“Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues; for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.” (Revelation 18:4-5)

by Brian Shilhavy

In my last article, I documented how a modern-day interpretation of Biblical prophecy taking into account recent events that have occurred since 2020 and the Great COVID Scam can easily lead one to conclude that the “revived Roman Empire” that many see in the book of Revelation can really only be applied to the United States as “The Great Prostitute” and “Babylon”, which is the object of God’s fierce anger and “last day” judgments against “Babylon”, and “the Beast” which is the financial system. See:

As I write this today, on December 7, 2023, world events are rapidly developing into what many people are referring to as an imminent “doomsday” scenario. These events are unfolding so fast right now, that I just simply do not have time to cover all of them, even though I am staying on top of them.

Here are some of the news items (much of it censored in the U.S. Corporate Media) that have occurred in the past few days that suggest time is short now before major, cataclysmic events erupt:

Israel Lambasts UN Chief For Invoking Article 99 In Rare Move; Pressure Mounts On U.S.

Israel has lashed out at the UN secretary-general for invoking article 99 over the Gaza war. This is the first time in Antonio Guterres’ tenure and in five decades that the article has been invoked. The rare and powerful move allows the UN secy-gen to bring any issue seen as threatening international peace to security council’s attention. It was invoked last in 1971 during the India-Pakistan crisis that led to the birth of Bangladesh. Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said that the tenure of Guterres is “a danger to world peace,” and his letter shows that he backs Hamas. (Source.)

Putin makes rare trip to Middle East to meet with UAE and Saudi leaders

The Russian leader has been bolstering his partnerships with Gulf nations as Moscow faces growing isolation by the West.

Escorted by four fighter jets, Russian President Vladimir Putin has made a rare one-day lightning tour to the Middle East during which he visited Saudi Arabia after a short trip to the United Arab Emirates.

Putin landed on Wednesday in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, which is hosting the United Nations COP28 climate talks. He was escorted to the presidential palace, where he was greeted with a 21-gun salute and a flyby of UAE military jets trailing smoke in the colours of the Russian flag.

The Gulf nation’s President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan called Putin his “dear friend”.

“I am happy to meet you again,” Sheikh Mohammed said. He later issued a statement saying they discussed “the importance of strengthening dialogue and cooperation to ensure stability and progress”.

The Russian leader echoed those sentiments.

“Our relations, largely due to your position, have reached an unprecedentedly high level,” Putin told Sheikh Mohammed. “The UAE is Russia’s main trading partner in the Arab world.”

Putin then jetted off to Riyadh, where he met Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud – their first face-to-face meeting since October 2019.

In introductory remarks shown on Russian television, Putin thanked the crown prince for his invitation, saying he had originally expected MBS to visit Moscow, “but there were changes to plans”.

Their next meeting should take place in Moscow, he said, adding: “Nothing can prevent the development of our friendly relations.”

Putin’s meeting with the Saudi crown prince came after oil prices fell, despite a pledge by OPEC+, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) as well as allies led by Russia, to further reduce output.

However, it was not immediately clear what Putin, who has rarely left Russia since the start of the Ukraine war, intended to raise specifically about oil or geopolitics with the crown prince of the world’s largest crude exporter.

On Thursday, Putin will host the Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in Moscow. Following that, the UAE will welcome Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Friday and Saturday.

Putin’s rare trip to the region is his first since July 2022, when he met Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Iran.

The Russian leader has made few international trips after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for him in March, accusing him of deporting Ukrainian children.

Neither the UAE nor Saudi Arabia have signed the ICC’s founding treaty, and are not obligated to arrest him if he enters their territories. (Full article.)

US Officials Accuse Biden Admin Of Downplaying Attacks From Iran-Backed Houthis

Some US officials are criticizing the Biden administration for deliberately downplaying the threat from Yemen’s Houthis on US naval forces, Politico reported Tuesday. The criticism follows an attack on Sunday on several commercial vessels in the Red Sea, which forced a US Navy warship to scramble to respond.

The Yemeni resistance movement launched missiles and drones against three separate commercial vessels. The USS Carney fired back, taking down three unmanned aerial drones. It is unclear whether the US Navy ship was also a target of the attack or was simply coming to the aid of the commercial vessels.

Defense Department and Biden administration officials, including national security adviser Jake Sullivan, have said the US “cannot assess” whether the USS Carney was the target of the attacks.

After previous Houthi drone and missile attacks on commercial shipping vessels, the Pentagon said officials did not believe the group was targeting the warships.

But four other officials with knowledge of the discussions said in interviews with Politico that Biden administration officials are playing down the threat to avoid an escalation amid Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza.

The Houthis have made clear it is targeting commercial ships with ties to Israel, and has launched missiles toward the Israeli port city of Eilat in support of the Palestinians. (Full article.)

Israel and the U.S. Zionists are quickly losing the (dis)information war, and are now paying “influencers” on social media to promote Israel, or to take down content that criticizes Israel.

As far as our “Beast” financial system, I am honestly very surprised it has not collapsed yet, as U.S. Banks are bleeding capital at a rate even worse than earlier this year when several banks, mostly tied to Silicon Valley, collapsed.

The stock market continues to chug along even as the price of oil keeps falling, and the value of Gold is increasing. This is because, as I have said repeatedly in the past, the U.S. Stock Market has become a Casino without much difference than the large Casinos in Vegas, betting money that does not even really exist, in the largest Ponzi scheme the world has probably ever seen.

‘Is this a stock market, or a casino?’ New 4X leverage S&P 500 ETN met with caution

An exchange-traded product that allows investors to place massively leveraged bets on the S&P 500 launched on Tuesday, according to a news release from the sponsor, Bank of Montreal.

It is called the MAX S&P 500 4X Leveraged Exchange Traded Note XXXX, and it will offer investors daily returns four times that of the S&P 500 Total Return Index. The fund’s sponsor, Max ETNs, already offers four other leveraged ETNs offering 3X exposure to the airline and auto industries.

The ETN started trading Tuesday on NYSE Arca using the ticker “XXXX.”

Sponsors of the product heralded it as an “innovative tool” for investors.

“With the launch of these 4X leveraged ETNs, we continue to foster a diversified and dynamic investment landscape,” said Adam Stempel, managing director of BMO Capital Markets, in a news release. “As investors seek strategies to navigate evolving market conditions, we provide access to innovative tools designed to meet their various needs.”

Others were quick to express surprise that a product like this would be allowed after two 4X leveraged products proposed by ForceShares were ultimately blocked by the Securities and Exchange Commission back in 2017.

Although the SEC initially approved a rule change that would allow 4X leveraged ETFs, the agency eventually decided to reconsider, according to a report from Barron’s.

One thing to keep in mind: XXXX isn’t an ETF, it is an ETN, which technically makes it more similar to a debt instrument than a stock. Todd Sohn, ETF analyst at Strategas Securities, told ETF.com that this could have allowed XXXX to circumvent the SEC’s rules regarding leveraged ETFs. Representatives for the SEC and BMO didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment from MarketWatch.

In the ETN’s prospectus, BMO emphasized that the product is designed for short-term trading by sophisticated investors.

“The notes are riskier than securities that have intermediate- or long-term investment objectives, and aren’t be suitable for investors who plan to hold them for a period other than one day or who have a ‘buy and hold’ strategy,” the prospectus said.

“Investors should actively and continuously monitor their investments in the notes, even intraday. It is possible that you will suffer significant losses in the notes even if the long-term performance of the Index is positive,” the prospectus said. “You should proceed with extreme caution in considering an investment in the notes.”

Back in 2017, Joe Saluzzi, a partner at institutional broker Themis Trading, spoke to Barron’s about the prospect of 4x leveraged ETFs.

“At some point, the SEC has to come in and say, ‘Enough is enough.’ This is a stock market, not a casino,” he said at the time.

During a phone interview with MarketWatch on Tuesday, Saluzzi said his comment from six years ago still applied.

“If you’re going to go to 3x, 4x, why not go to 10x? Why not go to 100x? What are we doing here? Are we investing, or are we gambling? Is this a stock market, or a casino?” Saluzzi said.

After decades on Wall Street, Saluzzi is wary of products that appear to subvert the intended purpose of the stock market as a vehicle for companies to raise capital and instead make it look like a casino designed to separate unsophisticated investors from their hard-earned money. (Full article.)

As I wrote in my last article, this criminal financial system is probably the main “Beast” discussed in Revelation, with the second “Beast” that gives it a voice being “Big Tech” today.

And one of the events that could bring down this entire criminal enterprise is a “Cyber Attack”, something that is starting to be discussed again in the Alternative Media.

The WEF “Cyber Attack” Scenario: Another Crisis “Much Worse Than COVID”, Paralysis of Power Supply, Communications, Transportation
by Michel Chossudovsky

The World Economic Forum (WEF) which represents the Western financial elites, played a key role in the launching of the March 11, 2020 corona lockdown, which was conducive to a worldwide process of economic and social chaos. It also played a key role in the launching of the Covid-19 vaccine in November 2020.

And now they are “promising” us a crisis which is “much worse than Covid”.

Over the last three years the deliberate triggering of  chaos has become part of a broad and complex agenda: the war in Ukraine, the hike in energy prices, the triggering of bankruptcies, the collapse of economic activity, widespread poverty, famine and despair.

In recent developments, Washington has endorsed Israel’s genocide directed against the People of Palestine, coupled with an unfolding US-NATO-Israel military agenda against the broader Middle East.

Cyber-Attacks

The article below focusses on the imminent dangers of cyber warfare, which have already been announced by the World Economic Forum (WEF).

In 2021, the WEF conducted a simulation of cyber attacks involving a scenario of Paralysis of the Power Supply, Communications, Transportation, The Internet. 

Klaus Schwab intimated in no uncertain terms based on “a simulated scenario” that a cyber-attack:

“Could bring a complete halt to the power supply, transportation, hospital services, our society as a whole …

The COVID-19 crisis would be seen in this respect as a small disturbance in comparison to a major cyberattack.” (emphasis added)

What does Schwab have up his sleeve?

A “Cyber Terrorist Attack” conducive to unprecedented disruptions? Is this something that we should take seriously? (Full article.)

In my last article I showed how based on current events, the only country that makes sense as “The Great Harlot” or “Babylon” as the leader over all other geopolitical nations in the world today as described in Revelation in the Bible, is the United States of America, the “revived Roman Empire.”

But historically, many Bible commentators writing about Revelation, especially in the late 1800s during the “Reformation” period in Europe, equated “Babylon” and the “Harlot” in Revelation to a religious force, namely “Christianity”, Roman Christianity and the “Roman Catholic Church” led by “The Pope.”

However, looking at the vast geopolitical and religious landscape as it exists here today at the end of 2023, Italy and the Pope really are not all that significant in world events today, as they were during the Reformation period.

Instead, the most powerful Christian Country in the world today is undoubtedly the United States, and the most powerful religious force in Christianity is American Christianity, especially Zionism.

Therefore, it makes much more sense today to see “Babylon” and “The Harlot” as being the American Corporate Church.

But I just identified “Babylon” and “The Harlot” in Revelation as probably referring to the United States in my last article. Am I now changing my opinion about this?

No, because the U.S. Government and the Christian Religion in the U.S. today are inseparable, as one cannot exist without the other. They are two halves of the same demonic identity, “Babylon” and “The Harlot”.

I know that many Christians who read our articles will protest to me calling the United States a “Christian Country”, as they use such terms as “true Christians” or “real Christians” to try and separate themselves from all the various Christian sects and denominations that exist in the U.S. today.

But the English word “Christian” is used and applied to all religions that claim to be founded by Jesus Christ and written about in the Bible. This includes Catholics, Protestants, Mormons, and Evangelicals, along with many others.

The United States is a Christian country. It is not a Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, or Hindu country, even though all of these religious groups are also found in the U.S.

All of the presidents “elected” in the U.S. have identified as Christians, although for a couple of them their religious affiliation is unknown, probably because they knew the public would never support a non-Christian president.

Without the help and participation of American Christians, the U.S. financial system would quickly crash.

The two biggest drivers of the U.S. financial system are the military, and the medical system.

It is well-known that a majority of the U.S. military force are from the South, and the “Bible Belt,” especially Texas. Most of the Christian Churches these military members come from will proudly display the American flag on their pulpits, right next to other images like the cross.

American Christianity fully supports the U.S. Military Industrial Complex, and the U.S. military would quickly fall apart if American Christians all of a sudden started teaching that war is wrong, and that serving the Satanic American government is morally wrong.

Likewise, American Christianity fully supports the demonic medical system, and you will find many medical doctors and other medical professionals in pretty much every Christian Church in the U.S. today, where their professions are held in high regard.

Typically, the most powerful and influential members of most American Churches today are not the Pastor or Priest, but doctors and lawyers who usually serve as “elders” and “deacons” and control the finances of the their church.

The Great COVID Scam never would have been able to lock down the country and mandate COVID shots if American Christians had taken a stand and told the government that they were not going to comply.

But we all know that never happened, and never will happen, because the people running the government in the U.S. are all mostly Christians sitting in pews of those same churches every Sunday, where the medical system is held in high regard.

And yet, if these American Christians would follow the teachings of Jesus and the Bible, they would utterly reject modern medicine, which is rooted in Satanism, and develop their own “healthcare” system that relied on healing from God, rather than Satan. See:

The Satanic Roots to Modern Medicine – The Mark of the Beast?

This worship of the Satanic medical system and their medicines, is one reason why Babylon/The Harlot is going to be judged, according to Revelation:

The light of a lamp will shine in you no more, and the voice of bridegroom and bride will be heard in you no more, for your merchants were the great ones of the earth, and all nations were deceived by your sorcery. And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on earth. (Revelation 18:23-24)

The English word “sorcery” in this verse is pharmakeia in Greek, the original language Revelation was written in, from which we get words like pharmacy, pharmaceutical products, etc., and would be more accurately translated into English as “medicines” or “pharmaceutical products.”

I have also previously reported that it is the American Church that supports Child Trafficking in the U.S., receiving government funding to kidnap other parents’ children through the government-funded Foster Care and Adoption programs.

If American Churches decided to stop collecting money from the U.S. Government to foster and adopt other people’s children, and only took care of children who were really orphans with no parents, and without the help of Government funding, but taking care of them instead through their own nonprofit corporate church, the entire Satanic Foster Care and Adoption Government programs would utterly collapse.

But instead, American Christianity has participated in the same sins, and has made a fortune off the Beast financial system in the process.

I have already published this in previous articles, but it bears repeating here again to drive home this truth:

Corporate Christianity is a $TRILLION market, employing millions of people, and to dare to oppose Zionism and not support Israel is to potentially lose your career and source of income, and be ridiculed by the Christian Community.

A study conducted in 2016 estimated that religion in America, which is primarily Zionist Christianity, was “worth $1.2 trillion, more than the combined revenue of the top 10 technology companies in the country, including Apple, Amazon, and Google.” (Source.)

“MinistryWatch” listed the “100 largest Christian ministries in the U.S.” in 2020. (Source.)

Just these 100 businesses alone total over $23 billion:  $23,844,696,705.

Three of these top 5 Christian businesses are universities where Zionism is taught, with each school taking in over $1 billion in revenue each year. When you consider all the Zionist Christian publishing companies producing news, films, TV, books and educational materials, as well as Christian “Pastors” who graduated from these Zionist schools preaching Zionism from the pulpit every week, it is easy to see how the Zionist propaganda infiltrates and saturates American culture and Conservative Right-wing politics.

The leaders at the top of this industry are clearly Freemasons, and if they are successful in destroying the current Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, and replacing it with a Masonic “Jewish” Temple, you can be sure all the Zionist Christians will shout for joy in their service to Satan.

So, since American Christianity has not taken a stand against Lady Liberty, the head demon over the U.S., by refusing to cooperate with the U.S. Government in their “harlotries”  which would have already collapsed the U.S. economy, they will be the recipients of the same judgments brought upon the United States and Lady Liberty, where the Beast financial system will be destroyed.

Here is what Revelation chapter 18 says:

After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor.

With a mighty voice he shouted: “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird. For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”

Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes. Give back to her as she has given; pay her back double for what she has done. Mix her a double portion from her own cup. Give her as much torture and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, “I sit as queen; I am not a widow, and I will never mourn.’

Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her burning, they will weep and mourn over her. Terrified at her torment, they will stand far off and cry: “‘Woe! Woe, O great city, O Babylon, city of power! In one hour your doom has come!’ The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes any more.”

They will say, ‘The fruit you longed for is gone from you. All your riches and splendor have vanished, never to be recovered.’

The merchants who sold these things and gained their wealth from her will stand far off, terrified at her torment. They will weep and mourn and cry out: “‘Woe! Woe, O great city, dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet, and glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls! In one hour such great wealth has been brought to ruin!’

When they see the smoke of her burning, they will exclaim, ‘Was there ever a city like this great city?’ They will throw dust on their heads, and with weeping and mourning cry out: “‘Woe! Woe, O great city, where all who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth! In one hour she has been brought to ruin! Rejoice over her, O heaven! Rejoice, saints and apostles and prophets! God has judged her for the way she treated you.’

Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, and said: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be thrown down, never to be found again. The music of harpists and musicians, flute players and trumpeters, will never be heard in you again. No workman of any trade will ever be found in you again. The sound of a millstone will never be heard in you again. The light of a lamp will never shine in you again. The voice of bridegroom and bride will never be heard in you again.

Your merchants were the world’s great men. By your magic spell (pharmaceutical products) all the nations were led astray. In her was found the blood of prophets and of the saints, and of all who have been killed on the earth.”

So who are “God’s people” who are being directed here to “come out” of Babylon, the U.S. Government and American Christianity?

They are not “the Jews” that the Zionist Cult wants us to believe, nor any other ethnic group or race of people.

They are the remnant believers, the spiritual “seed” of Abraham who have been spiritually reborn into the only physical descendant of Abraham that truly matters, Jesus Christ. See:

Who are the Children of Abraham?

In Revelation Chapter 12, the remnant believers are referred to as a “woman,” a woman who opposes the Great Harlot. They are the Old Testament believers who received the promise of Abraham through Christ, and they are also the New Testament believers, sometimes referred to as the “Bride of Christ.”

These believers are the true spiritual “seed” of Abraham, and the Godly spiritual seed that came from Eve in Genesis 3. The word for this spiritual “seed” in the original Greek language of the New Testament is “sperma“, which can represent a literal seed from a plant, or a human physical seed represented by the male “sperm.”

This word also appears in Revelation chapter 12:

A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.

Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads. His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth.

The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child the moment it was born.

She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne.

The woman fled into the desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.

And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven.

The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.

Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.”

When the dragon saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the desert, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time, out of the serpent’s reach.

Then from his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep her away with the torrent. But the earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his mouth.

Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to make war against the rest of her offspring—those who obey God’s commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus. (Revelation 12)

I highlighted the word “woman” which represents the true believers, those of the spiritual seed of Abraham. The word highlighted in red, “offspring” is “sperma” in the Greek.

The male child is Jesus Christ, who Satan tried to destroy at his birth, with the slaughter of children in Bethlehem as recorded in the Gospels.

Most commentators of the past have identified the “woman” in this passage as “the Church”, mainly the Reformed Church that was rescued from the Pope and the Catholic church during the years of the Reformation.

The modern-day commentaries that follow dispensationalism with the Zionist view will claim that this woman is Israel.

But I believe they are both wrong. The use of the Greek term “sperma” in the last verse of this chapter is better interpreted, in my opinion, as the spiritually born believers in Jesus Christ, in fulfillment to the promises given to Abraham in Genesis.

If I am correct, then disaster and judgment are imminent against the United States of America and the American Church, the “Great Harlot” and “Babylon” which are about to fall.

So then the voice from Heaven in Revelation 18 which says: “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes“, is not a warning to get out of the United States, it is a warning to get out of American Christianity, and stop participating in her sins to avoid the “plagues” that are coming.

Many of those who did not get out of the American Churches during COVID and obeyed their Church leaders and took the COVID bioweapon shots have already received the first round of “plagues.”

You have been warned.
