed at Pentecost because 17 language groups were in the crowd and His disciples didn’t know all of those languages.

Will the New Age movement play a major role in the final end-time conflict between good and evil?

Without a doubt! It is strongly involved with the occult, psychic phenomena, and spiritism. Spiritism will be a major factor in the closing drama of earth. Combined with the supernatural power of the counterfeit gift of tongues and allied with the end-time worldwide coalition of churches, spiritism will sweep the globe. The New Age belief in spirit communication and reincarnation is simply ancient paganism in new garb. Its belief in an immortal soul that can communicate with earth people is the same falsehood Satan told Eve in Eden: “You will not surely die” (Genesis 3:4).

It’s clear that God reveals activities of the antichrist, or papacy, in Daniel chapter 7 and Revelation chapters 13, 17, and 18. Is the antichrist mentioned elsewhere in Scripture?

Yes. The beast, or antichrist, power (or its activities) is referred to in at least nine prophecies of the Old and New Testaments: Daniel 7; Daniel 8, 9; Daniel 11; Revelation 12; Revelation 13; Revelation 16; Revelation 17; Revelation 18; and Revelation 19. Surely, when God stresses the same power nine different times, He wants us to listen!

Did Satan’s kingdom called “Babylon” originate at the Tower of Babel?

No. It originated when Satan rebelled against God in heaven. The prophet Isaiah characterized Lucifer at the time of his fall as the king of Babylon (Isaiah 14:4, 12-15). God has looked upon Satan’s kingdom as Babylon from the very beginning of sin. Satan’s avowed aim is to wipe out God’s kingdom and establish his own. Jesus said there are only two sides (Matthew 7:13-14). Every soul on earth will finally line up on the side of either Jesus or Babylon. It is a matter of life and death. Those who serve and support Jesus will be saved in His heavenly kingdom. Those who support Babylon will be destroyed. And there is very little time left for decision making. This is why heeding Jesus’ end-time warning against Babylon is so extremely crucial and urgent.

In Revelation 16:12, what is meant by the waters of the Euphrates River being dried up to prepare the way for the kings of the east?

Before the ancient kingdom of Babylon was captured by the Medians, the water of the River Euphrates, which passed underneath the walls of the city, was diverted into a man-made lake bed. This diversion permitted Darius’ army to capture the city at night by entering from underneath the walls through the empty riverbed. In the prophecies of Revelation, water symbolizes people (Revelation 17:15). Thus, the waters of the River Euphrates refer to the followers of “Babylon the great,” whose support dries up when they turn against Babylon with intent to destroy her (Revelation 17:16).

The Final Confederacy of End-Time Babylon.

According to Revelation 16, end-time Babylon will be a three-part confederacy, under the leadership of the Pope. The three components are the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet.

"And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty" (Revelation 16:13-14).

Ancient Babylon served as a symbol of end-time Babylon. Just like the warning to separate from ancient Babylon, so the warning will be repeated about end-time Babylon:

"Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD’s vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence. Babylon hath been a golden cup in the LORD’s hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad" (Jeremiah 51:6-7).

End-time Babylon cannot find its fulfilment in the ancient ruins of literal Babylon, even if the city were restored. Rather, Babylon represents the greater worldwide contempt for God that exists at the end of time. The components of Babylon will bind together in one final attempt at total world control and war against God’s Kingdom. The three components of Babylon represent Satan’s counterfeit system of worship and counterfeit trinity.

 

[phipps]

The Final Confederacy: End-Time Babylon's Components.

Summary: What are the components of end-time Babylon on the prophecy of Revelation 16, and what powers do they symbolize?

As the previous article above, The Final Confederacy explains, Revelation 16:13-14 discusses end-time Babylon's three-part cohort that will fight against God and His people. This article will explain each of the three components, and what they symbolize.

Dragon.
The Dragon is identified as Satan, and represents a hidden god, a counterfeit of God the Father. Satan has always wanted to usurp God’s power and position—to take the place of God. As the counterfeit God the Father, Satan now hopes to gain the allegiance of the world to overcome God’s kingdom.

His workings are disguised, and his power is made manifest through spiritualism in all its forms. In addition to the obvious manifestations of Satan through demons, spirits, and witchcraft, Satan also pulls people away from God to himself through the modern New Age movement, another form of spiritualism. This movement is one of the manifestations of the Dragon component.

Beast.
The Beast represents the false son or counterfeit of Jesus Christ. It is Roman Catholicism, claiming to be the representative of Christ on Earth.

• Just as Christ received a mortal wound at the cross, so the Beast received a mortal wound but lived.
• Just as Christ was raised from the dead, so the mortal wound of the Beast was healed.
• Just as Christ is to receive all homage, so the whole world will wonder after the Beast (the Papacy), and pay it homage.
• Just as at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow, so the Papacy today demands acknowledgement of its supremacy.

False Prophet.
The final component of Babylon is the False Prophet, which counterfeits the Holy Spirit. The best-known experience of the Holy Spirit in the Bible was Pentecost, when tongues of fire came down upon the disciples, filling them with the Holy Spirit, and empowering them to speak in tongues (languages) so they could spread the Gospel. The counterfeit holy spirit has a similar manifestation.

We have learned that the second beast of Revelation 13, America, will compel the world to worship the first beast, papal Rome, whose deadly wound was healed. America will play an important role in establishing the Papacy’s status as spiritual leader, and will comprise a part of the end-time Babylonian confederacy.

In Protestant America, we see manifestations of tongues and healings that aren’t being used for spreading the Gospel but are a counterfeit (this is world-wide too). These experiences are full of emotionalism and euphoria, but don’t actually glorify God.

Also known as Pentecostalism, these great miracles, signs, and wonders are the False Prophet’s way of unifying denominations under false doctrine.

When Christ prayed for unity within His Church, He never meant unity through compromise, but always unity in truth. The Protestant churches who join themselves to Rome by accepting papal supremacy become part of Babylon and thus form this third component of end- time Babylon, the False Prophet.

 

[phipps]

End-Time Unity.

Summary: The ecumenical movement may seem harmless on the surface, but Biblical prophecy shows us the dangers involved.

Religious unity, or ecumenism, is just another movement toward the establishment of Babylon, who will eventually persecute those who do not conform themselves to her. If ecumenism were simply a call for religious groups to stop the violence and hatred that has become much too common, then it would be a good thing. However, ecumenism is in fact a movement towards supremacy of the Papacy—the most violent religious body of all time.

The Papacy's Authority.
In 1547, John Knox had wise words of advice regarding the Papacy:

"Flee from Babel, if you do not want to partake in the destruction." Friedrich H. Brandes, John Knox, der reformator Schottlands (R. L. Friderichs, 1862). (German)

The papacy is the world’s highest religious authority. However, this status has not been achieved on the basis of truth but on the basis of compromise. Moreover, the religious principles and doctrines of the papacy constitute what the Bible calls the Babylon of the end times. The Second Vatican Council's Decrees on Ecumenism, given on November 21, 1964, proves that ecumenism is for the purpose of drawing all religions to Roman doctrine and authority:

"For [Protestants] who believe in Christ and have been truly baptized are in communion with the Catholic Church even though this communion is imperfect. The differences that exist in varying degrees between them and the Catholic Church-whether in doctrine and sometimes in discipline, or concerning the structure of the Church-do indeed create many obstacles, sometimes serious ones, to full ecclesiastical communion. The ecumenical movement is striving to overcome these obstacles...

"This is the way that, when the obstacles to perfect ecclesiastical communion have been gradually overcome, all Christians will at last, in a common celebration of the Eucharist, be gathered into the one and only Church in that unity which Christ bestowed on His Church from the beginning. We believe that this unity subsists in the Catholic Church as something she can never lose, and we hope that it will continue to increase until the end of time" (emphasis added).

Protestantism and other world religions, by their own admission, have joined forces with the Roman Catholic Church, thus returning to the “Mother Church.” By submitting to Rome’s authority, these religions have become part of Babylon. By acknowledging the pope’s leadership, they also acknowledge his doctrines (Romans 6:16).

This is not the true unity Christ spoke of. True unity is based on the Word of God and the dominion of God. Ecumenical unity is based on shared "spiritual" experiences and the power of human leaders.

The Bible warns about the three parts of Babylon: the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet. The False Prophet is the component of Babylon that will produce the false signs and wonders whereby the people will be deceived to follow the Beast and to receive its mark:

"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" (Revelation 19:20).

 

[phipps]

The Second Angel’s Message.

In Revelation 14, three angels give warnings to all the people of the earth. The Second Angel declares, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication” (Revelation 14:8).

Revelation 18 repeats the message of the Second Angel with the added admonition to separate from her:

"Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen...And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Revelation 18:2,4).

Revelation 18 is a message of separation from Babylon. The ecumenical movement contains a message of unity based not on doctrinal truth or the Word, but on social issues, liturgy, and a watering down of fundamental principles of Christianity. Those that want to join together without the Word as their basis become a part of the end-time conglomerate—Babylon.

Compromise may seem like a good way to avoid conflict, but is impossible if we are to follow God’s call to stand for truth. There are only three definitions of truth in the Bible: Jesus is the truth, His Word is the truth, and His law is the truth.

The reformers were willing to die for what they believed. They had studied the prophecies that clearly identify the papacy as the antichrist. Let us not reject the prophets and may the following words of Jesus not apply to us:

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not" (Matthew 23:37).

"The day is not distant, and it may be very near, when we shall all have to fight the battle of the Reformation over again." Henry Grattan Guinness, Romanism and the Reformation (Hodder and Stoughton, 1887): 1.

THE PROTEST CONTINUES BABYLON IS FALLEN IS FALLEN FROM TRUTH!!!

Why is spiritual Babylon fallen?? Because of her FALSE DOCTRINES.

What is the wine of Babylon?? It is False doctrines that make people spiritually drunk! They have eyes but don't see, they have ears but don't hear. Don't be deceived by these false teachings and traditions.

Jeremiah 51:7, "Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad."

The word MAD in the original Hebrew context from which it was translated means that the wine of Babylon turns you into fool.
These False doctrines has been engineered by the devil to ruin in the powers of mankind, so that they can never ascend to God's high calling upon our lives which is to reveal his GLORY (Isaiah 43:7).

Revelation 14:8, "And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication." (see Revelation 17:4 Golden Cup of Abominations).

Revelation 18:2, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."

Here are FALSE TEACHINGS of Babylon/Roman Catholicism.

How do we know they are false?? By comparing scripture with scripture.

1. Eternal hellfire.
2. Secret Rapture.
3. 10 commandments were abolished.
4. Antichrist has not come yet.
5. Confessing sins to priest.
6. Worship on Sunday.
7. Salvation by works.
8. Counterfeit Baptism.
9. Immorality of the soul.
10. State of the dead being able to contact dead relatives.
11. Spirit guides.
12. Meditation.
13. Occultism.
14. Prosperity Gospel.
15. Gay marriage.
16. New age movement.
17. Papal infallibility.
18. Papal primacy.
19. Prayer to saints.
20. Purgatory.
21. Sacred traditions equal to scripture.
22. Indulgences.
23. Celibacy.
24. The communion elements become the actual body and blood of Christ- Eucharist.
25. Only Rcc has ability to interpret scripture.
AND MANY MORE.

Who are Part of Babylon (See Revelation 16:13).

The dragon = Satan, working through SPIRITUALISM.

The Beast = The Roman Catholic church system ( PAPACY Rev 13:1-3).

The False Prophets = Apostate protestantism.

Many of God's people must still be in Babylon, "COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE" ( REVELATION 18:4-5).

Jesus said, John 10:16, "And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd."

Come out of Babylon, God's people before it's too late.

THOSE IN BABYLON WILL RECEIVE THE 7 LAST PLAGUES!!!

The plagues are soon to fall upon this world and human probation is soon to come to a close. But did you know who the plagues are specifically for? Most professed Christians believe the plagues are going to fall upon the wicked world in general. And yet the Bible tells us otherwise! Take a look:

Revelation 18:1-4, "And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird ... And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of HER PLAGUES."

Who specifically are the 7 last plagues for? Babylon. Which is the Roman Catholic Church and the fallen Protestant churches and the whole world who have held onto false teachings of Rome and united with Rome in this ecumenical movement, committing fornication with the world and it's leaders. Which is why God is calling HIS PEOPLE to come out! Yes! His people! Which shows Babylon to be the 'fallen' churches, and God is calling out His people who are still caught in these apostate churches and the world that has rejected God, so that they do not receive of the plagues that are coming upon them.

Come out, come out! And seek the Lord with all your heart while He may be found! So what must we do? We are told in Isaiah 55 to 'seek the Lord', to 'forsake our sinful ways and thoughts and return unto the Lord.' In Jeremiah 29:13 we are told that we will FIND the Lord when we 'search for God with all our heart.' The first of the 'greatest' commandments tells us to 'love the Lord our God with ALL our heart, with ALL our soul, with ALL our strength and with ALL our mind' (Luke 10:27). This means total surrender to the Lord and His ways. If we do this. If we seek the Lord with all our heart, praying, studying and seeking life through faith in Christ, then we will find Him and He will save us! Look at what God's remnant people - the wise virgins - who gain victory over this world do:

Revelation 14:1 "And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads ... These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb."

Do you see what these do? Do they follow the world wherever it goes? No! Do they follow the churches wherever they go? No! They follow the Lord Jesus Christ wherever He goes. They are not deceived by the teachings and ways of man, because they have their eyes fixed upon Christ. He is their teacher and leader.

The bridegroom is coming! And that door of mercy is soon to be closed. Let us seek the Lord with all our hearts while He may be found. Let us be wise virgins and have our lamps trimmed (sin trimmed away from our lives) and filled with oil (life filled with the Spirit of Christ) and be ready in Christ.

Revelation 15:5-8, "And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled." This point of time reached, mercy no longer pleads. The intercessions of Jesus before the throne and his invitations to sinners to come and find pardon, have ceased ... O, sinner! O, careless professor! Now is the time to prepare for this most solemn and fearful event. Now a compassionate Saviour pleads the merits of his own blood before the mercy-seat. Now he invites you to come and wash in the fountain, so freely opened, and at such a cost! But abused mercy will ere long cease to plead. The time will soon come when that blood that has been slighted and trampled under foot will cease to atone for the guilty." (The Signs of the Times, June 24, 1880, p.283)

 

[phipps]

Final urgent appeal from Jesus to his faithful people in Babylon.

In Revelation 18:4-5, "The voice of the Holy spirit calls God's people to awaken from their sleep. They must separate themselves from those churches soon to suffer the just reward of their sins. There are millions of sincere Christians in BABYLON who have not yet heard this warning Message. These people love the lord supremely, and Jesus says they are His children.

Will God's people listen to this voice and come out of BABYLON? YES! Jesus says, "And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me" (John 10:16, 27).

The people of God will be like Matthew when he was sitting at his table receiving money as a publican. When Jesus passed by, He said "Follow me". And he left all, rose up and followed him (Luke 5:27-28).

When called out of BABYLON, where should a Christian go? Find the people who keep God's Commandments, have the faith of Jesus, and are preaching the THREE ANGELS MESSAGES worldwide and join them (Revelation 14:6-12).

Once a person discovers God's true Endtime church, is it necessary to become a member? Acts 2:47, "And the LORD added to the church daily such as should be saved."

We are called into one body (Colossians 3:15).
That body is the church (Colossians 1:18)
We enter that body by Baptism (1 Corinthians 12:13).
It is just as imperative to enter God's church today as it was to enter the Ark in Noah's day (Genesis 7:1).

JESUS will call all His faithful, honest followers to come out of BABYLON. They will hear His voice, respond, and enter His one true, Endtime Church.

 

[phipps]

BABYLON IS CHARGED WITH COMMITTING 'fornication' WITH THE KINGS OF THE EARTH!!!

Revelation 17:2, "the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication."

Revelation 17:18, "And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth."

VATICAN CITY has diplomatic relations with virtually all the world's nations.

The papacy is so influential and powerful that nearly every major country consults her before making major policy moves. "Her large diplomatic corps maintains relations with more than 100 nations." (U.S. News and World Report, October 30, 1978, p. 24)

The Vatican now has 'Diplomatic RELATIONS' with 183 Nations. Only 13 left for her to have FULL UNION with the whole world!
"I learned much from the Order of the Jesuits, said Hitler ... Until now, there has never been anything more grandiose, on the earth, than the hierarchical organization of the Catholic Church. I transferred much of this organization into my own party." (Hermann Rauschning, former national-socialist chief of the government of Dantzig: 'Hitler m'a dit', (Ed. Co-operation, Paris 1939, pp.266, 267, 273 ss).

So this is a church that has influenced kings throughout the past 2000 years and continues to have 'diplomatic relations' with nations all over the world. Now we know from history that the popes of the Roman Catholic Church certainly had 'authority' over the kings of the earth, which is how the Catholic Church was able to have so many Christians killed during the dark ages and inquisitions.

Take a look at this quote from 2007, "The Catholic Church is the only religious institution that can enter into diplomatic relations and that interests itself in international rights, acting through the Holy See, an international sovereign subject of singular characteristics." (Monsignor Pietro Parolin, Undersecretary for Relations with States).

This is an amazing quote in which the Catholic undersecretary unwittingly confirms the Roman Catholic Church as being the whore of Babylon! It is the ONLY religious institution that can have diplomatic relations with the 'kings of the world'. Amazing!

Also, the inhabitants of the earth have certainly been made drunk with the false teachings (wine) of the Catholic Church. Not only are there over 1 BILLION Catholics deceived by her teachings, even the majority of Protestant Christians still hold onto some Catholic false doctrines.

In Revelation 17:3 Mother Babylon pictured as riding on the BEAST. Red dragon( Satan) in Revelation 12 also represents the Roman Empire, which started out as Pagan Rome, then became Papal Rome. So which civil power does Revelation 17 tell us the woman gets her 'seat' and 'authority' from? Rome! And who did the Roman Catholic Church get her seat and authority from? Yes, Rome!

The the kings of Europe gave their power to the Papacy during the dark ages, and as we are seeing today, are giving their power over to the Papacy once more! In Revelation 13:1-10, Jesus portrays the papacy as a combination of church and state. Jesus depicts the church (the harlot) and state (the beast) as separate entities, though related. The woman is astride the beast, which signifies that the church is in control of the state.

The whore of Babylon, the 'MOTHER' of harlots is the Roman Catholic Church, and the fallen Protestant churches are her 'daughters'. No other church, religion, kingdom or institution matches this 'mother of harlots' like the Church of Rome does.

God is calling His people out of Babylon. It's not just the Roman Catholic Church that God is calling His people out of. The majority of Protestant churches have now 'fallen' also and are part of Babylon, as the 'daughters.'

There is a great ecumenical movement happening today that is uniting all churches and faiths together. So if your church still teaches the 'wine' of Babylon and accepts this ecumencial movement, then you need to come out of that church also!

END TIME FACT!!!

Daniel 2, "Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image .. This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet."

In Daniel 2, verses 31-45, we have a prophecy of all the different kingdoms that were to rule the world from the time of Babylon, right up until the end of the world and the second coming of Christ (destroying rock). And where are we today? We are in the feet of the image. Amongst the divided kingdoms of the world.

So this prophecy alone tells us that this generation is living in the "end times". And when did the "age" of the feet begin? In A.D.476. And as this image confirms, this is the LAST "age" before the end. So this world has been in the "last age" for over 1500 years! So we are now in the very toes of the image, awaiting the "destroying rock", which is Christ's eternal Kingdom at the second coming.

We have been in the last age for over 1500 years! Conflict and war rages across the globe. Disaster after disaster unfolds upon the nations. Economies are collapsing around the world. Animal life is diseased and dying. And wickedness and sin is rampant. Do you have eyes to see what is happening? God is giving us plenty of warning!

The One World Government.

Many people, including Christians are waiting for a one world government to be set up, that will rule the earth. Yes, there is no doubt that the powers of this earth are trying to set up a one world government that will totally rule the world and they will succeed to a certain extent to be able to enforce the mark of the beast. But the world will never become united under a single world nation again like in the past under Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. You see, God revealed to Daniel that Rome would be the last single one world ruling kingdom. After Rome, on this great image, we have the feet of iron and clay. Now what did Daniel say about the feet?

Daniel 42-43, "And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay."

After Rome fell, it split into the kingdoms of Europe. Now we know that people in the past have tried to unite Europe into one nation to rule the world, and they will continue to try like the European Union and United Nations are doing today, but as we can see from the prophecy of Daniel 2 above, they shall not 'cleave one to another' and shall not succeed. The leaders of this world can try all they like to form a one world united ruling nation, but if God has shown through bible prophecy that it cannot happen again, then it won't. Don't get me wrong, the nations of this world will come together in "agreement" for a short time to force the laws of the beast (Roman Catholic Church) upon the world, as it says in Revelation 17:12-13 that the ten kings shall give their power to the beast and reign with the beast for "one hour".

In Revelation 13 one of the end time beast powers (America) causes the earth to receive the mark of the beast (mark of Roman Catholic Church), and any who refuse, will be killed. So we will have two earthly "powers" so to speak in the last days. The sea beast of Revelation 13 (Papacy) that gets it's power from the "ten kings" (kingdoms), and the earth beast of Revelation 13 which is America. But notice that Daniel says this final earthly power will be partly strong from the iron of Rome, and it will also be weak from the clay and it won't be able to cleave together properly. Therefore this "agreement" between the kingdoms will only last a short time. The only completely united single ruling kingdom that is coming is the Kingdom of Christ Jesus, which will smash the kingdoms of this earth to pieces and will reign forever more! Praise God!

Keep in mind that the power of Rome, the iron in the feet, would continue to the end. So the prophecies of Daniel reveal that we are living in the last 'age'. There are no more earthly kingdoms to be setup after the feet of Nebuchadnezzar's image, which is where we are today. One day soon, Jesus will return as that 'rock' and will destroy the kingdoms of this earth and replace it with His Heavenly kingdom. This is the kingdom we need to be watching and waiting for. This is an everlasting kingdom!

We MUST get ready now. God is looking for a holy people who He can use to bring glory to Him in these last days. A people who are prepared, like the holy people of old, to stand up for the truth. A people who will not conform to the things of this world. A people who will walk in the "old paths" and give their ALL (mind, soul, body and strength) to Christ Jesus. God WILL have a people in these last days who "keep the commandments of God AND the faith of Jesus" (Revelation 14:12).

 

[AspiringSoul]

1) The Vatican is ROME ie the Beast...
The ashkenazi jewish elite (and by that i mean occultists, i mean sorcerers, i mean money men, i mean serious movers not just average rabbi) are the Whore of Babylon.


2) Jeremiah 2 & 3, the jewish nation (or it's leaders at least) are referred to as the Adulteress(whore/prostitute). God specifically marks out 'her' spiritual infidelity.
Why would the CHURCH of Rome become a woman/whore? this designated term comes from the original bridgegroom/wife relationship between God and Israel and Judea.
NEVER in the new testament, was a church referred to in the feminine. This has only ever applied to Israel and Judea.
Look at Revelation 2 and 3, where does the holy spirit refer to any of the 7 churches in the feminine?
When did Paul refer to any of the churches he wrote to, in the feminine?

So going back to Judea...
in Zechariah 5 she is called 'the wicked woman' who is taken to THE LAND OF SHINAR/BABYLON.
'to set her house there'.
The same chapter speaks of the THEIF, THE ONE WHO SWEARS FALSELY
that my friends, is money lending, usury..and the one who borrows what he can't repay. That is the curse.

this is why islam is the true religion, not a stone left untouched, islam covered every single topic, albeit in ways the common pleb wouldnt understand.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Mas'ud: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) cursed the one who accepted usury, the one who paid it, the witness to it, and the one who recorded it. (Book #22, Hadith #3327)

Zech 5
And he said to me, “This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished. 4 The Lord Almighty declares, ‘I will send it out, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of anyone who swears falsely by my name. It will remain in that house and destroy it completely, both its timbers and its stones.’”

yeh, the wood/stones theme, again highlighted in Jeremiah 2 and 3..aswell as in Habakkuk 2 which is the BABYLON connection again.

Hence the following hadith completely makes sense in light of biblical symbolism
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the jews and the Muslims would kill them until the jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the jews. (Book #041, Hadith #6985)



islam is level up game. the ave muslim who hasnt taken time processing all this info, wouldnt know..but people like me who have been clued up from a young age, we are far superior arbitors of all things biblical than any xtian living. fact.

show me a xtian who knows the bible better than me? not a single one...and i swear im not saying this from ego, but pure confidence in islam as the level up religion. It is as Jesus said in John 16...

12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 1
literally the holy spirit functions through people, so it would require a person or people to
-guide you into ALL THE TRUTH
-reveal in depth prophecies
-come with divine revelation

christianity is so flawed that they made the holy spirit into co-equal in Godhead with the Father, yet here the holy spirit can only 'speak what he hears'....
or you can adjust this with the knowledge that the holy spirit functioning through a chosen prophet is what it means by 'speak only what he hears'.

3)the purple/scarlet and gold colours are commonly used to show it's the vatican, but these are priestly colours from the Torah, hence they are more authentically rabbinic and hence jewish, than they are christian or vatican.
all christian churches have these colours too.

4) The kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication."


the wine of her fornication...go back to Habakkuk 2, which was the condemnation from God against the Chaldeans (who the jews then served for 70 years and turned into)

“Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors,
pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk,
so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!

this is highlighting immoral techniques used to gain knowledge and information against other people. This is textbook jewish...
DRUNK ON THE WINE OF HER ADULTERIES...
so we have music, tv, hollywood, media,, news and pawn controlled and pushed by jews..

the idea that the pope and vatican are 'making the world drunk' is just absurd.

4) it talks of the worlds richest people...again, jews.

5) who murdered the prophets and saints?
you say it was rome? but back then rome wasnt even christian hence that was before the catholic church.
in fact in Luke 21 Jesus blamed the synagogue of satan for this

They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name.
literally the apostles were murdered by Rome because that's what the jews demanded.

the BEASTS of Daniel, are only relevant in the context of the jewish temple
Rome had many more emperors, but Daniel only mentions 10 because that is how many of them precided over the temple, with the final one being Titus, technically he was never the emperor over the temple, but the 'little horn' ie the son of Vespasian who was emperor at the time.

Daniel's prophecies are exceptionally accurate, no doubt...but xtians just butcher the whole thing.
Whilst Rome exists, the end times Beast/one world government will only come when the jewish temple is set up..and that also spells the way for the false jewish messiah.

the reason why the false messiah/beast of the earth has to be jewish, is because they rejected Jesus and hence require a different figure. Zechariah 11 tells us so...
but then why would a jewish messiah figure betray his own people and cause their destruction?

it's because...
the elite are of a reptilian/satanic state of mind...and hence they are driven by that original reptilian evolutionary nature, for total dominance, territorial control
The IMAGE OF THE BEAST was created by reptilians both human and spirit...in order to serve their goal of total domination.
In order to create it, they had to mass sacrifice humans to it..hence the 2nd Horseman of Rev 6 was the 20th century bloothbath culminating the end of colonial era.
the occultists who created this image, were the synagogue of satan, not the vatican.
in order for this thoughtform to serve it's creators, it has to weaken humanity..and feed off their lifeforce.
it acheives it through hedonism, the sexual revolution, pawn and by inciting humans to murder and hate each other. all those powerful emotions and sexual energy feed the thoughtform and cause it to grow stronger. In turn, it becomes a very powerful 'God like' (i mean this in a relative sense) entity dominating the whole world and giving power to those who facilitate it's growth.

so it's like 'you fed me, good, i reward you'.
well...what happens when a guy comes along and he posesses even more of that reptilian nature than any other human? he wants that image to work for him exclusively.
he has to become the biggest facilitator of all and he does that by sacrificing his own race.

Then the Lord said to me, “Take again the equipment of a foolish shepherd. 16 For I am going to raise up a shepherd over the land who will not care for the lost, or seek the young, or heal the injured, or feed the healthy, but will eat the meat of the choice sheep, tearing off their hooves.

17 “Woe to the worthless shepherd,
who deserts the flock!
May the sword strike his arm and his right eye!
May his arm be completely withered,
his right eye totally blinded!”

remember this is the figure who stands in the temple and declares himself GOD.

1) The Vatican is ROME ie the Beast...
The ashkenazi jewish elite (and by that i mean occultists, i mean sorcerers, i mean money men, i mean serious movers not just average rabbi) are the Whore of Babylon.


2) Jeremiah 2 & 3, the jewish nation (or it's leaders at least) are referred to as the Adulteress(whore/prostitute). God specifically marks out 'her' spiritual infidelity.
Why would the CHURCH of Rome become a woman/whore? this designated term comes from the original bridgegroom/wife relationship between God and Israel and Judea.
NEVER in the new testament, was a church referred to in the feminine. This has only ever applied to Israel and Judea.
Look at Revelation 2 and 3, where does the holy spirit refer to any of the 7 churches in the feminine?
When did Paul refer to any of the churches he wrote to, in the feminine?

So going back to Judea...
in Zechariah 5 she is called 'the wicked woman' who is taken to THE LAND OF SHINAR/BABYLON.
'to set her house there'.

Not according to the Bible. Literal Jews are not even mentioned in end time prophecy at all. Why? Because in the New Covenant the definition of Jew changed. Literal Jews are no longer a chosen nation and haven't been for 2000 years. Jews in the the New Covenant are all those (regardless of genes, race or nation) who believe in and have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour and follow His precepts. It was always God's plan from the beginning that the gospel be spread around the world through Israel and the Gentiles would join Israel. God promised Abraham and re-affirmed it with his son Isaac, “In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed” (Genesis 26:4). That happened in the New Covenant and the gospel spread around the world and Israel became spiritual not literal.

Romans 2:28-29, “For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.”

Galatians 3:28, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

The only power that fits the little horn power of Daniel 7, the beast of Revelation 13 and Babylon is the papacy. There are two parts of Rome in the Bible. There is pagan Rome, then there is papal Rome. Both hated/hate civil and religious liberty. The papacy came out of pagan Rome but then it got more powerful and through it Satan persecuted Christians for 1260 years (this is not only biblical but historical too). In the end time a second beast/power will work together with the papacy to persecute all those who refuse to obey their rules and choose to obey God instead. That is the USA which is the only and last super power left in this world.

Literal Jews are not as powerful as many think without the papacy and the USA.That is why they are working to unite together to gain more power so they can have complete control in this world. They will succeed up to a point as the Bible tells us, most people will give them their allegiance and will be lost forever, but God's people will never yield to them even when they start the persecutions again.

What I'm posting about Babylon is the truth of the Bible, and the Bible is always right when it comes to prophecy. This is how I know the Bible is the truth and the God of the Bible is the true God. If God's Word says its going to happen, it happened and will happen. Most end time prophecy has already been fulfilled by the way. Its very little that has to be fulfilled before Christ returns.

God bless.
