Where do you think the lake of fire will be? What nation is the great prostitute?
The lake of fire is associated with hell, Gahenna, and outer darkness. I'm not sure where it is but maybe in the center of the earth. There are lots of different beliefs about hell and the lake of fire, and I'm not convinced about either belief.
There's a lot that can be said about the Great Harlot and Revelation 17. This page is incomplete.
The great prostitute is a contentious argument and I have about 80% of my mind made up on it. I should first mention that some people believe the harlot is "the apostate church" and identify it by the "seven hills" of Rome. The word is not HILLS, the word is "oros" which indicates mountains. Some people believe the harlot is Israel, some the USA, etc. She has several symbols to identify her so she is not just a city. She turns the city into a harlot, and is a harlot herself. She is used interchangeably with a city of seven mountains. (NOT HILLS) Those mountains surround the city of East Jerusalem. At its center of those 7 mountains is Mount Moriah and the Dome of the Rock and al'Aqsa mosque reside or "sit upon" it.
Revelation 17:9-10 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
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:
East Jerusalem doesn't sit on many waters. That's because she also represents a religion, and it's not Judaism or Catholicism. She represents Islam whose radical adherents are scattered across the earth. Islam will become the recipient of the seven vials in an attempt to get Muslim's to repent.
...So he carried me away in the spirit into the
wilderness:
The wilderness is better translated 'the desert.' East Jerusalem or Rome doesn't reside in the desert. Mecca and Medina reside in the deserts of Saudi Arabia.
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.
The world has committed fornication with Saudi Arabia in several ways. We condone their human rights violations because we want their oil. We tolerate Islam because Saudi Arabia is the birthplace of Islam. We've allowed her jihadist sects to spread all over the planet because...we want their oil.
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.
The seven heads and ten horns represent a demonic 10/7 alliance of kings and nations otherwise known as an Islamic Caliphate.
Around the octagonal structure of the Dome of the Rock is a long classical Arabic inscription that says that God has no begotten son, thus denying that Jesus is the Son of God.
Inscriptions on the octagonal structure of the Dome are anti-Christ. They say...
- There is no God but Allah.
- God has no son; He begetteth not.
- God taketh not unto Himself a son.
- God has no associate.
- Muhammad is the messenger of God.
- Allah will preside on Judgment Day.
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 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.
Who murders more Christians today than any other religion? Islam. Islam is bent on killing 'infidels.' And Christians and Jews are their primary targets. However, it appears that the only people they hate more than Christians and Jews are one another. They crucified a man in Saudi Arabia a few days ago.
The Dome of the Rock is on Mount Moriah which is at the geographically center of Jerusalem's seven MOUNTAINS. THIS IS THE ONLY PIECE OF GROUND GOD HAS CLAIMED AS HIS OWN IN THE BIBLE. SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? The harlot represents a large false religion, i.e. ISLAM, (the word GREAT implies large) and worldwide terrorism. 'Sitteth' means
"to occupy or have a fixed abode." This indicates that Islam is the dominate religion that 'OCCUPIES' this 10/7 empire which is an Islamic Caliphate of sorts, headquartered and operated from the Dome of the Rock. Islam wants East Jerusalem to be the headquarters of their worldwide Islamic Caliphate. She is guilty of committing "the abominations of the earth." That would be worldwide Islamic terrorism.
"The Dome of the Rock" complex is an anti-Christ monument that "sits upon" the site of the ruins of two Jewish Temples today called the Temple Mount. Jerusalem is "that great city" of Revelation 17.
The whore is symbolic of a religion and its offspring of jihadist sects that dominates a region as well as commits worldwide abominations. Babylon the Great is no longer a mystery. Islam has given birth to all jihadist.
In Rev. 17:16-18 we read that the beast hates the harlot, makes her desolate and naked, eats her flesh and burns her with fire… "For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose… until the words of God are fulfilled."
This could mean that the anti-Christ kingdom, the Shia sect of Islam, will hate the harlot. This could have something to do with Iran either being burned or Iran nuking Mecca and Medina. They always fight and hate one another anyway and may indicate a nuclear weapon is used.
I don't have this all figured out. Islam gave birth to Islam's jihadist sects. Either Iran gets nuke, or Mecca and/or Medina gets nukes...or maybe both!
Babylon the Great is Islam, and the harlot represents all of her jihadist sects.
Islam, Babylon the Great, the Mother of Jihadist and abominations of the Earth.
