Continuing with Our Eternal link to GOD in Christ as exposed by Him, the I AM. 6.4a

                                             Humanity's Identity Redeemed

Here we are with another on the subject of the woman of Revelation 17 and our discovery of who and what she represents today as the world seems to be in chaos and upside down to say the least. Again lets see what the writer of Hebrews has to say, this being taken from chapter 13 and verses 20 and 21, KJV:

"Now the GOD of peace, that brought again from the dead our LORD Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do Their Will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in Their sight, through Jesus Christ; To Whom be glory for ever and ever. The great Amen."

Now there is one word used within the context of this passage that has been a stumbling block for those of the religious mindset, which we shall find is a by produce of the woman of Revelation 17 as are the political conditions of our day, with many other distortions of fact and truth. The word here is "perfect," with that said what does the Strong's word study say about it: 

"Make you perfectG2675 G5209 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041 to doG4160 hisG848 will,G2307" As you can now see there are two references shown, G2675, katartizō, this composed of two words, From G2596 and a derivative of G739; To complete thoroughly, that is, repair (literally or figuratively) or adjust: - fit, frame, mend, (make) perfect (-ly join together), prepare, restore (to that of Genesis chapter 2 status, innocent). And then G5209, humas, Accusative of G5210; you (as the object of a verb or preposition): - ye, you, (+ -ward), your (+ own). So when someone says that they are not the righteousness of GOD, we can tell that they are just that. For they are just mimicking what they've been brainwashed, indoctrinated with over many years of religious exposure. They do not even know their own design or origin, the being one within Elohiym.

Now for the first of three parts of Revelation 17, the first is 1 through 7 and remember that these passages all have many hidden references to the OT accounts: Rev 17:1-7 "There came one of the seven angels who had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying to me, "Come; I will show you the judgment of the great whore that sits upon many waters (Jeremiah 51:13, Rev. 17:15): 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 (Rev. 14:8, 18:3, 9, 23; Jer. 51:7). So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: where I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy (Rev. 13:1-6, Dan. 7:8, 20, 25, 11:36; 2Thes. 2:4) having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked (Dan. 11:38) with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup (Jer. 51:7; 2Thes. 2:3-10) in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication (Deu. 29:17, 1Ki. 14:24, 2Ki. 21:2, Isa. 66:3: Ezr. 9:11, Lam. 1:9, Eze. 24:11, 13, 36:25) And upon her forehead (Rev. 7:3, Isa. 3:9; Php. 3:19) was a name written, MYSTERY (2Thes. 2:7, 2Tim. 3:1-5), BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER (Rev. 18:9, 19:2) OF HARLOTS (fornication's) 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 to me, "Wherefore do you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns."

Now for the Mirror Study Bibles rendition of this: 

And came one of seven Messengers with the seven golden temple vessels approaching me and called to me to come and see the judgment of that notorious prostitute who sat enthroned upon the many trade routes of the waters - both the rivers and seas. ( Same language repeated in Rev. 21:9 "And one of the seven Shepherd - Messengers, having the seven vessels being filled with the seven last wounds, came to me and spoke with me, saying, "Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife!" The Prostitute Society of Babylon [the "Old Jerusalem" is set up against the Bride - society - the New Jerusalem.) She engages the kings of the earth with her harlotry, intoxicating the earth dwellers with the wine of her passion and fornication's. The Messenger then carried me to a desert place [in total contrast to the hustle and bustle of the busy trade routes of the oceans and the rivers] I was transported there in spirit and saw a woman seated upon a [1]scarlet colored Beast; With [2]blasphemous, insulting names written all over them like a label revealing the content of their [3]cargo. The Beast had seven heads and ten horns. (For reference to the same Beast, Rev. 13:1-10 and its second Partner in verse 11, 12, the Lamb with Dragon's voice, later called the False Prophet and here, the Harlot. Together in their alliance with the Dragon they from the Counterfeit Trinity. see also Rev. 17:12

The word [1, G2847] kokkinos, refers to the crimson or scarlet color which was produced from the berry of the "ilex coccifera;" these "berries" are the clusters of eggs of a female insect, the "kermes" [resembling the cochineal] and when collected and pulverized produces a red which was used in dyeing scarlet cloth. The color is so steadfast that it was one of the most difficult dyes to remove from clothing. So when Isaiah compares sins leaving its stubborn stain upon our consciences, he is saying in Is. 1:18, "Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: 'though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.'"

Again the [2]blasphemy and insults against the Name is emphasized. (Have you ever wondered why the name Jesus or another influential name in history or modern times, is the name that is most commonly used as a swear word? When in Ephesians 3:15 it states this: "Every family in heaven and on earth originates in Him (Elohiym); Theirs is humanity's family name and They remain the authentic identity of every nation." Also while in Ephesians look with me at 1:21, GOD (Elohiym) has given Jesus a Name that is beyond comparison above any other name in the heavenly realm or upon the earth for all time and eternity! The salvation that he works is the greatest source of frustration and embarrassment to the religious systems of this world. What the Name of Jesus represents puts religion out of business!

Now the imagery of Daniel 7:3 and Rev. 17:8 are the "wild Beast from the sea," as in Dan. 7:17 and 23.

Rev. 15:7, These golden fire - pans were loaded with the entire meaning of the sacrifice! Filled, (G1073) gemo, to be full, from [3] gomos, load, cargo.)

The woman was draped in purple and scarlet fabric, festooned and sprinkled with golden glitter and ornaments. She was elaborately decorated with gold, precious stones and pearls, holding a golden [1] cup in her hand which was 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 the religious systems to. "Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the [1, G4221] cup [poterion] and the dish, but inside you are filthy - full of greed and self - in- interest's, or indulgences! You are like beautifully decorated tombs on the outside, desperately trying to hide the stench of decaying corpses within'"(Mat. 23:25- 27) [2, G946] dbelugma derivative of dbeo - to stink, smell to high heaven.

The Harlot represents the counterfeit [1, G4221] cup poterion of covenant to the cup of the LORD.

Corinthians 10:16, "The cup [(G4221) poterion] of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

1Corinthians 10:21, "You cannot drink the cup [poterion] when He had supped, saying, 'This cup [poterion] is the new testament in My blood: this do, as often as you drink in remembrance of Me.'"

1Corinthians 11:25, "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 often as you drink in remembrance of Me.'"

The covenant cup of the LORD communicates the redeemed life of our origin and design incarnate in our person and our total fellowship and celebrated in our every meal!)

The word written upon her forehead expose her mystery identity: 'Babylon the Great, the Mother of the Whores and the filth of the Earthy!' (Roman harlots wore a label with their names on their brows.) The woman I saw was intoxicated with the blood of the [1] Saints and the blood of [2] those who bear the testimony of Jesus. This left me mesmerized, pondering what I saw, desiring to understand the context of it all. ( The cup she drank represented her opposition to everything that the blood of Jesus communicates. She was intoxicated with the thought that accused, sinful humanity could be reckoned blameless Saints by the blood of the Lamb. Rev. 7:9, 13-14, also Rev. 12:11, Mikael and his Shepherd - Messengers [representing the entire Host of Heaven - including all the multitudes previously mentioned in revelation] conquered the Dragon because of the blood of the little Lamb and the word of their testimony!

Also Rev. 16:19, "And the great city split into three portions and the cities of the nations fell and Babylon the great was remembered in the cup of GOD'S [1] great passion and [2] desire to bring everything to conclusion." (The word [1, translated Saints, G2372, from G2380] thumos, passion and [2, translated as, those who bear the testimony of Jesus, G3709 from G3713] oregomai, to stretch one's self out in order to touch or to grasp something, to reach after with intense desire.) The Shepherd - Messenger said to me, "Why were you so perplexed? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and the Beast carrying her; Also the meaning of his seven heads and ten horns."

Now with the last passage I will leave it with you until our next posting. And remember that I saved this because there are million upon millions who have been indoctrinated with that no one can understand Revelation, and second that they are to be subservient to the religious system of some church.
