The Structure of Mystery Babylon


THE STRUCTURE OF MYSTERY BABYLON

Dec 28, 2018 by Dr. Stephen Jones

To understand Mystery Babylon, one must know that it is structured as a corporation. The KJV translators knew this centuries ago when they put it in all capital letters in Revelation 17:5, KJV because in legalese, all capital letters is how you identify a corporation.

Revelation 17:5 KJV  And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

The main goal of Mystery Babylon is to turn nations into corporations on equal footing with the big banks, oil, chemical, pharmaceutical, auto, and other corporations. The corporations then attain power and influence according to their size and money on their balance sheets. This aspect of Mystery Babylon is known politically as Fascism.

But Mystery Babylon is more than a Fascist entity. It also uses Socialism as a way of putting nations (actually national corporations) into their debt. Since the big banks were given power to create money and loan it to the government at interest, theoretically, there was no limit on the amount of debt a nation could have. The only question was whether or not a government could service that debt—in other words, could it pay the interest when its bonds came due?

But even then, the government could go further into debt to pay the interest payments. At some point, however, this system would have to implode. It is a finite system, and its demise has been characterized by volatility and by the exponential rise on all of the financial charts.

The Deep State understood this many decades ago, and they planned to use that collapse to bring in another financial system that gave them even greater political control. Their plan, however, ran aground with the Trump victory in 2016. Now they have been complaining loudly that he is undoing everything that they had put in place for so long.

In fact, we noticed years ago that laws were being put into place where the president was being given dictatorial power over virtually everything in case of “national emergency.” The Deep State was planning for Hillary Clinton to be in place when this happened, but she lost and will never again achieve political power beyond the power to blackmail government agents and politicians.

Trump himself has signed executive orders amending presidential powers in case of national emergencies. He appears to be getting ready to call a national emergency in his war against the Deep State. A year ago (December 21, 2017) he signed an executive order actually declaring a limited state of national emergency in dealing with political corruption and human trafficking. This week he extended that for another year.

But back to Mystery Babylon… and God’s Plan.

The previous beast empires were given the mandate to rule the entire earth, but none of them actually succeeded. Their empires were quite extensive, but they were limited to territory in the Mideast, North Africa, and Europe. Most of Asia and the Americas were not subject to these beast empires.

Mystery Babylon is different in that it is a world-wide empire. Its founders and rulers came to understand that power was to be found by controlling three main areas: spiritual power, economic power, and military power. Any one of these by itself could not hope to succeed. Military power had been tried by all of the earlier empires, including Rome, and had failed. Spiritual power had been tried by the Roman church and had failed again. Mystery Babylon devised a way to gain economic power by gaining the power to create money, and this gave them far greater success than any other previous beast system.

Rome became the spiritual center of power, the City of London became the financial center of power, and Washington D.C. became the military center of power. It was a three-headed dragon, each centered in a different independent City-State. (Yes, Washington D.C. is a City-State that is independent of the American States. The US citizens have blue passports; American citizens have red passports.)

However, God also has plans. Revelation 17 and 18 shows the collapse of Mystery Babylon, but Daniel 2:44 says that the Stone Kingdom will “never be destroyed.” It will grow until it fills the whole earth. The kingdoms of gold, silver, bronze, and iron will all fail and will be replaced by the Stone Kingdom.

Daniel 2:44 NET In the days of those kings the God of heaven will raise up an everlasting kingdom that will not be destroyed and a kingdom that will not be left to another people. It will break in pieces and bring about the demise of all these kingdoms. But it will stand forever.

That is the political history of the world, foretold in the book of Daniel nearly 600 years before Christ.

God is using Mystery Babylon to unite the nations under one head—which we now call the Deep State. When their time is complete, God will then behead the Deep State and take over its territory. The Persians took over Babylon’s empire by conquering the city of Babylon and replacing its king. So also will Christ do so, although His war tactics are vastly different from that of the beast empires.

Understanding the sovereignty of God takes the fear out of knowing what is going on today. We can look at some pretty scary things that Mystery Babylon is doing, as they threaten to wipe out most of humanity through their Agenda 21, their expressed intention written on the Georgia Guidestone, and, of course, the continuing practice of abortion and war policy.

But we are assured in Scripture that their plans will fail in the end. It is not too different from the threat of Pharaoh when Israel was at the Red Sea. The situation looked hopeless for Israel, but God had deliberately led them to that place in order to destroy Pharaoh’s army. Most of the Israelites at that time did not have sufficient faith in God, nor did they know His plan, and so they were afraid and blamed Moses (Exodus 14:10, 11, 12).

Exodus 14:10-12 NET When Pharaoh got closer, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians marching after them, and they were terrified. The Israelites cried out to the LORD, (11) and they said to Moses, "Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the desert? What in the world have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt? (12) Isn't this what we told you in Egypt, 'Leave us alone so that we can serve the Egyptians, because it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!' "

The same is true today. Most of the people want to return to “Egypt” because they are afraid of Pharaoh’s army. But we know the plan, being instructed from the Scriptures, and for this reason, we can discuss the current situation realistically without preaching the gospel of fear. We can give hope and confidence, knowing that we now live in a post-Babylonian era. The turning point was reached in October 2017, when the saints of the Most High received the Kingdom, as prophesied in Daniel 7:21, 22, and 25.

Daniel 7:21, 22, 25 NET While I was watching, that horn began to wage war against the holy ones and was defeating them, (22) until the Ancient of Days arrived and judgment was rendered in favor of the holy ones of the Most High. Then the time came for the holy ones to take possession of the kingdom……..(25) He will speak words against the Most High. He will harass the holy ones of the Most High continually. His intention will be to change times established by law. They will be delivered into his hand For a time, times, and half a time.

I do not know how long it will take to fully overthrow Mystery Babylon, but I am confident that it will happen. My personal battleground at the moment is in dealing with various spiritual powers (entities) that are the power base for the Babylonian rulers. As we undercut those spiritual powers, the power brokers on earth find their power exposed and cut off.

The Blood Covenant with Jerico/Babylon


THE BLOOD COVENANT WITH JERICHO/BABYLON

Dec 28, 2018 by Dr. Stephen Jones

In Joshua 6 we read of the battle of Jericho, where the walls (and its gates) were destroyed when Israel took the city. After the battle, we read in Joshua 6:26,

26 Then Joshua made them take an oath at that time, saying, “Cursed before the Lord is the man who rises up and builds this city Jericho; with the loss of his first-born he shall lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son he shall set up its gates.”

The phrase “the loss of” is italicized in the NASB, because it was added by the translators. The Hebrew text does not actually say it, but the translators believed that this was how to understand it. I assumed the same until today, so I will say more about this shortly.

This prophetic curse was actually fulfilled more than 600 years later in the time of King Ahab. We read in 1 Kings 16:33, 34,

33 And Ahab also made the Asherah. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the Lord God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were before him. 34 In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho; he laid its foundation with the loss of Abiram his first-born and set up its gates with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the Lord, which He spoke by Joshua the son of Nun.

We are also told earlier (vs. 32) that King Ahab built an altar to Baal in Samaria. The flow of the biblical text shows that the altar in Samaria and the walls of Jericho were both “evil” things occurring in the days of King Ahab. The altar in Samaria was an altar to Baal, who required human sacrifice, and it appears that Hiel the Bethelite also sacrificed his own sons to dedicate the walls and gates of Jericho.

In other words, the two sons of Hiel the Bethelite did not just drop dead back at the homestead when he laid the foundations of the walls and gates. It appears that he sacrificed his children, a common practice in those days (and today, too, unfortunately). The possibility of interpreting these passages in this way is supported by John D. Davis in his A Dictionary of the Bible. He writes on page 309,

Hi’el [probably, God liveth]

A native of Bethel, who, in Ahab’s reign, fortified Jericho, bringing down on himself the fulfillment of Joshua’s imprecation. His oldest son died, perhaps was sacrificed, when the foundation of the city was laid, and his youngest son when the gates were set up [1 Kin. xvi. 34 with Josh. vi. 26).

Hiel was from Bethel, “house of God,” which had been transformed into a religious center where the people worshiped one of the golden calves (1 Kings 12:28, 29). We are not told directly whether or not Hiel was a priest in Bethel, but it is clear that this is a prophetic story. For this reason, it has significance for us today.

Jericho and Babylon
To understand the big picture, we must recall that Jericho was a type of Babylon. In other words, the battle of Jericho prophesied of a greater battle yet to come, when our own Joshua (Yeshua, or Jesus) brings us into the Promised Land. In the original battle, the people marched around the city for six days blowing trumpets (Joshua 6:4, 7), and on the seventh day they marched around it seven times (Joshua 6:15). At the end of the seventh trip, the people shouted and the priests blew a long continuous blast (Joshua 6:5, 16). Then the walls collapsed (Joshua 6:20).

The “trumpets” in this case are not silver trumpets but shofars, or “rams’ horns.”  Further, the text literally reads in Joshua 6:4, “the priests shall blow the yobel,” that is, the Jubilee. The silver trumpet was blown on the feast of Trumpets (71), while the shofar was blown nine days later on the Jubilee (7/10).

Two Jerichos
In chapter 2 of book 7 of Dr. Luke: Healing the Breaches, I wrote about the two Jerichos. When Jesus was on his final journey to Jerusalem, He healed the blind man named Bar-Timaeus as He drew near to Jericho (Luke 18:35). But Mark 10:46 seems to contradict this, telling us that the blind man was healed “as He was going out from Jericho.”

The solution to this dilemma is in the fact that there were two Jerichos.
“The Old Testament site of Tell es-Sultan is in the distance and is the city Joshua destroyed. In Jesus’ day a new center had been constructed on the wadi banks in the foreground by the Hasmonean rulers and Herod the Great.”

Luke was telling us that Jesus healed the blind man while He was leaving the ancient city of Jericho, the city that Joshua had conquered. Mark tells us that the blind man was begging along the road as Jesus approached New Jericho a mile up the road. Bar-Timaeus was sitting by the road between the two cities.

Bar-Timaeus was healed, and he began to follow Jesus, testifying of the power of God all the way to Jerusalem. It should have been obvious that Jesus was the Messiah, but instead, the power-hungry priests killed him, blackmailing Pontius Pilate into doing their dirty work.

Two Prophetic Jerichos
The original Jericho was destroyed by Joshua, who put a curse upon anyone who would rebuild the city, its walls, and its gates. As we said, 600 years later Hiel the Bethelite rebuilt the city, dedicating it with a blood covenant by sacrificing his own children.

If the original Jericho is like Babylon, then the rebuilt city of Jericho is like Mystery Babylon. It is not really the same city, but it is a prophetic reconstruction of the old city. Those who built Mystery Babylon have come under Joshua’s curse, because Jericho is Babylon from the standpoint of prophecy. New Jericho is a parallel to Mystery Babylon.

As I have written many times before, the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was the reconstruction of Babylon, known as Mystery Babylon. When the founders met on Jekyll Island in 1910 to write and plan the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, they deliberately did so in a room over the very site of an old altar of human sacrifice. Here is the story how this fact was discovered:

Editor’s Synapsis
An extremely interesting talk-video.  The gist of the story is a missionary, Tim Bence, returning from the Middle East is told by God to go visit Jekyll Island.  While there he is taken on a tour by the appointed historian and museum curator. 

He learns about the Indians who lived there and is shown a preserved burial site that contains the skeletons of several of the Indians.  He notices the skeletons are unusually tall and is told by the curator they averaged between seven and eight feet in length. 

Afterwards he is shown a copy of a painting done by the French Huguenots who visited the island and then fled for their lives.  The painting shows the Indians dancing around a stone altar while sacrificing infants by cutting them to pieces.  The missionary reveals that he grew up and presently lives in Oklahoma and is very familiar with the history of the various Native American Indians from that area.  He states that no American Indian was of that height and no tribe ever built a stone altar nor did they sacrifice anyone particularly babies.  However, he claims, that altars resembling the one in the picture is common in the Middle East from where he has recently returned.

The curator tells him that the stone altar is still intact but that it cannot be seen because it is underneath the floor of a cabin/residence built by Nelson Rockefeller during the conclave that developed the Federal Reserve Act.

So we may conclude that the founders of the Federal Reserve Act played the role of Hiel the Bethelite in rebuilding Mystery Babylon. Not being believers in Christ (though perhaps many were church members), they invoked a blood covenant which would spiritually empower Mystery Babylon to rule in the final century (the Laodicean Age of Church captivity).

The Blood Covenant Overruled
Yesterday, December 27, 2018, I discovered these connections after being called into the divine court to deal with an ancient “blood covenant,” empowering two high-level evil spirits. I cast them out to the feet of Jesus without really knowing what I was dealing with.

In praying about it, God revealed that this blood covenant had taken place in Israel during the Divided Kingdom (from Solomon to the fall of Samaria).

In praying further about it this afternoon, I recalled that earlier in the day yesterday the thought had crossed my mind—unrelated to anything—that the dedication of Jericho might have involved human sacrifice, rather than just a death in the family. I was busy with other things, so I soon forgot about it. Then in the evening came the divine court session dealing with a “blood covenant” of some sort.

Today, as I searched the biblical account of the history between Solomon and the fall of Samaria, I came across the story of Hiel the Bethelite. Upon inquiry, the Lord confirmed that this was the blood covenant that I had dealt with last evening, and as I studied it further, I began to understand its significance.

Realize that this was a progressive revelation. I had not put any of this together at the time, and I learned what it was about only after spending some time searching the Scriptures prayerfully. In fact, it was not until I sat down to write this account that I remembered the story of Jekyl Island. Even then, I probably would not have remembered it, except that God had led a reader to email me the link that I just posted, where the man tells how he learned about the ancient altar of human sacrifice under the very room where the Federal Reserve Act had been written by high-level bankers.

I am always amazed at how God uses multiple witnesses to give input into important revelations. When He does this, it is clear that He is guiding all of us to learn some hidden truth. So this is the truth for the day.

I conclude that the blood covenant empowering the Federal Reserve Act has now been broken and covered by the blood of Christ. Two evil spirits have been dispatched, leaving the Fed defenseless against Joshua’s army. It makes me wonder how soon the Fed will be nationalized.
