The Scribes, Pharisees and priest of ancient Israel was a religious system too!
1. How does America or a religious system of today fit this description, "
the woman sitting on the scarlet beast in revelation 17:3?
the beast is Satan,
The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.
2. How does America or a religious fit this description of being divided into 3 parts?
Revelation 16:19, Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath
split into 3 parts could mean many things. Including those who trust our government, those who think our government is corrupt and foul and those who are indifferent as long as it doen'ts affect their immediate lies.
3. How does America or a religious system fit this in Revelation 17:6 "I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.”
Saints have been martyred all over the world. There are other nations more guilty of this then America.
not everything has come to pass, but there many events in the past we have been involved in (including arming other nations) who have slain countless numbers, abortions, and lets not forget we haven't seen the end of the story yet. If you are against homosexuality or the things of this world you are already seen as a biggot and we may not be too far away from being persecuted for such outspoken views.
4.
God's People were called out of her (Babylon, Israel).
Revelation 18:4 reads,
“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.” If America is Babylon, where is He calling His saints too?
likely it means GO ANYWHERE lol anywhere but here. Maybe I should move to England
5.
The harlot will be hated by the beast, Revelation 17:16 so who is the beast and do they hate America today or do they hate what ever religious system you think this might be. I see the world hating Christians, I don't see Catholics hating us, or Mormons, or JWs,... I see some atheists hating us, I see some Muslims hating us, but not all. I see some countries hating us, but not all, I don't see Italy hating us.
again, the beast is Satan set to come up out of the abyss.
6. How has America or any nation or religious system been punished double for all her sins?
Revelation 18:6
haven't gotten there yet, thats when the earth is judged.
and just to add something really quick, lets not forget babylon will have many ports and will be a great trader with the earth.
“The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes anymore
. why to you reject the proof I presented?
