Ancient
Babylon has been in ruins for centuries, but the term ‘Babylon” may be a code
word for something other than the literal ancient city, prophecy experts say.
There’s a passage in the bible that has baffled theologians for
centuries, confounding and teasing them, to the point where most modern
preachers pass right by it like President Bush does with Broccoli.
Who and what is “Mystery Babylon,” that “great whore” spoken of
in Revelation 17-18 that commits “fornication” with world rulers, lives in
extreme luxury and gets “drunk with the blood of the saints” before finally
meeting her fiery destruction?
Who is this mysterious
woman, city, religion, nation or country?
Popular theories say it’s the Roman Catholic Church. Others
point to New York City, seat of the United Nations, Wall Street and all manner
of human greed and fleshly lusts. Some say it is apostate Christianity in
general, not just the Catholic Church, or America as a whole, not just New York
City.
Still others point to Mecca and Saudi Arabia’s royal family,
which lives in opulence and owns everything from diamond-studded cars, a harem
of sex slaves and more than a few Washington politicians and media giants.
Whatever it is, this mysterious Babylonian spirit reigns supreme
during the very last days, and if the amount of space devoted to it in the
Bible is any indication of its importance, then it might behoove the faithful
to dig deep into the bowels of Revelation 17-19, Isaiah 13-14 and Jeremiah 50
in search of clues to the possibilities.
Then’ you will recognize it when you see it.
To
understand what is happening now’ regarding the “Babylonian spirit” you have to
go back to the beginning. There has
always been a human element seeking to build a false utopia devoid of God. The
essential question is, who are they and what is motivating them?
The Garden of Eden was a perfect world in terms of economic
prosperity, health and well-being. But a powerful fallen angel named Lucifer
became the ‘god of this world’ after the fall of mankind.” And here’s where it
starts to get interesting I will take you on a historical journey in an effort
to connect the unseen dots. Many of them are found hiding in plain view.
Since that time, Lucifer/Satan/Allah has been leading a
revolution against God along with one-third of the angels. The world system, or
the Babylonian system, is Luciferian in nature.
Nimrod, the great-grandson of Noah, created the first world
government, religion and economic system in ancient Babylon. The Tower of Babylon
or Babel was his crowning achievement.
That is why, ever since ancient Babylon, a secret priesthood of
Luciferian elites has conducted secret rituals and passed on secret Luciferian
knowledge through what is known as ‘Mystery, Babylon.
Plato spoke of it in his “Republic,” where he said “the
ideal society would be ruled by a very small number of philosopher kings.”
Sir Francis Bacon described a secret ruling elite in his novel “New Atlantis.”
Similar principles were found in the French Revolution, the various communist
revolutions, and in Hitler’s national socialist revolution.
Is America, the landing ground of “The Illuminati”?
America has not been exempt, it has been a pivotal playground
for these elites since the time of its founding, and they made themselves known
as early as the 19th century with giant political steps in 1913.
Evidence of their secret occult influence can be seen in the
symbols incorporated on America’s money. The backside of a dollar bill shows an
unfinished pyramid with an all-seeing eye in the capstone. Underneath the
pyramid are the words: “Novus Ordo Seclorum,” Latin for “New Order of the
Ages.” On the right side is a mysterious bird, which looks a lot like the
Phoenix, a bird that was to rise from the ashes of a destroyed civilization and
usher in a new world order in the mythical story of Atlantis.
But unlike Soviet Russia or Jacobin France, America has always
been a battleground of conflicting ideas in which biblical Christianity has
served as arch rival to Illuminati elites. Biblical principles of natural law
and unalienable rights provided by the “Creator” were embedded in the
Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. That battle continues to
this day.
This secret knowledge has been passed on through secret
societies throughout the ages. The names of these societies have been changed
many times over the centuries. For example, Sir Francis Bacon, a member of
Britain’s Parliament, was head of the Rosicrucian Order, which is believed to
have later morphed into the Bavarian Illuminati, a fashionable 18th century
secret society that attracted some of Bavaria’s leading intellectuals.
Today, these powerful secret societies include Yale University’s
The Skull and The Bones, whose members include both Bush presidents and current
Secretary of State John Kerry. Bohemian
Grove, which conducts mock human sacrifices at its annual retreat in rural California.
The Bilderbergers, the Council on Foreign Relations, Club of Rome and
Trilateral Commission are just a few of the many secret Luciferian
organizations that still exist today.
They are the scientific elite or the technocratic elite that the
philosopher Plato referred to as the 10 god-kings.
Aldous Huxley, the brother of UNESCO founder and eugenicist
Julian Huxley, wrote about the coming technocracy in his classic work “A Brave
New World.” Aldous Huxley wrote that the term “technocratic elite” comes from
the word “techne” and techne comes from the word “wicca,” which implies the
power or magic to reconfigure reality through supernatural power.
“The Babylon Code” postulates that the secret knowledge
originated with Nimrod, who’s Tower of Babel provoked God to scatter the people
and scramble their languages. This knowledge was passed to ancient Egypt, then
got handed down to the Greeks and Romans before landing in modern Europe and
America.
‘Guarding their secret knowledge’
As a means of control, the elites are careful to keep this
knowledge highly compartmentalized, shielding the bigger picture so that even
the lower-level elites (useful idiots) do not understand where things are headed.
He includes presidents, prime ministers, scientists and
educators among the “lower levels of the elite.” These lower elites or “Useful
Idiots” as Vladimir Lenin referred to them work to create a completely secular
society, pushing an atheistic view of the world in schools, universities and
business. But this “scientific materialism” is a fraudulent cover meant to keep
the wider population in the dark about spiritual realities, It’s because they know
that a truly spiritual, Christian population will be more difficult to deceive
and lead into spiritual darkness and, ultimately, into political enslavement.
The only way to fight this evil, is with supernatural power. Even
though it is imperative to fight this with every available weapon, it cannot be
defeated in the political arena alone.
Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto preached the same message as the
Illuminati Manifesto, he said: “Destroy the family, cause divisions, and
destroy religion, especially Christianity. After all is destroyed, rebuild
according to the utopian vision of total control by the elites.” This
is being electively accomplished by the stealthy Fabain Communists in American
today.
Similar principles are taught in Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for
Radicals,” and “Community Organizing” which President Obama is a student of,
and was dedicated to the “very first rebel …Lucifer.
So there is a secret priesthood of people who have access to
this supernatural power but the way they maintain control is they create a
firewall between them and the so-called masses and they hide their power and
the only thing they tell the masses is there is no God except Government, and
it’s all just about the material world, and the only thing that’s real is the
one you can see.
God has no meaning, we are all just evolved animals. The
Illuminati created communism and they know there are supernatural forces and
they use things like communism or fascism to deceive the masses. That’s the way
they keep their control, but meanwhile they are accessing and deploying
supernatural power all along. If you go back to the intellectuals like Bertrand
Russell, Huxley and H.G. Wells, you will discover that they were not the
secular humanists they pretended to be. They were secretly, and sometimes
unknowingly, steeped in the occult.
While this is what is behind all that is taking place in societies
around the world, there is yet another much larger and deadlier in your face group
of people that are used to bring about the totalitarian Luciferian kingdom. Nearly
two billion of them bow five times a day toward Mecca.
Others, such as end-times Bible prophecy teacher Joel Richardson,
including yours truly, hold to an expanded view of Revelation 17-18 and the
identity of Mystery Babylon. Richardson,
author of “The
Islamic Antichrist” and “Mideast
Beast,” identifies this “great
harlot” riding the beast as the present day kingdom of Saudi Arabia, or as I do
the Nation of Islam. Richardson traces
his view back to Daniel 7 and the four beast empires. He said the Christian use
of the word “Babylon” has traditionally been used as a metaphor to describe
whatever evil empire happened to be reigning on the earth at the time.
“This motif of a beast as an empire is picked up in Revelation
17 and expanded upon,” Richardson said. “She is seen sitting on and riding the
beast. The beast represents the final world empire that is the satanic empire
that will be the vehicle of the Antichrist and his armies. The beast is the
main competitor or the enemy of the people of God in the earth. So the woman
and the beast, they are rider and steed, they go together, the great harlot and
the beast. They are a team.”
Richardson breaks down Mystery Babylon, the great whore, by the
following characteristics.
·
She lives in a desert and sits on many waters, which
is peoples or groups of people.
·
She’s sitting on a scarlet beast clothed in purple,
indicating royalty.
·
She is portrayed as both a queen and a prostitute.
·
She is both a powerful religious and economic force in
the earth.
·
She commits spiritual fornication with false gods.
·
She has influence with many kings of the earth.
·
The kings have committed fornication with her, to
engage in idolatry with her.
·
She is a heavy consumer, and through her purchasing
makes the merchants of the earth rich.
·
She spreads her false religious convictions throughout
the world.
·
She is responsible for the shed blood of the people of
God, Israel and its spiritual offspring, the followers of Jesus.
·
She lives in extreme luxury and the kings who
committed fornication with her also lived luxuriously with her.
·
Not only the kings but the peoples of the earth
committed fornication with her.
·
The beast nations will hate her. These are the nations
that make up the final union of the beast empire – Iran-Iraq, Syria, Turkey,
Sudan, and Libya. They will “devour her and burn her flesh.”
·
She represents the greatest false religion that has
ever existed.
·
She is the biggest spiritual whore on the earth, and
all nations have “drunk the wine” of her false religion, and will feel the
wrath of God.
·
She is a rabid consumer, causing the merchants to weep
over her destruction.
·
She is portrayed as a coastal city. The shipmasters
and anyone who trades on the sea “stood at a distance” and mourned her
destruction.
The key verse to identifying this great harlot can be found in 1
Peter 5:13. Peter was in Rome at the time and referred to the church as who is
in Babylon.
“Babylon” was a code word in the early church for Rome, the
capital city of the reigning beast empire.
Rome was the antichrist system, the pagan empire that’s at
enmity with the Church, in succession these are Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Mede’o-Persian,
Greece and Rome.
Then there will be a seventh and final beast system, which was
the Islamic Ottoman Empire. It was revived soon after its fall in 1924 by the
Muslim Brotherhood in 1928 and will make a curtain call in the last days before
Christ returns.
In the first century the Roman Empire was Satan’s physical
instrument to come against God’s people. It was the spiritual capital of the
reigning antichrist empire. It was the Babylon of the early church.
But today - Mecca can be interpreted as today’s spiritual
Babylon, the capital of world idolatry and the economic stronghold of Satan’s
work in the earth, Islam. The Islamic
empire of the Brotherhood and all of its affiliates meet all of the criteria of
the world’s final beast system. It is
the greatest stronghold of Satan in the earth.
Only the children of Satan, the Muslims are allowed into the
city of Mecca and millions make annual pilgrimages to touch the Kaaba, a black
stone that Muslims believe has the power to forgive sin.
We have nearly two billion people who five times every day bow
down and pray to Lucifer/Satan, the god called Allah and they are -- make no
mistake -- worshiping Satan.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, is the fulfillment of this prophecy
in Revelation 17-18 because it fulfills every biblical criteria of the “whore.”
The Meccan control of America
People talk about the “Israeli lobby” in Washington but the
“Saudi lobby” dwarfs it by comparison. The Saudi royal family has had almost
every important politician in Washington in its pocket going back nearly a
hundred years. The family lives in extravagant luxury to the point of overkill,
like the diamond-studded Mercedes owned by Prince al-Walid bin Talal and the
legendary stories of multiple gigantic palaces with gold toilets and female
harems at their beck and call.
The stories of Saudi wealth are just ridiculous. The now
deceased King Fahd owned dozens of palaces each more grandeur than the past.
Architects estimated one was worth several billion, and that was in the 1980s.
Fahd also had a 100-room house in Marbella Spain, one in Paris, one in Geneva,
24 Rolls Royce’s with 24 karat gold hood ornaments. Prince Talal donated $50
million to CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), which is the main
jihadist organization in the U.S. — not military but intellectual stealth
infiltrating jihad. Its chief spokesman, Ibrahim Hooper, said he “desired
to see the U.S. Constitution replaced by Shariah law.” Over the years members of CAIR have made numerous
threats against my life and the lives of my family.
Carters, Bushes, Clintons, Obamas all ‘owned’ by Saudis
Prince Talal donated $20 million to Harvard to create an Islamic
Studies program and another $20 million to the once Christian University of Georgetown
in Washington D.C. now controlled by Islam.
He came to Harvard to lecture us that we need to be more
tolerant of Islam, this from a guy whose country makes it illegal to open a
church or be a Christian. That is the very picture of hypocrisy and arrogance. Harvard and Georgetown Universities committed
fornication with him, accepting his gift and spreading his Islamist propaganda.
You don’t give someone $20 million without getting something in return. Saudi
money buys not only influence. It buys silence deception and enablement.
Saudi Arabia is one of the most brutal societies in the world,
where minor crimes such as stealing result in the amputation of limbs, where
women are stoned to death for adultery and Christians face beheading, yet not one
word of rebuke is ever heard from Washington or the Islamic controlled Media. Fox News for example is partially owned by
the Prince of Saudi Arabia.
The Saudis
have given millions to former President Jimmy Carter to fund the Carter Center
in Atlanta, which he then uses to spread anti-Israel propaganda while never
uttering a word against Palestinian terrorism or Saudi repression of women, the
murder of Christians and homosexuals and other minorities. The Bushes and the
Clintons are just as indebted to the Saudis with accepting millions for their
Foundation’s .
Moreover, Talal, the Saudi prince, paid off the student loans
Barack Obama owed for his Harvard law degree. Why? Because Prince Talal knew
that Obama was an Islamic Mole. No wonder Obama “bowed before the Saudi king,
pictured at right. And Obama refuses to
even discuss the Saudi lobby’s influence.
They buy every other western nation as well. They’re the only
nation on earth that has that kind of money. And ironically they get it all
from the west through the sale of oil. They have influenced the United Nations
to hate Israel. They pay for the madrasas, the Islamic centers, mosques of the
world, American schools, and then they send their literature there that
encourages jihad against Christians, against Americans and Jews. They are
funding Islamic jihad around the world.
But if biblical prophecy holds true and Saudi Arabia is the last
days is “Babylon,” they have a day of reckoning coming, and they know it. They
spend more per capita than any other nation on arms, to protect themselves from
their own people. She is going to be confronted
and killed by the beast she has created. It will turn on her and devour her.
Saudi Arabia produces only two things: Islamic Jihad and oil. Everything
else they have or they buy. They even buy people, the bodies and souls of men.
How long will the ‘mystery’ last?
Carl Gallups, author of “Final
Warning: Understanding the Trumpet Days of Revelation,” and “Be
Thou Prepared” said
there is so much going on prophetically that it’s hard to track, from the
approaching end of the Shemitah year 2015 on Sept. 13 to the pope’s visit to
America Sept. 23-25, to the rise of ISIS and its genocide against Christians in
the Middle East. Not to mention the pending Iranian nuclear deal and imploding
national economies. All will lead to the
final days.
THE BOTTOM LINE: is this my friend, I know
it in the bones of my spirit that Mystery Babylon will not be a mystery much
longer. As with all end-time prophecy – once it converges into blatant reality,
the biblical prophecies whatever they are, will then be crystal clear.
My main message to the world is this: If you don’t know Jesus
Christ as savior and Lord, now is the time. If you do – then remember you have
been placed in this time of history for ‘a reason’ – so, fight the enemy as a Christian soldier and advance the
Kingdom of Christ as his faithful ambassador.
That is, while there is still time…Tick, tick, tick!
