I do believe that Revelation 17 and 18 may be talking about the US.

INteresting.

KJV: "5And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

6And 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.

"Blood of the saints"? "blood of the martyrs of Jesus"?

If you truly believe that America is the Mother of Harlots, the Great Whore, might I suggest you - get the he*l out.

If there truly is a ‘Rapture’ of the true believers of God then the USA will be left with liberal perversions of every sort to run wild and free....just like when God removed Lot from Sodom and Gomorah before He lowered the boom on that cesspool. Great empires have fallen to due corruption...don’t think it cannot happen eventually to the USA.

>>”Blood of the saints”? “blood of the martyrs of Jesus”?<<

Abortion is a starter. But more importantly, Babylon is really more of a symbol. And we don’t always know what kinds of deals our country has made with other countries, like the fact that many countries get their power trading with us (like China) and in spite of bad stuff going on there (again, like China - or Iran or many others) we continue to trade with them and sometimes even give “most favored nation” status. It makes up complicent in and of their activity of which we are aware.

>>If you truly believe that America is the Mother of Harlots, the Great Whore, might I suggest you - get the he*l out.<<

Why do you think I specifically mentioned Revelation 18: 4,5?
“Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, so you will not take part in her sins and so you will not receive her plagues, because her sins have piled up all the way to heaven and God has remembered her crimes.”

With great power comes the ability to do both great good and great evil - and both carry consequences and responsibilities.

This nation is the most powerful nation EVER to exist on the face of the earth. It has done some great things. It also has blood on it’s hands. When one removes patriotism from their perspective and tries to view this nation and culture as it currently exists - from an historical and biblical perspective - there are, for lack of a better word, warts.

Actually that verse refers to false religion. (including yours)America and Britain are the two headed 7 horned beast.

Get it straight.
