I agree! Regarding idolatries, we could start with that 82ft pagan obelisk that was brought over from Hierapolis Egypt by Caligula in 37 AD. And this pagan obelisk is sitting right in the entrance to what is supposed to be (according to the RCC) the true church? By this, she is advertising who she really is, pagan! But people don't give this a second thought. She's proclaiming to be the true church and is hiding right out in plain sight as a counterfeit pagan entity. And that's just for starters. With just a cursory look at her beliefs and practices, it becomes immediately clear that she is not the church. Yet, she has over 1.2 billion followers.

The verse you present was to support those keeping the Sabbaths and New Moons, that are Eternal, and will be in the New Heaven and Earth
Isaiah 66:22-23KJV
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
Isaiah 66:22-23KJV
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
Stick to the scriptures. The information contained within Revelation, specifically chapter 17 & 18 identify who the woman is and she is definitely not a literal woman by any sense. I presented scriptures that speak of her as a city, which you continue to ignore. You have to stick to the interpretation of scripture.
Babylon is is not a literal mother, as she has already been identified as a city, which you continue to ignore. But she is figuratively the mother of all harlots, meaning that she is the crème de la crème of all pagan religious systems. The kings and inhabitants of the earth are and in the future, will be committing spiritual adultery with her, i.e. they will be partaking in her pagan practices and beliefs which stemmed from the pagan religions of Babylon. Jesus is sprinkled in with her teachings to grab the religious.
Spiritual adultery = porneuó - (figuratively) to be unfaithful to Christ, while posing as His true follower.

Jerusalem's Levitical Priesthood arrayed In Purple, Scarlet, Gold, And Precious Stones
Revelation 17:4KJV
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:
Exodus 28:15-20KJV
15 And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.
16 Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.
17 And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.
18 And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third row a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.
20 And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.
(Jerusalem) Is That Great City
Revelation 17:18KJV
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
Revelation 11:8KJV
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
(Jerusalem) is the seven hilled city, where the woman sits, not Rome as many falsely claim.
Revelation 17:9KJV
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
List of cities claimed to be built on seven hills - Wikipedia
Jerusalem, Israel: Jerusalem's seven hills are Mount Scopus, Mount Olivet and the Mount of Corruption (all three are peaks in a mountain ridge that lies east of the Old City), Mount Ophel, the original Mount Zion, the New Mount Zion and the hill on which the Antonia Fortress was built.
The Roman Empire didnt exist to be guilty of the Prophets blood seen below, Jerusalem did.
Revelation 18:24KJV
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
Matthew 23:29-37KJV
29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

So you have God caring form the woman out in the wilderness during the last 3 1/2 years, who is Israel. And you have God destroying her in chapter 17 & 18.
You have no idea of what you are talking about and should not be teach such things.
Jerusalem does not sit on seven hills, nor was she that city that ruled over the kings of the earth.
I wish you people would stick to what the scriptures say instead of forcing square blocks through round holes!
The woman of chapter 12 is not the same woman who rides the beast of chapter 17 & 18.
The purple and scarlet is not the colors of the priesthood, but are the exact colors worn by the bishops and cardinals of the RCC.
Now I have to put you back on ignore and that because of these erroneous teachings, which is why I had you on ignore in the first palce.

1.) The woman in the wilderness Rev 12:6, Micah 7:14-17 is representative of the 144,000 remnant Jews that will be saved, sealed, and added to the Church on earth during the tribulation, and yes the Lord will feed them in the wilderness Manna from heaven, as in the days of coming out of Egypt, as the world watches 
Only 1/3 of Israels Jews will be saved, 2/3 will be cut off and die Zechariah 13:8-9
2.) Yes Jerusalem sits upon seven hills/mountains just as Rome (Fact)
3.) Yes the Levitical Priest wore purple, scarlet, gold, and precious stones in the Ephod, are Gods words lying below?
Exodus 28:15-20KJV
15 And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.

“The sting of death is sin;
and the strength of sin is the law. “
“For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held;
that we should serve in newness of spirit,
and not in the oldness of the letter.”
Romans 7:5-6 KJV
if you command a sinner to not sin , it’s going to provoke them to sin , and sin brings death because of the very first commandment of God . Before God gave the commandment to Adam and Eve they were alive .
When God gave them the commandment , “ you must not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil , for when you do you will surely die “
Satan came behind him and said , “ you will not die , the fruit will make you as gods” when they are the fruit the commandment left to
Mankind was only “ you will surely die “ because they had transgressed
Satan used the commandment meant to keep them safe from death , to put them to death .
“But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.”
Romans 7:8-11 KJV
Gods law from the beginning about the fruit was always meant to keep
Man alive , then Moses law was about life and blessing and continuance of the curse if they rejected it.
Satan still uses the law against sinners the same way today . The law states clearly sinners must surely die , so if Satan can tempt us to sin , the law still condemns us by the letter we are now condemned or as Paul says “ held in death when we were under the law “
because the wages of sin is death , and the operation of sin works by the law against a person God has provided salvation for sinners through baptism into death ( that sentence of death upon all sinners )
“Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.”
Romans 6:3-4, 6-7 KJV
To be free of sin we need a law that’s for us and not against us that’s the gospel the law of the spirit of life
and the strength of sin is the law. “
“For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held;
that we should serve in newness of spirit,

No, the mark of the beast was written about in daniel: The abomination that causeth desolation is the mark of the beast. Its not a chip, its not law, its not anything like that. Nimrod had the mark of the beast for instance. Cain had the mark of the beast as well.
The Mark of the beast is not a number either. The Mark of the beast is a mark of baptism into nature, where the unholy spirit of a tare goes through a negative metamorphosis to the point that he or she has become a witch or wizard.
Put simply, the way we are supposed to meditate on the WORD of GOD, and assimilate HIS WORD into our Spirit Being, is what they do but with unholy teachings. Only a tare can receive the mark of the beast. Only a tare can become a witch or wizard. No child of the kingdom can ever get the mark of the beast.

According to the Lord, the abomination will be an idolatrous image that will be set up in the holy place within the temple. The mark on the other hand, will go either on the hand or forehead of the individual and without it no one will be able to buy or sell.
Cain never had the mark of the beast, as their no scripture to support this. God just put a mark upon him. The mark will be specifically for the last days. We already have the technology as the literal fulfillment of the coming mark as a means of buying and selling.
"Here is a call for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and that number is 666."
Once again, scripture would disagree with you in that, it is indeed a number as you can plainly see from the verse above.
You should be teaching these things, because they are false.
