1 Timothy 6:9. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Revelation 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: 5. And upon her forehead 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. 8. The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition:

Revelation 18:1. And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 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. 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.

Who do you think “Babylon” is? In the Revelation she is describe as a “mystery”! Do you think that wild-guessing men have her identified correctly? Some have called her the Catholic Church and some have said Babylon is the USA. ALL ARE WRONG GUESSES! The clue to WHO is Babylon is right there in the texts above. Our enemy and God’s enemy is not human at all.

Your first clue

Ephesians 6:12. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Revelation 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. 12. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

The CORRECT ID

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.

Isaiah 47:5. Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms. 6. I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. 7. And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it. 8. Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:

This is the name of Satan’s wife, the mother of devils, who was kicked out of Heaven with Satan and their demonic “angels” or offspring born up there. Babylon is wrong in thinking that she will never know the loss of children. When men die the body rots and it appears that God is losing His children. Devils clinging to their flesh-bodies then fall out in every direction. To avoid falling in endless circles (bottomless pit) they grab anyone or any animal nearby as they fall past them.

God’s PLAN for the Kingdom (family) of evil spirits and demons

Isaiah 47: 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.

Isaiah 14:20. … because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned. 21. Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities. 22. For I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the Lord.

Revelation 18: 5. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. 6. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. 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 shall 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.

Revelation 20: 9. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 14. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Ezekiel 28:16. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. 17. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. 18. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. 19. All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

Babylon, Lucifer and all their “images of the Beast” (offspring) shall be completely ERASED BY FIRE and this condition shall be permanent (forever).

Matthew 13:38. The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; 39. The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. 40. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. 41. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; 42. And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

How Babylon reigns over the human nations and controls our governments.

Wealth is obtained through business and trade practices, and commerce and monetary policies are regulated by the governments of the nations. There are two major ways Babylon influences heads of state and government leaders. Wealth is gained by taking by force the resources of a weaker nation and also by exploiting them. It is gained also by using ones own resources in trade. Next are the business and commerce marketers who gain favorable rules from corrupt politicians which enable them to exploit others for insane and ungodly profit through oppression of consumers.

Here in the USA Ronald Reagan started the GREED CREED and the CEOs of Wall Street banks and money movers started a culture of perversion and greed by the business leaders in this country. Lenders made ungodly profits in the collapse of our business industry and the government took the peoples money to bail them out while the Bankers and CEO’s at the top made of like bandits with the people’s investment money and savings. (Did your 401K and pension funds get ripped off?) So intertwined is the world money and banking systems that a domino effect almost crippled the world economy. All nations took a hit! The bandits wear plaid suits and fancy ties and many of them are head-quartered on Wall Street.

Now look at what Babylon did in old world terms

Revelation 18:9. 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 great city 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: 12. The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, 13. And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. 14. And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. 15. The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off 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 decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! 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 in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

As you can see from this Babylon is the invisible manager causing greed and corruption in business and commerce in all nations of the world. Another attribute that she manages is lust, sex, fornication and drunkenness (through alcohol consumtion (and other recreation drugs). How many politicians do you know of who have been caught in the web of lust, adultery, and alcoholism in the ministration of their duties for the people of this nation and their constituents? How many in Washington have made the cable news headlines recently? How many of them have taken bribes (campaign cash) and back door payoffs to legislate for business interests rather than for the good of the people whom they should represent? You see how Babylon reigns over their minds and influences their decision making and their voting habits. How many of them have extra-marital affairs with women or children? You will not know until they face exposure! But they are under the influence of Babylon. Letting the Reagan era tax breaks for the wealthiest 2 % of Americans will pay for health care for all. Stopping on of the two wars Babylon has us in will pay for the Presidents heath care revamp! Resources going killing our fellow man for whatever reason is leaving 44,000 Americans dying because they could not pay for health while sick. Where is “love your brother as yourself” in Babylon’s prescription for many in congress? Some of our leaders are not Christians. They are self-righteous religious hypocrites!

One final point

Babylon also manages racial and ethnic hatred and lack of empathy and brotherly love. Guess who the mother of WAR is?

Revelation 18:24. And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

Those who are so keen on starting wars rather than to seek solutions to problems through tolerance and diplomacy have a “mother” influencing their minds. Her name is:

Revelation 17: 5. And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

There is a wise man, a kind of prophet ….YES, I said a prophet … who is trying to clue us in on Babylon’s sins against the USA. If you get a chance, go and see Michael Moore’s new movie, “Capitalism, a Love Story”. At least you now know how Babylon reigns over the nations and the results of her tools in lives of humans. Take a close look at Washington and Wall Street!
