a.gif (1659 bytes)   Revelation 17:1-9 says, “And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.”

The great whore seems very clearly to be the Catholic Church. “I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters.” The Catholic Church sits upon many waters — it is found in countries scattered throughout the world.

“With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication.” The leaders of many nations enter into relationships with the Vatican, whereas they would never think of entering into an official relationship with any other church.

“The inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.” For years it has been known that the priests in the Catholic Church commit fornication on a grand scale — from being immoral with the nuns, or with the wives, and daughters of parishioners; to committing sodomy with the boys of families that attend their parish. For all of these years, people have been in, as it were, a drunken stupor in regard to what has been widely documented for years and years. They just let it go on and on, letting their own families be abused by these wicked, perverted priests.

“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.” The wealth of the Catholic Church is also documented. It owns many businesses, and is filthy rich.

“And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” The Catholic Church often refers to itself as the “Mother Church.” It exalts Mary above Jesus. It condones idols, statues, shrines, and the blasphemous mass.

“And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.” The Catholic Church and its inquisitions have shed the blood of countless Christians. Many Christians lived in the catacombs and other hiding places to escape the torture of the Catholic Church. What was their crime? Reading the Bible. Having a copy of the Bible. Translating the Bible. Confessing Christ alone as their only hope of salvation — not baptism — not Mary — not the mass — not the pope.

“And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.” It is said that Rome sits on seven hills.

The Catholic Church clearly seems to be the “one world false church” of the end times. Many protestant churches are talking about “going back home to the mother church (the Catholic Church).” The Charismatic-Catholics are high in power and influence in these days (like with Promise-Keepers), and they downplay doctrine. That is something that the Catholic Church has long wanted to hear from Protestants. For it was Bible doctrine that drove Martin Luther away from the false doctrine of the Catholic Church, and the giving up of Bible doctrine will draw that same crowd back to the “mother harlot church” once again.
