That they stole from Judaism.

And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses. And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen. Ex. 39:1,2

The Catholic Church sits in Peter's seat, which was formerly Moses' seat that the Pharisees sat in.
Christianity usurps Judaism.

I'll worship Peter over Moses any day. Peter was elect and walked and talked with Christ.

True.
Enoch describes Jerusalem as the place of "seven dignified mountains".
A geological survey of Old Jerusalem shows that it was built on 4 literal hills.

But, maybe literal isn't the way to go. To what are you referring? I looked but all I found was this. In this part of Enoch the "mountains" and "trees" all appear to be symbolic.

The two witnesses die in Jerusalem showing that 'she' will be the focus of the last days just like 2Thess. 2 and the Olivet discourse say as well.

Or

That's certainly the most advantageous spot for the Idolatress of Babylon.

What religious leader has the most influence, dressed in red and scarlet, holding golden chalices, and adorned with jewels. What place is still rocking hard with Babylonian iconography :think:

The Roman pontiff impeccably resembles the description in Revelation.

you can't find the trade
Babylon is not Mecca, Rome, NYC, USA, Jerusalem, Old Babylon and it is not a Mystery, the Angel said COME and I will show you the Mystery of the Woman and the Beast she rides on. Since the Angel is telling the Mystery in Rev. 17, it looks like we have erred in not understanding the angels explanation. The Beast with 7 Heads is explained, it is 7 Kings, 5 have fallen, one is and one is yet to come. THERE IS THE BEAST Explained. Since this 7 headed Beast in Rev. 13 has the Leopard, Bear and Lion integrated in it, we understand these seven are kingdoms that have conquered or enslaved Israel. So Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia and Greece are the 5, Rome was the one that was in Johns time still intact, and the Anti-Christ and his 10 Kings will be the coming 7th Head. MYSTERY SOLVED/EXPLAINED.

Woman was on waters, which the Angel says is many Nations, Peoples, Tongues and Multitudes. Which means she is all over the world. She is destroyed by the Kings. and she is that Great City that rules over Kings. So lets add this up. She is all over the world, she gets killed of in the end times by the Kings in league with the Beast and the Angel calls her a city that reigns over many Kings. In the vision BABYLON THE GREAT was Written on her forehead !! The Angel is explaining the vision John SAW !! It is Babylon not Rome, the Seven Mountains are Seven Rulers, they are not 7 HILLS. Since Babylon will never again be a city per prophecy we understand this is metaphorical. So we have a metaphorical city that represents the woman, she is all over the world and the last clue is the Kings Destroy her. Who can she be ?

So since she is killed off how can she be metaphorical ? Because she is a Slut Harlot !! She is all over the world !! Hmmmmm what could that be ? Only ONE THING, she is False Religion.

False Religion is no doubt all over the world, False Religion is a Harlot prostitute, False Religion will be Destroyed by the Anti-Christ and his Kings because they will demand the Beast be worshiped as GOD !! There will be no room for Islam, Buddhism, or any Religion, they will also come after Christians and the Jews will have to Flee Judea, but the Harlot is JUDGED just like Rev. 17:1 says, she is destroyed.

This can't be the Babylon of Rev. 18 because the Kings cry and lament her destruction....What gives ? Well the Babylon of Rev. 18 is the False Gov. System, the Last Head of the Seven Headed Beast. God destroys her with Plagues, Grasses and Tress burn, the Devils are loosed out of the Pit (Apollyon and his horde of Demons)and the earth/Babylon is become a habitation of devils.

There is NO MYSTERY......The Angel explains the Mystery.

Seven Headed Beast is Seven Governments which come against Israel.

Woman is False Religion which is a Harlot before God and has murdered the SaintS and Martyrs of God.

Purple and Scarlet has been used for Royalty and in Religious matters for thousands of years. Google it. Even the Israeli High Priests wore these colors. And the Golden cups are about Daniel chapter 5, when the King (Belshazzar) commanded all of the golden chalices from the Temple of God to be brought forth, and all of his court drank wine from these sacred cups. That very day his Kingdom fell MENE, MENE, TEKEL.

Daniel 5:2 Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.

3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.

4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.


Rev. 17 is telling why she is a Harlot. She is like Babylon. She is Defiled, she is False Religion.

Cool story.

Well I suppose those people from a thousand years ago better crawl out their grave and bring an apocalypse :idunno:

In the meantime, I'm going to look at the guy who resembles every single thing in Revelation.
