COME OUT OF HER
-Revelation 18:4 states, … And I heard another voice from heaven saying, Come out of her, MY PEOPLE, that you be
not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues … Revelation 17:5 states, … And upon her forehead
was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH …
According to Dr. E. W. Bullinger:
-"Babylon, which means CONFUSION, is the fountain-head of all idolatry and systems of false worship. This is the mystery
of iniquity ( 2nd Thessalonians 2:7 ) seen in all the great religions of the world. All alike substitute another
god for the God of the Bible; a god made either with hands or with the imagination, but equally made; a religion constituting
of human merit and endeavor." ( Dr. E. W. Bullinger )
-So as we can see, Babylon is the confusion of man-made religion of any kind, including the governmental and economic systems
of man as well. Babylon is that spirit of confusion in man that permeates his mind, producing false and idolatrous ideas about
God. This is BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH! IT IS CONFUSION! Those who are captivated
by her ( Babylon ) are wooed into an idolatrous relationship, in which they do fornicate with a false god, or false ideas
of the true God. In essence, it is the religious, governmental, and economic ideas of MAN. IT IS THAT WHICH MAN PRODUCES,
WHICH DOES COME OUT OF HIS BEAST NATURE, AND IS THE VERY SPIRIT OF ANTI-CHRIST ( that which is against or instead of Christ
)!
-The good news is that there is another city that is spoken of in the book of Revelation. This city is the city of God.
It is JERUSALEM! This city represents the true God, along with HIS GOVERNMENT, AND HIS TRUE PLAN OF ECONOMICS FOR THE HUMAN
RACE. This government is now available to the sons of God through faith in Jesus Christ. IT IS THE GOVERNMENT OF GOD! It is
that government which is currently being set up in the body of Christ, and will continue into the ages to come, until the
creation is set free. The question is … How much of the creation will be set free? If we are to truly believe what the
Bible teaches, then we must admit that the government of God, which is to be manifested through the sons of God, will result
in the deliverance of the entire creation ( EVERY PERSON WHO HAS EVER LIVED, OR WILL LIVE )!
-Notice who is told to come out of Babylon in Revelation 18:4. IT IS GOD’S PEOPLE!
-WHAT?-
-YES … God’s people are presently in confusion. They are confused about the purpose and plan of God. Many do
not yet understand the hope of their calling, which is: TO JUDGE THE WORLD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND TO SET THE CREATION FREE!
O CHILD OF GOD … COME OUT OF HER ( BABYLON, CONFUSION )! BE SET FREE, TO SET THE CREATION FREE! Free from what? FREE
FROM CONFUSION ABOUT OUR GOD!!! We must learn that our Father is LOVE! He is a love that NEVER FAILS! God wants to give you:
1. POWER
2. LOVE
3. A SOUND MIND
-Babylon is:
1. WEAKNESS
2. HATE
3. CONFUSION
-COME OUT OF HER, GOD’S PEOPLE!-
