Who is the Harlot AND Her Daughters?

The only way I see this fitting is if the Jews submit to Islam and right now, that is not the case. Or they submit to the anti-christ...?

Yet, Revelation 18:4 tells us this as well:

“‘Come out of her, my people,’[b]
so that you will not share in her sins,
so that you will not receive any of her plagues;
5 for her sins are piled up to heaven,
and God has remembered her crimes.
6 Give back to her as she has given;
pay her back double for what she has done.
Pour her a double portion from her own cup.
7 Give her as much torment and grief
as the glory and luxury she gave herself.
In her heart she boasts,
‘I sit enthroned as queen.
I am not a widow;[c]
I will never mourn.’
8 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.

You site one that does not!

There are NONE!

I’m not going to start copying lists for you!

[G Larry]

“guilty”?

At least I am correct!

Site one that proves me wrong.

[Syncro]

Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians

Assyria=Syria, Iran, Benghazi, Obama and Iran supporting Syria with weapons (Obama: Fast and furious Mideast style)

All playing into the hands of prophesy.

The Syncro-nization is phenomonol.

[G Larry]

That ain’t “Rapture”!
That is the Second Coming of Christ.

Rapture was invented in the 1800’s.

Well funny man?

If you’re so certain I’m wrong, you should be able to provide a title.

Would you care to site a Protestant writing on Revelations that doesn’t use it to bash the Catholic Church? I’ve got 20 on my bookshelf.

ROTFL

You said "all", and you put it in caps for added emphasis. And your proof is 20 unnnamed items on a bookshelf?

Name 'em.

It seems that G Larry is saying he has 20 books on his shelf that DO NOT bash the Catholic church. Case closed. (no wonder he won't name them lol)

Too bad that the Bible is so inexcusably unclear on this point that honest, truth-seeking men have been forced to argue about it for centuries!

All protestants do not use Revelation to attack the Catholic Church. Look up the background of Scott Hahn. He’s a fairly clear-cut case. Plus, there are many others, including me.

Also, a rapture of the church before the 2nd coming on earth does not deny the second coming.

I’m thinking their last name is Kardashian.

The beast of Revelation is the United Nations and the harlot is the world empire of false religion. Notice that, at some point, the beast turns on the harlot and devastates her. Hence, the world governments (UN) will unitedly and violently turn on religion.

[Old Sarge]

Your own words: “ALL protestants.” Mighty big tar brush, that one.

[Cronos]

When God occupied the city it is the “Holy City,” but the verse clearly calls it the great city, yet in the same breath tells us it is where our Lord was crucified. So that means as long as ‘Sodom and Egypt’ occupy the the city...it is no longer the Holy City.

good point.

[Cronos]

the british empire is plausible -- a women riding a beast (Britannia)

And looking at the British empire creation of Iraq, Saudi Arabia and "Palestine" and Pakistan....

[Cronos]

interesting -- now evidently you don't remember the days of 2011 when there was at least 12 posts a day against the Church.

FR has been accused of being pro-nonCatholic, but this is interesting that you think it the other way around.

Most of us think it is pro-nonC because if you were to ask any of the standard crew of the non-Cs what they believe in, they'll hide behind "It's none of your business. No bringing personal matters..."

First one need know who this ‘anti-Christ’ literally is. Matthew 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:1-8 This was done NOT because Christ was tempted, but, to tell us who the instead of Christ would by demonstrating his method of operation. Peace, peace, peace, if we worship him, just like he offered Christ, while slightly twisting the Scripture.

Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

8 And prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which *deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

......................

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heaves, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is com down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.”

Now no particular religion or ethnicity were named it said the whole world... Christ said Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be *saved*: (Christianity is about salvation of ones soul/spirit intellect.) but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, ‘Lo, here is Christ,’ or ‘there;’ believe it not.

The first tribulation is the deception of not knowing who the first supernatural being that appears on this earth literally is. What agony to learn that even a Christian, who did not know, had worshiped the devil, that abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel, was believed to be our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Well, actually the "Protestants" are those belonging to the original 3 groups that broke away from the Western Church -- namely Lutherans, Calvinists (Presbyterians, Reformed) and the Anglicans

The other groups broke away from them -- like the 3rd generation of reformatters included the Unitarians (in the 16th century) and the Wesleyans (in the 18th century) and the anabaptists (in the 16th century)

the Baptists broke away from the Anabaptists in the 17th, making them 4th generation reformatters

The fifth generation include the radical reformatters like the Christian Scientists and then the really weird groups like the Seventh Day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons -- arguably, even though the latter 3 came from this 5th generation mileieu they are arguably not Christian

The 6th generation included the pentecostals

And now the 7th are the Word of Faith pentecostals and the Oneness pentecostals (those who deny the Trinity)

only the Lutherans, Presybterians, Reformed and Anglicans are really the "Protestants". All others are simply their own traditions or splits from those 3 traditions

Hey don't forget ‘babylon’ and the Russians, they have roles to play as well.
