Understanding Mystery Babylon

The name Babylon is commonly known as a city in most peoples thinking. Many will understand that it was and is still a Kingdom to this day. However, while it began as a city, the kingdom of Babylon became a great system of security, a system of governance, economy and a system of religion. It has evolved over thousands of years being the vehicle through which Lucifer has honed his cunning on the masses of the inhabitants of the world. The kingdom of Babylon is featured prominently in the Bible and in historical writings, it was a kingdom that was born after the great flood as recorded in the book of Genesis.

Introduction
All Proper Students of History understand that what passes for "history" in orthodox accounts, and approved by the Powers-That-Be and presented by them to the gullible public as true accounts of past events and personalities therein are invariably flawed.

Moreover, the proper student of history also understands that these accounts are not academically flawed due to simple ignorance or poor research but that they are products of a careful, deliberate, co-ordinate and cynical effort to subvert objective history.
That is, the rulers of this Earth wish to conceal from the masses their true power, the true nature of this power and the true account of how they have garnered this power and the extraordinary lengths they go to extend this power over the masses.
The proper study of history reveals that there are two types of accounts possible: either everything on Earth happens by chance, that there is no design or purpose to it, or history is "made" and that there is design and purpose to what transpires on this Earth. Thus, logically, there are only two ways history can unfold: either it is entirely by happenstance or it is entirely by design.

Therefore, logically, a person can hold only one of these views of history: either they believe events happen merely by chance (akin to believing in "Evolution" as theorised by scientists) or, they believe history is by design and therefore part of a "plan" (akin to believing in "Creation of everything" by God). The former view is the Coincident View of History and is akin to "Darwinism." The Conspiratorial View of History admits to the "Creation of everything" by God.
All wise students of History immediately understand that the Conspiratorial View of History represents the true nature of human history. However, the "Darwinian view" -the Coincident View of History- is the orthodoxy promoted by the Powers-That-Be, the Establishment. Yet, the Conspiratorial View of History is the most ancient view fully supported by most prescient chroniclers but especially by those who wrought the Word of God into the Bible.

The name Babylon is commonly known as a city in most peoples thinking. Many will understand that it was and is still a Kingdom to this day.
However, while it began as a city, the kingdom of Babylon became a great system of security, a system of governance, economy and a system of religion. It has evolved over thousands of years being the vehicle through which Lucifer has honed his cunningness on the masses of the inhabitants of the world.
The kingdom of Babylon is featured prominently in the Bible and in historical writings, it was a kingdom that was born after the great flood as recorded in the book of Genesis.

The Beginning
The kingdom of Babylon was begun by a man called Nimrod. Nimrod was the son of Ham, who was the son of Noah. Noah was the man who God called to build an ark. This ark, as recorded in the scripture and discovered by Archaeologists, was a huge vessel designed to house animals, birds and humanity to ride the waters of the flood, which covered the whole earth.
Noah had 3 sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth. There is an interesting story that took place after the flood where Noah actually got drunk and was naked. Now one of his sons, Ham, saw him naked. He then reported this to his two brothers. The other two sons - Shem and Japheth came in to cover their father's nakedness, they walked in backwards to cover him. The scripture says:
Gen 9:24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him." (???) He then placed a curse upon Ham, or Canaan, his son. It is an interesting observation that Canaanites are heavily featured as continual enemies to Yahweh's people throughout the Biblical account.
Gen 10:8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
Gen 10:9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.
Gen 10:10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

A mighty hunter before the Lord. The term 'before the Lord' is interesting. The Hebrew word before can mean against, at war with. This is of course the reality of Babylon. Babylon was and is in opposition to Yahweh, the creator of the earth.

A mighter hunter before the Lord. This concept of being a mighty hunter, needs to be examined. The hunter was and is a 'marauder', a 'taker', he is not a developer. This concept needs to be kept in mind when considering Babylon as compared with Yahweh's kingdom. Lets look at this concept with the Sons of Isaac, Jacob and Esau.

Gen 25:27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

Jacob was a farmer and was content to develop the food and economy for his family and yet his brother, who was totally opposite to him, Esau, was a hunter, murder and killing was part of his blood lines. Esau was a taker, a hunter that marauded animals without any desire to develop or farm the animals or food. This is an important concept to understanding Babylon.

Gen 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. Gen 2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Gen 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

The point that needs to be made is that Yahweh planted a garden, this was the first act He did after creating man. He then placed man in the garden and said they should care for it. He gave them trees which brought forth fruit. Mans first place was not to be a hunter, a killer or a murderer, but a gardener.

So we see that Nimrod, who was the founder of Babylon, was a hunter, a taker, a marauder. History records Nimrod as a protector of the people. His status and reputation grew as he protected them against wild beasts and other marauders which were a threat to their safety.
As the people began to place more trust in their protector, Nimrod assumed god like powers and status. Remember Nimrod was a mighty hunter 'before the Lord (against the Lord). So his activity was about campaigning against Yahweh and getting people to trust in him as their protector, not in Yahweh.

Now all this must be understood in the light of the aftermath of the flood. Yahweh had promised that He would never flood the entire earth again and that His promise was sure. The sign of that promise was the rainbow in the sky. Therefore those of unbelief, who did not believe God (Nimrod and his people) the lineage of Ham and Canaan, decided to develop their own system of security. This system was based upon the governors of that system propagating their promises of security and safety for the people.

Being a cunning hunter and a good planner he began to realize that this job of protecting people by single handedly killing threats was too big. He figured that if he placed people in a compound that was fenced, this would be a more economical way of protecting them. Then the fence itself, invented and provided by Nimrod, would be credited to him.

So the concept of living in a fenced area and grouping people together was born. And it followed that if people were grouped together there had to be Laws to govern the people, there had to be rulers to enact the Laws and to ensure the Laws were adhered to.

It also followed that if people were grouped together with little land to grow food, their food had to be obtained from outside the city, thus an economy was born. It followed that if people could not grow food that they once did, they would have to pay someone else to grow that food for them. Keep in mind that these people were living for hundreds of years.

Gen 9:28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. Gen 9:29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.

Remember that Noah was 500 years old when he begat his sons Shem Ham and Japheth, and was 600 years old when the flood covered the earth. So Ham, his son Cush and his son Nimrod would have been living for hundreds of years. The development of the cities and the systems of governance and economies needs to be viewed in this light.

Josephus said: "Now it was Nimrod who excited them to such an affront and contempt of God...He also changed the government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of God....they built a tower the place being called Babylon." Antiquities of the Jews, Bk. 1,4:2,3.

This rebellion against Yahweh after the flood developed into the building of a city that could be somehow exempt from a future flood.

Gen 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

This is proof that the people involved in the development of this city were unbelievers and did not have faith in what Yahweh had promised. During the building process Yahweh decided to allow the fruit of the peoples rebellion to be manifested in their lives. This manifestation was the confusion of the people's languages. No one was able to understand each other, therefore the building stopped for a time.

Gen 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

The people were scattered abroad but the seed of Babylon was sown into the hearts of the rebellious people. This seed was then sown into the tribes of people wherever they were scattered across the face of the earth.This was the Beginning of Babylon. We could speak a lot more about the Tower itself, and it needs to be recognized that great men and great architects around the world have been trying to rebuild that great tower as a sign and evidence that great system of thought has been steadily growing for centuries until today.

"But the ancient Harappan Indus Valley Culture and the ancient Sumer Mesopotamia culture was soon conquered by the warriors of the Aryans who brought with them a theology appropriate for hunters who conquer their victims with violence. The Aryans, who are known to us by the various nations they set up (Mitanni, Assyrians, Brahmans, Hittites, etc) were the inventors of the spoke - wheeled war chariot and effective use of cavalry in war. The Aryans taught class systems and caste systems. They taught the theology of power. They taught a theology that justified their enslavement of other humans and their blood sacrifice." Bloodlines of the Illuminati. p9. Fritz Springmeier

Evidence of the great system of Babylon today is found in:
Rev 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

Babylon is here referred to as being in a fallen state. But the important thing, for the sake of this study, is that Babylon is referred to as a 'city' that has been capable of making 'all nations drink of the wine...'. Now it follows that if all nations have drunk of her wine that all nations are drunk or all nations are somehow effected by this wine.

Further evidence:
Rev 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: Rev 17:2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. Rev 17:3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. Rev 17:4 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: Rev 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, Babylon THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Rev 17:6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

So we can see that the 'kings of the earth' have committed fornication with her. Notice she is the great whore, full of blasphemy, drunkenness, death, blood, filthiness, gold, precious jewels, abominations and adultery. This is the fruits of Babylon.

And further:
Rev 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. Rev 18:3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

Political and Economic
This is how it works, the scripture says that the 'Merchants of the earth' own everything. So we see under Agenda21 that all recources are being organized under a beurocratic control grid, but that beurocratic control grid is allocated to Corporate companies that 'in bed' with, or as the bible says "kings and merchants have committed fornication'. What does this mean?
It means back room deals, it means corruption, it means that the Kings have learnt from Mystery Babylon that fornication is good, honesty is bad.

BUT for you, the public this is not revealed. This is the adultery. The Gov (kings) allocate contracts to their corporate mates. These corporate mates then pay off the Gov with handsome payoffs (taxes).

Think of some practical examples. CSG companies are coming into this country and raping the land spearing, drilling and fracking our people's farmland. The Kings of the earth (Govs) are not only allowing them to do it but are giving them 5 years tax exempt status, no water costs. BUT the farmer must pay. So what's in it for the Kings. We can see the Merchants taking the minerals BUT with permission of the Kings. So the KINGS AND MERCHANTS COMMIT FORNICATION.

Why is it fornication? Because the Gov is supposed to be looking after the people. But this is only a front.

Do you know how many ex- MPs work for these Merchants. These companies are full of ex MPs. This is the payoff.

The key thing here is public / private partnerships. In biblical language it is KINGS / MERCHANTS PARTNERSHIPS. This is how it works.

All commodities, all recources, all animals, all water, all air, all people are to be owned by the Merchants.

As some of my listeners have been sharing with us, Aust and its states are a Corporation and trade as such. Some of you are aware that the corporation have changed the names of the people so that the people can become a commodity under Canon Law or Roman Law or Statute Law or Maritime Law. We are all registered in the district of Columbia in the US. That is where the register of Corproations worldwide is. Look it up! Australia, and every state are corproations.

When were we told this? You see we have been brought into slavery.

Individuality, self sufficiency, independance are the enemy of the Kings and the Merchants. Communitarianism is the future of the New Order. You are the enemy if you do not conform to not only what the Gov mandates but what the Corporation mandates.

Corporatocracy KING and MERCHANTS all having sex together. They, the copration gets tax credits while your taxes increase. Ever noticed under a carbon tax that it is you that pays not the corporations. Non profit green companies get tax credits as they have better sex. This is what it is, this is the fornication, illicict relationships that enslave Yahweh's people.
The Kings look after their whores. This is what the Bible means when it states that Kings of the earth have committed fornication with her and the Merchants of the earth have become rich through fornicating with her.

POLITICAL, ECONOMIC, RELIGIOUS - THREE UNCLEAN SPIRITS LIKE FROGS.
Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Rev 18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

Now it is evident this idea, that started with Nimrod, has become so great, that at the time of the 'end game' Babylon has secured the services of Kings and of the Merchants and has secured the services of the churches. In fact, it has more than secured the services of, it has forged such a relationship with the churches that there is an interdependence formed.
This interdependence is such that every commodity on earth, every corporation, every nation, every church has become Babylon so that the scripture can say that all the world wondered after the beast.

At another time we will examine more fully exactly what the wine of Babylon is. But for today let us look at the principle of what Babylon is.

Cities.
The great city of Babylon is a great system of governance. It encompasses all banking interests, it encompasses all corporate systems, it encompasses all systems of religion.
It is a system that develops mysteries that only the appointed governors of the people can explain. These mysteries encompass all the aspects of life, political, social and spiritual. These mysteries are a key component of locking the people into the propagated security of Babylon. While people are kept in darkness they are taught to trust in the Priesthood that can explain all things to them in good time.

They are taught to trust the priesthood in order to find peace and forgiveness for daring to question the system that has been provided for them for their safety and security. That this system has been developed for them because of their sins, and the people must serve this system in order to find forgiveness and to atone for their sins.

The people are taught that the governors, the scientists, the doctors, the economists, the bankers, the ministers of religion, the clergy of all denomination, the pope are all the Priesthood - the Master Class and are to be revered, respected and trusted with all things pertaining to life and godliness.

This great city is in every way the complete opposite of Yahweh's way

Religious mysteries:
"There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain. And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord hath not spoken." Ezekiel 22:25-28 (c.570 BC)

"And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers." Jeremiah 11:9-10 (c.570 BC)

Let us look for a moment at the Religious aspect of Mystery Babylon. We have talked about the political - economic corporatocracy that exists and is developing further. But commentators on the New World Order often do not discuss the religious aspect of it, thinking that this aspect is not really the issue.

Note that all three pillars are important, Political, Economic and Religious.

Let us think of some 'Christian' doctrines that have been handed down from Nimrod and the original Babylon.

The worship of a Mother and Child was the woship of Nimrod and his wife Semiramis. As mentioned, Nimrod was seen as a Saviour for mankind, hence he was worshiped as a hero, a god. After his death, his wife Semiramis said that she was impreganted by the Sun and her new son Tammuz was actually Nimrod reincarnated. Now remember Babylon and Mystery.
Mystery = Nimrod is the Sun and then he is the child and then he is the Saviour as the child.
Now the worship of a woman and child is everywhere today and it is not Mary the mother of the true Messiah that is worshiped, see this is the trick. The mother and child were worshiped thousands of years before the birth of Yahshua, the son of God.
China - mother goddes called Shingmoo
Germans - virgin Hertha
Scandanavians - Disa
Etruscans - Nutria
Druids - Virgo Patitura
India - Indrani or Devaki and Crishna her son
Greeks - Aphrodite
Sumerians - Nana
Rome - Venus or Fortuna Child was Jupiter
Egypt - Isis and Horus

And in Ephesus where Diana was worshiped, it became official church doctrine in 431 AD that the worship of a Mother and Child was confirmed.

At a later time we will cover other doctrines that came from Babylon such as Easter, Christmas and the Trinity and the greatest conspiracy of all time, to change the name of Yahweh to just 'God' and 'Lord, totally accepted by all nations, oops all churchs today.

Now what we have mentioned are some common church docrines that have been handed down and we will cover these in more depth at another time. I would like to mention that the worship of Lucifer as 'the Christ' is central to NWO planners.

Mystery schools.
"Secret Societies are of two sorts: One where the existence is admitted but whose passwords, signs and proceedings are kept secret. The other, where not only the proceedings of the society are kept secret, but even the existence of such a society is concealed or denied. Formerly, the term "secret societies" (societates clandestinae) was used to describe societies that were known to exist, but whose members and places of meetings were not publicly known. Moreover, it was used not only to describe those organisations that posed as secret benevolent and social societies but also those who profess intimate knowledge of an ancient, mystical wisdom often called the "Ancient Mysteries." Most of these employ some form of mystic signs of recognition, initiatory rites, ceremonies, various grades of dignity and honour. Invariably, all claim great antiquity for their respective order.

Secret Societies may be religious, scientific, political or social and are organisations that, in general, divide humanity into four classes: the Profane, the Initiate, the Elect and the Occult Hierarchy. The first is those who are not members and represent the majority of humanity; the second are those who have taken the first steps of initiation into the Ancient Mysteries and represent the majority in the Secret Societies; the third are those who have ascended the initiation grades and have become the "Elect" and represent a minority in the Secret Societies; the fourth are those rare men who have ascended the heights of initiation and are the ruling Occult Hierarchy that sit atop of the dark Empire of the Secret Societies ruling it almost as "gods." http://overlordsofchaos.com

Foster Bailey, 32nd degree Freemason and co-founder of Lucifer Publishing Company (now called Lucis Trust), with his wife Alice A Bailey, describing Freemasonry's integral role in the New Age Movement and its ambition for a Masonic One World Religion: The Spirit of Masonry (1957)

"The most important re-orientation in the Hierarchy is the united focus on preparation for the reappearance of the Christ among men … The Christ is a living man today. He is a great world executive and is actively working to help humanity to grow up spiritually, but not seeking or wanting to control us … The Christ and the hierarchy are focused on new age actions and when externalized will use new age techniques … The Christian doctrine that he comes as a Christian to save us from hell and for some distant judgment date is a hangover from humanity's childhood days. He does not come to save us but to help us save ourselves."
"The New Age Movement is crucial to the destruction of Natural Moral Order on Earth as it is the herald of the One World Religion of the New World Order. It has been long planned and intricately manoeuvred and its central components are that it's disciples are working for the Hierarchy, which are Ascended Masters possessed with superhuman godlike powers to which we all can aspire if we so wish. The teachings of the New Age are given by the Hierarchy who let their disciples know that the appearance of the New Age Christ is imminent.
Furthermore, although the New Age Christ is what Bible-believers understand as Antichrist, the Occult Hierarchy has sanctioned the unparalleled propaganda of the New Age Movement into mainstream culture in readiness for the mass acceptance of the Antichrist. Thus, the demonic being that announces itself as Master Djwhal Khul has a main message to Alice Bailey and her disciples which is to "prepare men for the reappearance of the Christ. This is your first duty." (The Externalization of the Hierarchy, p.614)

Moreover, the Luciferian Gnostic Wisdom or Ancient Mysteries now practiced by both Freemasonry and the plethora of cults and creeds coming under the catchall "New Age" were given to humanity by the Occult Hierarchy. The Baileys, or rather, the Hierarchy of demonic beings speaking through the Baileys, confirm that the real purpose of Freemasonry, taught to man by the Hierarchy, is the quickening of the spiritual evolution of humanity and the transformation man's nature into a god-like superman.

Moreover, The Serpent, true friend of man, caused the Fall in the Garden of Eden by giving Eve this very same message that man could be as gods but the vengeful Yahweh cast the First Couple out whose progeny have suffered the injustice ever since. The Serpent is of course Lucifer, the "bringer of Light" … the Light of Illumination. For, in Gnosticism, Lucifer is not thought of as a person, but as a "force." He is in fact the pantheistic god of the New Age Movement, the great magical agent, The Force, that can be used for "Good or "Evil" depending upon the penchant of the practitioner. This is the Luciferian Doctrine at the heart of the Mystery Religions including the biggest secret society in the world -Freemasonry." http://overlordsofchaos.com

The UN and religion
Although the United Nations scam was sold to the world as a neutral meeting ground for equals where conflicts between nations could be resolved without the use of force, a sort of glorified talking-shop, it was never intended by its architects to be such a thing.
Those who are the most ardent supporters of the United Nations are an amalgam of Globalists, internationalists, Socialists, Communists, Liberals, "Social Democrats", "Greens," Environmentalists and other foolish people who think that by relinquishing national sovereignty and personal freedoms to an all-powerful World Government will bring security, peace and prosperity to all.

Nevertheless, the people who really work to bring this World Empire into being are those who think that they will be part of the oligarchy that is destined to rule it. Moreover, behind these ardent supporters are the true powerbrokers of the world, the Lords of Power, the Secret Group, the Secret Cabal who control the the Dark Empire of Secret Societies, of which Freemasonry is the largest.

These Secret Masters of the Dark Empire of Secret Societies are the Secret Leaders of the New World Order Plan, the Ancient Plan to Transform Society, which is the five thousand year old Luciferian Conspiracy for World Government that intends to eradicate all human freedom and liberty from the face of the Earth.

Summary.
Babylon is based upon these thoughts:
People need to dwell in cities for safety.

The governors of the cities are the experts which can be trusted
The governors of the cities charge taxes and levies to finance their system of governance.
These systems of economy, corporations, and governance are the hunters, the marauders of the people.

These marauders not only enact laws within their cities but actively roam the earth looking for further prey, hunting to take what is not theirs.

Babylon seeks to change the times and the laws of Yahweh. Its system of life and religion is based upon changing and substituting the original with Lucifer's New Order of governance- commonly understood as the New World Order.

This order is the order that was developed from the earliest times from the first war, which was a war of thoughts and methods and systems of governance. This order has a master Plan, and this plan is for the Creator of this New Order to sit as God in the seat of god, in other words to rule the earth and the people in it.

Eze 28:2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

This changing of Yahweh's laws is outlined in Daniel as the terrible fourth beast and the final little horn power that proceeds out of it. This beast is the last beast power, this beast is the great harlot, this beast is the great whore that holds the mysteries of life.

Dan 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

And if the people refuse to accept the new order of things with the changes to Yahweh's laws and the changes to Yahweh's times, changes to his calendar they will be isolated.

Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Yahweh's people are called to "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

And the first way to come out is to understand how it works and operates in every day life.
You see Yahweh's ways are the opposite of Babylon's.

Yahweh is a life giver - Babylon is a life taker
Yahweh gives babies - new life - be fruitful and multiply he says.
Babylon takes babies for human sacrifice, Babylon is a taker.
Yahweh gives light and enlightenment - Babylon gives drunkenness and mystery.
Yahweh gives understanding and eyesight - Babylon gives mysteries and darkness.
Yahweh gives peace - Babylon makes war.
Yahweh gives peace through forgiveness of sin - Babylon makes war with the saints.
Yahweh offers eternal life - Babylon offers eternal torment.

Choose you this day whom you will serve.
