The harlot is earthly wisdom who rules over the kings of the earth.
Let's cut this to where the rubber meets the Road.....The Harlot is the RCC, and her Harlots, are those she makes deals with in World Governments by whatever it takes to accomlish their goals.
Who recognized The Nazis in World War II .....Who also recognized Fascist Mussolini? Who is the Only "Christian" Church who is a voting member and Participant in the United Nations, an assembly.of those who despise democracy, and more for Socialism, and all it's lackeys and supporters?
Want to see these folks in their true colors? Google "Nazi-Vatican Photos" see for yourself.
I am a Former Catholic, Thank You Jesus, for showing me your truth......
Oh don't worry, He is a humble man and i doubt it ruffled him one bit. LOL, i'll remind him again when i phone him next...oh, blue names are male, pink names fems... and also...we agree....Israel is NOT the harlot....or Babylon the Great..
Discussions are good. They help us learn. I promise to not turn this into an argument.Who is this Harlot? I have heard many people speak of this in a few threads lately. I thought it would be a good subject to talk about. Although it is not a salvic issue, and hope we do not get into arguments and hated fights.I would however like to just point out a few things for you to consider. We can go through everything. You have made some good observations. This is a very intense study however. Basics have to be covered first. Please bare with me. I am speaking so plainly that a child can understand. This is for the benefit of everyone else reading, the young & people from other countries included. It has to be plain speech with no high words. It will take a few parts to cover. Thank you for this opportunity.
I agree with you here. You are using the process of elimination technique! USA doesn't fit.I have heard many differing ideas, The harlot is a nation, I have even heard (although not here) the United States is who the Harlot is (although I think most of the world would not shed a tear if the US was destroyed) so it could not be this.
Yes,she is very rich, but notice she is riding on the beast. She's the one controlling and holding the reigns.What we do know is the harlot is a powerful would influence. Very rich, Tends to side with the beast,
(This beast has 7 heads and 10 horns. Very important clue).
Rev 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom, The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
Explaination is right here. The meaning of the 7 mountains is explained in the very next verse. So simple.
Rev 17:10 And there are Seven Kings: Five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he comes, he must continue a short space.
So the harlot is sitting on Seven kings, but five are fallen (past, gone) Keep in mind that John was in the Roman Empire at the time of the vision. Again, so the five kingdoms that are fallen are history in Johns day, the one that IS must be the Roman Empire, and the other king (kingdom) that has not come is coming but will only rule for a short space.
So to find out who are these 5 kingdoms that have fallen we have to go to Daniel 2:32-35 to read about the image in King Nebs dream. We know that this is referring to the last days because;
Daniel 2:28 But there is a God in heaven that reveals secrets, and makes known to the King Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in THE LATTER DAYS, Thy dream, and visions of thy head upon thy bed are these.
and if we read on in Daniel 2:38 the interpretation is given.
Daniel 2:38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts ofthe field and the fowls of the heaven has he given unto thine hand, and has made you ruler over them all, THOU ART THIS HEAD OF GOLD.
So we know that King Neb was the King of Babylon. The head (fine gold) starts at the BABYLONIAN EMPIRE.
Daniel 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee
We know from history that the Medo-Persian empire conquered Babylon. In Daniel ch 5 it explains that king Nebs son, Belshazzar who was next & last king of Babylon, his kingdom was killed & conquered by the Medes (Darius)
Daniel 5:31 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about three score and two years old.
The Medes and Persians combined. (Darius & Cyrus.)
Daniel 6:8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altered not. See also Dan 6:28
(these are the breast and arms of silver Dan 2:32)
The Medo-Persian empire was conquered by Alexander the Great - Grecian Empire (Belly & thighs of silver Dan 2:32)
Daniel 2:39 .....and another third kingdom inferior to thee
Daniel 8:5 And I was considering, behold an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the he goat, had a notable horn between his eyes.
Daniel 8:7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and SMOTE the RAM, and brake his two horns (medo-persia) and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.
Daniel 8:8 Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.
So Alexanders great horn was broken. He died but wasn't conquered. His horn (kingdom) was divided between his four generals...they branched off with their own territories, but it became to large for them to control, they merged with the Romans (Roman/Greko era) and thus the Roman empire came up strong out of it.
Daniel 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things: as iron that breakes all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
Rome is the legs of iron (Dan 2:32) Rome was never conquered, she lost her power but her system is still here lingering. The british empire came up strong, but she is still of the Roman empire. Same system.
Now the last kingdom,
Daniel 2:34 . . .his feet part of clay
Daniel 2:41 And whereas you saw the feet and TOES, part of potters clay, and part of iron (rome) the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in if of the strength of iron mixed with mirry clay.
Daniel 2:42 And as the toes of the feet were PART of IRON and PART oF clay, so the kingdom shall be PARTLY STRONG , and PARTLY BROKEN
Daniel 2:43 And whereas thou saw IRON MIXED with MIRY CLAY, they shall MINGLE themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
How do we know how many kings are involved in this last kingdom? Well the toes consist of 10 digits. .. The Beast that the woman is riding has 10 horns. To find out what these horns mean;
Rev 17:12 And the ten horns which thou saw are ten kings, which have recieved no kingdom as yet; but recieve power as kings one hour with the beast. To go further into detail look also in Rev 13 - the first beast rising up out of the sea. Also see Daniel 7:7-8
So this last 5th kingdom is the feet & toes. The toes consist of 10 digits. (10 kings) These make one kingdom.
But that only makes 5 kingdoms? If we start before the head (babylon) we learn that Egypt was the first empire, and Assyria the second empire - then Babylon started. This makes a total of 7 empires (kingdoms) from beginning till the end when Christ returns.
So we know that mountains means kings (kingdoms) The harlot is sitting on 7 kingdoms. The harlot is called Babylon the Great - Mother of Harlots. She is riding the whole lot from the beginning to the end. The last kingdom will consist of 10 kings. During the days of these last 10 kings, will Jesus come and destroy.
to be continued
Not sure I understand. I do not see anything in revelations speaking of the daughters, but the woman herself.
Yes God said the desire for the woman will be her husband. But we are not talking about a wife. but a false wife. A harlot takes the wifes place in the bedroom, and acts as the wife. She is not an actual wife but a "false wife"
as for your example. Thats the state for ya. We do not care about kids, just the rules.. sucks!!
.
So a quick recap. Theres a woman riding a beast. She is called MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. We determined that the beast she was riding has 7 heads and ten horns. We went to Daniel and found out that the 7 heads symbolise 7 major empires that have existed from the beginning and the last empire (toes) will consist of 10 nations combined together as one powerful kingdom. We established that this is the last kingdom to rule man, and Jesus will come again during the kingdom of these kings.
This Harlot, is described as the Mother of Harlots. She is at the top. She is called Babylon the Great. She has a main system that the world follows - Commerce . . .Trade. making money . . .banks . . .This is her worldly side. The 10 kings are going to hate the whore - Babylon the Great.
Rev 17:16 And the ten horns which thou saw upon the beast, these shall HATE the WHORE, and shall make her DESOLATE and NAKED, and shall EAT HER FLESH, and BURN HER with FIRE.
So we can see that the ten kings are very powerful here. They have the power to bring down her money system. These ten kings are the first beast in revelations. They are the ones that are preparing the way for the False Prophets arrival. How will they eat the flesh of the whore? They will cause mayhem . . . . the world will need a 'saviour' to rescue them . . how will they eat her flesh? They will cause the whole world to go bankrupt. Nation by nation, bank by bank. They will cause the economy to fall. People are going to loose their houses, their jobs, their positions. Food will be expensive to buy. The world will be in turmoil. Sickness will follow and crime will escalate. The world will be crying out somebody help us please...ufo's, gods, messiahs, anyone, please help!
Enter the false prophet.
(The harlot was there from the beginning. Satan thinks he is so clever, he sets up her system, makes us all totaly dependant on her, then strips her naked so we can become extremely desperate and welcome a completely new system like never before. One leader controlling the world's money system.probably because the Harlot would then know the true purpose of this world leader, and turn against him,
Rev 13:16 And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to recieve a mark in their foreheads;
Rev 13:17 And that no man can buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
And if you dont want to follow this new brilliant system, watch out, he's got plans for you.
So, back to the ten kings . .they do not know the true purpose, they only eat the whores flesh because of Greed. They want to control the world (New world order) and without realising it, they have their perfect man to lead and he will come up shortly after. They give their power to this man. He is described as the 2nd beast in Revelations 13:11-18.
So who is the whore?
Rev 17: 15 The waters which thou saw, where the whore sits are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
Yes she is sitting on the beast which is sitting on the waters, and waters are made up of peoples, multitudes, nations and tongues...everybody. The world. Babylon the Great, Mother of Harlots is the World's system, ruled by Satan. She is not a real woman, she is also symbolic of a spiritually contaminated woman. She has daughters too, and these daughters make up false religions, false beliefs & false teachings. Anything that goes against God. All abominations. She is a harlot because she fools around on God giving herself to others. Her daughters are all the nations of the world, including Rome & Israel as well. They were born out of her and Jesus will destroy her spiritual & material side when he comes and she will never exist again, ever.
I think we agree on quite a bit with a few exceptions but your very cluey & have some great points! I could go on and on forever but I think this is enough for now! Too much info in one hit can sometimes block (and I dont mean you) So Hope this helps.

she looks like her Mother and does what she's told.
zonest.
she is the mother of harlots,so she obviously has daughters.
""wakeup""
Can't be Israel, Israel has never done this.
Can't be Israel, for she has not ruled any nation, Nor, even as a nation today, does she have any say in other nations political affairs.
Again can't be Israel, for she is not called Great, nor is she Great.
Again can't be Israel, No one on earth, or very few at the least, will cry out that Israel was a power
what about vs 11: 11 “And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her
Who is going to mourn over the death of Israel, The world will rejoice over her death if it was her, For the world has been tryin gto destroy her since she was formed (even today)
The harlot was loved throughout the world, And her loss is painfull to many because of this love, Does the world love Israel?
Your continued insistance that the harlot is Israel is false. for the reasons I just gave and MANY MANY MORE!!
Going off what I just said. What religious power on earth has the power to affect nations, Is loved by the world so greatly that if she fell the world would morn for her.
Remember, this could not be a pegan or "non Christian" power, for she is a harlot, No pegan or non christian power such as islam is decaring to be the bride of Christ.
Ah yes!, But the passage says the MOTHER will be destroyed, so this is who we should concentrate on, for if we find the mother, we know who it is.

or do you believe Jesus was crucified in Rome or Damascus or Tehran or NY City?

Who ordered the crucifiction of Jesus? And what City ruled that power that gave the authority for Jesus to be crucified? Jerusalem did not crucify Christ, they had no power.

27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him. 28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. 29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. 30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. 31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

Revelation 6:16
They called to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
is it talking about ROME, or NY? how about Los Angeles or Tripoli...or Bagdad? or Moscow?...or is Jerusalem.
