First of all, the US is not a "Great City." If it were the US, would it not say great country? The US does not sit on 7 hills. Revelation Chapter 17 spells out who this mystery Babylon is and it is not the US. The description given fits no one else but the great city of Rome, the woman who was drunk with the blood of the martyrs and the saints (Rome under the Papacy). It was not the US slaughtering Christians during the inquisitions. Plus the fact that Babylon was used as a code name for Rome. In 1 Peter 5:13, Peter in closing his letter says, the church that is in Babylon salutes you. You have to keep in mind that the church did not exist during the time of ancient Babylon. But Peter says the church that is in Babylon salutes you. Why would he say that if there was no church in Babylon? It's because Babylon was a cryptic word for the church in Rome where he wrote the letter from, so if the letter got intercepted, the believers in Rome would not be severely punished.
Studying through Revelation Chapter 17, it is much easier to see that it is referring to Rome than it is the US.
Today's Age Of GRACE has to be Terminated By God "Recalling all His ambassadors" The Body Of Christ, In Great GRACE Departure 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 1 Corinthians 15:51-57, BEFORE

God's 'Simple' Will: Link
but notsexually impregnate. now God who is spirit created the sperm in mary to conceive our saviour that's because
God can Create because to create is to do or bring something into existence from nothing. In Genesis God
spoke into being creation by His Word.
then you have commandments ,statutes, laws, judgements,testimony, and so forth.
In Matthew 24:29 who is Jesus quoting?
I appreciate your candid honesty; my associates would've answered that question in defense of America, with glowing patriotic stories of our might. Some answer falsely because of reprisals.
America, the counterfeiter, tried to act the beast in Daniel 7:20, when they took three of their own towers on 9/11. "His look" was more stout above his 10 kingdoms is Russia, the beast, king of the north, Esau, having 11 time zones of stout. 1991's USSR deadly wound that became the mighty Russian Federation, Revelation 13:3
So, after the 9-11 attacks, General Wesley Clark announced this to the world: Global Warfare:"We're going to take out seven countries in five years: Iraq Syria Lebanon Libya Somalia Sudan and Iran."
So after three NY towers were taken, the US announced it would topple seven countries (7 + 3 towers = 10) in five years, Revelation 9:10. This action occurs all within the fifth trumpet. The US is diabolical and uses the occult to make their every political move, they look in the liver, Ezekiel 21:21
Watch for the sixth seal to start peeling off when America attacks Iran's nuclear facility ( Revelation 6:14). Then we'll be on short time for what God's chosen northern army, Joel 2:11, has in its advanced arsenal. 13 months, 25 hours of coordination and preparation for our visitation.
It looks like T. Levis already shared scriptures about it.
The concept of 3 in 1 is challenging as we as humans lack examples in our world that is similar to that. I believe we have a hard time comprehending anything not in our earthly experience. But we trust what God's word says. Since it says "these three are one" in 1 John 5:7-8 we trust what it says. Some people nitpick and question "but HOW 'one' are they?" and some argue that they are more separate than one, or vice versa. I think as soon as people start reinterpreting the Bible to fit what they want to believe, they are being deceived and are deceiving others. It takes faith and trust to believe the Bible, so in 1 John 1:1 where it says the "Word was God" there is no question what that means, because in verse 14 it says the Word was Jesus. Jesus = God. But same with Father = God, and Holy Spirit = God. 3 are one. God the Father is most commonly referred to as 'God' and I believe this is part of the source of confusion, as well as Jesus is called 'Lord' and Lord also meaning God. Sometimes God is plural, like 'we' in Genesis 1:26.
To what extent are they 'one' and to what extent are they 'three'- we don't know that. It could be like 3 personalities of 1, or it could be like an orange where you have the skin, pulp, and seeds, but each is still an orange. I don't know the right analogy, but I trust what God says in the Bible to be true and do not trust humans who try to twist it into something else.
God bless...
That notion of the US being the beast is preposterous. Do you see how the US behaves how it treats its allies and enemies how it destroys the earth and people that live in it. Don't fool yourself America is that great city that whore that sits on many waters. Russia is the beast that destroys America within one hour.
Sorry if I offended you by stating what I believe, If a comment comes across you and you don't agree, That Doesn't mean I'm trying to start a argument.
I'm a little confused because I don't recall replying to you, Please Correct me if I'm wrong.
When I comment on something or reply to something whether it's right or wrong it's me being honest. Should I lie so I want offend ?
Compromising doesn't put people in Harmony. The Spirit of truth does.
The word will Harmonize some and it will divide some. I'm hopeful it will Harmonize, But I don't pretend to believe something for the sake of it.
It's not a contest with me, It's wanting to learn, Wanting to grow, and wanting to share, And always open for furtherance.
God bless.
Yes, God has provided all that we need for us in this life and for the life to come!
Before the 1950's scientists theorized that the universe always existed, but in the 50's and 60's scientific thought changed to state that that the universe began wit a big bang from an outside cause. This aligns with Scripture in that God is the external, eternal cause of the creation of the universe. If he started the universe with a huge of energy (power) that created such intense heat that the new matter He created was vapor, then it is likely it would have taken billions of years for these particles to cool and for gravity to pull matter into solid masses of planets, stars, etc. We really do not know how exactly God had things form in our universe after he created matter, energy, and natural forces and laws. The cooled matter that formed the earth and the water that covered it in Genesis 1:2 may be a result of these processes.
Believers and the church fought against Pythagorus when he proposed that the earth was round, not flat. They also fought against Copernicus when he proposed that the earth rotated on its axis, instead of the heavens rotating around the earth. They fought against Galileo when he proposed that the earth orbited the sun instead of the sun orbiting the earth.
It will be interesting to see what God allows science to discover before the end of this age. If God is guiding history, he is also guiding science. This does not mean tat science is always correct, but that God can enable scientist to learn more about how He caused things to happen. God did not write everything down in the Bible. This does not mean that we should not pursue ways to discover scientific information. God has put the ability and the curiosity to investigate this things into mankind. This is how we progressed to the present day in civilization and scientific knowledge.
There will still remain a vast amount of knowledge we will never know. But God will allow us to discover some of it

Hopefully these are helpful
Sorry for my omissions in my last post. I meant to say that all died in the flood except for Noah and his family. If, and I mean if, there was a race created beside Adam and Eve, they did not survive the flood. Only Adam's lineage through Seth survived the flood, as God planned from the start of all things. So, whatever one's interpretation is the creation account of man in Genesis 1 and 2,God's ultimate plan was to set apart a people for Himself out of all the peoples of the earth
In the eyes of God a day is a 1000 yrs. Thus the sabbath is a 1000 yrs under the new covenant. When Jesus will reign on this earth. Behold the Kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdom of our Lord and his Christ. REV. 11: 15 aND HIS KiNGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING kINGDOM.

Hopefully these are helpful in your study for truth & understanding.
Interestingly, the first verse in Genesis 6 discusses an birth explosion: And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
The second verse then mentions the sons of God. That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. This seems to support the idea that evil spirits took on natural attributes.
Just because they are called sons of God does not make them good. Jesus, Son of God was good. Satan, also a son of God, was evil.
A final note. The sons of God mentioned in the OT are different from the sons of God in the NT. In the NT, we are the sons and children of God. We, natural men, have received the Holy Ghost. Romans 9:14 - For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Here, Paul is talking about us, as natural men. This notion is support later in Romans 8:16 - The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
Thank you & GOD's blessings on you too.
1 Peter 4:7 starts out by saying, "But the end of all things is at hand:"
That little term "is at hand" is called a Perfect Tense, meaning has drawn near. The end is already in process of ending. That was back in Paul and Peter's day. It's even more so today.
But he says this is the basis of everything. You're suffering in the flesh. People are slandering you. You're supposed to be judged in the flesh. God wants you to be judged in the flesh, and God wants you to suffer in the flesh, because then you won't sin.
But in the Spirit, you're going to live for God. But the end of all things is at hand. So that's kind of like "Well, it will be all over soon. We'll just go through our short time where we have to suffer here on the earth!"
And then it says be ye therefore sober. This has to do with sober mindedness. I like that little term. It doesn't mean sober like without alcohol. It means to be sober minded.
Did you know that you might not be a drinker, but you can become drunk with the thoughts of the world? It's anything that takes over and influences our thought processes.
He says think soberly, and watch unto prayer. Those are commands. Peter is saying that we must keep a continuous open communication with Christ in all things. If we lose that communication, we'll be taken over by our hardships in life.
As we get further and further into the last days, and as things get worse and worse on the earth, I have to keep that line open. So the end is almost here. Because as I talk to Him, and I'm asking for His intervention, asking for His help, and asking for His will to be done, when I'm asking for His will to be done, I'm submitting to His will.
And if I have confidence that He's answering according to His will, then I have the request. That's the answer. Whatever it is, is the answer. So I am to be sober, that is, be sober minded. And watch unto prayer.
1. God, 2. Jesus Christ and 3. the Holy Spirit....Thank-You
I endeavour to share what I understand if its agreed to fine if not fine again because it is a commentary.
Personally I believe and do what works not saying what someone's is doing doesn't because God will
work in an individual where there at in there believing walk. I've had people tell me you can't do this or that
when by Gods Grace i've already done it. I learned not to be a cookie cutter believer mentally because
that shuts off what God could be telling me what to do Spiritually. I have not found two believers on this
commentary site that agree on everything but prayer fully we glean that which is profitable.
That being said I wish I were the man I know to be. God Bless brother
On US- Russia relations. its correct to put Russia and US in your interpretation of this prophetic scripture, but its important to note representation is quite challenging in the bible. This two countries- for example Russia is referred to as Gog and Magog,Genesis-10-3 "And the sons...and Togarmah."Ezek38:6 talks about Gog and Magog. the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, north of Israel in this case. America on the other hand its represented by the beast with two horns and its symbolized as a lamb. this beast came out of waters but this one it out of earth. and it has two horns only which are the two parties in America, the republican and democrat ever since. why lamb like? America stands for liberty and justice. "fire from heaven?" don't forget Benjamin Franklin with his kites, "He doeth wonders"? well lets talk of tech and science,US is at the center.
About a woman in bible, well who is the bride and who is the bridegroom, Rev-12-1 mentions a woman about to give birth and Rev-12:13 says the woman after birth she was persecuted by the dragon. note REV 13: 11 the beast US,SPAKE LIKE DRAGON(serpent or Satan) and exercised the all the power of the first beast. AND the dragon gave power to the beast REV 13:1,2 , the beast had ten horns and 7 heads which is the last kingdom as we know its ROME and the beast spake blasphemy by the little horn(papacy) which persecuted those who didn't accept her doctrines . since 538A.D after the little horn took down the last 3 kingdom the Astrogoths,vandals, and Herulis to 1798 Rev 12:6 "And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days." read Dan7:25 same beast persecuting saints for 1260dy/yrs(538AD-1798) . woman sitting on the beast is a universal church she has made nations drunk with doctrines. see her power in COP26 &Sunday law. malach 3:6 GOD changes not.
