OK, so we know where the basket is going, but where will the stork-women be taking it from? According to many scholars the woman in Zechariah’s basket is the woman from Rev. 17, Rome. At the end of the age, after all its true believers have been whisked away in the Rapture, the religious system currently headquartered in Rome will be returned to Babylon from whence it came, to be absorbed into antichrist’s one world religion. (The End Times Empire will also be absorbed, but into antichrist’s one world government, bringing the world’s political, commercial, and religious power together under one central authority.) Zechariah’s visions followed Babylon’s defeat by the Persians. And almost from his day to ours, Babylon was a forgotten city. Although Alexander the Great later lived and died there, his plan to dredge a big harbor to lure Persian Gulf boat traffic to Babylon was never implemented. After his death a natural harbor was found on the Tigris River and soon became the regional center of commerce Alexander had envisioned. The city that grew up around this harbor was named Baghdad. Although only about 62 miles (100 km) away, Babylon slowly faded into obscurity dwindling to as few as 10,000 inhabitants. It was never again a center for government, commerce, and religion, but neither was it ever destroyed as Revelation 17-18, Isaiah 13-14 and Jeremiah 50-51 all prophesy. These events are still in our future. [/quote] Well said. [/quote] Do I agree with Jack that mystery babylon is literal babylon? No. Why would God call Babylon mystery babylon? Because it is not the physical city Babylon - IMHO.. But I value Jack's work and he methodically gives scriptural evidence for all of his articles. In this one - he disputes the fact that many say New York City is mystery babylon and logically debunks it. He concludes: Babylon Re-born As I indicated earlier, Saddam Hussein spent millions restoring ancient Babylon into a ceremonial city, perhaps unknowingly preparing it for its final role in world events. Since the Lord is committed to doing all that He’s promised (Isaiah 46:8-11), when the time is right the basket symbolizing the world’s wickedness will be set in the place prepared for it on the plains of Shinar. And then the ancient City of Babylon will once again become the world headquarters for the three great evils of mankind’s design: Government which enslaves men politically; Commerce which enslaves us economically; and Religion which enslaves us spiritually. Does the City of New York deserve to be judged? Absolutely, along with the rest of America, and most of the world for that matter. But is New York the Mystery Babylon of Rev. 17-18? I hope this article has persuaded you otherwise. But to be sure, become a Berean and search the Scriptures daily to see whether these things be true. (Acts 17:11) 05-16-04 [/quote] Some people say the woman in the basket is returning to it's origins - the tower of babel. From Christianbiblereference: In ancient times, people thought the heavens were not far above the earth. If only they could build a tower to the sky, they could climb up and be like gods themselves. Mankind had once again lost sight of God and become arrogant and self-sufficient. God, of course, saw this as pure arrogance. He put an end to the people's delusions of being powerful and important like gods. We may be tempted to think we no longer need to trust and obey God. We may believe our learning, sophistication and technology are all we need to be self-sufficient and guarantee our security. The lesson of the Tower of Babel is that such self-sufficiency is a delusion. History has shown that many nations and their leaders have fallen into the trap of arrogance and self sufficiency. Like Babel, those nations have eventually ended up in ruins. [/quote] Shinar is where rebellion started and it could very well be where it ends: An astounding event at the Tower of Babel over 4,000 years ago made language translation necessary today. The History Book of the Universe records a remarkable series of events. Noah’s family disembarked from the Ark after the Great Flood (Genesis 6:1-9:19) around 2500 BC. God clearly instructed Noah and his sons to “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.” (Genesis 9:1,7) Did Noah’s descendants listen to God? No, the clan settled on the plain of Shinar. They made no attempt to spread out and fill the earth. On the contrary, they stuck together to build a Tower, defying God’s order to re-populate the earth. Yahweh therefore confused the language of the Tower builders to force them to scatter across the face of the earth (Genesis 11:1-9). https://biblescienceguy.wordpress.com/2013/03/13/2-tower-of-babel-where/ ------ It's interesting that many nations are gathering in the middle east under the pretext of taking out ISIS. Could this be the world's wickedness returning that the basket represents?? There are 2 young Jewish boys who had visions about this saying - these nations unite and attack Israel: https://jewishandchristiannews.wordpress.com/2015/11/06/gog-magog-war-a-clinical-death-revelation-of-a-secular-jewish/ [/quote] Another thing that I've entertained, and of course I'm only speculating is: We see Islam's tentacles now spreading throughout Europe and the USA. I've never believed Islam was mystery babylon; but at this point have to consider it very well might be - albeit, with reservations. Mystery Babylon is destroyed by the antichrist before the New World order can become a reality. It's obvious - because she now controls the beast. The gog magog war stage is being set - and at it's conclusion God will pretty much decimate muslims i.e. Islam.... [/quote] Obviously, every generation has interpreted Revelation (Chapter 17-Mystery Babylon) from geo political conditions that existed at their time. In reality most of these interpretations can be proven to have short comings. Today, I think we are in a better position to see how mystery babylon fits in our world. And "new" hypothesis laid out that match the geo politcal situation of our time :) I do sincerely believe we are uncomfortably close to this prophecy being fulfilled I really mean "uncomfortably" close, because if it happens in our life time, it will mean a complete collapse of the monetary system as we know it worldwide. However, before I delve into any more supposition, I want to go over the relevant passages in Revelation and Daniel. [/quote] It will be the destruction of mystery babylon that causes a worldwide economic collapse ----- It's the antichrist that is responsible for the downfall of the woman on the beast (mystery babylon). These relevant verses in Daniel 7 thru 12 deal with the rise of the antichrist (AC). The 11th or little horn in this verse is the AC: 7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a [b][color=red]fourth[/color][/b] beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.: 8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them [b]another little horn[/b], before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things. [/quote] In the above passages God is transitioning 10 toes of a statue in Daniel 2 to 10 horns of a beast in Daniel 7. The 10 Toes of Daniel 2 represented the last kingdom on this earth, as does the Beast in Daniel 7. This is the same beast we will see in Revelation 13. This [b][color=red]Fourth[/color][/b] beast according to Daniel 7 verse 23 ...shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. We see the entire earth today being devoured via the internet with Terrorism & Political Correctness as a means to control everyone.... [/quote] It is clear that the fourth beast is still in power when Jesus comes, because “little horn” on that beast, “made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.” (Daniel 7:21-22) Daniel 7 23 Thus he said, The [b][color=red]fourth beast[/color][/b] shall be the [b][color=red]fourth kingdom upon earth[/color][/b], which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. 25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. 26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. 27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. [/quote] I believe we have come full circle and answered the question that kingdom are we referring to in Item 1 - Dan 8:23 23 And in the latter time of their kingdom. It is a single kingdom - a shared domain by the 10 kings. The last kingdom on earth ruled by the beast... [/quote] But the question remains - how do we know the antichrist destroys mystery babylon? [/quote] The 7th kingdom is the global world order (satan's kingdom) - the one the central banks own right now. An article (among many) that covers why I feel this way is here: hangthebankers.com/goldman-sachs-takes-over-america-and-now-europe/ The woman sits on this 7th kingdom (head) and all the ones before it. The eighth kingdom will be the NWO and she will no longer controls world affairs. We can assume once she is destroyed - the AC no longer has any use for the 10 kings. So we see she stands in the beast/AC way of world dominance. Rev 17 Tells us how he destroys her and we know the why: 16 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. 17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. 18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. I've already discussed mystery babylon (woman on the beast) from this page - almost 1/2 way down: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message2657702/pg12 to this page: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message2657702/pg13 You can continue reading about her from this post on: Walid most certainly is a persuasive power speaker, and I love listening to him. He runs circles around me in history of arabia or any middle eastern countries. However, I have doubts based on these 4 characteristics of mystery babylon. 1 - she is not a part of the beast the way the 10 kings are and the AC is inititally - she's completely independent. 2 - she represents a huge burden (sits on) on these 7 empires in the form of: 0% interest rates - robbing savers of income QE - transfer of wealth from poor/middle class to wealthy Derivatives, austerity, inflation etc 3 - she controls the 7 mountains (ancient empires) from a city that can be seen by merchants on the ocean/sea (some body of water) 4 - all financial transactions will cease once she is destroyed. [/quote] Next in Dan 8:23 - the first item in list we are focusing on is who are the transgressors: when the [b]transgressors[/b] are come to the full They most likely are the Israelis, as I mentioned. Here is a verse in Ezekiel 39 (aftermath gog magog war) supports that: 26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid. 27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations.... ---- This person believes the Jewish collective soul is awakening to the true spirit of the Lord: https://jewishandchristiannews.wordpress.com/2015/11/06/gog-magog-war-a-clinical-death-revelation-of-a-secular-jewish/ The awakening of the Yehudi soul ([b]Jewish collective soul[/b]) into a higher state of human consciousness is alive and well, and is rapidly enveloping the whole world. That the G-d of Israel can transform a young secular Israeli into shofar of warning that the redemption and reclamation of the “sparks” of the Jewish souls is at hand only portends that a greater awakening of the lost “Israeli souls” from the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel is about to explode around the world. [/quote] If we look at the last post or 2 we can come to a pretty amazing conclusion. The antichrist will not be revealed until after the gog magog war. Dan 8:23 And in the [b]latter time[/b] of their kingdom, when the [b]transgressors are come to the full[/b], [b]a king of fierce countenance[/b], and understanding dark sentences, [b]shall stand up[/b]. --- In the latter time of the 10 kings Kingdom. after the Israelis give God glory - the antichrist will stand up.... [/quote] He will have a fierce countenance - and be more stout than his peers according to Daniel ---- This person will be a very imposing, intimidating individuals in whose presents many will probably be petrified. [/quote] The last part of Daniel 8:23 - and he shall speak dark sentences. Checking others opinions of what dark sentences mean I get: To understand riddles To understand the occult To understand parables or puzzles The author tells us this person is a genius. I'm guessing understanding dark sentences is a testimony to the fact that satan control him, and he has been endowed with many powers from satan, which probably includes intellectual prowess. So yes, he could be a genius. [/quote]

Events are moving so quickly in bible prophecy that I decided to do an update of:
Thread: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost completed at present
The bible tells us end times will start slowly and accelerate (like birth pangs) - that's what's happening today with disease, worldwide economic collapse, war, disasters, fukushima.
These are some end time events listed in bible that are true today:
Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, disease and famine in diverse places. Mathew 24 and 1-4 seals of Revelation 6.
We have a global economy; the gov't can track everyone and the mark of the beast is ready.
The image of the beast that will move and speak can be transmitted to everyone's home.Rev. 13:14-15 - ALL on this earth will worship the image of the beast....
Political correctness has gone completely insane - people get fired for smallest infraction,
or utterance. Bible refers to this as many will be offended (Mathew 24:10)
Evil and perversity rules - especially on the internet. (Mathew 24:12)
There is a RISE IN SPIRITUALISM doctrines of the devils.1 Timothy 4:1 ...'Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.'
Jesus said we would see earthquakes in diverse places(Mathew 24:7) . Why would Jesus say this or why should we even care? Because the generation that SEEs earthquakes in diverse places is the generation that will see all prophecy fulfilled.
We ARE the only generation to ever have this capability.
How can we SEE earthquakes in diverse places? Well, here's an example:
[

]
He also says we will see nation rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom. Once again - we are the only generation to ever have this capability with live streaming.
How do I know it is literally SEEing.
Because Jesus in Luke 21 and in Mathew 24 tell us.
Luke 21 - To paraphrase Jesus in parable of the fig tree where he says - "when you see the trees sprout buds you know summer is near. LIKEWISE (same thing applies here) - when you SEE ALL these things.... i.e. earthquakes in diverse place; nation against nation...THIS is the generation will see all prophecies fulfilled".
See more here:
Thread: Prophecies Jesus gave in Mathew 24 and Revevelation require internet and smartphone
Major events leading to fulfilled prophecy are happening in the middle east. 2 young jewish boys were given visions and dreams concerning these major events; both confirming we are essentially witnessing the Gog Magog war of Ezekiel 38, in the middle east today.

If the gog magog war hasn't started - the seeds are definitely germinating.....
God tells us we will have the capability to SEE the judgment he's pouring out on Israels enemies in this war.
Well, daily we are presented with videos and pictures of complete and utter destruction of Arab nations...Most notably Damascus - where the bible says will lie in a ruiness heap. Isa 17.
We're also witnessing the rise of the medes(ISIS) in Syria and Iraq. Isaiah 13 says "I will raise up the medes to destroy a wicked world."
ISIS is spreading it's fear and terror throughout the nations of the world.
I posted about that here:
Thread: All prophecies the bible says will happen in End Times are happening or almost completed at present (Page 41)
- about 1/2 way down the page I start with the alternative interpretation Of Isaiah 13; which describes the "day of the Lord"......or end times....
Isaiah 13:6 Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity
In Isaiah 24 we get the earth will reel to and fro, like a drunkard.
If you are keeping track of earthquakes - that's exactly what it looks to be doing.
Eventually, we will actually feel it rocking back and forth.
---------
Remember these are only "end times" prophecies and must all be true at same time.
Next, the list of completed end time prophecies fulfilled at present from last "All Prophecies" thread: Will add to it as more are considered fulfilled.....
