Rev 17:17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto beast, until words of God shall be fulfilled. Rev 17:18 And woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over kings of earth. This last verse indicates that it is Rome. Why? Look at wording; “great city”, which “reigneth” “over kings of earth”. Rome in scripture is always mentioned haveing great power and vast rule.In early Roman Hystory, Pope of Rome ordered Idols of Babylon, to be removed and brought to Rome and be re-dedicated to God. This act was against Scripture. Babylon, that mighty city. Rev 18:1 thru Rev 19:3 are literial and self explainitory. “I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.” “Babylon great is fallen, is fallen” ”the merchants of earth are waxed rich” Rev 18:12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, Rev 18:13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. Rev 18:19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in sea by reason of her costliness= quality possessed by something with a great price or value! for in one hour is she made desolate. The next question most people ask is,”What City is Babylon?” Babylon is not only a city but a religion. If we look close at description of city we can eliminate 99% of all countries of world. There are three destinct intrepretations of what city is. The First is, Babylon Iraq, which still stand, thou in great ruin. The second is Rome with her controll of religion in many nations of Earth. The Third, which I believe is most likely, is New York City. The Tradeing Center of World. New York sea ports, financial institutions, N.Y.S.Exchange, Nasdac, ect. and trade centers. We will get into greator detail on city in our study of Daniel. end section 13.

The Armys of East and The Assyrian. Algeria,Bahrain,Egypt,Syria,Iran,Iraq,Jordan,Kuwait,Lebanon, Libya,Morocco,Oman,Qatar,Saudi Arabia,Tunisia,United Arab Emirates & Yemen. Chapter 15:1 thru 16:21, The seven vials. Rev 15:1 thru Rev 15:8 is self explanitory. These verses are literial. Rev 16:1 thru 16:12 are literial and self explanitory. Rev 16:12 And sixth angel poured out his vial upon great river Euphrates; and water thereof was dried up, that way of kings of east might be prepared. Rev 16:12 is an extremely important verse . This verse is literial but many try to make it out to be a spiritual meaning. We know that this is literial if we look at maps of region and combatents involved. The Euphraties river has allready been damned by The King of Iraq. Rev 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of mouth of dragon, and out of mouth of beast, and out of mouth of false prophet. Frogs;The word is Egyptian; The three unclean spirits like frogs (Rev_16:13) symbolize (1) "proud infidelity", opposing Christ and God, "out of dragon's mouth"; (2) "the spirit of world", whether lawless socialistic democracy or despotism, setting man above God, "out of beast's mouth"; (3) "lying spiritualism", superseding harlot and proceeding "out of false prophet's mouth." Rev 16:14 explaines 16:13. Rev 16:14 For they are spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto kings of earth and of whole world, to gather them to battle of that great day of God Almighty. Rev 16:15 is a warning from Christ. In ,Rev 16:16, “And he gathered them together” “into a place” “called in Hebrew tongue Armageddon.” = The plain of Esdraelon, "the valley of Jehoshaphat", “the valley of Megiddo": There are many that mis-intrepret this verse. They are failing to see key words, which are, 1.Gathered. 2. Into a Place. 3. Armageddon. Please take a little time and look up The plain of Esdraelon, "the valley of Jehoshaphat", & “the valley of Megiddo". Armageddon will be fought around these areas. Rev 16:17 & Rev 16:18 are self explanitory and literial. Rev 16:19 thru Rev 16:21 are literial. Rev 16:19 And great city[Jerusalem] was divided into three parts, and cities of nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her cup of wine of fierceness of his wrath. Rev 16:20 And every island fled away, and mountains were not found. Rev 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of plague of hail; for plague thereof was exceeding great.
