It sounds like an explanation Vanderhoven7, but remember Revelation was written about 81 - 96 EC .... and Jerusalem destruction was 70 EC . I think Revelation is a masterpiece as a literary piece... just saying.

“Bablyon the Great has Fallen”
by lastmanstanding inwhat have you not heard lately?.
.... no discussion on “babylon’s fall”.
by 1919 it was apparent that jehovah had passed judgment on christendom—and indeed on all false religion.

Let's play hard ball.... let's say a new light appears !
1 Cor 5:11 ...."you must not associate with somebody with claims to be a brother or a sister....but is a sinner, etc etc."
So if somebody claims NOT to be a sister o brother anymore.... let's NOT shun that person! That person is like a worldly person again and we don't shun them, we just use common sense. Problem solved.

Yea, yea....but remember, as it said in Revelation, "kings are gonna cry about Babylon's destruction". That means that even the WT doesn't have the correct interpretation because they say that all the governments are going to destroy religion. However if the Borg are serious about not ' going more than the things that are written ', and about abandoning the types and antitypes, they should leave the Babylon the Great teaching sleep.

Could the Ebola virus be the new weapon of Jihadist extremists ? , against the Western Alliance ?
by smiddy inwe all know too well the barbaric atrocities the jihadist muslim extremists go , to reign their brand of terror in the west to instill fear amongst the population , with limited affect so far.. one of their means has been the use of willing suicide bombers in different parts of the world to cause fear.generally with limited casualties.. what if they decide to try and use the ebola virus with willing people ready to infect themselves and spread it internationally.
the ebola virus can cause dozens , hundreds , thousands , untold numbers of deaths in many parts of the world.. .
my concern now , and i think every nation should be concerned about this is , what if they try to deliberately send people into ebola infected areas , in africa and then have them fly out to whatever their home destination might be , spreading the disease far and wide in europe , america , the united kingdom , australia etc.etc.. i think these muslim extremists will use any means to bring down western society , any means at their disposal ,regardless of the cost.. what do you think .. smiddy.

CNN reports : Ebola outbreak in Congo breaks record for confirmed cases in a single day, 27 cases. I mean in the developed world we are pretty safe but in that forsaken country things are getting out of control. Lots of fighting in that place. However I don't think could be weaponized, it's too dangerous. People that try to do that could almost certainly died in the process.

Its been 2000 years now since Jesus Christianity was Established and now today we have 40000 + Christian sects ?
by smiddy3 inemperor constantine might have got the message 17 centuries ago but surely god must by now realize that the mission has failed .?.
surely he should as he has on past experience in the old testament now approach a world leader of either the usa ,england ,russia ,china ,or the united nations or even israel and make his judgement`s known .?.
why has he been so quiet all of these years ?

Yes, but at the the end if somebody says "I am Christian", he believes in Christ , you couldn't deny the power of Mathew, Luke, Mark and John to give a message after all those years. I mean Christians have more in common that they could think.

Iran vs. Israel - could it be the beginning of Armageddon?
by tartarus ini have recently read in the news that an attack on iran is planned sometime after the olympics in beijing.
here's a bit of background to it:.
when irans fledgling democracy was overthrown with support of cia the shah of iran was giving israel free oil thru a pipeline that still runs thru saudi arabia to a refinery in the israeli city of haifa.

Just now in CNN "Trump administration anounces all countries importing Iranian oil will be subject to US sanctions, starting May the 2th."
iran isn't gonna be able to sell a drop of oil and this...... means another Middle East war because Iranians are gonna shut down the Ormuz Straits and from that down to hell.
Crazy Iranians, should stop building all those missiles............. I don't want to pay $ 7 for a gallon of gas.

New Book: Pure Worship of Jehovah—Restored At Last!
by Afterburn init is a new book, now available on their website in pdf, and it is basically an update to survival—into a new earth!
(1984), the book that convinced me to get baptized at age 12.. i'm not going to review the entire book here.. because matthew 28:18-20 specifies baptizing as part of the great commission, and because hebrews 6:1-2 lists the teaching on baptisms as among the primary doctrine about the christ, i intend to focus on the portion of the new publication that deals with baptism.. in chapter 16, on pages 178 and 179, paragraph 17 states:.
17 to survive the coming destruction, individuals need to prove their faith now.

Have you guys ever think that the treatment of the Catholic Church and the sexual abuse by the governments is more or less like the so called 'attack on Babylon the Great'?.
I mean, this dance of millions is gonna end with this guys 'devastated and naked', bankrupt. They should pay for their sins of course, but this is not gonna end well for religion, including the Borg.
Maybe this is the reason why in Revelation, kings wept for Babylon's demise.
