BABYLON, the MYSTERY, ( THE BEAST ) VERSE TO VERSE REVELATION: PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD Shalom and aloha Everyone, This is very important for you to understand. This is the second actual study on BABYLON. There is another one that has alot of Strongs definitions throughout them, but this one is verse to verse. i will try to say the minimum, because you have to understand this for yourself...it doesnt say MYSTERY, for nothing, and may i add, the most HIGH doesnt exaggerate. i will put around key, repeated and important words and my own, when needed, after intro. [these are added words, in the k.j.v., but not all the verses are in these, as of yet.]You can easily and you should follow along in your personal Writtings, for context and verification. This is just a highlighting of the meat of this matter. By all means read along and this is easy, because its only a few chapters, Rev.17:-18:24, Jer.50:-51:64, Isa.13:, 21:1-10, & 47:. There is alittle more, but these should be enough, for now. May the LORD be with you. Starting with the most HIGHS commands to, Rev.18:4 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.Jer.50:13 Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues. Jer. 51:37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing,without an inhabitant.Jer.50:40 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour [cities] thereof, saith the LORD; [so] shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein. When it says, this latter day Babylon will never be inhabited, again, you know its not talking about ancient Babylon, which was just restored, 2011, and the land, Iraq, has been dwelt in, all along. Heres more, take note that these next verses say this, twice. Rev 18:2 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. R.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.Isa.21:9 And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.Jer.51:8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed. Jer.50:15 Shout against her round about: she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down: for it [is] the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her. Jer.50:28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.Jer.51:6 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquities; for this is the time of the LORDS vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.51:11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.Jer.51:36 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.2 Thes.1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ::9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;Isa.34:8 For [it is] the day of the LORDS vengeance, [and] the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.:9 And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.:10 It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.Isa. 47:3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet [thee as] a man. As you can see, the words and phraises repete themselves and actually guiding this study. You have seen a few, Plagues, Without an inhabitant, Fallen, Vengeance and youll see these again, as we go. Now well just go with SHAME Jer.50:12 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert. Hindermost means, Our timeJer.51:41 How is Sheshach taken ! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations! Sheshach, means, is another name for BabylonRev.18:7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and see no sorrow.:8 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 judgeth her.:9 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,:10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas,alas that greatcity Babylon, that mighty city ! for in one hour is thy judgment come.:11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: Rev.18:15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afaroff for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,:16 And saying, Alas,alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen,and purple, and scarlet, and and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls ! Rev.17:4,later:17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,:18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!:19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas,alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships...by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.:21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast [it] into the sea ,saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.***18:23 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 thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. This is another verse(s) that eliminates both ancient Babylon and Jerusalem, These do not preach JESUS,/YESHUA, and have not deceived the whole world with false doctrines in Christianity Isa.47:9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.:10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am,and none else beside me.:11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off : and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.:12 Stand now with thine enchantments,and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail.:13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from [these things] that shall come upon thee.:14 Behold, they shall be as stubble ; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: [there shall] not [be] a coal to warm at, [nor] fire to sit before it.:15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy merchants,from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee. Rev.17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters::2 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.:3 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.:4 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:Jer.51:7 Babylon [hath been] a golden cup in the LORDS hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.Rev.18:3 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.Jer.50:16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and thy shall flee every one to his own land. There is a specific study on the fleeing and to Come Out Babylon here on the truthofGod. Jer.50:22 A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.:23 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylonbecome a desolation among the nations!:24 I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.:31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord God of hosts: for thy day is come, the time [that] I will visit thee.:35 A sword [is] upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.:36 A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword [is] upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.:37 A sword [is] upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.:38 A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon [their] idols.:39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell [there], and the owls shall dwell therein:and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation. This goes on and on. Babylon obviously, falls in the last days. This is definitly not talking about ancient Babylon, thus this 8th beast is renamed Babylon, for a few reasons. One being, the tower to heaven, Babel/ Babylon / Confusion. Now you should be able to count the number of the beast in, Rev.17:10, remembering that Babylon has not fallen.Rev.17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, [and] the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.Rev.17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, (Medo-Persian Empire, = 1 + 4 = Greece, = 5.) and one is, (the Roman Empire at that time) and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.Rev.17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.:11 And the beast that was, ( ancient Babylon), and is not, ( neither Babylons are in play now, at the time of the prophecy, as rome is the one that is) the other has not yet come,at this time even he is the eighth, and is of the seven,..add it up, 1=Babylon, (but not fallen) ; 1=Medo-Persian ; 4=Greece ; 1=Rome, = 7, kings / nations / superpowers...and not counting Babylon in, 5 fallen, also adds up. The 8TH Head/Beast /nation / superpower, being renamed Babylon, being of the seven and this 8TH Beast has its origens / source / mother of . Being alot like rome and its union to the r.c.c. One more to verify this.Rev.17:8 The beast that thou sawest 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. Rev.17:3 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.Isa.14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;:17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cites thereof;.? Rev.12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.Rev.12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. Rev.12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.Dan.7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. dividing = half :26 But the judgement shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. Dan.12:7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which [was] upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that [it shall be] for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these [things] shall be finished. 2 Thes.2:9) Even him, whose coming is after the working of satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 2 Thes.2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 2 Tim.4:3 For the time will come when they shall not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. Rev.6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. = to subdueWHITE, 2 Cor.11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.:14 And no marvel; for satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness;..BOW, Ps.11:2 For, lo, the wicked bend [their] bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. Ps.78:57 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow. The Word of YHVH GOD is symbolically a swordCROWN, Rev.1:14 His (YESHUAs) head and [his] hairs [were] white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes [were] as a flame of fire;Lk.4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. Rev.17:5 And upon her forhead was a name written, MYSTERY , BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.:6 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.:7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest 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.:17 For God hath 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.:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.R.19:2 For true and righteous [are] his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.:3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. These things go on and on. This same superpower is the little horn and the second beast of Rev.13:11. You can contact me for more on this. Most of the deception, spiritual babylon, is in the Second Coming Prophecy, here on the truthofGod or in the files on this group. These things go into alot of details and there is much, much more if you just read the chapters that all tie into this, Rev.17:, 18:, ; Jer.50:, 51:, ; Isa.13:,& spinkled throughout, 14:, & 21:1-10 and 47:, sprinkled throughout 48:, etc.i pray that you understood this and please write if you did or have any questions...ill continue to post mini studies on different aspects of this astonishing subject. shalom and aloha
