The Destroyer Comes From the North (Mystery Babylon and Bible Prophecy)

The written version of this teaching is on its way. In the meantime, watch it here.

What do the scriptures have to reveal about Mystery Babylon and the nations that are set in array against her? Jeremiah warned of a conqueror from the north. Only a handful of modern nations are to the north of the corridor between Israel and Baghdad (closest city to the Babylonian ruins), the most prominent nation of which is Russia.

All signs point to a clash between two superpowers struggling for dominance. Have the scriptures provided a spoiler alert on how things will ultimately play out? Remember Babylon's ruin comes in a single hour. In this video, we take a look at prophecies from both the book of Isaiah and the book of Jeremiah to find clues regarding the identity of Mystery Babylon.

Let's dive into the book of Isaiah and search for Bible Prophecy regarding the identity of Mystery Babylon (also sometimes referred to as the daughter of Babylon). Isaiah, by the power of the Holy Spirit, prophesized the downfall of the original Babylon in antiquity. However, he still has a lot to say about the doomed end times kingdom of Mystery Babylon.

The Bible has a chiastic, double-fulfillment structure, and so many of the proclamations against the original Babylon apply to today. It is God Himself that draws us to make the comparison, by giving the end times kingdom the same name. As we read Isaiah's proclamations, can you see the kingdoms of the earth today beginning to hate the harlot of Babylon?

I am going to make the case that IF the United States of America is NOT Mystery Babylon, then she does such a good impression that she should expect to drink from her cup and to receive of her plagues.
