Revelation 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

Babylon is a spiritually present real fallen power in the world that seduces the children of God.

Fornication is spiritual Idolatry, it is the choosing of another premise over truth. Every false way is spiritual fornication to the true way.

This first usage of Babylon is set in Chapter 14 where the 144,000 are with the Lamb on mount Zion. They have the seal of God in their foreheads, they follow only the Lamb, they are virgins new born from spiritual Idolatry.

We all come from Babylon. We were once part of spiritual fornication. We put our own religious ideas over truth, we were made to drink of the wrath of her fornication.

The word wrath is better translated passion here. We were taken by Babylon until we overcome it.

Revelation 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; 19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first. 20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

We are to overcome spiritual Idolatry

Revelation 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

When we overcome spiritual Idolatry we are promised power over the nations, that is every false way, and we rule from Zion with the Lamb, I like to call it the order of the 144,000.

In the real time drama of Revelation we are the angel, the messenger of Jesus Christ that proclaims Babylon is fallen fallen.

Revelation 14:8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

We have been conscripted to spread the message that the fallen Babylon is to be judged by the church, by the overcomer, by those who follow Jesus Christ with no fornication or Idolatry, we don't follow another religious order, we proclaim that all spiritual Idolatry is judged.

We also proclaim the everlasting gospel!

Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
