"The Secrets of GOD," as revealed by John in the Revealtion of Christ, chapter 19's hidden insights, part 3e of 4, with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

Picking up at Revelation 17 to find our subject area here, it being "the Wine-press of the "Wrath" or Passion of GOD and the Great Supper." Here we fine the woman of Babylon the symbolic system hidden in this worlds religions, as disguised under a false cover system of idolatrous wickedness containing the delusion of Thessalonians.


The Wine-press of the "Wrath" of GOD and The Great Supper:

Revelation 17:4-6, "The woman was draped in purple and scarlet fabric, festooned and sprinkled with golden, precious stones and pearls. Holding a golden [1]cup in her hand, brimming with defiling obscenities, and the stench of her impurities. (Again the surface, make-belief beauty and apparent splendor cannot hide her true filthy character - like the white washed tombs Jesus compared to the worlds religious systems to in Mat. 23:25-33. "'Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the [1]cup [poterion] and the dish, but inside you are filthy - full of greed and self-indulgences! You are like beautifully decorated tombs on the outside, desperately trying to hide the stench of decaying corpses within.'"

The Harlot represents the counterfeit [1]cup [poterion] of the covenant cup of the Lord.

1Corinthians 10:16, 21 and 11:25, "The cup [poterion] of blessing which we bless, is it not our communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion body of Christ?....You cannot drink the cup [poterion] of the Lord, and the cup [poterion]of devils: you cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, our altar of seamless union and of the table of devils....After the same manner also the cup [poterion], when He had supped, saying, 'This cup [poterion] is the new testament in My blood: this do, as oft as you drink in remembrance of Me!'"

The covenant cup of the Lord communicates the redeemed life of our design incarnate in our person and fellowship and celebrated in our every meal!) The words written upon her forehead, exposes her mystery identity: "Babylon the Great, the Mother of Whores, and the filth of the earth." (Roman harlots wore a label with their names on their brows. -Rhet. 1.2.7; Juvenal VI. 122f.) The woman I saw was intoxicated with the blood of the [1]Saints and the blood of [2]those who bore the testimony of Jesus - [the cup she drank represented her opposition to everything that the blood of Jesus communicates.] This left me mesmerized, pondering what I saw, desiring to understand the context of it all." (She was intoxicated with the thought that accuses, as sinful, humanity; That could be reckoned blameless Saints by our union in the blood of the Lamb. (Rev. 7:9, 13-14 also 12:11, "Mikael and his Shepherd-Messengers [representing the entire Host of Heaven - including all the multitudes previously mentioned in revelation, received by inspiration] conquered the Dragon because of their identity in the blood of the Lamb and the incarnate/rhema word of their/our testimony!) (The Mirror, with editing.)

I am cutting this one short because of the length of the next section found in Rev. 18. Now may the LORD of All increase our acceptance of His Logos - that is to say, rhema within us.
