Maybe I should not be trying to confuse you with the facts?
>>>Furthermore this is not in the bible as such - you might think about Babylon being an economic/an earthly system. as it was for you to think along other lines because you are WAY off saying Israel/Jerusalem is Babylon. Pray for Jerusalem, don't condemn her with your words. That's Christianity too.<<<
Jerusalem was Babylon the Great. Otherwise, Christ has to send a whole new batch of prophets and apostles for the "modern" Babylon the Great to kill. Is that what you want?
Please read the following very, very carefully before you throw any more of your nasty, unchristian-like judgements at me:
This is the blood on Babylon the Great’s hands.
"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." (Rev 17:6, Babylon)
"And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth." (Rev 18:24, Babylon)
“Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.” (Rev 18:20, Babylon)
This was the blood on Jerusalem’s hands:
"Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not!" (Luk 13:33-34, Jerusalem)
". . . I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute: That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation; From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation." (Luke 11:49-51, Jerusalem)
Notice any similarities? There is only one explanation for the striking similarities: Jerusalem was Babylon the Great.
>>>"I take it as you are not Christian but just 'studying' whatever you may. There's a saying...speak the truth and shame the devil....it cleans the air.<<<
Your limited ability to prove from the Bible, what you claim is in the Bible, leads me to believe you are Christian in name only. You certainly are quick to judge someone who doesn't possess your brand of indoctrination.

Not to be rude but I didn’t read your post. I have no interest in anyone who thinks Jerusalem is Babylon - they are far too off track for anyone to bring back. And my time is most precious.
