"Throughout the entire history of the church, from time to time a remnant of the Lord’s people have received the revelation of the Holy Spirit that “Babylon is fallen” just as the angel declares in our text. She is “fallen” not only because the word of scripture says so, but because the HOLY SPIRIT HAS REVEALED THAT FACT. Now, for something to be “fallen” does not mean that it no longer exists, or that it has disappeared from the earth. A thing can be “fallen” and yet continue to exist in that fallen state. Actually, “fallen” describes the state or condition of something that does exist! People used to speak of a “fallen” woman as a woman who had left the purity of her life and become a prostitute. We all know that Adam and all mankind in him is in a “fallen” state according to the scriptures and the revelation of the Holy Spirit. In chapters seventeen and eighteen we read of the “judgment” of the harlot, Babylon, and that she will be “burned with fire” and symbolically “cast into the sea” to be found no more. Those scenes speak of the destruction of Babylon, but not her “fall.” Babylon remains to be judged and destroyed, but Babylon “fell” long centuries ago when the church apostatized from the truth and became the fallen woman, the great harlot and the mother of harlots. Can you not see the difference? The harlot system of religious Babylon is in a fallen state as much as anything in the universe is fallen. She doesn’t appear to men to be fallen, for she claims to be “the church” and her outward appearance is that of the representative of our Lord Jesus Christ. Beloved, make no mistake about it, BABYLON IS FALLEN, and the whole church system of man is religious Babylon! She is an unclean, perverted woman! Until we see clearly this difference between “fallen” Babylon and “destroyed” Babylon we will miss the message of the second angel!"
Much more in the link:
"Irrefutable confirmation that this is the true meaning of the statement “Babylon is fallen,” is found in Revelation 18:1-6 wherein we read, “And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage (container) of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven , saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double…”
"It must be made clear to our hearts that these verses present us with a description of Babylon in her “fallen” state — she is full of devils, she is possessed by every kind of foul religious spirit, and is like a cage full of unclean and hateful birds, or manifestations of unrighteousness and spiritual impurity. Because of this fallen condition the Lord’s people are admonished to “come out of her” in order that they might not “be partakers of her sins” and “receive not of her plagues.” If her fallen state signified her collapse or destruction, God’s people would no longer be in her because she would no longer exist as an institution, nor would they be leaving her so as not to receive of her plagues, for the plagues would have already been poured out. But “fallen” Babylon has not yet been rewarded for her iniquities, nor has she been burned with fire, nor has she received double for all her sins, nor has she been cast into the depths of the sea never to be found again! Armed with this knowledge we can now understand the great truth that this cry, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen,” refers not to the judgment or destruction of the system, but rather to the spiritual condition of that system in the present."

The catholic "church" has entered the chat.
My wife and I are reading the kingdom series together, she reads and I listen. Yesterday we read the fist part of #14 on how to enter the kingdom, it was about the difference between the kingdom and the church. Give it a look, here's the link.

I clicked your link to make sure this isn't the "Kingdom" teaching that if Christians can take over enough public office and other positions of power the Kingdom will manifest. That idea is new age hogwash as this article points out.
A Woman Rides The Beast by Dave Hunt explains it in great detail.
You know Catholic means universal. The entire church system regardless the denomination fits the bill of Babylon the great city. Did you know the church and the kingdom are two different things, the kingdom cannot be infiltrated, but the church can. The religious systems of man, the second beast, horns like a lamb, but the voice of the dragon. It looks like a lamb, but it is hostile.
Yes, I figure at least 95% of the world's religious systems are teaching false doctrines. I haven't studied the link above about the Kingdom but it rings true; there is only One King and everything belongs to Him.
