Mystery Babylon

 Welcome to another show of TO THE HILT and I am Bob Hilt your host. The show tonight is on the topic of Babylon. 

The Bible has much to say about a City called Babylon and a mystery Babylon. So what is the mystery? 

Genesis Chapter 10: 8  And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. (Nimrod is never spoken of nicely in scripture, hunter of souls?)

9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.

10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

(out of Babel meaning confusion came Babylon)

11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

(Niveheh was the Capital of the Assyrian empire that took northern Israel into captivity. Their god was Dagon, which was half fish from the waist down and man from the waist up. Think Disney's little mermaid and that looked like Dagon.)

Next comes the story of the tower of Babel or confusion.

They must have been doing something evil for the Lord to 

confound their languages. 

Genesis Chapter 11: 1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. (My guess is Hebrew)

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 throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.

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. (trying to climb up to heaven another way)

Amos 9:2 “Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down:”

Jesus in John 10:1  “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.”

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.

So Northern Israel was taken into Assyria for their iniquity and never returned to their former land. When the Babylonian empire arose they conquered Assyria and Israel fled North. 

Here is a messianic prophecy that foretells that Israel shall return from the land of the North.

Jeremiah 23:8  “But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.”

Now Southern Judah rebelled against the Lord and they were given into the hand of Babylon as punishment. 

Jeremiah 25:11 “And this whole land [Judah] shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.”

Jeremiah 32:28 - Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:

Let us take a look at Isaiah

Isaiah Chapter 13: 1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.

2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.

3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.

4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.

5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.

6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:

8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.

9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

See also: Joel 3:15  “The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.”

Matthew 24:29  “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”

Revelation 6:12  “And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;”

Joel 2:10  “The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:”

11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.

13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

14 And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land.

15 Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.

16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.

17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.

[Medes and Persia is modern day Iran]

18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.

19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

20 It [Babylon] shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.

Jeremiah 25:12 “And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.”

This is foretold in Isaiah and Jeremiah.

21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.

22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.

The Bible ALONE  tells you who this mystery Babylon is....

END TIMES JERUSALEM 

The physical Babylon was destroyed and never to be rebuilt.

There is a spiritual Babylon which is end time Jerusalem from the Bible alone...

Revelation 18:21 - And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. .....

......Revelation 18:24 - And in her (Babylon) was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth. 

babylon was responsible for the BLOOD of PROPHETS.

Revelation 16:6 - For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. 

Revelation 17:6 - And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. 

Mystery Babylon killed the prophets

Jesus speaking Luke 13:33 - Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. 

for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. 

Jesus in Matthew  23:37 - O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 

The two end time witnesses of God are mentioned here:

Revelation 11:8 - And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 

Jesus, MY LORD was crucified in JERUSALEM, which is spiritually called Sodom and Egypt. NOT Rome or in Mecca or the USA

Do we believe Jesus or commentaries? 

How about Paul? 

Paul writes in 1 Thess 2:14, 16 - For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, EVEN AS THEY HAVE OF THE JEWS: WHO BOTH KILLED THE LORD JESUS, and their OWN PROPHETS, and have persecuted us; and THEY PLEASE NOT GOD, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: FOR THE WRATH IS COME UPON THEM TO THE UTTERMOST. 

If any can show me from the Bible alone where the USA, Rome or Islam killed the prophets please let me know. I hate Rome and know she has murdered many. Islam has killed many but is not mystery babylon.

However Jerusalem is also built on 7 hills as is Moscow (communism) and Istanbul (islam) and Seattle (microsoft) 

Matthew 23:34 - Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: 

Mat 23:35 - That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. 

Mat 23:36 - Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. 

Matthew 23:37 - O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!  Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 

Revelation 18:24 - And in her (babylon)  was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth. 

babylon was responsible for the BLOOD of PROPHETS.

Jesus speaking 

Luke 13:33 - Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. 

Jesus  in Matthew  23:37 - O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.  

I dedicated a lot of time and prayed to God to show me who Mystery Babylon is. Here are more verses. God was never married to the USA, Rome, etc. The Bible does not have ANY evidence those places are Mystery Babylon. But it does tell you who is. THE GREAT CITY The “great city” is used 10 times in the Book of Revelation, and every time, it is speaking about Jerusalem. “And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.” 

Revelation 16:19 The above verse distinguishes the nations (gentiles) from the Jews. There are two parties, not three, in that verse. The nations are Jerusalem/Babylon. 

MERCHANDISE Mystery Babylon is making the kings of the earth rich because she is buying their merchandise. “The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,” 

Revelation 18:15 “For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” 

Revelation 18:3 So these specific items below are sold to Mystery Babylon by the kings. “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,” 

Revelation 18:12 Interestingly, the items Mystery Babylon is buying (not all mentioned above) are all items needed to reinstate the temple and sacrifice system! They are also items the antichrist will use (Daniel 11:37-38). Please do research on items in the Old Testament used in the temple. 

JERUSALEM IN THE MILLENNIAL KINGDOM How can Jerusalem be destroyed and in the millennial kingdom? The layout of the millennial kingdom is in the last nine chapters of Ezekiel. Jerusalem in the millennial reign is not in the same exact place. And what really debunks that is the millennial Jerusalem is NINE times larger. The millennial Jerusalem has two rivers flowing out of its east and west side. 

Biblically, it is a different place altogether. AND FINALLY... “I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.” Revelation 2:9 

“Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.” Revelation 3:9

This concludes tonight’s show. 

The storm of darkness: A novel (introduction) by Chaplain Bob Walker

 The storm of darkness: A novel (introduction)

WARNING: If you follow TV preachers and have never bothered to read the Bible from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22 (I suggest the King James) You most likely not be interested in this book.

James chapter 1:5 - If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. PRAY FOR UNDERSTANDING

The Holy Spirit is the best teacher

Jesus said: John 10:27 - My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

God does not love everyone just read Malachi chapter 1 & Romans 9:13 as sometimes God hates the unrepentant sinner who hates the Lord.

TV is filth and do not expect preachers on TV to be any better

Isaiah Chapter 56 explains this well:

10 His watchmen [are] blind: they are all ignorant, they [are] all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.

11 Yea, [they are] greedy dogs [which] can never have enough, and they [are] shepherds [that] cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

TBN & 700 Club anyone?

Introduction:

The story setting is during events in the time of sorrows leading to the Tribulation and time of Jacob's trouble. These are the stories of those left behind.

Some stories or events shall mimic my life experiences as a child who left the Lord at an early age to live a life in sin and vain pleasure. the long road back that almost cost me my life. If the Lord has to almost kill you to get your attention he might just do so as He did in my case.

I shall explain my journey weeding through the lies of the Devil. The modern so called Church hides the truth since they either work for money or Babylon. I challenge you to read along with the scriptures I post in a King James Bible.

Time of Sorrows as the stage is set

It had been a short while since the conflict in the middle east and Iran had been subjugated and almost completely destroyed. The limited nuclear exchange in the confrontation between the major powers had been the catalyst to create a strong one world government of which had been the plan all along. The media harped constantly on needing a world government to prevent any future war. Third world banana dictatorships would have a voice of what happened in the United States (US), Canada and the European Union (EU).

After all it was said constantly that we could not take the chance of nations fighting nations with the power of the atom being able to destroy the earth. We must have a powerful one world government to prevent this once and for all. The newly adopted United Nations (UN) Government superseded the US constitution that was nullified.

Hate speech was illegal and arbitrary as to its meaning.

Racism, anti-semitism and homophobia was to be stamped out forever.

This world government of universal peace was the cry of all the media around the world with one voice for peace and safety, but without the prince of peace which is Jesus.

One calls to mind the Bible scripture in

1 Thessalonians 5:3 - For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

Soon after the middle east war, a worldwide economic crash happened with the massive debt that war and liberal spending causes. When the welfare checks ceased, the cities burned with riots. Gone were the days of soup kitchen lines as of the last depression in the 1930's. That was when people had respect for each other. Now it was every man for himself with mayhem and murder.

Psalms 9:17 - The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

What do you expect from a culture than kicked the Bible & Christ out of the public schools and courtrooms of America in 1963. When the riots happened the police had blue flu and called in sick to stay home to protect their own families and homes from the chaos that ensued. The EU had the same problems with the large third world refugee and Muslim populations as their cities were ablaze also according to news sources.

Since the Police were ineffective, the US military was called in to quell the violence.

They were given orders by the United Nations to confiscate all private firearms. Some in the military had a problem with shooting US citizens that refused to give up their guns. Some civilians who did not want to give up their guns and they shot back.

The saying "you can pray my gun from my cold dead hands" came true quite often. The civilian population who did not die defending their "rights" were told give up your firearms or they would be denied food. One can not eat bullets.

The president along with the regional head of the UN decided that the United Nation soldiers would be needed to halt the violence and enforce confiscation of all firearms. Anyone caught with a firearm could be shot on sight without trial. Order was to be restored and the nationwide violence quelled by any means necessary.

Even under the wicked rule of Rome, in the time of Christ, one was allowed self defense as Jesus said in

Luke 22:36 - Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Jesus said buy a sword, not to kill, but to protect.

Chinese and other UN foreign troops poured into America and many were amazed at how quickly they arrived in force. Some claimed they were already here in America and Mexico awaiting orders to deploy. These foreign troops had no problem with killing US citizens who refused orders from the UN world government.

Those who kept a gun hidden were told that if it was found the family would lose any property they owned and the owner would be thrown into prison, if not shot on the spot. Wives and children were encouraged to snitch on their families or else suffer the same treatment. Hot spots of trouble for the UN troops had food deliveries held up for weeks. A starving population has little energy to fight and resist.

Criticism of the new UN government was punishable by an automatic prison sentence. Food was severely rationed and most were on an almost starvation diet. Obesity was soon no longer a problem in America, which had been the land of plenty. Family pets often ended up on the dinner table. The elderly in nursing homes were left to die, if their families did not provide for them. Social services was a thing of the past.

Those who snitched and turned in neighbors were given extra food rations and many turned against their neighbors for a mouthful of food. Distrust enveloped the land...

Gone were the words of Jesus in

Matthew Chapter 22

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Many were forced from their homes and moved into communal accommodations like apartments. White privilege was to be a thing of the past. Whites were to be relocated from their homes to new residences. Multiculturalism was enforced at the end of a bayonet. Those who resisted were killed instantly without trial or remorse.

Whites were removed from positions of power in government and business. Racism was to be stamped out for good in this manner. Police and military were to only be multicultural. Mayors and police chiefs were to be non white. The only light colors in government and business had names like Cohen, Goldberg and Silverstein.

Chinese dictator Moa, the greatest mass murderer in history, said "power comes from the barrel of a gun". This lesson was taken to heart by the new rulership.

Stalin of the communist USSR was next in line as the greatest mass murderer in history. Many of these new UN laws were taken right from the Soviet Union's playbook of communist tactics. Stalin had murdered many millions of Christians with either bullets or starvation. God's wrath against once great America had only started. There were consequences for tolerating sin like sodomy and abortion. Those who blessed those who hated Jesus were given into the hands of those who hated Jesus.

This warning was unheeded:

2 John Chapter 1: 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into [your] house, neither bid him God speed: [in other words DO NOT SAY God bless you]

11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

There were strict curfews in place and you had to have authorizion and a good reason to be out, if you were stopped, even when it was not curfew. Identity cards were issued and were to be carried at all times as surveillance cameras were everywhere. unrestricted travel and vacations were a thing of the past.

Since the bank crash no one had money anymore except the 1% and old currency was now worthless. private ownership of precious metals like gold was illegal. Having more than a few days worth of food was considered hoarding and was illegal with harsh penalties.

Churches prior to the United Nations merger were bound by the state with their 501 C 3 IRS tax exempt status and state business charters. Now they were strictly under Government control and new testament Bibles were banned and illegal being considered hate speech. You could be jailed or killed for merely possessing the words of Jesus in the King James Bible.

Jesus warned in John 15:18 - If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

The Talmudic seven Noahide laws were to be the new standard of morality. These laws were on the books in the US since President Reagan, but now they were to be strictly enforced under penalty of death.

These seven laws were allegedly given to Noah.

But where is that in the Bible? NOWHERE is where.

The seven Noahide laws are as follows:

Not to worship idols.

Not to curse God.

To establish courts of justice.

Not to commit murder.

Not to commit adultery.

Not to steal.

Not to eat flesh torn from a living animal.

On the surface these do not sound so bad to a Christian. Thing is Talmudic Christ hating rabbis interpret these laws and all Christians are guilty of worship of an idol called Jesus. the punishment is death and method of execution is beheading.

Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Bitcoin and electronic currency was created to prepare the masses for 666 the mark of the beast. Cash and checks were almost a thing of the past as a new electronic currency was being implemented. The UN knew of every financial transaction made by everyone.

The UN refugee relocation program was unhindered and millions upon millions of untold third world aliens flooded the borders of the United States and the European Union. Entire villages from Africa and South America were settled in America and Europe taking the houses that the whites were forced out of.

English had become a second or third language in parts of the country. We are the world, we are the children Michael Jackson had sang for UNity. Yet the God of the Bible wanted separation and segregation.

2 Corinthians Chapter 6

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you,....Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

The media spewed their hatred against the whites for their oppression and colonialism against people of color. Crimes against whites were hardly punished, even if the perpetrator was caught. With the guns gone, crimes against whites was rampant. What had happened to formerly white South Africa had come to America and Europe.

Freedom of speech was a distant memory and the internet was tightly controlled. Christian evangelism was forbidden even in churches that were state run. God was allowing Satan to separate the sheep from the goats.

The true church went underground and this is their story.....
