Question about Babylon

No, I am saying that Babylon which is not Jerusalem will be destroyed forever....

Revelation 18:21   And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

Ask yourself, will Jerusalem be found no more at all when all this is done?

 

Jerusalem will probably look worse than Hiroshima did after the abomination of desolation was placed there. But the people who killed the prophets and saints will not be found. None of apostate Israel (Babylon) will be found anywhere in Israel. Ever. 

Like Jesus said about Jerusalem killing the prophets and saints. 

https://biblehub.com/matthew/23-38.htm

Look, your house is left to you desolate.

 

No, you will not find one single person in Jerusalem who killed the prophets and saints after this.

No place will look pretty after war comes.

So what is the reason then for God to send in the destroyer?  You just said that Jerusalem will look worse than Hiroshima?

Have you got scripture to back your statement?

This is a spiritual desolation he is speaking about.  A land devoid of truth. Barren, dried up, bare because of no knowledge and empty.  No fruits. Spiritually desolate.

Amos 8:11   Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:

No, the land of Israel as well as all of the promised land where the beast dwells today will be desolate. The abomination that causes its desolation is the cause of the desolation. That's its only purpose. That is what it was invented for. To cause desolation. The abomination that causes desolation is what causes the earth to quake on the day of the Lord. It causes the heavens to burn with a fervent heat and it melts the elements. It causes the cloud to ascend into heaven carrying the two witnesses. 

War is hell. 

The question is. Would you prefer the beast remain in the promised land or would you rather the promised land be given to whom God promised it?

New Jerusalem cube(Church of the Holy Sepulchre) = 12,000 stadions

New Babylon cube(ancient Babylon in Iraq) = 12,568 stadions

 

New Athens cube(Parthenon) = 16,956 stadions

New Washington D.C. cube(Google Earth coordinates) = 17,771 stadions

 

The side to half diagonal of a square face of the cube equals the square root of 2.

 

12,000 x  1.41421 = 16,971 stadions

12,568 x 1.41421 = 17,774 stadions

Babylon, in it's most general sense, is the kingdom of Satan's influence on the human race.  The end time manifestation of Babylon is made up of apostate Jews.  Where are they headquartered? Where is their base of influence?  That's the literal city that gets destroyed. My guess is NYC but time will tell.  I've heard good arguments for DC, London, and Vatican.

This question has also perplexed me, is it literal or symbolic Babylon? There are good arguments for all sides of the various views. We are witnessing how all prophetic events are shaping up, everything from Gog-Magog forming, to a cashless one-world global system, via U.N. Agenda 2030 and the Great Reset. The half-darkly glass is settling and clearing up.

This literal system and ideal all started in Shinar with Nimrod, and it descended through the ages to the present, and it would be much too lengthy to document the details. As time passes, I now lean toward Babylon's literal physical rebuilt city. If it all started in Babylon, I reason it must end there.

Revelation 18:2 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.

Revelation 18:17 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!

This appears to be a literal city that will burn for a long time. On and just under the surface of this area is a great quantity of asphalt (bitumen). These merchants viewing are standing afar off. Perhaps a nuclear strike ignites this bitumen, and the radiation, fallout, and toxic chemicals in the smoke are the reason for the downwind observance?

Some time back, where did that lewd entertainer Madonna and others go to perform? Pope Frances traveled to Ur, Abram's home, for his ecumenical movement to unite the world's religions.

I now understand the United Nations has a plan and intentions of setting up shop in that area soon. I don't discount the other views, and it could also be a combination of some of these.

Babylon (Satan's influence on the human race) started in the garden of Eden.  In Babylon is found the blood of Abel.

And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slaughtered on the earth.  Rev 18:24

Babylon is simply a moniker for a place where Satan's influence is / was markedly strong.  I do agree that things are coming into focus more and more and we will know in due time.
