John of AllFaith's Thus Say The Prophets:

The Revelation: Chapter Eightteen © John of AllFaith*

Revelation 18:1 After these things, I saw another angel descend from the sky, having great authority. His glory illuminated the earth.

Whenever the Jewish prophets use phrases like "after these things," "therefore," "wherefore," and so on, pay attention to what occurred previously. Remember, there are no chapters or verses in the actual text. In this case, recall that Babylon the Great has just emerged as the planetary tool of the Rex Mundi's HR Department. In the previous chapter, Yochanan presented an overview of the reign of Babylon the Great. We discussed how the origins of this worldwide institution began with the Nephilim, Nimrod, and Semiraimis. The "Great Reset" to that Pagan system will now restore the religion, superstitions, and perversions of that period worldwide in open defiance of HaShem. After describing that system, Yochanan now reveals its final destruction. Many people gloss over this chapter, only understanding that New Babylon will fall, but much important information is revealed here.

Baal and Angel Worship

Biblical Scripture is usually vague about the identity and activities of the various spirit beings lest people be tempted to worship them. Humans are innately religious beings, and Baal worship has been with us since the days following Noah's Ark and Nimrod's ascension to power at Babel.

The worship of Baal throughout the Middle East was inextricably bound to the economy of the land, which depended on the rains. Unlike Egypt and Mesopotamia, which relied on irrigation, Eretz Yisrael' drinks water from the rain of heaven' as written in Deuteronomy 11:10–11. During the summer, the rains cease, but the annual temporary drought is no threat unless it is abnormally prolonged. When this happened, the ancients looked for supernatural causes, giving rise to Baalism.

In heavy drought years, when the rains do fall, the 'skies become like iron,' the 'land like brass,' and human toil is futile because 'the earth will not yield its increase,' as referenced in Leviticus 26:19–20. Such years were devastating for the agrarian-based cultures of the Middle East.

During such harsh years, the people assumed they had offended the spirit beings, and hence they sought to appease them through the Baal cult, as Nimrod and Semiraimis had taught them. They sought the aid of the unseen "masters" or demigods to restore the life-giving rains, regarded as Baal's bounty. The word baal means master, overseer or demigod. Overseeing all the Baalim was one almighty Baal, who was, ultimately, Nimrod, king of the Nephilim.

.

The Bible records Baal worship from the wilderness wanderings of the Exodus onward, tracing its origins to the Tower, or more accurately, the Ziggurat of Babel. At Shittim, the Hebrews attached themselves to Baal-Peor, ate sacrifices for the dead, and indulged in sacred sexual orgies (Numbers 25:1–11; Psalms 106:28). The pervasive influence of the Baal cult persisted through the centuries despite the unrelenting protests of the biblical prophets and some of our kings. The horrendous and repulsive aspects of Baal worship included sexual excesses and perversions of every kind (Isaiah 57:3–10) and copulation with animals (Hosea. 13:2), such as Baal himself performed in the Ugaritic myths. It included wanton abortion and infanticide. God's disgust and response to these practices appear throughout the Bible: Leviticus 18 and 20, Deuteronomy 12 and 18, Jeremiah 7, 19 and 32, 2 Kings 17, 21 and 23, and elsewhere.

Jeremiah 32:30 Indeed the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been doing only evil in My sight from their youth; for the sons of Israel have been only provoking Me to anger by the work of their hands," declares the Lord. "Indeed, this city has been to Me a provocation of My anger and My wrath from the day that they built it, even to this day, so that it should be removed from before My face because of all the evil of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah which they have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their leaders, their priests, their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They have turned their back to Me and not their face; though I taught them, teaching again and again, they would not listen and receive instruction. But they put their detestable things in the house, called by My name, to defile it. They built the high places of Baal that are in the valley of Ben-Hinnom [i.e., Gehenna] to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech, which I had not commanded them nor had it entered My mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.

Virtually every reference to Baal's consort, the violent "Virgin Anath" – with whom Baal copulates by the thousand in one of the Ugaritic mythological fragments – have been excluded from the Bible, but the goddesses Ashtart (Judges 2:13) and Asherah (Judges. 6:30; II Kings 16:32–33) who is Ashtoroth and Semiraimis are associated with Baal and Nimrod of the Nephilim.

The ongoing conflict between the worship of HaShem and Baalism reached a crisis with Prophet Elijah's challenge to Baal's prophets to determine whether Baal or HaShem supplied the rain (I Kings 18). Unfortunately, the spectacular victory of emunah over superstition did not have a lasting effect, and the people time and again returned to the Globalism of the Baal cult.

Harvard University provides extra-biblical evidence of the flourishing Baal cult at Samaria in the ninth and eighth centuries B.C.E. in the form of personal names containing Baal as the theophoric element, such as bʾybʿl, "Baal is my father," bʿl zmr, "Baal sings" or "Baal is strong," bʿl zkr, "Baal remembers," bʿl mʿny, "Baal is my answer," etc. Yehu's massacre of the Baal worshipers recorded in II Kings 10:18–28 did not eradicate the Pagan worship (II Kings 10:31). In Judah, the murder of the queen mother, Athaliah, and of Mattan, priest of Baal, and the smashing of the altars and cult images in the Baal temple (mentioned in II Kings 11:18) did not wipe out the cult (II Kings 12:3–4). Ahaz fostered Baal worship (II Chron. 28:2); Hezekiah attempted to eliminate it; Manasseh, his son, again gave it royal support (II Kings 21:3); and Yosiah, in his turn, purged the Temple of HaShem of the utensils made for Baal and Asherah (II Kings 23:4). Now today the United States government, the EU, the UN, the World Economic Forum and other powers are promoting and even mandating by the law the Great Reset to this evil system.

With the growing interest in angel and demon worship/adoration and Gnosticism, it is worth noting that according to Resh Lakish (Rabbi Shimon ben Lakish of Tiberias, 230-270 CE), all of the specific names for the angels were brought back by the Jews from Babylon. The worship of the ba'alim among the Hebrews can generally be traced among the Semites, especially the Babylonians. In Babylon, the name Bel identifies one of the earliest and most honored of national deities. Bel was the city god of Nippur, perhaps the oldest of Babylonian cities. In the earliest times, Nippur was a religious center sacred to Merodach, a protege of Bel, hence known as Bel-Merodach or simply Bel, as mentioned in Isaiah 46:1.

Properly speaking, angels are celestial messengers of HaShem and never seek their own recognition or glory. Most modern biblical scholars agree with Resh Lakish here, so one should use caution when considering these names and never invoke them by name. This point is very relevant when studying Babylon the Great. As stated above, Babylon the Great will be the return of Babylonian religion under a Globalist-based context. The current rise in angel veneration and the belief that certain humans are incarnate angels fits this understanding perfectly.

"Babylon the Great has fallen, fallen."

18:2,3 He cried with a mighty voice, saying, "Babylon the Great has fallen, fallen, and has become an abode of demons, a holding cell for every manner of unclean spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hateful bird! For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication; the kings of the earth committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her abundance and luxuries."

Within the ancient religions of Babylon, Sumeria, India, Egypt, Greece, Rome, and other cultures, this seed of Baal worship was present and is again growing today through the Great Reset and the rise of anti-Semitism. This seed has grown within Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Shintoism, Christianity, and even Judaism. It grows wherever people seek the Truth and try to find God, meaning, enlightenment, and freedom because wherever there is truth, falsehood arises to counterfeit it.

In the late first and early second century CE, that vile seed began manifesting within the Jewish Way sect through the Nicolaitan dogma.

To understand the significance of Babylon the Great, the warning about "that woman Jezebel" reveals the spiritual fornication in every culture, race, ethnic group, and religious and philosophical system. In the End of Days, the world will ALL embrace Babylon the Great's One World Religion and her master, Rex Mundi.

As the Woke religions and philosophies of the world continue being "vomited out" (Revelation 3:15), they are all being unified within the Globalist teachings of "Jezebel" in service to the Beast.

As Babylon the Great emerges, she will become (is becoming) the central abode for demonic activity on the Earth.

"Come out of her, my people!"

18:4 I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people, and have no participation in her sins, so you don't receive of her plagues, 18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.

The call is given to come out from among her minions. We are now witnessing the emergence of Babylon the Great, and we must begin to decide when to leave her system altogether. Again, Babylon the Great does not yet exist. HOWEVER, much of organized religion already clearly bears her imprint.

Finding a congregation that does not manifest an abundance of Laodecian tendencies can be tough!

Until the One World Religion is formally established, each person of faith must determine what to do concerning joining or maintaining membership in local assemblies, denominations, etc. Once Babylon the Great is established, the scriptural command will be clear: Depart! Flee from her!

And notice the reason: "...that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don't receive of her plagues." If one supports congregations (denominations, etc) with money, energy, prayers, time, etc., one is partaking in what those congregations and their ministries do. If one's congregation feeds and clothes the poor, encourages the outcasts, and welcomes all sincere people with open and loving arms, one will receive partial rewards for those good works. But, if one's congregation, denomination, and so on does or supports evil, if they support antisemitic causes, if they foster prejudice, abortion, discrimination, racism, and so on, then one also partake of those things! It is, therefore, a most serious consideration! We don't merely "go to church or shul." We are the church or shul!

Those who remain within the organized religions of Babylon the Great will be partakers in her evils, and when the time comes for HaShem to order her destruction, such people will also have a share in that! Take this seriously. God does.

The same principle applies to political and social affiliations. Some streams or cords of moral responsibility unite us to what we support, which is why many people are leaving all political parties and registering as independents (or leaving the System entirely and not voting at all). It is why many refuse to do jury duty (understanding that this corrupt and immoral state has no right to judge anyone when it is so blatantly evil itself). It is why many refuse to salute the flag of any nation (knowing that their kingdom is not of this world yet). Understanding that Lucifer is the god of this world (II Corinthians 4:4), many refuse to pay him homage in any way or to support his evil System. Once Rex Mundi and his False Prophet are in direct power, such convictions will be essential (arguably, they already are!).

18:6 Render to her accounts as she did to yours, and repay her double as she deserves, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.
18:7 However much she glorified herself and lived in luxury, so much give her torment and mourning. Because she says in her heart, 'I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.'

There are a few important points to note here.

The angel declares, "Come out of her, my people..." and so we know he is speaking to the people, not applauding HaShem's judgment of her (which, of course, the angel does endorse wholeheartedly). He tells the resistance (the 144,000 Jewish emissaries and the Great Multitude of the Gentiles who stand with them) to render her due! As we have discussed, Mashiach will lead HaShem's people throughout the Seven years. When the Day of Vengeance falls upon the Nicolaitanes, the people will be part of it directly.

Revelation 3:17 Because you say, 'I am rich, and have gotten riches, and require nothing;' and yet don't realize that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;

Now, this realization will be had as the wealthy congregations, cathedrals, and temples are looted and burned! Once faithful members rush into the Vatican libraries and vaults collecting the wealth of the ages, the disempowered Papacy will be at a loss to stop them! Books and scrolls long hidden from the public will be found and brought to light (although much of this information probably won't be revealed until the dawn of the Kingdom Age due to the chaos). Assuming they still exist, the world will be able to read the original writings of the New Testament and countless related documents! Just imagine the wealth of knowledge as everything the Nicolaitanes have hidden is made known:

Matthew 10:26 Therefore don't be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed; and hidden that will not be known.

These Laodecian Nicolaitanes will boast that they are no widows, an apparent reference to their being exiled into the Tribulation by HaShem. The Elite will boast that they are not widows, for their diabolical husband Nicholas, Lucious, Nimrod, accepts them still! And yet mourning is what they will experience as Rex Mundi abandons them without so much as a divorce certificate!

Because no one is loyal and faithful to a whore!

18:8 Therefore, in a single day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine as she is burned with divine fire for the Lord God who has judged her is mighty.

There is some disagreement as to the meaning of the term "in one day" here:

The word "one" (mia here) means "only one" and "day" (hemera) usually refers to the period of light occurring within 24 hours (as opposed to the dark of night). However, hemera is also used in a general sense, as in, "in the days of Herod, the king..." (Matthew 2:1).

Because the prophet says en mia hemera, "in only one day," the meaning seems clear: Within the span of a single 12-hour day, something horrific is going to occur that will utterly devastate the Babylon the Great System and its global influence, and that Mashiach will covertly cause this event. Once this occurs, the forces of Light will take advantage of this crisis as described above in 18:6 and 7.

18:9 The kings of the earth, who committed fornication and lived in luxury with her, will weep and wail over her when they consider the smoke of her burning. 18:10 They will stand far away for fear of her torment, saying, 'Alas, alas, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.'

The time has been further revealed from 12 hours to a single hour. This event will be vital to understand for those living in Rome and elsewhere when this happens. Based on this, the destruction will not be a gradual process that one can gauge and wait until the critical moment to escape. When we take this prophecy literally, the global institution, which will likely be headquartered in Rome, also fits the prophecy that specifically references Rome's destruction. But remember, Babylon the Great will be a worldwide institution regardless of its corporate offices, so the destruction of Rex Mundi's HR Department will impact everything and everyone on Earth.

Some misinterpret this reference as speaking of Jerusalem based on the warning of Yeshua to flee that city. That fleeing, however, will occur immediately following the Abomination of Desolation, while this fleeing will occur later. Also, we know from the context that this is the City of Seven Hills (Revelation 19:9): the reference is to Rome, not Jerusalem.

The kings of the Earth, you will recall, are all acting "in one accord" with the Beast at this time. Therefore, the fall of Babylon the Great will have grievous consequences for them as rulers. Something will happen in a single hour that will rock the foundations of their political power and control.

18:11 The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because no one buys her merchandise anymore; 18:12 merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, and of pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, thyine wood [Greek: thuon: "fragrant wood" or thuein, "to sacrifice"], implements of ivory, implements made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble; 18:13 and cinnamon, incense, ointments, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, domesticated animals, sheep, horses, chariots, and people's bodies and souls.

And not only the politicians but also the merchants will mourn her loss. There is a growing misconception that the world is heading toward global Communism. This is not what is happening! The Novus Ordo Seclorum system is Fascist, not Communist. Socialism, whether used to springboard Communism or, like Hitler's National Socialist Party, to promote Fascism, always results in dictatorship and death.

Rex Mundi, like Nimrod, will be the pinnacle of power (think of Adolf Hitler, only much worse and not insane). Like Hitler, his will not only be a political system but a religious one as well. Even before the Abomination of Desolation, his followers will view him as god-like. As the global potentate, Rex Mundi will control everything using the corporate power base of the Bilderberg Group, WEF, the Open Society Foundation, and similar agencies.

As Rex Mundi directs, select corporate executives will lead and manipulate the global economy. These men are already vying for their future careers through mergers and cancel culture attacks on our freedoms.

The reference to selling thyine wood is worth noting. thuon translates as "fragrant wood" and thuein as "to sacrifice." The meaning is that the losses mourned by the corporate elite will include the fragrant woods burned in worship to the Beast! Under orders from the False Prophet, billions of people will buy this fragrant North African wood to worship their god! The financial loss of this wood alone will be astronomical. The list of their losses is doubtless intended as an example only. However, the loss of Babylon the Great's control over the masses will be staggering! The house-of-cards global economy that is now being built, including the soon-coming digital currency, will crumble when this Whore is destroyed!

However, we see something else in this verse. We see that the worship of the Beast will be orchestrated through Babylon the Great, confirming what I explained previously about the use of home and public shrines for mandatory worship.

When discussing chapter 13, I presented my view, based on a dream and subsequent visions I've had, about what the Mark would be and do. Rather than reviewing this material again here, you may want to refer back there and begin reading from the subheading: "The Mark as a Delivery System" to refresh your memory.

Essentially, I believe that the Mark of the Beast will be a technologically advanced delivery system that will not only implant tracking devices throughout the body (and hence be irremovable) but be an upgradable essential record and a financial interface between the implant and external scanners (located in the right hand in most cases), but will also fundamentally alter the DNA of those transfected with it and alter the naturally encoded Name of God with that of the Nephilim Beast anti-god.

This verse (18:13) supports this view when it speaks of "people's bodies and souls." Let's look at this a little closer

.

This verse says, "... and slaves, and souls of men."

The word translated as "slaves" and "people's bodies" here is soma (interesting parallels to Aldus Huxely's Brave New World aside), it means the physical body (whether of humans or animals). It can refer to slaves, but that is only a partial meaning. In context, it speaks of the ownership or complete control over the Marked by the System the False Prophet will establish in the service of Rex Mundi through the Babylon the Great system.

"People's bodies and souls" will be nothing more than commodities controlled by the corporate fascists employed by Babylon the Great! A most disturbing truth was revealed here (and which I believe Aldus Huxely was aware of). These global fascist capitalists will be buying and selling the bodies and souls of human beings whom their technologies will transform from homo sapiens to homo diablos (presented as homo deus by the Elite! We discussed this earlier.

The Mark of the Beast will make this nightmare possible! Once one is 'Marked,' human volition and free will be submitted to the Beast. These poor, damned people will be little more than zombies of the Elite! Yochanan's dystopian vision agrees with George Orwell and Aldus Huxley, or theirs with his.

1984 Vs. Brave New World | Orwell Vs. Huxley

Aldus Huxley discussing Brave New World in 1956

Theatrical tailor for 1984 by George Orwell

Through the Mark of the Beast, Babylon the Great will control the world with Rex Mundi as Big Brother.

It is known that Aldus Huxley, and to a lesser extent George Orwell, had direct ties with the Novus Ordo Seclorum Elite. These were not works of fiction they shared; they were warnings by people on the inside.

Rex Mundi will be considered "above" such mundane affairs as managing the world economy, and so even as Adolf Hitler delegated such authorities to his underlings while maintaining absolute control, so will Rex Mundi. This is where the False Prophet comes in.

The False Prophet will preside over Babylon the Great even as Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler ruled over the SS. The False Prophet will wield such awesome power. He will oversee the loyalty oath, the Mark, and the execution of those deemed unworthy or unwilling to accept it.

In chapters 13 and 14 we discussed the Mark of the Beast. There, we learned that receiving the Mark will require one to take an oath of loyalty to Rex Mundi and his global government, even as citizens of the Third Reich pledged to their furor personally. The same thing will happen again. Doubtless, there will even be a required common greeting such as "Heil Hitler" or perhaps "Heil Rex."

Under the authority of the False Prophet, Babylon the Great will oversee the worship of the Beast and the issuance of his Mark (the encoded implants/vaccinations).

When HaShem destroys Babylon the Great, this evil global system will collapse into chaos! The city of Rome (including Vatican City) will probably be the central hub of the global economy and religion. When the system is unexpectedly destroyed, "in an hour," the computer and digital networks the technology is based on will also fail.

Yochanan does not tell us how this happens. It could result from an official decree by the Son of Perdition; an EMP could destroy the infrastructure, perhaps a nuclear attack or accident. Whatever the external cause, Mystery Babylon will be "recalled" and obliterated by the Creator.

Since we know that:

Revelation 13:16 He [i.e., the False Prophet] causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or their foreheads; 13:17 and that no one would be able to buy or to sell, unless he has that mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name...

We also know that destroying the foundation of the Beast System will cripple it and that no one with the Mark will then be able to buy or sell either! It will be similar to when HaShem confused the languages of Babel. When the economic, technological, religious, and medical services performed by Babylon the Great have been destroyed, any remaining form of civilization will be gone! Along with any loyalty to the Man Crueller than Haman and his Great Reset to Babylonian Paganism.

Yochanan continues:

18:14 The fruits your soul lusted after are lost to you. Everything about a sumptuous and delicate lifestyle of splendor has departed from you, and you will never find them again.

This comment is directed to Jezebel and the leaders of the Nicolaitane system but suggests something much more profound! As we learn in the Book of Iyov (Job) and elsewhere, we are on this planet as free agents to determine the meaning of life. According to biblical calculations, humans have had everything conceivable to find fulfillment, with God's permission and patience, for almost six thousand years. All of our searching has now ended. We will never experience these lifestyles of rebellion and uncertainty again. The Creator will now reveal the truth into the consciousness of every homo sapiens. As the War of Magog and Olam Hazeh draw to its inevitable conclusion as the Theocratic Olam Haba begins, "we will know even as we are known," as Paul teaches at 1 Corinthians 13:12

18:15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for fear of her torment, weeping and mourning; 18:16 saying, 'Alas, alas, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!
18:17 For in an hour such great riches are laid to waste.' Indeed, every shipmaster, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and all who gain their living by sea, stood far away, 18:18 and cried out as they beheld the smoke of her burning, saying, 'What city was ever like this great city?'

The notion of ships transporting goods references her intimate involvement in the world economy. This description would include airlines, etc. The point is that under the rule of Babylon the Great and her False Prophet Rome will be the hub of the global economy, doubtless through the Club of Rome:

[which was] founded in April 1968 by Aurelio Peccei, an Italian industrialist, and Alexander King, a Scottish scientist. It was formed when a small international group of people from the fields of academia, civil society, diplomacy, and industry met at a villa owned by Rockefeller in Rome, Italy, hence the name.
Hasan Özbekhan, Erich Jantsch, and Alexander Christakis were responsible for conceptualizing the original prospectus of the Club of Rome titled The Predicament of Mankind. This prospectus was founded on a humanistic architecture and the participation of stakeholders in democratic dialogue. When the Club of Rome Executive Committee in the Summer of 1970 opted for a mechanistic and elitist methodology for an extrapolated future, they resigned from their positions. (Source).

Arguably, the founders had good intentions, but the Elite today do not. For more on the Club of Rome and its nefarious activities, watch these two excellent videos:

These videos depict how Babylon the Great's religion and structure are being activated today.

Their plans will fail, however! When this house of cards collapses, the Elite will mourn and tremble at the realization that nature is not God; nature's God is!

18:19 They cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, 'Alas, alas, the great city, in which all who had ships in the sea were made rich through her great wealth!' For in one hour is she made desolate.
18:20 "Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy ones, apostles, and prophets; for God's decree has avenged you on her."

Even as the Elite lament the loss of Babylon the Great, the holy ones, the Believers, will exalt in God's wisdom and power!

It is somewhat conjecture, but Mashiach will have already placed his people ready for this event. When it occurs, they will rush to retrieve those items desired to be preserved for history from the Vatican vaults and other places. They will gather works of art, scrolls, books, jewelry, and other items. Others may join in this sacking of Rome out of greed; however, since all those who accept the Mark of the Beast will have lost most of their volition, their part in these activities will probably be minimal. Doubtless, police and others will seek to stop the looters; however, Rome will be in such chaos that there will probably be little serious resistance to the Believers. Once the System is destroyed, no one will direct the human drones.

18:21 A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, "Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all. 18:22 The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more in you. No artisan, of whatever craft, will be found anymore at all in you. The sound of milling will be heard no more at all in you. 18:23 The lamp's light will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and the bride will be heard no more at all in you, for your merchants were the elite of the earth, for with your idolatrous drugs, all the nations were deceived.

Recall the following verses from John's preview of these events:

Revelation 16:17 The seventh poured his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple of heaven from the throne, saying, "It is done!"
16:18 There were voices, flashes of lightning, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men on the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty.
16:19 The great city [i.e. Roma] was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. In the sight of God, Babylon the Great was remembered to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
16:20 Every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
16:21 Great hailstones, about the weight of a talent, fell from the sky onto the people. People blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail because this plague was exceedingly severe.

This is the point John is describing here in chapter 18. Roma, the City of Romulus, the world headquarters of Nicolaitan power and its False Prophet and Reichsführer of the New World Order, will suffer an earthquake of unparalleled magnitude. These quakes will rock much of Europe. The city will be split into three sections by the initial earthquake. Amid the aftershocks, the holy ones will rush to loot the treasures of the Vatican and Roma, each under the direction of Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit of God's anointing). Having accomplished this, they will flee for safety (presumably going north away from the seas), knowing what is yet to come:

As "... a great millstone" will be cast into the sea.

This "millstone" probably refers to the great hailstones that will fall as described in verse 21 of chapter 16 above: "Great hailstones, about the weight of a talent..." A talent in this context is about 100 US pounds (45.3 kilos). These will be massive hailstones capable of doing extreme damage. These falling mountains of ice will pound the land and seas shortly after the earthquakes.

This verse (18:21) doubtless foretells how these massive quakes will cause buckles in the earth's tectonic plates, causing massive tidal waves. The Ligurian and Mediterranean Seas floor will crack open and erupt into enormous flood waters covering the entire Italian peninsula. The Adriatic Sea will doubtless reciprocate, first dropping but then lurching upward, sandwiching Roma and all of Italy between rival torrents of water that will pound the land mercilessly. The land will crumble into the seas before this onslaught, and Rome will never be found again when it's finished! There will be absolute destruction comparable to Pompeii in 79 CE or the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah. In this way, the Whore of Babylon will face absolute and utter destruction.

The Fall of Babylon then is two-fold. It refers to the destruction of the global false religion into which the present Laodicean religions and movements will devolve. It also references the literal destruction of the City of Rome, which will most likely be the headquarters of the Nicolaitan portion of the Novus Ordo Seclorum.

We consider a key phrase in verse 23:

    18:23 -for your merchants were the great leaders of the earth; for by your sorceries all the nations were deceived.

It has also been translated as:

    18:23 -for your merchants were the earth's elite; all the nations were deceived with your idolatrous drugs.

These idolatrous drugs reference the MRNA sorceries that intend to transform homo sapiens life to a new species of degraded servants. These men were the megistanes of the Earth. This word means the grandees, magnates, nobles, and chief men. The word "great" conveys this. However, the word "Elite" includes the sense that they will control finances, impact the culture, and are considered to be superior to their peers in a way the word great does not. For instance, Gandhi ji of India was a truly great man, but he certainly was not the sort of person described here. These will be the Elite of the New World Order, the sons of the Nephilim.

"Idolatrous Drugs"

Note that the words translated as sorceries and as idolatrous drugs respectively are very telling.

The word in Greek is pharmakeia, from which we get the words pharmacy, pharmaceutical, and so on. In medieval times, people were far more concerned about witchcraft and sorcery running amok than about medicines and globalist pharmaceutical companies. Of course, many sorcerers applied their craft with the use of drugs. The translations are correct in their translations, but there are better ones today.

We know from context that the False Prophet will "deceive the world through the Mark of the Beast." Since we now understand that the Mark will be an MRNA-based implant (something inconceivable to Yochanan 2000 years ago), the pharmaceutical ramifications of this implant are apparent to us as they would not have been to him.

Of this word pharmakeia Strong's Concordance informs us:

Pharmakeia (far-mak-i'-ah);
Word Origin: Greek, Noun Feminine from (5332):
    the use or the administering of drugs poisoning
    sorcery, magical arts, often found in connection with idolatry and fostered by it
    metaph. The deceptions and seductions of idolatry.

Considering the context Yochanan is describing but not understanding, I am convinced that the most accurate translation here is "idolatrous drugs." However, even this term only partially relays what he was seeing. No terminology existed for Yochanan that could have come any closer to describing what he saw.

When the Mark of the Beast is implanted into someone, the recipient will be transfected with lab-designed pharmaceutical agents that will literally alter the person's DNA and erase God's Name from their consciousness as desired by the Elite. Most transfected persons will become, for all intent and purposes, zombies. Some of the drones will be designed as killing machines for the Global Union military, others will be programmed for manual labor, and so on, but all will submit to Rex Mundi and his New World Order completely. If you accept the Mark, you too will submit to the Beast. Refuse! No matter the cost!

This is the plan of the Elite, and it is being played out right before our eyes.

This is what God calls us to oppose, even to the death.

18:24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of holy ones, and of all who have been slain on the earth."

For her crimes against God and humanity, Babylon the Great will be utterly annihilated, and "Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all." (Rev. 18:21 cited above).

REJECT THE MARK OF THE BEAST NO MATTER WHAT!
