  Revelation of Mystery Babylon

6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for
the hour of His judgment is come: and worship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
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. (Revelation 14 verse 6 thru 8.)

In one hour judgment has come upon the Great Whore

13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for
an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: For I heard the number of them.

 

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials,

and talked with me, saying unto me: "Come hither, I will show unto you the judgment of the great whore that sits upon many waters":

Note: The angel is not specified as to which vial he possessed, but nevertheless the vial judgments are seen by John from a timeless eternal perspective. The writings are past tense, for they have all been executed from an eternal perspective, to be revealed in time with interspersed reflections.   and also this is the first time that the mystery of the great whore is mentioned as sitting on the first beast that was revealed in Revelation 13 (See Revelation 13:1-4.). We might consider that the Great Whore was already seated upon the beast before the seven vial judgments were poured out.

So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, with names full of blasphemy, and having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, 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 upon 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.

The great whore, the Mother of Harlots is a mystery twisted in confusion.  In the midst of Mystery Babylon and the harlots that are birthed in the confusion of the great whore, are peoples that Yahweh God calls to come out from the midst of the confusion of Babylon, less they are partakers in her punishment. Confusion yet remains, for Mystery Babylon has not yet fallen under the full weight of her sins. The confusion of Babylon has spread itself throughout all nations: For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornications. (Revelation 18:3.)

Some sects of Christianity have thought that Rome's ties with the early church, birthed Mystery Babylon, that is now the independent city of the Vatican. (See Revelation 17:4-6.) Now if the mystery is true, then who are the Harlots that would be the confused offspring's of the Great Whore?  The Roman Vatican church and her offspring harlots would be part of the confusion of Satan.  The mystery of confusion extends before and beyond the time of the iron legs of Rome, for now the ten toes are the mixture of clay and iron, that reveals the mixture of  confusion that remains a depicture of the power of this day.  (See Daniel 2:41-44.) 

We may not agree with the following documentary, but Armageddon News has produced a contrarian film documentary that sets the stage for Mystery Babylon to exist in the middle east in the Arab nation of Saudi Arabia. Pease advise yourselves here on U-Tube.  Also, Walid Shoebat with Joel Richardson produced an editorial that both reveals Saudi Arabia as Mystery Babylon, and dismisses the Vatican of Rome as being Mystery Babylon.  The mixture that makes up the ten toes is not yet clearly evident, nevertheless Satan's idolatry is made evident in this crooked generation.

The spirit of whoredoms is seated with the Great Whore with her mixture of harlots, for the same spirit of Antichrist continues to work his confusion in the nations of the world!

The Scripture further reads in this Revelation:

And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carried her that has the seven heads and ten horns.  The beast that you saw was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: And they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

Here is the mind, which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the Woman sits upon. And there are seven kings, five are fallen, one is, and the other is not yet come, but when he is come, he must continue for a short time.

Prophetically in the Scriptures, "mountains" speaks about powers that are ascribed to the kingdoms that ruled during their times. Of the seven prophetic mountains, five kings (Kingdoms) that had previously existed, no longer ruled as a mountain of power. We suggest that the five previous kings of power, all dealing with Israel, would have been Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece. Even though Egypt and Assyria are not seen in Nebuchadnezzar's great image that is explained by Daniel, nevertheless, we might understand that at the time in which Daniel deciphers the great image to Nebuchadnezzar, then the Golden Head, representing Nebuchadnezzar's Babylonian Empire and armies, would have already defeated both ruling nations of Egypt and Assyria.  

Now at the time of John's Revelation writings, the Rome empire with the church was the one ruling kingdom that was the sixth mountain of power. The seventh mountain is prophetic within man's future time, and yet already has its place according to the Eternal Mind of the Infinite.  In God's time the seventh mountain will come to exist for a short period of time with the Dragon's (Satan's) power promoting the Antichrist.  And then, the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth and is of the seven, and will go into perdition (utter destruction).

Isaiah's prophetic witness: How art thou fallen from heaven O Lucifer son of the morning? How art thou cut down to the ground who weakened the nations? For thou has said in thy heart: I will ascend into heaven: I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will also sit upon the mountain of the congregation in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds (Shekinah Glory.), and I will be like the Most High. Yet thou shall be brought down to hell into the sides of the pit. (See Isaiah 14:10-19.)

(Revelation 14:6-8) And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting Gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is (to) come: and worship Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.  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 also Revelation 18:1-5.)

In the course of Salvations time, Mystery Babylon has made all nations to drink of the wrath of her fornication. (See Jeremiah 51:7-10.) Unrepented Sin has its own wrathful violence, and in the end Day of the Lord, the only Holy, Holy, Holy Lord Yahweh God Almighty will judge all nations in His righteousness.

And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the Wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation; and he (those receiving the mark) shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the Presence of the Lamb: (Revelation 14:6-10.)

The woman that you saw is that great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.

Rapture at the last Trumpet

In a moment in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound and the dead (in the Body of Christ) shall be raised incorruptible and we shall be changed. (See 1st Corinthians 15:51-58.)

MG 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

It is unfortunate that the translators of the King James version and other English versions of the Bible have inserted their own evaluation of the meaning of the Greek words, rather than to translate the literal Greek into a more logical English meaning relative to the cumulative timing of the preceding events of Matthew 24.  If you click on the English words "Immediately" and "after" you should logically conclude that they are both incorrect transliteration of the Greek.  The mistranslated English word "Immediately" is more likely the English word "moreover", and the mistranslated word "after" is more likely the English word "with".  Therefore, the Word of the Lord would be more like this.  "Moreover, with the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken."

MG 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

MG 31 And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (Matthew 24:31.)

The Harvest of the Earth

A. And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud One sat like unto the Son of Man, having on His Head a golden crown, and in His Hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in Thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for Thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And He that sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

B. And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him (angel) that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs. (Revelation 14 verse 14 thru 20.)

      
1. The essence of this same prophetic Word is seen in Joel Chapter 3 beginning in verse 11:
           Assemble yourselves all of you heathen nations, and gather yourselves together.   and cause thy mighty angels to come down
           Put you in the sickle,
            for the harvester is ripe;
           Come get you down: for the press is full, the vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.  Multitudes,
           multitudes in the valley of decision: For the Day of the Lord is "near" in the valley of decision. The sun and
           the moon shall be darkened and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
 

Proclaim this among the nations:
    “Prepare for war!  Stir up the mighty men. Let all the warriors draw near. Let them come up.
10 
Beat your plowshares into swords,  and your pruning hooks into spears.
    Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’
11 Hurry and come, all you surrounding nations, and gather yourselves together.”
    Cause your mighty ones to come down there, Yahweh.
12 Let the nations arouse themselves, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat;
    for there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations.
13 Put in the sickle;  for the harvest is ripe.  Come, tread, for the wine press is full,
    the vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.”
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision!  For the day of Yahweh is near, in the valley of decision.
15 The sun and the moon are darkened,  and the stars withdraw their shining.
16 Yahweh will roar from Zion, and thunder from Jerusalem;
    and the heavens and the earth will shake;
    but Yahweh will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
(Joel 3:9-16.)

 

and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.  For there fell upon men a great hail [storm] from heaven, and every stone weighing a talent (100 pounds). 

The melting of the many hail stones into water would cause the blood of the final battle to swell up to a horse's bridle.
