WHO IN THE WORLD IS..
In chapter 17, a
very candid chapter in the Bible book of Revelation,
God
paints
a most graphic picture of present-day, decadent Western
"civilisation", exported and fostered on the rest of the World by the
United States of America and her media!
This confusion of 'Americanism', or the mercantile worship of
Mammon or "Materialism", under the guise of selfrighteous
Judeo-Christian moralism of false religion, God Himself
pictures here as a fornicating whore named "Mystery,
Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots!"
She f-f-fornicates with all
the "kings
of the earth"
and "makes the Earth's inhabitants "drunk
with the wine of her fornication!"—Materialism!
Actually the word 'Babylon' literally means "Confusion",
and Western "culture" is in fact the greatest
confusion or "Great Babylon" that ever hit this planet!
This lurid woman rides on a seven-headed Beast with 10 horns
on its seventh head, a Beast that has manifested itself six
times before in history, in its six other heads, the mercantile
empires of Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome!
[See: the
7 Empires!]
The body of the Beast is the Devil or Satan himself, who has
always worked through Emperialism and its perpetrators, in order to
eventually unite the World under himself, in order to become
god over the entire human race!
He is almost there now, and will finally possess the AC to do
it! But he and his 10 horns will hate this hypocritical
whore, and burn her with fire! Yet they themselves,
—being also part of this "Babylon" of the West—will,
a little later during the Wrath of God, suffer a similar fate of being
burned as well! As everyone must reap what they have sowed! (See Revelation 17 in blue
column)
In
Revelation Chapter 18, God (through the 10 horns)
burns this Whore Babylon with fire in ONE DAY!
It is a localised fire, as it says that the kings of the earth
survive this fire, but stand far away from
it, "for
fear of her torment and smoke"
Normally man is more afraid of the fire than the smoke! This must be
special smoke! Nuclear Radiation?

"THAT GREAT CITY"?
Nah.
3:1
Zeph
3:1-5
Isa
23:8
"That
Great City" has always been around, those great capitals
and mercantile centers of all seven empires: Memphis,
Nineveh, Tyre, Babylon, Persepolis, Athens, Rome, and now its
last epitome: New York City? The USA?
This obnoxious cruel mix of religion and materialism has always
been around, where the priesthoods of their false religions always
worked hand in hand with their merchants, trying to mix God with
Capitalism, and Church with State! As Revelation 18:11 says so well:
"For your
merchants were the great men of
the earth; for by your sorceries
were all nations deceived."
WHO ELSE COULD SHE BE BUT...
 Could
Babylon the Whore be Iraq, just because of her ancient
name? Or the Vatican, as some believe, because
Rome is built on 7 hills? How in the World could Iraq ever
reign over all the Kings of the Earth? And is the Vatican
such a big market that all the merchants of the earth
would weep and mourn over her, when her buying power is
gone, because of this holocaust? This "Great
City" sounds a wee bit bigger than that! Don't you think?
But which Great
City really does reign over the
Kings of the Earth, with
credit from the IMF? Think it over! WHO ELSE could she be than
the United States of America!?—New York and urbanised America?
The biggest market in the World!
BABYLON'S FATE: NUCLEAR
STRIKE?
The Lord will eventually—toward
the end of the "Great Tribulation"—let the
Antichrist judge the USA because of her spiritual "fornication,
as it says of the "ten horns", "For
God has put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to
agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God
shall be fulfilled."
God uses them to punish "America the Whore!" Then it
will truly be "Bye Bye Miss American Pie!", and an end
to "Californication", as the unwittingly
God-inspired artists of today sing so prophetically!
He will let
the AC "cut off their prey,
the loot of the earth!" "And
the voice of thy messengers!"-—It sounds like the
Western Media, saddled and ridden by the rich lions, by whose
"sorceries all nations were deceived!"
The entire World!
In Revelation 18 it talks about "that great City
Babylon"--or "Babylon the Whore!"
It refers
to the entire Western Capitalist City System, but is epitomized in
America, the Great Society!
Also Nostradamus
saw that the Antichrist would nuke that "Great City",
the "New World" —Obviously the USA! Ultimately God will
destroy ALL of Babylon the Great City, as it also includes
entire former Christendom of the Western world, as His Word says, that
at the end of the Battle of Armageddon, He remembers
Great Babylon: "And
there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings;
and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since
men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities
of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in
remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine
of the fierceness of his wrath."
Rev.16:18
WHY
SUCH A TOUGH JUDGMENT FOR THE U.S?
Because "she
says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no
sorrow." This
self-glorifying "God bless America" attitude is worsened by
the fact that "in her was found the
blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were
slain upon the earth."
It seems that the U.S. "Great City", as all her predecessors
have, will become "drunk
with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs
of Jesus",
and is going to persecute and martyr God's prophets and
saints more actively and bloodier than she already has
begun to do! She is also filled with the blood of "all that were killed
upon the Earth!" America the melting pot of victims of
her many wars against: Red Indians, Mexicans, Philipinos, Europeans,
Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese, Cambodians, Laotians, Chilians,
Panamanians, Grenadians, Palestinians, Arabians, and God knows what
else is still to come!
At one time the
"the light of the candle"
of true Christianity really did shine in her, and "the
voice of Jesus the bridegroom",
and the voice of His Bride , His faithful
followers, was heard, but through this devastating judgment, they "shall
be heard no more at all in you: for your MERCHANTS
were the great men of the earth!"
God always goes hardest after His own wayward children first,
like Israel! And then He judges her enemies!—The 10
horns and the rest of Babylon!
Does this speak to you? "Come out
of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and
that ye receive not of her plagues." Rev.18:4

REVELATION
CHAPTER 17:
"...Come here; I will show to you the judgment of the great
whore that sits on many waters: With whom the kings of
the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants
of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a
woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names
of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with
gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand
full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
And on her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE
GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints,
and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her,
I wondered with great admiration. And the angel said unto me, Wherefore
did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman,
and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads
and ten horns. And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings,
which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one
hour with the beast. And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast,
these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate
and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with
fire! For God has put in their hearts to fulfil his will,
and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words
of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which you saw is that great
city, which reigns over the kings of the earth."
REVELATION
CHAPTER 18
"..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. For all
nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication,
and the kings of the earth have committed fornication
with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich
through the abundance of her delicacies. 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.
For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according
to her works: in the cup which she has filled fill to her double. How
much she has glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment
and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am
no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death,
and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly
burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived
deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when
they shall see the smoke of her burning, standing far away
for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city
Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour is your judgment
come. And the
MERCHANTS of the earth shall weep and mourn over
her; for no man buys their MERCHANDISE any more! "And the light
of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice
of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no
more at all in thee: for your MERCHANTS were
the GREAT MEN of the earth; for by your sorceries were
ALL nations deceived! And in her was found the blood of prophets,
and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth."
