When I began sharing that the USA is Babylon the Great I found that there are three major false teachings in the churches. The most popular is that the Catholic Church is Babylon the great. The second most popular false teaching, which is an offshoot of the Catholic Church teaching, is that Babylon the great is all false religions, in which they include the Catholic Church. The third major false teaching is that Babylon of Old will be rebuilt and fulfill Babylon the Great.

Those that teach that the Catholic Church is Babylon the Great claim that the woman John saw sitting on the beast with the seven heads and ten horns, in Rev 17:3, is a picture of the Antichrist ruling over his kingdom and that one day a Pope will be the Antichrist.
Rev 17:3 And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.

Contrary to this idea, Rev 17:1,15 and 18 reveals that the woman is depicted as sitting on the beast in Rev 17:3 because she rules over the beast not because she is the ruling king of the beast.
Rev. 17:1, 15 and 18…1 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come here, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 15 And he said to me, “The waters which you saw where the harlot sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues. 18 “The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.”

You can see that the woman that sits on the beast with the seven heads and ten horns can't be the Antichrist because Rev 17:8-11 tells us that the Antichrist, who is symbolized as the beast that comes up out of the abyss, comes out of one of the seven heads and becomes an eighth king that the woman sits on and if the woman symbolizes the Antichrist this would cause the Antichrist to come out of one of the seven heads and sit on himself.
Rev 17:8 “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and go to destruction. And those who dwell on the earth will wonder, whose name has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast, that he was and is not and will come. 9 “Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits, 10 and they are seven kings; five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while. 11 “The beast which was and is not, is himself also an eighth and is one of the seven, and he goes to destruction.

It also does not make sense that the woman sitting on the beast is the Antichrist because Rev 17:16-17 tells us that the Antichrist’s kingdom defeats the woman and if the woman symbolizes the Antichrist this causes the Antichrist to defeat himself.
Rev 17:16 “And the ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire. 17 “For God has put it in their hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God will be fulfilled.

Those that teach that the woman is the Antichrist and that one day a Pope will fulfill the woman, claim that the seven mountains in Rev 17:9-10 are the seven hills around Rome, to support their view. However, since we know that the woman does not depict the Antichrist and that a future Pope will not fulfill the woman, I would like to point out that the word mountains in Rev 17:9 is a metaphor that depicts the 7 kingdoms that the 7 kings rule over, not the seven hills around Rome.
Rev 17:9 “Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits, 10 and they are seven kings; five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while.

You can also see in Rev 16:18-19 that Babylon the Great cannot symbolize the Catholic church because it is split into three by an earthquake and it doesn’t make sense for an earthquake to split the Catholic church; and if the Catholic church was destroyed for some reason, this would not cause all the cities of the nations to fall.
Rev 16:18 And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. 19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath.

Another way that you can see that the Catholic church is not the fulfillment of Babylon the Great is because Rev 18:15 and 18 tell us that Babylon the Great is that place where all the merchants of the earth and every shipping company in the world are becoming rich and we know that they are not becoming rich by or through the Catholic church.
Rev 18:15 “The merchants of these things, who became rich from her, will stand at a distance because of the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning, 19 “And they threw dust on their heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘ Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had ships at sea became rich by her wealth, for in one hour she has been laid waste!’

You can see from the descriptions of Babylon the Great found in these scriptures that neither the Catholic Church or it’s off shoot, False Religions are the fulfillment of Babylon the Great.

Is 13:1 and 17-22 tell us that Babylon of Old cannot be the fulfillment of Babylon the great, because these verses tell us that Babylon of Old will never be revived.
Is.13:1 and 17-221 The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw. 17 Behold, I am going to stir up the Medes against them, Who will not value silver or take pleasure in gold. 18 And their bows will mow down the young men, They will not even have compassion on the fruit of the womb,Nor will their eye pity children. 19 And Babylon, the beauty of kingdoms, the glory of the Chaldeans’ pride, Will be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. 20 It will never be inhabited or lived in from generation to generation; Nor will the Arab pitch his tent there, Nor will shepherds make their flocks lie down there. 21 But desert creatures will lie down there, And their houses will be full of owls; Ostriches also will live there, and shaggy goats will frolic there. 22 Hyenas will howl in their fortified towers And jackals in their luxurious palaces. Her fateful time also will soon come And her days will not be prolonged.

Jesus revealed to me that the USA is Babylon the Great and He sent me to convey this message to whoever will listen. If you compare the descriptions found in the scriptures that tell us that the three major false teachings are not the fulfillment of Babylon the Great, with the USA, you will see that they reveal that the US is Babylon the great.

The USA is the only country in the world that is capable of ruling over the Antichrist and his kingdoms, before the earthquake renders USA defenseless, and gives the Antichrist the idea to form the fourth beast and defeat the USA.

When the USA is split into three by the earthquake described in Rev 16 all the cities of the nations will fall because the merchants of the earth, who are becoming wealthy by selling their goods in the USA, are manufacturing these goods in their cities, and when they have no place to sell their goods, this will cause the manufacturing to cease and the economies and their cities to fall.

The USA is the only country in the world that every shipping company in the world is getting rich from by shipping the goods for the merchants of the earth to her.

The USA is Babylon the great because like Babylon of Old was, it is the center of trade and rules the earth, but is greater in magnitude.

The USA is the Mother of Harlots because it is the only country in the world that is causing all the nations to become baby harlots by becoming like her, or westernized.

The Socialists in the Democratic Party and RINOs are causing the USA to fulfill the MOTHER OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH by using the economic grip the USA has on other nations and US military supremacy to force the nations of the earth to legalize such abominations as abortion, homosexuality, same sex marriage and transgender.

Jesus sent me to tell the believers that the USA is Babylon the Great so that they understand that Rev 18:4 is a forewarning to the believers in the USA, that if they participate in the sins that the Socialists in the Democratic Party are legalizing in the USA and throughout the world, either directly or indirectly by voting for one of these anti-Christian Socialists, they will receive their plagues. Some of their sins include, abortion, separation of church and state, legalizing homosexuality, same sex marriage, transgender, no evangelistic statements allowed in the work place, the inclusion of no evangelizing in the no soliciting signs that you see on the store windows and teaching Darwinian evolution.
Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people, that you may not participate in her sins and that you may not receive of her plagues;
Rev. 1:3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it; for the time is near.
