Mystery Babylon is not a Mystery. She is plainly revealed in the Bible.

There is a lot of misinformation and disinformation out there regarding who Mystery Babylon is. Because of this, many believe that Mystery Babylon is something that is still hidden, or is something to be guessed at, like a riddle that needs to be solved.
One reason is because of the word 'Mystery'. Folks tend to think of a Mystery as something that has not been revealed yet, however the opposite is true when it comes to Bible interpretation.
Basically, every time the word 'Mystery' is used in the Bible, that Mystery is revealed. Therefore, there is no need to speculate. Even those that studied their Bibles thousands of years ago knew who Mystery Babylon was. This is because Mystery Babylon has been around since the Garden of Eden.
This simple fact eliminates many false teachings that are out there such as the Vatican or the United States being Mystery Babylon. Obviously, these entities did not exist when Adam and Eve were created.
Just two verses are all we need to get started…
Verse #1: Revelation 18:24 "And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth."
One of the biggest mistakes people make when attempting to interpret verses such as the one above, is to conclude that words like ‘Her’, and ‘Blood’ are symbolic instead of literal. This gives them a license to invent meanings that are simply not there.
Mystery Babylon is a Her, as in a literal Woman and not a Church. The Blood that Mystery Babylon drinks is literal as well. ‘All that were slain’ should be understood as to include those that were slain since the Garden of Eden. Did the Vatican or the United States slay people during the times of Adam and Eve? Of course not. So why entertain such a silly idea?
Who was the first person slain? According to the verse above, Mystery Babylon drank that person’s Blood…
Verse #2: Genesis 4:11 "And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand"
Abel was the first person to be slain. And sure enough, Mystery Babylon was there to receive his Blood. Who is she? Earth... as in Mother Earth.
Earth drinks the Blood. You now have the first half of the Mystery solved.
