Pamphlet 1899 Rev. kc 45-1
While
most whores know they are "whoring around"
most
idolaters of religion think they serve God.
In chapter 16 we saw the 7 Vials containing the wrath
of God poured out
upon those who had the mark of the beast in their foreheads
(minds)
and who worshipped Satan, the false messiah, as Jesus
Christ.
We will now see one of those 7 angels who poured out the
vials come
and give us a "close up" view of the judgment of
the "Great Whore".
Maybe we should update the terminology
a little and call her the "Great Slut"
because the Holy Spirit wants
us to get a real good PICTURE
of exactly how He looks upon
the false religious system
that spews forth from that great
city where the "son of perdition" will sit claiming that he is God (2 Thes.
2).
Also, be it known that our
Father deals in reality,
so if the terminology used
here is offensive then one can always go to a church
where they only teach nice
things like cute little bunny rabbits and Ishtar eggs, real Biblical gems.
Now, if you have read all of God's Word,
then you are already familiar with "whores" and "harlots"
and how their actions are use to describe "idolatry".
You see, idolatry is a far greater
sin than being a whore,
for the latter is of the
flesh but the former is of the spirit.
And while most whores know they
are "whoring around"
most idolaters of religion think
they serve God,
yet they violate the very 1st Commandment
of God.
For those, however, who are not familiar with God's Word,
for perhaps they are just beginning to study His Word,
then it would serve them well,
if they wish to understand this great chapter 17 of Revelation,
to first read and understand the Book of Hosea in the
Old Testament.
Hosea means "salvation" which is what the Book of Hosea is about!
That's right, the book titled "Salvation" is in the Old Testament.
Then perhaps they will SEE how our Father feels about and looks upon "idolatry", false religion.
As the apostle Paul documents in 2 Thes. 2:3,
there's a Great Apostasy about to be born
and this Great Whore in Rev. 17 will be its mother and
give it birth.
So if you read the Book of Hosea you will read that God tells Hosea to go marry a whore!
That's right! "Go marry a whore, Hosea!
I want you to know what it is like being married to someone who is unfaithful to you!"
