Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Psalm 51:5

Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb. Isaiah 48:8

Adam and Eve had a fallen nature when their children were born thus their children have a fallen nature; they were dead in transgression and needed a savior.

Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1 John 3:14

For the the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23

My fren we all do not come out of babylon nor are we all in babylon; that is not where our sinful disposition comes from or resides in if that's what you were insinuating.

Let's look at the three angel's message now:

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. Revelation 14:8

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 of every unclean and hateful bird. Revelation 18:1-2

And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Revelation 14:9-11

Babylon is the system selling wine full of fornication - apostacy leading those to satanic worship whether they know it or not. The people in babylon are the people drinking its wine.

Remember that wine is doctrine:

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:4-5

Babylon is a typology that represents apostates against God, as the physical babylon has already been destroyed to never be rebuilt.

Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed. We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies. Jeremiah 51:8-9

The message of the second angel strengthens the first message and adds depth to the extent of the rot of corruption, revealing the corruptions that have entered the churches between the first and second angel. These two messages join together in the third angel's message as a loud cry to separate the people from this rotted church.

The babylonian system has permeated the entire world, and that is what you may be referring to, but it will die by fire (notice, not stoning, but fire - who was punished by fire? the prostitute - the idolatrous - as the woman is the church):

For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Ephesians 5:23

And the drinkers of her wine (false doctrine) will sorrow for loss, a sinful sorrow leading to their death, and not repentance.

Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. 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, 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. Revelation 18:8-10

I hope I understood you correctly and responded properly.
Let me also share some scripture regarding the "sealed" verse you quoted.

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Revelation 14:12

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. Deuteronomy 11:13,16,18

"Here is the patience of the saints". We are to think and act accordingly with the commandments and the faith of, notice of and not in, Jesus, in our minds and our actions. Having faith in Jesus reads as if the self has faith, but having the faith of Jesus is to have His faith - the faith that He, as "God was manifest in the flesh" (1 Timothy 3:16), had as the Son.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Wow, what a powerful message!

Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. Deuteronomy 11:13,16,18

"Here is the patience of the saints". We are to think and act accordingly with the commandments and the faith of, notice of and not in, Jesus, in our minds and our actions. Having faith in Jesus reads as if the self has faith, but having the faith of Jesus is to have His faith - the faith that He, as "manifested in the flesh" (1 Timothy 3:16), had as the Son. Wow, what a powerful message!

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Reason: Original

Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Psalm 51:5

Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb. Isaiah 48:8

Adam and Eve had a fallen nature when their children were born thus their children have a fallen nature; they were dead in transgression and needed a savior.

Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 1 John 3:14

For the the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23

My fren we all do not come out of babylon; that is not where our sinful disposition comes from if that's what you were insinuating.

Let's look at the three angel's message now:

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. Revelation 14:8

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 of every unclean and hateful bird. Revelation 18:1-2

And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Revelation 14:9-11

Babylon is the system selling wine full of fornication - apostacy leading those to satanic worship whether they know it or not. It is a typology that represents apostates against God, as the physical babylon has already been destroyed to never be rebuilt.

Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed. We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies. Jeremiah 51:8-9

The message of the second angel strengthens the first message and adds depth to the extent of the rot of corruption, revealing the corruptions that have entered the churches between the first and second angel. These two messages join together in the third angel's message as a loud cry to separate the people from this rotted church.

Remember that wine is doctrine:

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:4-5

The babylonian system has permeated the entire world, and that is what you may be referring to, but it will die by fire (notice, not stoning, but fire - who was punished by fire? the prostitute - the idolatrous - as the woman is the church):

For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Ephesians 5:23

And the drinkers of her wine (false doctrine) will sorrow for loss, a sinful sorrow leading to their death, and not repentance.

Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. 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, 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. Revelation 18:8-10

I hope this helps clearing up what babylon is supposed to represent.
Let me also share some scripture regarding the "sealed" verse you quoted.

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Revelation 14:12

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. Deuteronomy 11:13,16,18

"Here is the patience of the saints". We are to think and act accordingly with the commandments and the faith of, notice of and not in, Jesus in our minds and our actions. Having faith in Jesus reads as if the self has faith, but having the faith of Jesus is to have His faith - the faith that He, as "manifested in the flesh" (1 Timothy 3:16), had as the Son.
