At any event; this will make way for the Mark of the Beast; and either worship of Satan or of God. There will be no more false religious system; or any comfort in materialism. We must remember that it is worshipping the image of the Beast with food being a sidenote that drives people to taking the mark. Death will be for all those not taking it; although a few will survive until the end and into the Millennium period in hiding.
Thankfully; 2 Thess. 2 seems to indicate that the church will be out of here before that. Also we have the verse about the gates of hell not prevailing against the church today ( Matt. 16:18). However; the saints will be overcome according to Daniel in the time of Jacob's trouble ( Rev. 13:7; Daniel 7:21; Jeremiah 30:7).
These prophecies must surely occur; although it is held back to some extent now. Once the lawless one is revealed; things will be exponentially worse than ever before and than it ever will be ( 2 Thess. 2:8; Matt.24:21).
May you be richly blessed as you study His word; particularly Revelation as we are promised that reading that book ( Rev. 1:3).

29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. 32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. 33 I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
These verses signified what happened when Apostles were killed. Any Religious sect Leaders who perverted the church will account to all their lies. From the beginning till end of the Acts of the Apostle, Luke the wrier clearly stated in transitional way who God chosen Apostle after Judas Iscariot. God is so bold that after he died he would not let any man decide the most important decision here on earth. The fallacy of any religious sect is that they could not outsmart God. We are purchased with Jesus Christ blood. Jesus knows who are those who follows men and not God. That makes the division who are the sheep and the goat. We are in perilous times and this warning has been written 2,000 years ago. There is an important reason why Paul, Jesus Christ chosen 12th Apostle, is our Apostle Today for the Jews first then to Gentiles, both Jews and Gentiles can be saved before Jesus comes, as we are warned in 2 Corinthians 6 in its entirety: Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,. Then reiterated in Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and
Stay with prayers and supplication and reading the Bible. A person who truly seek the truth will be guided by the Holy Spirit. Romans 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; Colossians 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Acts 20:28-32
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Revelation 18:4
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Agape.
Take care. Agape.
Amen
I noticed the word sorceries here is Pharmacy. I have no confident with the Pharmaceutical industries. I was sick and healed so quickly by taking all natural supplements. My "Professional"Doctor seems to be frustrated by me taking supplements. Because Certified Doctors are promoting Pharma drugs. Scary. I know for a fact that my Mom died using all drugs from doctors gave her. I witnessed her transformation until the end of her life. Pharma also seems to know how long you will get hooked to drugs until a person ready to be expired. And then Government in cahoots to stop social security pension to the point of death. Wow a great system we have. God judgments will come soon. You wonder why Politician will say something like we will give you transparency and then be silent when they get elected? Hmmmm sounded like Obama promised. We watched and we learned and understood the motives of these liar Politicians. Come soon O Lord Jesus Christ according to your will.
Water too will be involved as the Russians have a deadly ocean weapon called Poseidon, which can create a 160 foot tsunami wave, reaching 1,000 miles inland, covering the land with radioactive ocean water, Revelation 12. Mystery Babylon's inhabitants won't understand why they are being attacked, nor will they know where it comes from. I look forward to it, to get it over with, to kill the evil that is us so we can fulfill our destiny.
c. Which then leads us to Hebrews chapter 4, where many Israelites died having failed to enter into Rest (the Promised Land) because of their unbelief. Then we read that, as God rested on the 7th Day (v4), there must be a future day of rest for His people. Joshua (v8) couldn't give them that rest even though many made it through to Canaan. Even David (coming after Joshua), spoke of God promising another day of rest (for those who've not hardened their hearts as earlier): vv6-8; Psalm 95:7-11. "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God" (v9).
d. So are we talking about a Sabbath Rest here or a Spiritual Rest that would come to those who no longer are wearily trying to justify themselves before God by trusting in the Law to be acceptable? The Rest those in Christ now enjoy have not only crucified the flesh but have their trust & hope in the One Who was crucified for them, to put an end to the Law that only brought death & punishment & never gave Rest."
No we are talking about the Law of God that is for eternity, for all time and stands for all of God's creation to keep. The rest the sabbath offers is all encompassing and is both spiritual and physical and a sign between God's people and Him.
The counterfeit sabbath of satan, SUNday has been the perfect trojan horse to lead people away from obedience to God and at the end of time Revelation 13 tells us satan will use the beast, to enforce a global counterfeit worship system.
God calls His people out of this false system Revelation 18:4 and this includes rejecting the counterfeit sabbath day.
The Great Whore is global governance and City is City of London.
I'm looking for evangelism to come back__when people speak to each other again. Our testimonies of how we came to believe in Jesus, are valuable.
It's sort of like Jonah. He wanted to run away from Gods call on his life. Eventually he complies, and a whole nation repented.
Social media has become too violent. I'm praying for more and more Bible websites like this one, to spring up.
Luke 11:30 - For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to THIS generation.
Five Crowns in Heaven:
The Imperishable Crown
The Crown of Rejoicing
The Crown of Righteousness
The Crown of Glory
The Crown of Life
The difference is, in Stephens day the crowds stoned people with actual stones. In 2022, they stone people with words. I think Jonah wasn't stoned. The story says the whole city (Google history) Repented.
We just have to figure out what 2022 looks like as far as:
In the days of Noah
In the days of Jonah
During the tribulation, when the people of the world see the destruction of Babylon the Great, they will mourn the loss of their source of riches and pleasure ( Revelation 18:9, 15, 19).
I'm not going to disparage on the Catholic Church at large. Not all are the same as the Vatican. I was kind of shocked when the Pope visited Jerusalem and said (on TV), Israel should give over control of the ? Golan Heights to the Palestinians who are occupying it. But the Israelis police it. Lots of Israelis are being shot or injured.
God CUT A COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM and his wife Sarah. Period. Ishmael has no rights to any part of Jerusalem or the land deeded to Abraham, recorded in the Bible. The Israelis want to build Temple #3. Good news is this: once the Temple is built and animal sacrifices for sin, begin again; Jesus will return and get His Church (Christians) off this planet. Watch the Israel news with Erick Stakelbeck and subscribe (on YouTube) so you can keep an eye on the progress.
American news media barely reports on Israel news.
FYI. You might look at all the Palestinian preaching on YouTube about the MAHDI they are looking for. I can't believe I'm banned off youtube and then they allow militant preaching about the Mahdi ?!?

The 6th head of the beast morphed into the 7th head in 476AD when the 11th horn uprooted 3 others (Vandals, Ostrogoths and Heruli) and took control spiritually and used that power to rule all. The beast received a deadly wound in 1517 and set about destroying the Reformation using Gnosticism - humanism as implemented by Clement VII and Loyola. The RC Church became a Gnostic institution and set about making the rest of the world secular and humanistic. By 1730, Michelangelo Tambriorini, General of the Jesuits 1706-1730 "See, sir, from this chamber, I govern, not only to Paris, but to China; not only to China, but to all the world, without any one knowing how I do it". Charles Chiniquy 50 Years in the Church of Rome. Read F Tupper Saussy's book "Rulers of Evil". Only then will you understand why the world is like it is today with the revived 8th head. Of course, nobody wants to hear this, everyone has pet theories about some future Anti-Christ unaware that this theory came from a 1600 book by Jesuit Priest Ribera and picked up by cultists Irving and Darby.
After this I saw another angel descending from heaven with great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory. And he cried out in a mighty voice:
"Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a lair for demons and a haunt for every unclean spirit, every unclean bird, and every detestable beast. All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury."
Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
"Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues. For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Give back to her as she has done to others; pay her back double for what she has done; mix her a double portion in her own cup. As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the same measure of torment and grief.
In her heart she says,
'I sit as queen; I am not a widow and will never see grief.'
Therefore, her plagues will come in one day-death and grief and famine-and she will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."
Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her. In fear of her torment, they will stand at a distance and cry out:
"Woe, woe to the great city, the mighty city of Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come."
God commands that we, God's church (the called out) come out of HER (BABYLON)(the world, carnality, falsehoods, deceptions).
Revelation 18:2 And he (the ANGEL OF THE LORD, Christ, God's messenger of SPIRIT, the HOLY GHOST, THE WORD) cried mightly with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen (though Christ resurrection man is no long in captivity to Babylon (the world, carnality, falsehoods, deceptions), is fallen, and (Babylon)(the World) is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, (falsehoods, deceptions) and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
Revelation 18:4 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, Come out of HER (BABYLON, the world, carnality, falsehoods, deception), my people (God's church, the called out), that ye be not partakers of HER SINS, and that ye receive not of HER PLAQUES (the wages of sin is DEATH).
The gift of God (Christ in you, LIFE and TRUTH in you, the HOLY GHOST in you) is ETERNAL LIFE.
GBU
WE are commanded to come out of BABYLON and live under the LAW OF THE SPIRIT.
Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her (Babylon, the world, carnality) my people (Christ church) that ye be not partakers of her (Babylon, carnality, worldly), and that ye receive not of her plagues.
GBU
Although there is a wide acceptance by christians in US that Babylon is America as i read in comments, over here most christians believe that Babylon represants EITHER the apostat church during the times of antichrist, that is the union of all cosmic churches and/or religions which they accept anything apart from the truth of the Word of God, anything that sounds nice to their ears, and possesses wealth and power and serve the plans of antichrist OR it refers to globalization, the universal political, economic, cultural ...system of the modern world we live in.
And please let me make an observation. If you think America has a faith problem you should come to Europe to see what atheism is really like. America still holds on in faith. Please keep doing the good work fellow christians.

Rev 3
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
The battle is referred to in 4 Biblical scenarios:
1) the king of the north vs the king of the south, Daniel 11:40
2) Esau vs Jacob, Obadiah 1
3) the beast vs Babylon, Revelation 17
4) the 6th trumpet beast army defeats the 5th trumpet US army to dust, Revelation 9
Then, there are scriptures that describe the cataclysmic attack on Babylon's two lands, two houses: Revelation 17 (set up), Joel 2:1-11 (missile description), Isaiah 13, Isaiah 21:1-9, Isaiah 47, Ezekiel 21:1-24, Ezekiel 38:1-17, Jeremiah 50, Jeremiah 51, Revelation 18, Luke 21:20-24 (Israel's fall in same hour Joel 3:1) and Isaiah 24 (aftermath).
Ezekiel 21:12 confirms that the attack is upon God's people. It will be 539 BC all over, again.
