Judgment of the great whore

By: Jo  Smith****January 2, 2017

Revelation 17King James Version (KJV)

17 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

3 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.

4 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:

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.

Today I am going to pick up with a follow up on the last two messages and how the FIRE Spirit of God brings this evil harlot to her destruction.  I will show you who she is and how she is finally destroyed.

Notice in verse one, it shows that she sits on MANY WATERS.  Waters is said to be peoples, nation, kindreds  and tongues.  So it is over the entire world.  Now what could be over the entire world, from the beginning to the end?   Nothing but Adam’s evil kingdom.

Jesus told us in Mat. 23 that JERUSALEM is guilty of all the righteous blood shed on earth, beginning with the murder of ABEL.  So, this proves that this harlot ‘jerusalem’ existed in the days of Adam, Cain and Abel.  Cain had to be part of this mystery harlot, for he it is that murdered or shed the blood of Abel.

Jesus said, ‘Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that KILLEST the prophets and all that are sent unto you.’  So He identified right here who this whore is.  But do not think he is speaking of the natural city in the middle East.  He is speaking of a false religious system that began with Adam.  Adam is Satan.  Adam said I am god.  Worship me.   That spirit still exists today and is on most folks, specially those who play at religion.

Know that God’s word, the things of God, are about religion;  They are about Jesus, salvation and satan, the enemy of the soul.  Unless you know what satan is, how are you going to get the victory over him?  Unless you come to see that it is your own human spirit, coming from that first man, Adam. This is why we must be ‘born again’… in  order to get rid of old man Adam and become a new man in Christ Jesus.

So when you hear people trying to interpret the Word of God in the natural world, about natural nations and such, you will not find the truth.  Only when you can see it is about RELIGION, the things of the spirit will you begin to see truth.

So this evil ‘woman’ or nation or church began with the very first man, Adam.  He was lifted up in pride over his beauty and tried to set himself up as God to be worshiped as God.  Eze     28.   You might say well that was not Adam.  Then find out who is the man that God created perfect, put him into Eden and then cast him out of Eden for his sin?  If it is not Adam, pray tell where is anyone else in Scripture that fits this description.  I tell you, there is no other; no angel, no one.  It is old Adam, that old serpent.  If not, why did Jesus tell the pharisees of his day, descendants from  Adam and Seth, that they are serpents?  Also John the Baptist identified this group as serpents.

This is laying a lot of groundwork, but without it, you cannot see who this harlot city  is.  It is nothing but false religion from  Adam to the end of time.  It has been manifested in many things, but primarily in that old LAW SYSTEM, UNDER MOSES, and now in the seven churches.  Yes, this is where that harlot city is mostly noted to be.   In Exodus we are given the perfect description of this harlot city.  It speaks over and over of her being clothed in scarlet, silk, blue, purple, great stones, etc.  This is described nowhere else except that tabernacle built by the Israelites in the wilderness.

It comes to its full head under that Law head, under Moses.  That is the fourth kingdom told about in Daniel.   Those ten commandments are those ten horns, on this OT Whore.

In Isa 47 she says, I sit a queen, I will not be a widow neither will I see the lose of children.  She said, I am and no one else.  She says the very same words in Revelation 18.  This conceited and proud  kingdom of Adam/satan sees herself as the only important one.  She sees herself as god.  But we shall see that God has set a day and way for this evil kingdom to be destroyed forever.  No more will this wicked spirit deceive the world and destroy souls.

Verse 2.. notice that the kings of this entire earth have committed fornication with this whore.  So it is not any natural woman.  It is a spirit of whordoms against God.  Mainly this is shown in the keeping of HOLIDAYS.  This mess has traveled all the way from Adam to this very day.  All who partake of these holidays are committing spiritual fornication against God.  You are indeed worshiping this devil, satan, serpent, Adam.

See that verse 6 proves this is the same one that Jesus identified in Mat 23, as being guilty of all the shed blood on this earth.  So it has to be the kingdom of Adam/satan.  See that this evil harlot murdered Abel, then the NT saints of God.  They murdered Jesus and all his martyrs. 

So then we see that this harlot spirit moved down into the NT age and continued to murder the saints of God.  Now who did this?  Of course, false religion, headquartered in the Catholic church.  It moved from Law in Jerusalem, to church in Rome.  But see that all the others also took part in this harlot’s evil system and played the harlot against God, with all her many idols.

Revelation 18King James Version (KJV)

18 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

One of the main clues to the identification of this Babylon is the fact of her MERCHANDIZING.  God forbids this buying and selling of his things.  So this is the mark of that beast.  See that she is a cage filled with unclean and hateful birds, or spirits.  All nations took part in her fornication.  But see that she fell twice.  First when the OT law system was taken down.  Then it revived the same old false religion in those seven churches.

Those seven churches are NOT the true Church of Jesus Christ.  The ‘seat’ of satan is in those churches, so it is again Satan’s kingdom manifest in false religion.  This is the very reason all their doctrine is WRONG.  They have no truth.  They do not make true Children of God.  They bring forth dead souls, still caught up in their IDOLS.  The identifying spirit is they cannot let their idols alone.  As old Israel did, so do these church folks….cling to their idols while pretending to be serving God.

The people who do know their God, the true God, will hear and heed this:…..4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

We heard the call, come out of her that you do not her sins and receive of her plagues.   What Plagues?  Those the saints of God, with the Spirit of Fire will bring on her and destroy her.

Now when you cannot and will not hear and obey this call to come out of that harlot church system, you will be destroyed with her, for you are part of her.  This is why you cannot depart from your sins and idol holidays.  You love that old wicked spirit, Satan or Adam. 

Here is how she will be destroyed:….8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

See that God calls for a certain group to go and burn her and destroy her.  So who is this group?  Read Psalm 149 and Revelation 11.  It is the people who are given the baptism of FIRE.  This Fire comes out of their mouth, or words, and burns this old harlot and destroys her.  That is where you are headed when you stay in this harlot church system.  It makes no difference which church you are in…..they are all this same whore….they all worship their idols….they all teach lies and hate God’s pure truth.

God hated that OT Law system and destroyed it.  He hates this old church system, for they are the same and He is going to finally destroy this old evil false religion system forever and cast it into the lake of fire.

11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

These merchants does not mean merchants of goods such as food and cloths.  It is speaking of in the religious system.  Those who must receive pay or give pay for the word of God to be taught to them.  Or anything to do with paying for religious stuff.  When God finishes coming against this whore, no one will buy or sell in a religious capacity again.

The things of God are FREE.  Freely you have received, freely give.  But very few church folks have this GIVING SPIRIT.  They all have a ‘give to me’ lust, as did old Adam and all his fake ministers.

If you read the list of things they bought and sold, it is speaking exclusively  of the things they used in their sacrifices under the old law system.  This is carried over into the modern church system…..so much spent on fancy buildings, which God hates.

And finally full proof that this is the same old murdering Jerusalem spoken of in  Mat 23 and which began in Eden:  

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

See that she is guilty of  all the shed blood on earth.   So it can be nothing except that old kingdom of Satan/Adam.
