Mystery Babylon

            There lies concealed within the writings of the Revealation of the Apostle

John a mystical entity not understood by either the Christian community or the world at large. It has been designated by the Holy Spirit as Mystery Babylon. The fact that it remains a mystery to almost everyone, and has been erroneously identified by most of those who would claim to have Scriptural knowledge and understanding presents a dilemma for a world that lies in deception. To bring an exhaustive commentary as to its complete identity and function is not possible within the context of this short discourse.   The complete understanding of its workings, motives and goals would require literally years of research and even then because its nature is clandestine and secretive one could only begin to gather up its essence methods, function and motives. The Greek word for mystery is “musteron”. The word means secrecy or silence imposed on initiates into religious rites. (Strong’s Concordance of the Bible).  This gives us our first clue to the essence of the identity of Mystery Babylon. Its inner workings are entirely held in secret by its members and initiates. And so it has been intentionally hidden from view and understanding to anyone and everyone who is not a direct participant. From this point of beginning we can start to comprehend that it is a secret society or more particularly a group of many secret societies networking together in secrecy and sharing the same goals and purposes.

             Going a step further in our exposure we came to the word Babylon.  What could be the manning of Babylon? For that understanding we will need to go to the Bible where Babylon is revealed. It is first brought to the forefront in the Book of Genesis where we see that the populations of the world gathered together in rebellion against the God of creation and erected a tower which reached upward toward heaven.  It was a man-made religious effort expressing first, a rebellion against the true and living God, and secondly to erect an edifice of dominion over the earth. You can gain additional insights by reading the eleventh chapter of Genesis.  God judged it by destroying it and scattering the people abroad and bringing about a confusion of languages so as to break down the ability of various peoples to be completely comingled.  

        We move from there to the Babylonian Empire and their conquest of the world under Nebuchadnezzar (around 586 B. C.) including the peoples of Judah and the city of Jerusalem. The temple and city of the Jews were destroyed and they were carried captive into the occult and esoteric world of the Babylonians. These were the Chaldeans practicing every form of witchcraft, magic, necromancy and occult religion conceivable in the hearts of man and directed by the influence of the leader of all of the powers of darkness.  His name is Lucifer or Satan if you prefer. This was an exercise of judgment by God in allowing the captivity for it was a retribution for the complete violation of His conditional covenant with those ancient people we know as Israel.

            So having  briefly reviewed the derivation of the concept of the mystery and seeing its application to ancient occult Babylon we are able to extrapolate some further truths concerning Mystery Babylon as are revealed in some measure in  the seventeenth and eighteenth chapters of the Revelation. The world is not ruled by diverse and sovereign political entities as is supposed. The world has

been subjected to a cabal of very wealthy,  powerful and evil men who have over time assimilated into a plethora of secret societies who ascribe religiously to the

ceremonies, oaths and practices of ancient Babylon. It is Luciferian inspired and he is the object of worship so that all of the symbolism, secret oaths, and inner workings have a single objective and direction. In a few words that objective and direction are towards a New World Order. A one world government to be ruled from Jerusalem by the Antichrist which has in view the total annihilation of anything that bears testimony to the true and living God and His Son Jesus Christ.

            The vast majority of the world already lies in the captivity and deception of Mystery Babylon controlled by these secret societies and the international banking stronghold of the Rothschild’s banking dynasty that are an integral part of the cabal.  Christianity has been compromised by false and misleading doctrines not based upon the truths revealed in the Holy Scriptures.  False prophets and teachers abound within what the world would refer to as being Christian, but which are various religious denominations and d sects claiming to embrace the truth, but which are  in fact “carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.” (Ephesians 4:13)

            Many additional insights and details into the identity, workings and control of Mystery Babylon over the kings of the earth, along with a complete exposition of Revelation, and other of the prophets in the context of emerging world developments can be found in my recent title: These Prophets and the Revelation, Mindstir Media, 2013, available at Amazon.com and major book suppliers.
