Guide & Record of your thoughts 9/5/10 Destiny (of the world) Pt 32 Revelation 17 Following the Message: 1)
The great harlot is not an actual prostitute Harlot/metaphor for false religion, spiritual defection Association with the kings of the earth reveals- scope of the harlot’s influence will be immense
2) In the ancient world it was customary for prostitutes to identify themselves by writing their names on their foreheads 3) BABYLON is a symbol of all worldly resistance to God. It’s described as “THE GREAT” because of its far-reaching influence. 4) vs 7 “The scarlet beast” refers to the Antichrist. Sitting on the beast signifies he is supporting her. 5) vs 8 Scripture portrays the Anti-christ as an intellectual genius. An outstanding orator and military leader without parallel. 6) The term “was, and is not, and is about to come -refers to Antichrist’s death/resurrection 7) The activity described in Revelation 17 takes place approximately halfway through the Tribulation period 8) The mountains described as seven kings are world empires. The Five world empires fallen by the time of John’s vision are: Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece 9) Vs 11 How can he (Antichrist) be an eighth king and also one of the seven? He is 1 of the 7 before his death and an eighth king after his resurrection, during the second phase of his rule.
10) That they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour means a brief time. 11) In Vs 16 the Harlot is no longer beautifully adorned, but now is found naked and consumed. This graphic language of extreme violence makes it clear that the Antichrist will obliterate anything that stands in His way of obtaining glory for himself 12) In vs 17 it is clear that everything that happens is precisely in the scope of God’s sovereign plan as the plan of the ages unfolds
Greek word used today: Thaumazo (thou-mad'-zo); have in admiration, marveled - to be amazed, surprised; to wonder at something with attentive interest
