And where does the abomination of desolation take place? Not in rome. And now in response to what others quoted me on about it being a city and it being a noun. Freemasons have a secret handshake. they have whats called mystery schools that teach deception but say its revealing truths. These places also are very involved in studying subliminal messages thats used in advertisements especially on tv. the basic meaning of occult is secret. What I said about mystery babylon isnt something I pulled out of a hat. I prayed and asked God to show me what was going on in the world. A city by itself is not evil. These people will and do have a headquarters because they will have global power at some point. I dont know if the hour it mentions is a literal 60 minutes or a short span of time. It dont matter though. Its not the city so much that will be destroyed but whats in the city. or should i say who is in the city. Mystery babylon is for lack of a better term, a coven of witches which will come into global power. Thats why she sits/rides the beast. central command, if you will. The people that practice this false religion are all over the world. And at the higher levels they are not strangers to each other. 3 hours ago, Qnts2 said: Did you know that Athens, Greece is also on 'seven hills'? Also Mecca is on 7 hills. Tehran, Iran is also on 7 hills. 2 hours ago, other one said: so is Washington DC So out of all of them "hills," which place that you all have mentioned have 5 that "are fallen," how did all that happen? Was it all at once or did they fall one at a time? Is the 1 that "is" still "is?" And what about that "other that is not yet come" coming, or has it come and gone already? If it did, did only stick around for a short time? Any word on when's that 8th one supposed to appear that gets destroyed??? Because if these "mountains" are really just "hills" then how does that all fit with the verse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I thought I would mention just a few of the many. Of my list, I believe Mecca is a likely candidate. Tehran is the second most likely. Rome would be third. But Jerusalem is the least likely of all of the cities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor is istanbul, which used to be Constantinople and before that Byzantium. Lets get real here, this is the bible so its very likely its either Babylon, which is no more or its Rome, which that time is past, modern day Istanbul which isn't likely, or Jerusalem. Unless of course its a new city that wasnt around back when The Book was written. I think thats a possibility but not as probable. Even still, it dont matter to me what city it is thats her headquarters, Gods will is going to come to pass and that is, the wicked will be cut off from the earth. The book gives us a big clue when it says stand in the holy place. A cursory glance of that word usage shows that it is translated (KJV) mountain or mount 62 times and hill 3 times. It shows to have come from a word that means "a rising." The whole "city on seven hills" notion is kind of silly as BlindSeeker points out. Mountains are metaphors for kingdoms, and in this case, these "risings" result from supernatural princes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child. But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent. And the serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood. But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon poured out of his mouth. So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. Revelation 12:13-17 So, those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus are the offspring of the woman in Rev 17? And on her forehead a name was written, a mystery, “BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:5 How are those who hold to the testimony of Jesus and keep the commandments of God harlots and abominations? Can you elaborate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
