Mystery Babylon and America's Possible Symbolic Role
It seems to be the present day Spirit/attitude of America symbolizes
mystery Babylon, spiritually speaking ... because America as a melting pot of
people from the Nations/cultures/religions in the world, ultimately represents
aspects of the unredeemed nature at war with the Spirit of Christ within... The
Spirit of America at war within mirrors different aspect of both the redeemed
and the unredeemed nature, back to each nation from which her descendants
originated historically, giving humanity globally the opportunity to see
themselves as a mixture of flesh and spirit... some who are walking out their
redemption, reflecting those who having tasted of Jesus' truth/power are seeking
to 'do what is right in their own eyes', others are in open rebellion... all of
us are in need of resting in/drawing upon the present day power of the
sovereignty of God's Spirit within, and His unfolding plan for us, in our
present age and the age to come.
Could it be, America in the role of mystery Babylon, reveals the
limitations/aspects of humanity which hinder spiritual growth when it goes
unchecked .... when the carnal nature does not want to be accountable and seeks
to build it's own Kingdom for gain, like those who followed the leaders of
Babylonia in days of old, (Ex Tower of Babel in Gen 11)?
Could it truly be, in the Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, the unredeemed
nature is being manifested as mystery Babylon (the Harlot versus than Bride of
Christ) ... in a symbolic imagery form, to expose/mirror the unredeemed lust
motivated attitude of those who come together as one body of people... to build
their own Kingdom outside of His redemption; and the anti Christ Spirit
attempting to overcome present day America is being used as a public example of,
an attitude which is at war with the Spirit of all that is redeemed?
Could it be, the symbolic representatives of Babylonia in ancient days... before
the language of man was confused and man was scattered, preventing carnal man
from building their own limiting Kingdom ... was a precursor/foreshadow of what
was to take place spiritually in our age... revealing the contrast of the Harlot
and the Bride of Christ, giving everyone the change to choose having seen the
contrast?
Could it be, the Spirit of Lord through love and mercy, seeing into the depths
of our hearts, chose to stop them, intervened because HE has a more glorious
plan already in motion; such was established at the foundations of the world,
and was prophecied promising a redeemer Messiah?
Could it be... today, Father is still intervening, in behalf of HIS creation...
to bring about the fullness of HIS glorious plan and the example of the last
days of America as a self righteous, wealthy superpower, who in many ways has
chosen to separate itself from the commands of the God in whom it originally
trusted, is a warning to those who seek to imitate her arrogant
attitude/greed/ways?
Could it be believers are being convicted and called out from such a mindset as
an example/light... to receive the mind/power of Christ afresh... whereby there
will be evidence His Kingdom rules our heart and lives, and we are not looking
to our government/world leaders to 'save' us?
Could it be the handwriting of HIS Kingdom, a call to repentance to receive
redemption, is on the wall, so to speak and everyone will be given eyes to see,
ears to hear, a heart to surrender and.............. that they too might receive
that which is already ours to embrace through Christ ... Jesus being the author
and finisher of our faith?
Please consider A_Prayer_of_Blessings after
rereading Revelation 18, keeping in mind the destruction of the 'World Trade'
Center, which the whole world could watch from afar it having been caught on
tape; an act which ultimately has affected the wealth/trade agreements of the
world, the global economies of the world, ever since... such caused an increase
of wars and rumors of wars to come... and has exposed much corruption and greed
among organizations and world leaders, to include within the Church System. Such
leaders often represent those who follow them/elect/look to them first, rather
than the Lord.
This is a good thing... for such is part of Father's unfolding plan... and is
necessary to bring about circumcised hearts and the greatest out pouring, rising
up of HIS Spirit in our hearts, since the days of Pentecost... and the birthing
of the New Covenant. Bless You Father... we rest in YOU and Your will... and
ever unfolding plan.
