I think she is America.

But there are other possibilities, like Rome, or at the end when all the people who have taken the mark come together.

But I really believe that she is America.

 Its been a while since I studied on this but here it goes

 

The 7 mountains sound like it could be Rome (7 hills)

Peoples, multitude's, nations, and tongues

America is made up of all races, religions, and languages.

America is a GREAT influence on all the world

  Our music, movies, art, clothing, jewelry, our way of living. Everything that America does, everyone else seems to do.

  When someone wants to become a musician, they usually end up coming to America to become international. They can't become   international in their own country.

This country was built upon God. But we have almost completely erased God from this country. The only thing keeping Him alive in America are the very few Christians.

Doesn't Mystery Babylon have to be on or near the coast?

Rev 18:17-18

 

Doesn't Mystery Babylon have to be on or near the coast?

 

Rev 18:10

 Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city!

NASB

 

It's kind of difficult to fit all the description of Babylon into one city.....  Vatican city seems to be the closest to the description in my personal view.....

 

It's responsible for the death of saints, it's only 13 miles from the sea,  It has the colors mentioned and the Political side of the Holy See has been involved with just about every country in the world.    And it's on one of the seven hills of the city of Rome.

I didn't realise that Rome was that close to the coast.

I don't know that I ever paid any attention to it...    I was a little surprised myself.    I checked it on Google Earth, I'm just supposing that their measurement tools are fairly accurate.

Good stuff niki,

But this verse in rev 18 is hard to see America.

24In her was found the blood of prophets and of God’s holy people,

of all who have been slaughtered on the earth.”

How do you see America in this one

Other than that verse, I can see why you think as you do. NYC could easily be that city by the water.

I don't know. It may not be so literal, like its more like causing the other nations, as in Israel to sin, and die of sin, or it just may not have happened yet. And I may be wrong.  We won't know for sure until God says its time for us to know

I do know, as of all you should know. That America is getting really bad. Its gotten worse over the past few years. The government is VERY corrupted, religion is so messed up, I don't even know if I should call myself a Christian anymore, because its not JUST Christian now a days. Most people who I've tried to talk to about religion and/or politics, they just don't care. All most people care about anymore, is casual sex, music, fashion, and partying. That's all society is anymore. I'm 24 years old, and pretty much all people my age are like this. My generation is awful. And I can see this world coming to an end VERY soon. The sins have gotten so bad, it is impossible to not sin anymore. So, I personally think that if Babylon is America, it just hasn't happened yet, but it will soon. They are trying to disarm us, so that we cannot defend ourselves, they are trying to completely erase God from this country. And they are succeeding, and soon they will get what they want (for a short time)

Yes, I was replying to O O's claim that mystery Babylon was the Vatican. Sorry, I didn't make myself clear as I did not quote him.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
