Come Out of Babylon

Isaiah 47 prophesies about the fall of Babylon. Rev. 18v. 4 commands God's people to come out of Babylon that they may not share in her sins and receive her plagues. When God wants to pour his wrath on a place, he forces his people out of that place, by his word, or by circumstances. He removed Lot from Sodom before he destroyed it. He put Noah in an ark before destroying the world with a flood. Babylon represents the kingdom of darkness and hypocritical Christian gatherings or churches. There is a true church and a false church. There is a true vine and a false vine - vine of the world.

Rev. 3v. 9 says that members of the synagogue of Satan call themselves Jews but they are not. They call themselves born again Christians but they are not. There is a synagogue of Satan and a synagogue of God. The synagogue of Satan looks like that of God on the outside but inside it is full of demonic force. It is a white washed tomb. The false Christians act like the true ones, but they are wolves in sheep clothing. The synagogue of Satan, which is Babylon, is misled by Jezebel. Jezebel misleads the servants of God into sexual immorality and God says he will punish her together with those who sin with her. The Babylonians, members of the synagogue of Satan, are full of slander based on Rev. 2v. 9. They are busybodies moving to and fro like the devil gossiping against God's people. God commands you to come out of them.

When you come out of them, you do not just go nowhere. 2 Tim. 2v. 22 says that you must flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace with those who call upon the Lord out of pure hearts. You do not follow these virtues with everybody. You do it with the pure in heart. Come out of the impure in heart and join those full of God's purity. 1 Thess. 5v. 22 says you must abstain from all appearance of evil. Keep off all evil synagogues of Satan. Come out of Babylon, and when God pours his wrath there, it shall not touch you. God bless you. Amen.
