Babylon and The Tower of Babel


The pervert stripes


 

6:00-6:47 is very important, but watch the whole Christian video because in the video the Christian will being discussing recent signs of the end of times.

 

When Satan comes on the 6th vial, he will gather all of the nonelects to worship him.  This is similar to the real life story of Nimrod and the tower of Babel, where they are all gathered. 

 

 

Genesis 11:1-9

King James Version (KJV)

 

11 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

 

2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

 

3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

 

4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

 

5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

 

6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

 

7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

 

8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

 

9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

The bottom link is very important because it has a lot of end of times prophecies from Satan being released to Great White Throne Judgment.  Since it is very important, make a copy of it on Microsoft Word and save it on your computer.  Then read the bottom link very slowly in order to absorb, understand it and mediate on it.




 


 

1/3-2/3 is a sermon on the real life story of Nimrod and the tower of Babel.

2/3-3/3 is on the following

 

Matthew 10:34-36

King James Version (KJV)

 

34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

 

35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

 

36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

 

 

Matthew 7:21-27

King James Version (KJV)

 

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

 

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

 

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

 

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

 

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

 

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

 

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

 

Matthew 21:31-32

King James Version (KJV)

 

31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

 

In verse 31, “publicans and the harlots” are God’s elects.

 

32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

 

In verse 32, nonelects didn’t repent of their sins even though they saw some of God’s elects repenting (It’s impossible for nonelects to repent because God is not saving their souls from sin and Hell, God is giving what they deserve which is Hell because they have sinned).

In verse 32, “publicans and the harlots believed him” believe in Jesus as their Savoir (God causes God’s elects to repent and believe in Jesus as their Savoir, all the credit and glory goes to God).

Don’t be saying that it’s unfair.  If Jesus Christ didn’t die on the cross and endure Hell=everlasting fire for anybody, God would still be just in sending us all to Hell which is what we all deserve because we have all sinned.  So we all deserve Hell, but God in his mercy was willing to save some people for his glory, not for their sakes but for God’s holy name (Ezekiel 36:22, Isaiah 43:25, Ezekiel 36:21-32).  In addition, God does not owe anybody anything (Read the entire chapter of Romans 9). 

 

Matthew 21:23 “chief priests and the elders of the people” and Matthew 21:45 “Pharisees” are nonelects that are self-righteous (Luke 18:9-14) and have never needed God’s help.

 

Hebrews 4:8-11

King James Version (KJV)

 

8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

 

9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

 

In verse 9, “rest” is Heaven where God’s elects are seeking.

 

10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

 

Verse 10, talks about after Great White Throne Judgment where there is a new heaven and new earth and all of God’s elects and God finally rest from their spiritual works.

 

11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

 

 

Hebrews 11:9-10

King James Version (KJV)

 

9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:

 

10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

A Study of Revelation 6:2



 

A Study of Revelation 6:2

 

 

Revelation 6:2

And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

 

Many [so called] theologians and commentary writers identify the rider of the white horse as the Antichrist. That’s a most unfortunate mistake. Nowhere in the Bible is the color white associated with Satan or the Antichrist. White has to do with that which is pure, that which is holy.

 

Describing Christ, for instance, John writes in Revelation 1:14, “His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow.”

 

In Revelation 3, God told the church of Sardis in verse 5, “He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life.”

 

In Revelation 19, in fact, where God talks about Christ coming in the clouds of glory to judge the world, verse 11 states that He is sitting upon a white horse.

 

Remember, the Lamb that was slain for our sins is opening the seals, and is telling us to come and see the salvation plan that He has provided for us. The first and foremost figure in that plan, therefore, should be Christ. Indeed, many Scriptures confirm that.

 

In Hebrews 1:8, we read: “But unto the Son he saith, ‘Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.’”

 

That passage is quoting verses 6 and 7 of Psalm 45. So, we know at least that portion of Psalm 45 is messianic.

 

Now, notice verses 3 to 5 of that psalm: “Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.” (Psalm 45:3-5)

 

It is prophesying here that Christ, the King, would be riding prosperously, or victoriously, with a sword girded at His side. The sword, of course, is the Word of God. His arrows would penetrate the heart of His enemies and the people would fall under Him.

 

Can you see how closely Revelation 6:2 parallels this passage?

 

The rider of the white horse has a bow; and a bow is that which arrows are shot from. He has a crown, which means that He is the majestic king. And He went forth conquering, and to conquer; He rides prosperously with His arrows sharp in the heart of His enemies and the people falling under Him.

 

Yes, the Lord Jesus Christ is the one riding prosperously on the white horse. With a bow in hand, He is going forth to build His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

The Two Beasts of Revelation 13





The Two Beasts of Revelation 13

 

What is the difference between them?

 

What do they signify?

 

What does the number 666 represent that is found in the last verse of the chapter?

 

The first beast comes out of the sea. It has ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns or diadems upon its horns, and a blasphemous name upon its head. And it “was like a leopard, its feet were like a bear’s, and its mouth was like a lion’s mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority.” Now this is our first clue, that really teaches who this first beast is. “The dragon gave to it his power and his throne and great authority.”

 

The dragon is Satan. Again and again in the Bible God speaks about the dragon as Satan, or Satan as the dragon. And the beast therefore would be the kingdom of Satan, totally synonymous with Satan himself. But it is the kingdom of Satan as it is found in the world throughout time. The seven heads refer to the rule of Satan throughout time.

 

In Revelation 17 we find another reference to this beast, and we find in verse 8: “The beast that you saw was and is not, and is to ascend from the bottomless pit and go to perdition.”

 

It says that “the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated. They are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen. One is and the other is not yet come. And when he comes, he must remain only a little while.”

 

Therefore, it’s speaking already in the past tense of seven of the heads, five of the seven heads representing kings who had already reigned. Now this simply is indicating that it is going all the way back into time, wherever the kingdom of Satan has been. It is the rule of Satan as it is found in the earth.

 

The ten horns more particularly relate to the rule of Satan right at the end of time, and tie very closely, incidentally, into the second beast, or in some respects to the second beast, as I’ll show in a moment. But the ten horns do refer to the rule of Satan at the end of time because again, when we read Revelation 17, it says in verse 12, “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”

 

The interesting thing is that in the Book of Daniel God makes reference to ten horns, out of which the little horn comes. And when we look at the Book of Daniel carefully, we find that in this reference to the ten horns and the little horn, it is really speaking about the false prophets, or it’s talking about the church itself. The fourth beast spoken of in Daniel seven has ten horns:

 

Daniel 7:8

“I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, 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.”

 

“Eyes like the eyes of a man” is a figure of speech speaking about prophets. If we tie that back into Isaiah 29:10, we can see this.

 

Isaiah 29:10

For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.

 

The beast, therefore is the kingdom of Satan that rules throughout time, although particularly the period that’s in view here is the whole New Testament period, the forty-two months of Chapter 5. And in verse 3 it says that one of its heads seems to have had a mortal wound, indicating that at the cross Satan was dealt a death blow. The kingdom of Satan was dealt a death blow because of Christ’s victory on the cross.

 

But yet, “his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.” (Revelation 13:3)

 

The kingdom of Satan still goes on, even though the destruction of Satan and all the wicked was guaranteed because of Christ’s work at the cross. Yet the kingdom goes on.

 

Then in verse 4 it says, “and they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”

 

This beast is what unsaved man is totally involved in. Any unsaved man is a worshipper of the beast, a worshipper of the kingdom of Satan, a worshipper ultimately of Satan himself.

 

In verse seven it says that this beast was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer/overcome them. And this of course is pointing to the end of time, just before Christ returns, when Satan will be able to silence the Gospel.

 

Beginning in verse 11 it speaks about a second beast coming out of the earth, that had “two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.” Now the minute it says that it spoke like a dragon, we know that again it is totally related to Satan.

 

This beast is Satan in his religious rule, particularly, as he works through false prophets and false christs. “Two horns like a lamb.” You see, he appears like Christ Himself. Christ is the Lamb that was slain. Remember, in 2 Corinthians 11 it speaks about Satan going about as an angel of light. Well, that’s another figure that is tied in with this other beast that rose up out of the earth. The phrase “out of the sea” or “out of the earth” is a figure relating to hell itself. Hell is sometimes spoken of as the heart of the earth, or the heart of the seas.

 

Revelation 13:12

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

 

Revelation 13:13

And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

 

Revelation 13:14

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

 

Revelation 13:15

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

 

Now you see, Satan, as he controls the minds of unsaved men, normally does not show himself to be of any life, or the giver of any life, or of having any life characteristics. A political kingdom ultimately is a fairly dead kind of a kingdom. It exists, and then it doesn’t exist. It has no supernatural power.

 

But when Satan comes through his emissaries, false prophets and false christs, who come with signs and wonders, as predicted in Matthew 24:24, as he comes through occult activity of one kind or another, this makes the worship of Satan far more glorious and marvelous. Now of course those who are worshipping him don’t understand that they’re worshipping him. They are deceived, because Satan is the great deceiver. But nevertheless, ultimately they are worshipping him.

 

And they give breath to the image of the beast. They make the worship of the kingdom of Satan a live venture, as if through this there is a vital, energetic eternal relationship with the god that they are worshipping failing to realize that their god is Satan, and that he is doomed to eternal damnation.

 

Those who worship the beast are spoken of in verse 18 as having a number, the number of man. In your King James Bible you’ll find that it says, “It is the number of a man.” But the word that is used here, the Greek word, is the identical word that is used in the Bible repeatedly where it speaks of Christ being the Son of Man. Now under no circumstance would that be translated the “Son of a Man,” because Christ under no circumstance was the Son of a man. He was the Son of Man. He was of mankind. In other words, He was a human being.

 

And here also the same word is used, so it would have to mean that it is the number of man, the number of mankind, the number of the human race. In other words, anyone at all who is unsaved symbolically has the number 666 on his forehead. It is the number assigned to an unsaved man, who is destined for hell, because he is a slave of Satan.

 

This number originally had its beginning in Zechariah 13, or at least it’s referred to there, where it says in verse 8: “Two-thirds I will cut off and destroy, but one-third” And it goes on to speak about the redemption of the one-third. The number two-thirds, if written as a decimal, is .666666. And if we just use the first 3 numbers, we get 666.

 

And there are at least two illustrations in the Bible where this is put forth. We read about David, when he defeated the Moabites, that he caused them to lie down in three lines. Two of the lines he put to death. One line he spared, and they served him. David there was a type of Christ as Messiah, the two-thirds a figure of those who are under the judgment of God, the one-third a figure of those who are saved.

 

In 2nd Kings chapter 1 we read of Elijah, that he was sent for by the wicked king of Israel. And a company of men came to take him, and he called down fire from heaven, and they were destroyed. A second company of men came to take him, and he called down fire from heaven, and they were destroyed. A third company of men came to take him, and plead for mercy, and they were spared. Again we have two-thirds being destroyed, one-third being spared.

 

The two-thirds representing the reprobate – the unsaved of mankind and the one-third represented those who are saved – the elect of God.

2 Peter 1:19-21

King James Version (KJV)

 

19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

 

20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

 

21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

 

ALL THE CREDIT AND GLORY GOES TO GOD.

 

 

Pray to God for great discernment and test everything.

 

Remember let Scripture interpret Scripture.

 

 

1 Corinthians 2:10-13

King James Version (KJV)

 

10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

 

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

 

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

 

13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

 

 

1 Corinthians 14:3

King James Version (KJV)

 

3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

 

 

1 Corinthians 14:29-33

King James Version (KJV)

 

29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

 

30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

 

31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

 

32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

 

33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

 

 

Acts 17:11

11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

20 Despise not prophesyings.

 

21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
