Rev. 16:17-19 is what I posted about the earthquake splitting the US into three.

Earthquake.... will.... split... the defenseless nation of the United States...into three parts, you say?

Humm...isn't the United States already divided into three parts? The Continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii?

LOL!!!!! Sorry, you do not make any sense with your private interpretation about the great city.

Revelation 16 is NOT talking about the physical nation of the United States or any nation as a "great city." Let's check with Scripture again:

Revelation 16:19
  • "And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath."
The great city is God's New Testament Congregation that has become unfaithful! Get it?! This hearkens back to the Lord's judgment upon His people in three different ways to signify His will and purpose is accomplished in this. The number three is symbolic of the will and purpose of God. He destroys them by plagues, by the Sword, and by famine. In this judgment upon His people by 3 parts is illustrated this is brought upon them by God that His purpose is accomplished in this great judgment. See Ezekiel 5 for this example of judgment upon a people divided into three parts, destruction by plague, famine and sword. These three symbolic of the destruction of the unfaithful.

Ezekiel 5:1213
  • "A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
  • Thus shall mine anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know that I the LORD have spoken it in my zeal, when I have accomplished my fury in them."
See? Three parts! For example, the plagues are likened to spiritual boils or diseases, the famine which is a lack of hearing the word of God, and the sword which is the word of God that is against them. Thus shall that once great city be divided into three parts and fall hearkening back to (or in remembrance of) Babylon before God (Ezra 5:12), to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

Revelation 16:21
  • "And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great."
It is about SPIRITUAL DELUSION or INSANITY because they would not receive God's truth in love. This is the plague God has brought upon His unfaithful people because of their hard hearts. This is what I believe is taking place right now. No need to look for the United States, Rome, or Jerusalem in world news! Selah!

Um, but Marylin C - didn't you say this last year?
"Still if the Lord does bring the Russian Federation and the other 3 nations down to the Golan Heights in January, will you consider what I say?" Russia Preparing for War.
Yes, however I said `IF,` for we can only go by the Jewish calendar and thus do not know the year. IF the trib, is next year then the rapture will be, (according to my calculations from the Jewish calendar) in February.

Thank you for taking note.

Old Babylon is definitely being rebuilt as the pictures show. Thus, that prophecy is still for the future.

Ummm, but I also note that in the previous post you had no such qualifications.
In your opinion how much should the church listen to people who make false eschatological predictions once they fail?

OK - IF.
So it didn't happen - so I don't have to consider what you say.

I was careful and that is why Jesus was able to reveal this to me. If you insert what you believe in place of where I wrote US in my original you will laugh at how ridiculous your idea is as the fulfillment of Babylon the great.

The scriptures I posted say Babylon of old will never be revived. In other words Babylon the old will never fulfill Babylon the great.
Is.13:1 and 17-221 The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw. 17 Behold, I am going to stir up the Medes against them, Who will not value silver or take pleasure in gold. 18 And their bows will mow down the young men, They will not even have compassion on the fruit of the womb,Nor will their eye pity children. 19 And Babylon, the beauty of kingdoms, the glory of the Chaldeans’ pride, Will be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. 20 It will never be inhabited or lived in from generation to generation; Nor will the Arab pitch his tent there, Nor will shepherds make their flocks lie down there. 21 But desert creatures will lie down there, And their houses will be full of owls; Ostriches also will live there, and shaggy goats will frolic there. 22 Hyenas will howl in their fortified towers And jackals in their luxurious palaces. Her fateful time also will soon come And her days will not be prolonged.

“Babylon” . . . signifies confusion.

Used in Scripture to describing the various forms of false or apostate religion.

In Revelation 17 Babylon is represented as a woman—a figure which is used in the Bible as the symbol of a church, a virtuous woman representing a pure church, a vile woman (harlot) an apostate church

” (Revelation 13:12). The United States will lead the nations of the world in forcing allegiance to the papal antichrist.

Two beasts .... First beast papal antichirst ...... second beast (USA) ....

Revelation 13

11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb (apostate protestantism), and he spake as a dragon. 12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

John sees an abominable woman, "the Mother of Harlots" sitting on a scarlet beast (a mother who has daughters) . She signifies "the great city that rules over the kings of the earth" (Revelation 17:18).

In the book of Revelation it's all about worship .... and there will many who will be deceived into worshiping false gods.

We are seeing prophecy unfolding in real time .... there is no other religious power that mingles with all the kings of the earth .... other than the papacy. The pope does so coaxing all (the kings of the earth) to unite for the "common good" being largely driven by the "climate change" agenda as well ....

ecumenism

Pope Benedict XVI and Ecumenism: A Retrospective

It is the intent of the papacy to unite all christians under the direction/leadership of the catholic church.

Jesus did not come to unite ..... but to divide.

Luke 12:51 , “Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three.” In Matthew 10:34 Jesus states, “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to earth.

He is calling His people to come out of false religious systems.

Revelation 18:4

New King James Version
And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.

Paul writing to Timothy didn't seem to think that even Timothy should expect direct guidance on stuff, but should instead devote himself to the scriptures. What makes you have higher expectations than Paul had of Timothy?

Also, are the scriptures only able to partially explain stuff to us? Or fully? Does Paul here leave us feeling like we need more?

2 Timothy

14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

The Pope & RCC do not control all religions, plus atheists etc. It is the UN`s moral laws that are throughout society, business and governments. These are - tolerance, inclusive, respect etc (of all perversions)

Babylon is rising. It will become the capital of the world, the richest and most decadent.

The pope promotes humanism .... not Jesus. The "common good" ..... ecumenism

Humanism
.
an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. Humanist beliefs stress the potential value and goodness of human beings, emphasize common human needs, and seek solely rational ways of solving human problems.

Jesus did not come to unite .... but to divide.

It's not about man's laws (UN or otherwise) it's about God's laws and the divinity of Christ.

However, it is because of man`s so called moral laws by the UN that people can be put in prison, not because they look to the Pope or believe in Humanism.

USA is Babylon the great
(Jerusalem) Is The harlot, Mystery Babylon The Great.

The Levitical High Priest Dressing represents "The Woman", that is dressed in purple, scarlet, gold, and precious stones as seen below

(Revelation) 17:4KJV

4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

Yes "The Woman", The Levitical High Priest, Dressed In Purple, Scarlet, Gold, And Precious Stones

(Exodus) 28:15-20KJV
15 And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.
16 Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
18 And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.

(Jerusalem) is the seven Mount city, where the woman sits, not Rome as many falsely claim.

(Revelation) 17:9KJV

9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.

List of cities claimed to be built on seven hills - Wikipedia
Jerusalem, Israel: Jerusalem's seven hills are Mount Scopus, Mount Olivet and the Mount of Corruption (all three are peaks in a mountain ridge that lies east of the Old City), Mount Ophel, the original Mount Zion, the New Mount Zion and the hill on which the Antonia Fortress was built.

The Roman Empire didnt exist to be guilty of the Prophets blood seen below, Jerusalem did.

(Revelation) 18:24KJV

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

(Matthew) 23:29-37KJV
29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Jerusalem (The Woman) that (Great City) as seen below, Jerusalem where Jesus Christ was crucified

(Revelation) 17:18AKJV

18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

(Revelation) 11:8AKJV
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

Jews/Hebrews cast dust upon their heads, weeping for the (Great City) Jerusalem

(Revelation) 18:19 AKJV

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

It's not over yet ..... (papal rulership) will indeed come .... that is why the "common good" (humanism) is being promoted through the papacy (because it includes everyone)

It will be a repeat of the dark ages.

I check the references .... did you?
For example, there is no publication 'Barclay, Chapter XXVII, p. 218, “Cities Petrus Bertanous”' which contains the supposed but fabricated quotation by Pope Pius V. The fancy/foreign sounding title and chapter and page number were meant to deceive you. Notice there is no date given for this publication or first name of "Barclay," that is a warning sign that should make one proceed with caution. If you thought it through at least one anti-Catholic who actually found powerful documentation that the pope said he was the same as God or something similarl would be expected to post an image of such a page or a link to the page. For a second example of a bogus source for a fabricated quotation supposedly from a pope, there was no publication in 1895 called the Catholic National. You said you checked references, what kind of checking did you do?

"There are not over a hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church — which is, of course, quite a different thing. These millions can hardly be blamed for hating Catholics because Catholics “adore statues”; because they “put the Blessed Mother on the same level with God”; because they say “indulgence is a permission to commit sin”; because the Pope “is a Fascist”; because the “Church is the defender of Capitalism.” If the Church taught or believed any one of these things it should be hated, but the fact is that the Church does not believe nor teach any one of them. It follows then that the hatred of the millions is directed against error and not against truth. As a matter of fact, if we Catholics believed all of the untruths and lies which were said against the Church, we probably would hate the Church a thousand times more than they do."
Bishop Fulton Sheen
