I can agree with that..... to a certain point.
"Mystery: Babylon the Great" is not easily detected by the 'world still within us', and to make certain Babylon is not too soon detected within us, she performs "many wonderful works", and we are even told that she is filled with "gold, silver and precious stones", which are the very symbols of the materials with which we are to build upon Christ (see below). So we do not see the depth of her tentacles within our way of life, until it is "revealed by fire".
1 Corinthians 3:11 "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
1 Corinthians 3:13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try EVERY man's work of what sort it is."
