Note: In this area
(1) Sin of man began (Garden of Eden)
(2) 1st murder was committed
(3) 1st war was fought
(4) the flood began here
(5) the Tower of Babel was erected here
(6) Israelites were brought here during Babylonian capivity
(7) Babylon was the fountainhead of idolatry
(8) here will be the final surage for sin on earth during the great Tribulation period
(9) Zechaiah locates Babylon as the last stand of false religion (Zech. Chapter 5)
Nowhere in the Scriptures are holy angels bound. Satan will be bound 1,000 years.
III. In Rev. 6:8 when the fourth seal is open, 1/4 of the world is killed.
That leaves 3/4 of the world left. Now in Rev. 9:15 another 1/3 is killed.
To date 1/2 of the world is killed.
IV. The third part of man that will be killed is done by an army of Two Hundred Million (9:16)
Note: This will be done in 1 day. Today China, India, and Japan army numbers 12 hundred million.
V. This is not a normal army. They will kill the third part of man
by fire
by smoke
by brimstone
Note: The underworld is making war on mankind.
VI. Their power is in their horses’ mouths
VII. Their power is in their tails which have heads
These tails (like unto serpents) hurt, but do not kill.
VIII. Those that survive repent NOT
not of the works of their hands
not of worshipping devils
not of idol worship
made of gold silver brass stone wood
which CAN NOT see, hear or walk
IX. Neither repented they of their murders,
their sorceries (drugs), their fornication (same sex relations), nor of their thefts.
They changed NOT. (Man still has NOT changed from these sins)
Note:
The word sorceries in Gk is pharmakeion. Pharmakeion in English is pharmacy.
The word Pharmacy means drugs. What was once called drugstores are now called pharmacies.
Extra Note:
Those today, who are NOT standing for the Word of God are easy prey for the false cults.
