**“Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen ; and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every unclean spirit. . . . Go out from her, my people ; that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues” ** – Apocalypse 18:2,4.

Should we be making plans to leave?

romano:
A loose screw? My! My! My!. We certainly have a subtle interpreter of the Bible here.

The Word of God as the word of a fool? It seems to me that someone has just involved themself in blasphemy here.
:whistle::whistle::whistle:
 
:whistle: Did you know that the City of San Fransisco sits on seven hills?:hmmm:

Since “Babylon the Great” is either Imperial Rome in the first century AD, or Jerusalem, also in the first century, or a fusion of the two - the answer is, “no need to” 🙂

When you start a thread you need to have a point. Explain what you mean?

No … I’ll go with Gottle of Geer: this referred to Jerusalem, Rome, or both.

The question reminds me of a time a few years ago when some Jehovah’s Witnesses came to my door and started sharing their faith with me. I asked them, “Who is the woman clothed with the sun in the Book of Revelation? Is she not Mary, Mother of God?” (We have a small Mary statue in our front yard.) The JW started to explain that the Book of Revelation has a lot of symbolism in it, that we shouldn’t take it too literally, and the like. I replied, “This is quite something, a Jehovah’s Witness telling a Roman Catholic not to take the Bible so literally.”
