2016, Sherry Shriner --  In the last days the Bible talks about a dominant city [or nation as the word 'city' may be figurative-Ed.] that is a major center of commerce that will be destroyed in one hour: Mystery Babylon The Great. Many in the church claim this is referring to the Vatican in Rome; they're wrong. To hold the view that view, you basically ignore 98% of the Scriptures referring to it and hold to one verse about the seven hills that's easily discredited and clarified. 

      Former prophets warned of this coming Great Babylon; there are over 100 verses from Isaiah, Jeremiah and John in Revelation as follows:

​      Let's look at Revelation 17
 
   And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials and talked with me saying unto me, 'Come hither; and I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: (Revelation 17:1)

       The Apostle John is told by one of the seven angels holding the seven vials (known as the 7 bowl judgments) that he is going to show him the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters. The term whore is in reference to the Greek word "porne" which in English we use for pornography. In Greek it is also used for improper sexual relations which could mean anything sexual that occurs outside of marriage. To the Jews who consider their relationship with God as a marriage, then the term could also be used  worshiping another god or deity. In other words, idol worship.
 
       Another thought is the fact that this nation has gone outside God and has aligned itself with someone or something else. In America, Satanism and witchcraft have become dominant, not to mention their alignment with Aliens and the forces of Satan in exchange for technology. America has over 129 deep underground military bases. How many of them are being used as joint military-alien bases? At least 32 including the Dulce Base in Dulce, New Mexico, Area 51 in Nevada, Los Alamos in Taos, New Mexico, and many others across the country.
 
       The sentence "sitteth upon many waters" in Strongs it's #5204 which is figurative for many peoples. America is the melting pot of the world as far as immigration. We also are surrounded by fresh water from the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Great Lakes, and the Gulf of Mexico. Not to mention the many lakes, streams and rivers throughout this country. But the term 'waters' in relation to symbolism and Bible prophecy usually relates to people.
 
     With whom the kings of the earth have commmitted fornication and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication (Revelation 17:2). 

This verse coincides with Jeremiah 51:7 "Babylon has been a golden cup in the Lord's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken her wine; therefore the nations are mad."
 
       America has influenced the other nations of the earth to partake in her fornication. They are drunk with the wine of her fornication. They are filled with God's wrath as they partake in America's fornication which is adultery, fornication, homosexuality, lesbianism, intercourse with animals etc. and also idol worship. Worshiping things outside and contrary to the Lord.
 
      America is steeped in its masonic heritage with its masonic and satanic idols and symbols all over the land from the statue of Liberty to the dollar bill.
 
       Not only are the many perversions here spreading across the world, but the kings of other nations have also been negotiating their own treaties with the aliens and Satan's forces to gain technology from them.
 
      The Christian nations, or what were considered at one time to be Christian nations, have turned their backs on God and have climbed in bed with the devil. This gives him access and authority to rule over these nations and he's overtaken them all as he prepares to come to earth as the Antichrist. Even the Gentile nations have secretly gotten involved with the greed of having their own UFO technology.
 
   So he carried me away in the spirit into the wildernesss: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns (Revelation 17:3).

       The woman is sitting on the beast. She's dominating the red colored beast that is full of names of blasphemy and has seven heads and ten horns.
 
      The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sitteth as revealed further down in Revelation 17:9. The term mountains in symbolism can refer to  a land mass or a political authority. In this instance, she sits in authority over 7 mountains, or land masses. The Seven continents. The final "Rome", the final great empire of the earth, will rule the earth, literally. The last great empire on earth will rule over all the continents on it. How? Economics, refer to Revelation 13:17 where the entire world must join the beast economic policy. The United Nations dominates and rules over the continents of the earth [that is primarily Islam nations--Ed.].
 
      Horns are symbolic of leaders. It could be signifying a 10 nation confederacy that America is in alignment with, or 10 leaders, a council, that rules and dominates. We have also seen where the United Nations has divided the world up into 10 spheres, and plan for a leader to each sphere.
 
      Still yet, Babylon sits on top of the UN and dominates her. Babylon the whore, dominates the beast and his 7 heads and 10 horns.
 
   And the woman was arrayed in purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication (Revelation 17:4).

      The woman is dressed in purple and scarlet. In symbolic term purple represents royalty and in the last days, red represents the false Jews, the Edomites, and/or the isms such as communism, socialism, fascism, etc..
 
       Gold and jewelry signifies her wealth. The woman is seen as royalty. What does royalty have? Wealth, power, and authority and she contains Edomites and/or one of the isms. John even describes "having a golden cup in her hand" which is a trademark of the Statue of Liberty which was originally designed to hold a cup, but was changed to hold a torch instead to be a light in the harbor for ships for navigation.  Cup is also used as a term for judgment. The term abominations means moral or physical pollutions. It is also just another term for sin. Abominations are sins.  Fornication means  impurity and/or idolatry. Idolatry in her unholy relationship with Satan, secret societies, aliens and fallen angels. America has many idolatries. She is filled with them.
 
       A nation holding a cup. She is holding judgment (perhaps meting out judgment on others as policeman of the world)  filled with her many idolatries not to mention treaties with unholy Satanic alien beings. Yep, this sounds like America. Have we stooped this low? Yes.
 
   And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" (Revelation 17:5).

        I view this verse a bit differently than most. The term Mystery always seems to have an occultic connotation to it. Or it can mean a secret. In this instance I think we can let it speak for itself since it  is in regards to unholy Satanic ridden Babylon in that it is a mystery is in regards to the occult. Or even that it operates, secretly (although getting more out in the open) through satanic secret societies that worship the devil. Not to mention the shadow government that operates behind the scenes in alliance with Lucifer and his alien forces.
 
       In other words, Mystery, or Occultic Babylon the Great. The term harlots is another term used for prostitutes. These kinds of terms are almost used in regards to religious terms. I have seen in the Bible Codes where the Hebrews use the term such as prostitution for those who prostitute the Bible. It has a religious and sexual meaning. But in this instance, I am led to believe it is the religious one.

 America, the Mother of Prostitutes. 

The Mother of all those who prostitute the Word of God, or Him. Some of you cannot fathom the idea that America is this evil. You hold this country in high esteem with all its pastors and religious leaders, our churches, radio and television networks that seemingly teach and preach His Word and about Him to the world.  But once you get away from the religious programming and start seeking Him for the truth you realize how evil our religious system is and how these false doctrines that most of our religious leaders and churches teach today are leading people to the pit of hell and not to HIM. And until you do that you will not understand the significance of this verse. These prostitutes are the false prophets and false shepherds leading this country, and going out into the world, evangelizing and leading people to the pit of hell instead of to Him. They are preaching a false gospel and a different Jesus than the one He came here as. Yahweh told me, "They proclaim My Name, but they know Me not!"  It is that horrifying and that simple.
 
     And if this isn't enough to prove to you that this entire passage of Scripture is talking about America, read the book America, The Babylon by R.A. Coombes as he goes into an indepth study on our masonic Statue of Liberty (a representation of the goddess Ishtar) that alone fulfills all the identifying characteristics of this Babylon of the future. It will shock you to learn that the founding of this country from the start had its roots in occultic origins. Not to mention the layout of Washington D.C. and the capital-temple of D.C. dedicated to the goddess Ishtar when constructed.
 
   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" (Revelation 17:6).

       America is intoxicated, drunken with the blood of the Saints. And you thought this was a religious nation? Things are going to change. Through martial law and the targeting of the saints through Patriot Acts 1 and 2, tens of thousands, even millions will be killed and become martyrs for the Lord.
 
       Since the 1980s under Operation Rex our government has built internment camps across the country to hold 'resistors of the New World Order." All those it deems, through their massive profiling over the years, who will resist the rule of the NWO. This fulfills Jeremiah's prophecies about the last nation building internment camps and slaughtering millions of its own people.
 
       When disasters start to strike this country and cities start going under martial law, they will implement their plans of eliminating Saints and Patriots who they have profiled and listed as being likely resistors of the New World Order. How did they compile their lists? Church records of members (who are required to give the state lists of all those who tithe to them or give them money). Also various other ways, simply put, they spy on people. They spy on what you read, what websites you visit, what groups you belong to, etc.. They even record your phone conversations and read your emails. Over the years the NSA and FBI have compiled records on just about every person in the United States. And from these records they have compiled extermination lists and have you targeted by your social security number.
 
      Now do you realize the real reason for road blocks? When they want to target those on red lists (immediate extermination) they will set up road blocks to find them. When they stop your car they will run your SSN# to see if you are on the list. There are 3 lists, red, blue and green (some say it's yellow). Those on the red list are to be arrested and taken to an extermination facility  immediately,  no questions asked. Those on the blue list are taken to holding camps where they will be processed for extermination. Those on the green list are considered to be NWO friendly and not a threat.
 
      The Satanic New World Order crowd fully intends on killing up to 60 million Americans to establish their control here in America without the hassles from possible resistors. And they have the facilities and capability to do so. And they did it all with taxpayer money and under the noses of the people.
 
     When it says John wondered at her "with great admiration" it is not that he was impressed, he was flabbergasted! In the literal Greek translation it reads, "I was astonished beyond astonishment." He is disgusted at the ability, scope, and depth to which the saints will be murdered in America.
 
  And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou Marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns" (Revelation 17:7).

      In the previous verse it said the woman sits on the beast. In this one it says the beast carries her. Pretty much it means the same thing. Picture a horse and it's rider.
 
   The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names are not written into the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is" (Revelation 17:8).

       This verse is a verb nightmare. It goes back and forth between the past, present and future. The Beast is going to come out of the bottomless pit, which is the abyss, which is space. An "alien." Those on the earth, who are not Yahweh's, will fall into the deception and lies that this alien speaks and worship him. If  you read my previous book on the False Prophet and NESARA agenda of the Omegans, you will recognize an alien called  Maitreya, St. Germaine, St. Sananda, whatever name he uses that comes as the False Prophet. He will come proclaiming He is Jesus, the Messiah, (or whatever prophet each religion in the world is waiting for to come). He will deceive them all. When the Antichrist comes he will come as "God the Father." The false prophet "Jesus" will decieve the world into worshipping the "Father" Antichrist.
 
   and here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth (Revelation 17:9).

        Ok so we already know this from the previous verse. The seven head of the beast are seven mountains. This one verse is what throws most people off into thinking it is referring to the Vatican. The area of the Vatican is surrounded by 7 hills, not mountains. There are no mountains in Rome, if you were to take the term literal. In this instance, it is symbolic because we are being told that the woman sitting on the beast has authority over the entire world, all 7 continents. Something no previous empire had ever accomplished. Also, the term beast is masculine. It is referring to a person.
 
      The woman rides the beast. Her power is unchallenged. She's in control of this beast. The woman is a nation. What kind of power? In economics, military, and influence. She is a lone super power.
 
   And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come: and when he cometh he must continue a short space.
    And the beast that was, and is not, even he is an eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition (Revelation 17:10-11).
 
       These seven kings represent the 7 empires of the past and the "present" as in relating to John's time, which is approximately 90 A.D. or sometime towards the end of that century. Some put John's book anywhere from 78 to 98 A.D.
 
        The ruling empires of the past were Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, and Greece [modern day Turkey/Ottoman Empire--Ed.]. At John's time, the ruling empire was Rome.
 
       So what is the seventh ruling empire? The beast is from the seventh and becomes the eighth himself. I believe the New World Order is the seventh and the NWO is being dominated and run by America. The beast comes out of the 7th great ruling empire. America is the lone super power today. There is no other empire since ancient Rome that has dominated the earth as America has. Notice the beast is a king. It is the Antichrist that comes from the last great ruling empire on earth, America.
 
    And the ten horns which you sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings for one hour with the beast.
     These shall have one mind, and shall give their power and strength to the beast.
 
     These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them for He is Lord of lords, and King of Kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful (Revelation 17:12-14).
 
     The 10 horns are 10 kings who receive power as kings for a short time with the beast. The Greek word used, "basileis" doesn't always refer to kings in particular, but to leaders. They have no kingdom as of yet. In other words, they are representatives or ambassadors from other countries who become appointed by the beast as those countries "kings."
 
      So what happened to the 10 countries previous kings? It doesn't say. But they are replaced by these new ones. Or, perhaps, since they have no kingdom, they are appointed as an interim leader over a particular area or kingdom as a representative of the beast.
 
       In other words, the beast creates a council of 10 people and each of these people becomes a representative for him over a particular country. Or, as with the UN who has on paper already divided the world up into 10 areas, each king becomes a leader/representative of one of these areas.
 
       The passage says these kings all have one mind and give their power to the beast. This means they are all in agreement with each other and give their power and strength to the beast. They form an alliance. They give him control or full support of their militaries and financial backing.
 
      So we have 10 people, who are awarded control of 10 countries, and then they give that countries military and full support to the Antichrist beast. Doesn't make sense does it? But that is what happens. And what do all these geniuses decide to do? To make war with the Lamb, the true Messiah Jesus Christ, Yahushua ... they proclaim war on the Son of God.
 
    And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues (Revelation 17:15).

      The angel is telling John that the waters where the whore sits contains people of all nations, races and languages immigrants from around the world. America is the only nation in the world ever referred to as the melting pot for exiles and immigrants.
 
    And the ten horns which thou sawest 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. (Revelation 17:16-17).

       Ok, now remember the beast is a person, masculine tense, the whore is a nation. The Beast comes OUT of the nation. He's from the nation itself. He goes and makes a 10 nation alliance, to destroy his own nation.        Remember, the woman (nation) rides the beast. She controls him. He hates her, (the nation) and so burns with her fire. [..snip]
 
      And the woman which thou sawest is that great city which reigneth over the kings of the earth (Revelation 17:18).  It can be a literal city, or the chief city inside of a nation, or the nation itself. In this instance it's back to New York City itself and speaking of the United Nations, which by then, might be in rule over the nations of the earth. It would be referring to Washington D.C. the political capitol of Babylon and the governing center of the New World Order.

In conclusion: 

There is no other city or nation on earth that could fulfill all these requirements other than the United States of America. It's truly amazing that there are over 100 prophecies that only one super power nation in the last days could fulfill and the churches still proclaim that America isn't mentioned in last days prophecies or even in the Bible? Insane.
 
     We are currently in the 'last days' and the lone Super Power is Mystery Babylon is the United States.

Is America 'Mystery Babylon' destined for destruction? **

​In the Bible's Book of Revelation, Chapter 18 it speaks of a city or nation called “Babylon” that - in one hour - is destroyed by fire and plagued with “death, mourning and famine.” Is that nation America?

Many US citizens and others believe that the United States is too great a nation to fail. They erroneously believe there are too many safeguards and now that President Trump is in the saddle - he will keep us safe as he said he would. Really?
  
There are many discussions and disagreements about this topic examining Saudi Arabia as an additional candidate. However, many scriptures in Isaiah, Jeremiah and John show that Saudi Arabia [SA] cannot be 'Mystery Babylon' here are just five verses [there are hundreds]:

1. "How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!" Jeremiah 50:23 [When was SA the 'hammer of the whole earth?']
2. "Babylon would be a home to multitudes of Jews." Jer 50:4-6 [When were multitudes of Jews living in SA?]
3. "O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures." Jer 51:12-14, Rev 17:1 [SA doesn't dwell upon many waters. The sentence "sitteth upon many waters" in Strongs it's #5204 which is figurative for many peoples. America is the melting pot of the world as far as immigration - SA won't even take the Muslim Syrian refugees.]
4. "And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:" Rev 18:11 [When has SA been a great producer and exporter of goods?]
5. "How much she hath glorified herself and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow." Rev 18:7 [SA has never been 'glorified' as a nation; has it? And now our Pres Trump is REALLY harping about how great the USA is.]

There is no other city or nation on earth that could fulfill these requirements other than the United States of America. All of the events currently transpiring are leading up to bigger event that will change the world as we know it.

If you have never surrendered and turned to the Lord Jesus for salvation; do it now. Even so, come Lord Jesus.

These ten kings represent ten nations who have entered into some sort of prior alliance or treaty; perhaps this is NATO or the central core of the EU.  Revelation 17:14 tells us they have decided to go to war against 'the Lamb.'  [We know from numerous scriptural texts that the Lamb is the Lord Jesus Christ.] More ...

Coombes has endeavored to show evidence confirming the theory that the USA is the end time Babylon.

We see birds described as 'hateful' ... birds of prey that are considered symbols of the satanic rebel forces; the choice of words is important. This scripture defines Babylon as 'great' = MEGAS!
