1. The Location of Mystery Babylon

In Revelation 17:3 it says "So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns." Revelation 17:9 shows the location of the woman which is mystery Babylon. In Revelation 17:9 it says "And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth." This is Rome in Italy. The Encyclopedia Britannica describes the" Seven Hills Of Rome" as a "group of hills on or about which the ancient city of Rome was built." (1) The location of mystery Babylon is in Rome, Italy. Today many call Vatican City the headquarters of the Roman Catholic church.

2. The Colors Of Mystery Babylon

Revelation 17: 4 describes the colors of Mystery Babylon. In Revelation 17:4 it says " And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:" Notice the colors purple, scarlet (or red), gold, precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand. In the year 2000, the newspaper starting showing color pictures of the pope as he traveled to Egypt and Israel." An article titled "Pope Celebrates Mass in Egypt -Pontiff Deplores Bias Against Christians" (2) describes some of the pope's colors, "The pope was greeted with cheers, emotional waving and song as he slowly made his way to the altar, dressed in white and gold robes." This picture also shows the pope giving a wafer to an Egyptian Catholic with the pope and cardinal holding a cup with gold in the inside standing in front of a gold and white chair. The cardinal also had clothing that was white and scarlet. In the March 12th issue of the Oregonian an article titled " The Pope's Crusade"(3), shows a picture of the pope dressed in a purple and white robe with a scarf standing between two cardinals dressed in white and scarlet. Another article from the Columbian Newspaper, titled "Frail pontiff forgoes Christ's symbolic walk" (4) shows a picture of the pope dressed in white and scarlet . We see from Revelation 17:4 that these unique colors show the Roman Catholic Church is Mystery Babylon.

3. Mystery Babylon Drunken With The Blood Of The Saints

In Revelation 17:5-6 it says "5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 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." In verse 5 the Bible calls Mystery Babylon the mother of Harlots . . . In verse 6 we see Mystery Babylon "Drunken with the blood of the saints." During the Inquisition "From 1200 to 1808, unspeakable tortures and death stalked the Catholic world, with 68 million victims.(5)" During this time period many Bible believing Christians were killed by the Catholics.

In closing, as we look at the location, the unique colors and a history of killing Bible believing Christians we can see that The Roman Catholic Church is Mystery Babylon." 4

But so many countless times and for so many centuries did the Church extend wide open her orifices to accommodate all sizes of evil favors that she, without question, is the Mother of all Harlots; the scum of Fornication; and the filth of the Earth. Not only did she sell her soul to the Devil but in the process she also tortured, maimed, burnt, raped, and killed countless innocent Christians and non-Christians alike, at home and abroad — all in the name of the Almighty Creator!

We have to admire and give grudging credit at her ingenuity and craftiness, being able to seduce and subdue such multitudes for so many centuries. There definitely cannot be a better example in the entire history of humankind than the craftiness of the Evil One in misleading humans through his infallible popes! Their insistence on infallibility reduced hapless humanity into soulless serfs groveling and begging for the mercy of salvation from the Church, the Beast of Revelation. What ingenuity! What cunning! What craftiness! What power!

We have to wonder in great admiration and give Satan the accolades he is due. The Prince of Darkness truly deserves a standing ovation.
