Revelation 18:9 ¶ And the kings
of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her,
shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her
burning, 10 Standing afar off for the
fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty
city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. 11
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man
buyeth their merchandise any more: 12
The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls,
and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all
manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of
brass, and iron, and marble, 13 And
cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and
fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and
slaves, and souls of men.
This Babylon does business in
slaves and souls. This is important as modern ‘First World’ countries do not openly
engage in slavery as a business although there are estimated to be between 30
and 40 million slaves in other parts of the world and human sexual slavery and
labor slavery, both also called human trafficking, is thought to be growing in
the western countries, as well. Slavery exists in the form of legal slavery
where criminals are used to work for the state as in ‘chain gangs’ in the
Southern United States although I daresay you would find few inmates actually
in chains while they work on the road crews anymore. Slavery, with people as a
commodity, must return, at least in the beast’s kingdom. Other things listed
could be said to be types until you get to slaves
and souls of men and then you have a
problem with types. Souls of men can
easily be a reference to Rome and the Vatican but slaves? The word slave is
used on Jeremiah 2:14 to show the connection between some servants and slaves. We
must be looking at conditions near the end of history that we cannot understand
now. Human trafficking is a growing problem around the world from sexual
slavery to labor slavery. The globalist elite, as we were made painfully aware
in the Jeffrey Epstein scandals still unfolding, are inextricably enmeshed in
this phenomenon.
Both Rome and Jerusalem are a good
distance from the sea but not so far that a great cataclysm involving them
could not be seen from the sea. We must remember that English people could hear
and see evidence of fighting in World War One as the battlefront in France was
so close to them that an officer could have breakfast at his club in London in
the morning and eat supper in the trenches in the evening. It will not be
advisable to be anywhere near this city just as you would want to avoid Sodom
and Gomorrah during their “rain of ruin.”
