WHAT IS THE SPIRITUAL BABYLON

THE SECOND ANGEL MESSAGE AND THE CRY AT MIDNIGHT

 

Created in the 19th century, the movement of the second coming (Adventism) illustrated the ten virgins                      ( Matt 25.1- 13 ), of which 5 have taken oil for lamps and 5 - not taken when went to meet the bridegroom.

VIRGIN  -  those who consider themselves to be children of God ( 2 Cor 11.2 )

LAMP  -  the Bible ( Psalm 118.105, 2 Peter 1.19 )

OIL  -  Holy Spirit ( 1 John 2.20, 27; Acts 10.38 )

 

The delay of the groom - disappointment in the spring of 1844, when Christ was expected for the first time ( Matt 25.5, Abb 3.1-3 ). They have fallen asleep before midnight ( interval between 21 March and 22 October 1844).

 

"At midnight, shout: the groom goes!" Call the movement led to the treatment of many people.

When in 1844, the expected Christ, much of Christianity had rejected this appeal (and the news that he's coming soon), and THIS CAUSED the moral and the spiritual DOWNFALL OF BABYLON ( Revelation 14.8 ).

It was the second Angel's message, which merged with the midnight cry, and during three months drew 50000 people.

 

Joy and sorrow, frustration is illustrated in the Rev 10.10 (eat the book sweetness and bitterness) - Matt 21.1-11, Luke 24.17-21

But still a third message was supposed to be before Jesus comes ( Rev 10.11, 14.9-14 ).

BABYLON THE HARLOT AND HER DAUGHTERS

 

The whore is a symbol of the fall of the Church broke away, or people.

The beast on which it sits, there is the symbol of Rome, and she is supported by Rome and the Catholic Church. It is named after the harlot, because changes to God with the Earth's power.

The name of this harlot   -  Babylon (mixing and falling away).

All the rest of the State Church, incurred in the same way, there are her daughters ( Rev 17.5 ).

 

Thus, the concept of "Antichrist" refers to all false (especially official) churches.

The wine of her fornication is false teachings.

The false church are SPIRITUAL LECHERY ( Rev 17.2, 18.3 ).

 

The false church "satisfied the blood of the saints", as was their ( Rev 17.6,18-24 ). This is nefarious and worldly Church ( Rev 17.1-5 ).

It is destroyed when the second coming as her daughters ( Rev 18.8,21;19.1-3 ) and because recommended to all the children of God TO LEAVE FROM IT ( Rev 18.4 ).

VIOLATION, THE MORE CONSCIOUS, EVEN ONE OF THE COMMANDMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE THE FOURTH OR SECOND, IT IS INADMISSIBLE AND PUNISHABLE ( JAC 2.10-11 ).

THE MAIN THING IN BABYLON - MIXING TRUTH WITH FALSEHOOD. MANY BELIEVE IT'S HARMLESS, BUT AS ONE SPOON SPOONFUL OF FLY SPOILS THE WHOLE BARREL OF HONEY AND MAKE IT UNFIT TO EAT, SO EVEN ONE, MUCH LESS SEVERAL FALSE DOCTRINES DOES ALL RELIGION FALSE BECAUSE ITS PEOPLE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PLEASE HIM.

GOD CALLS ALL PEOPLE OF FALSE CONFESSIONS AND RELIGIONS, THAT IS SPIRITUAL BABYLON, AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND TO WITHDRAW FROM IT ( REV 18.4 ) AND JOIN A CHURCH OF REST, WITH THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST AND THE COMPLIANCE WITH ALL GOD'S COMMANDMENTS ( REV 12.17 ).
