Revelation 18

The Book of Revelation

REVELATION 18

18:1After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.

18:2He cried with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird!

*** Fallen is Babylon (The Economic System will collapse), habitation of demons, prison of unclean spirits (Nations part of the United Nations, corruption and Money).

18:3For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury.”

*** All Nations have drunk the Wine of Wrath, all Nations of the World are part of the United Nation System, “Wall street”, the Kings of the World (All of our leaders) grew rich from the abundance luxury;

18:4I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don’t receive of her plagues,

*** The plagues are all of the things that will happen when the System collapses … No house, No food, etc !!!

18:5for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.

*** For her sins have reached to the sky, the paper money … interests … corruption … etc.

18:6Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.

*** Revelation 18:6 talks about the interests that you pay back for lending money !!!

18:7However much she glorified herself, and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, ‘I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.’

18:8Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for the Lord God who has judged her is strong.

*** In one day her plagues will come, in one day the System will collapse … death, mourning and famine !!!

18:9The kings of the earth, who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her, will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning,

18:10standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.’

18:11The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more;

*** The Merchants of the Earth (All of the companies on the Stock Market like Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, … all of the Merchants, large and small).

18:12merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble;

18:13and cinnamon, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, sheep, horses, chariots, bodies, and people’s souls.

*** All of the worlds Merchants, the whole complete system will collapse !!!

18:14The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you, and all things that were dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you will find them no more at all.

*** All of your money, your house, cars will be gone and will not come back becaue of this collapse.

18:15The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning;

18:16saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!

18:17For in an hour such great riches are made desolate.’ Every shipmaster, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood far away,

18:18and cried out as they looked at the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like the great city?’

*** This is an important sign (Double meaning), the complete crash will happen in New York where the United Nations AND Wall Street is, the smoke of her burning also points to New York (Remember the 9/11 attacks) !!!

18:19They cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth!’ For in one hour is she made desolate.

*** Also points to New York, dust on their heads, they cried, weeping and mourning (9/11 attacks)

18:20Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets; for God has judged your judgment on her.”

18:21A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all.

18:22The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman, of whatever craft, will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you.

*** Revelation 18:22 talks about the COMPLETE collapse of the System, not the collapse of 2008, this talks about the COMPLETE collapse that is still to come !

18:23The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.

18:24In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.”

Revelation 11

The Book of Revelation

REVELATION 11

11:1A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise, and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.

11:2Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the gentiles. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.

11:3I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”

11:4These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands, standing before the Lord of the earth.

11:5If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.

11:6These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.

11:7When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.

*** The United Nations came after the Second World War – The birth of the United Nations !

11:8Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.

*** The great city, New York, Headquaters of the United Nations !

11:9From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.

11:10Those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.

11:11After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.

11:12I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them.

11:13In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

11:14The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly.

11:15The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”

11:16The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,

11:17saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was*; because you have taken your great power, and reigned.

11:18The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints, and those who fear your name, to the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

11:19God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
