    Dear Friends

    Babylon the Great Desribed is present day Christinity,

    it doesn't take away one sins, meaning one continue in it for life, turning the Grace of God into lasciviousness

    it doesn't comform one to the image of His Son, the Divine Nature, having escape the corruption of this world through lust

    & it leaves one, one with the world, in the lust of the flesh, eyes & the pride of life of this world.

    it feed one from the knowledge of the tree of good and evil, the wisdom that from below, for instance Jesse teaching & not from the Fountain of the Spirit that comes from the Tree of Life, the Lord God from heaven, who is the Life, Spirit & Substance of all things

    Jeremiah 50:11-16

    Revelation 18:4-8

    in love & truth

    Hi Frankie, Just meditating a little. Babylon is clearly a hostile environment for the believer and yet God draws men to Christ on the Cross even this day, so we harden not our hearts to this purpose while yet dwelling in Babylon.

    Hi Carleton

    yes, God reaches out to us while we're yet in Babylon, We must become obedient, pick up the cross & follow Christ out of her as commanded. lests we become partaker of her sins & plagues. Rev 18:4

    2 Cor 6:14-18

    I agree with this FrankieJ. One experience I have had is my own flesh still wants to be a king in Babylon even after finding an assurance of Salvation by the mighty peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. So we share.

    Thank you FrankieJ! Even Daniel who died in faith lived in the flesh in Babylon. The warfare that continues is between the flesh and the Spirit. Our heart cannot be in this world or we are trying to serve two masters. So it is spiritual vs natural. Only until we die we need by the Grace and peace of God in Christ keep His peace while in the flesh in its darkness and His marvelous Light. We, however do not by our own flesh want to give honor of the power of Christ to any part of this world. We can love our neighbor because He first loved us in saving grace. Honor the True King. He left us in the conquered world for His purpose for a time. His Kingdom is present and Spiritual if we only believe until the end.

    I've found 1 actual apostle. Gino Jennings all other churches I cannot speak any good about them...
  • Texsis - In Reply - 1 year ago
    Not even Voddie Baucham? I shall listen to Gino & give him a try.! Thnx, always in search of good, diff, teachings.
  • Jordian - In Reply - 1 year ago
    No not voddie

    Love his enthusiasm of how lufe is & what things should be like, like his teaching from Proverbs. Spot on.! He does a great job, IF he wants to be an influancer & in my opinion, he really should concentrate on children.

    I'd have liked to hear more God truth cuz evil is something we all know & see daily & to keep focusing on it, takes our focus off God.! However, from all the ones I listened to, although truthful & very intertaining, (99% to 1%) he doesn't focus on Christ as much as he does the enjoyment of intertaining ppl which inturn gets them feeling good & (in hopes of having a better life), gets them to give their hard earned money getting Nothing inreturn..TILL..

    God has to undo everything they learned backwards inorder to open their heart to His truth ! That is:Jesus is The ONLY way, The ONLY truth & The ONLY Life! For w/out HIM & HIS DBR, we are NOTHING my friend.! DEFINITLY NOT as good as Voddie Baucham. At least he reads from THE word & exsplains in detail what things mean biblically, the way God intended.!. NOT other way around. Mr.Jennings does it worldly, "we are in the world yet not to be of it".!

    *Heavenly Father I beg of you to open the hearts of believers that earnestly seek you yet keep getn turned away by wolves in sheeps clothing. Lord I ask that you guide them all before it ends up making your work harder so you can get their minds renewed in your truth. We need more of You in our lives cuz evil comes naturally. Lord, infact, if you would just get ppl AWAY from all electronics even if for a few days, letting them see how times would be when we will not have such. Please, hear my words in prayer as I ask of these things in your Sons name, Amen*.!

    Explain "her" please? You said it twice.!
  • Rainwalker - In Reply - 1 year ago
    There are two women in Revelation, one is a harlot with a name.. Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth. Revelation 17:5. The other is God's true church, the bride of Christ.
  • Texsis - In Reply - 1 year ago
    Oh, I see, thnx.! Fixen to look up Gino Jennings. Will get bk to you on him. I used to be an avid listener of Joyce Meyers till I figured out her stratagy.! Wow, what I'v found about many t.v. evangalist is just sickening. Some ppl may actually be saved listening to them however, as I was, yet we must keep in mind, God knows & has their heart if they truly believe, He will turn their eyes from evil in Him time.! So yes I most definitly will look Gono up & thank you again. God works w/each of us differantly. Some are going to prefer one over another for how & what they teach according to what God wants for us & in His direction we should follow.!
