Revelation 14:8 (KJV)
8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
The second angel cries out that Babylon is fallen and has made all nations drink of the wine of her fornication. This message went out to the fallen Protestant denominations during the Advent movement in the mid 1800's and continues this day as their apostasy is even more of a stench in the nostrils of Jehovah now than it was then. The Protestant and Orthodox churches along with their mother Roman Catholicism constitute Mystery Babylon along with other false religions of the world.
Roman Catholicism has been fallen since it's development in the 4th century so it is the Protestant denominations that are primarily described in the second angel's message. The Protestant reformation brought many good things to Christianity however they stopped reforming and soon became the cage of every unclean and hateful bird. Protestantism refused to conform to the law of Jehovah notably the 4th commandment of the decalogue. The trickle down effect of their lawlessness invited foul spirits into their congregations and a spirit of rebellion which according to 1 Samuel 15:23 is equivalent to witchcraft.
The wine spoken of here represents false doctrine and the fornication mentioned is spiritual. The greek word for fornication is "porneia" (strongs 4202) and means "harlotry (including adultery and incest), homosexuality, lesbianism, intercourse with animals: figuratively, idolatry: - fornication, worship of idols, of the defilement of idolatry, as incurred by eating the sacrifices offered to idols.
The Protestant Churches teach many false doctrines, a few are listed below:
-Celebration of pagan holidays such as Xmas, Easter and even halloween
-Promotion of the Eucharist
- the natural immortality of the soul
-eternal torment
- Sunday sacredness
- The trinity doctrine
-infant baptism
-God's law being done away with
The nations have drunken the wine of Babylon's spiritualism. The natural immortality of the soul is one of the most poisonous doctrines which leads to huge deceptions. Many have been deceived by lying familiar spirits thinking these are dead loved ones. The calling on of dead loved one's spirits is big business in today's market place. Even professed Christians have taken part in this abominable practice following in the footsteps of the Roman Church.
The deceived Christians of Protestantism have even bought into the lie of deceivers who say they died and went to heaven or hell. These false brethen have even wrote books and have had movies made describing their afterlife experiences. These liars have even profited off this deception as they have money hand over fist due to their lying stories. The book and movie "Heaven is for real" is a perfect example of the dangers of spiritualism (natural immortality of the soul). A little boy claimed he died and went to heaven and his dad took his story and went nationwide with it and wrote a book, a movie was made, appearances on Christian radio shows. Professed Christians the world over bought into this lie. Eventually the child grew up and told the truth that this was all a lie. The damage had been done and the Father of this child made a lot of money off this disgusting lie. Satan used a child to deceive professed Christians with the lie of the natural immortality of the soul.
While the nominal Churches of Christendom have rejected Jehovah's Holy Sabbath day they have embraced Rome's pagan feasts. One of the main reasons for this rejection is the lie that the Sabbath is a bondage. Yet these same Christians will bend over backwards to celebrate Xmas and easter and even halloween. Sometimes even getting into debt buying presents. Although most Christians of Protestantism don't keep Sunday as a Sabbath they do celebrate Sunday as the day for corporate worship. By doing this they pay homage to the Roman Catholic Church who has said that Sunday is their mark of authority. These Protestants will even say that Sunday is the Lord's day and say that the Sabbath was for the Jews only. These Protestants thereby show their loyalty to Rome and it's Pope by disregarding the true day of worship and rest which is the Seventh-day of the week.
Mark 2:27-28 (KJV)
27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
The Sabbath was given to man as a day of solemn rest and communion with Jehovah and His Son Jesus. The lying denominations say it was only for the ethnic Jewish nation.
Infant baptism is another false doctrine promoted by some mainline Protestant denominations.
Acts 8:36-38 (KJV)
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
The above passage clearly states that the requirement for baptism is to believe with all your heart that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. This belief is an impossibility for a baby or toddler. Yet many Protestants practice this heresy and by doing so show their allegiance to Papal Rome. Many Christians in the past were killed for following the biblical method of baptism. Protestants and Catholics alike participated in these persecutions.
Eternal torment is the sister of the natural immortality of the soul. This abominable doctrine has cast Jehovah as a torturing tyrant. Satan created this lie to deceive the world into looking at Jehovah and His Son as unjust. It's a doctrine that has contributed to many rejecting Christianity.
Ecclesiastes 9:5 (KJV)
5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
The Protestant Churches have ignored clear scripture on the state of the dead. They have promoted the lies of Mystery Babylon that teaches that Satan rules over a spiritual underworld of torment. These so called Churches have helped poison the world with this false teaching as movies are made, books are written with fanciful tales of the afterlife where people are tormented. This heresy has even been used as a scare tactic by Churches to keep their parishioners in line and beat them into blind submission.
The promotion of the Eucharist in Protestant Churches is increasing and some of the mainline Protestant denominations have perpetuated this doctrine ever since they left Rome. Their are different variations of the Eucharist promoted by these apostate Churches but nonetheless they all borrow from Mama (Catholicism). The apostate Churches have tried to incorporate a mysticism into the memorial meal some even borrowing parts of the transubstantiation where it is said the bread and wine literally become the blood and body of Christ. The scripture is clear that the communion meal is a memorial of Christ's death.
1 Corinthians 11:24 (KJV)
24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Another bitter taste of the false wine of Babylon is the teaching that Jehovah's law is done away with and that we don't have to keep it anymore after the cross. Due to a desire for convenience and a rebelious spirit, the Churches of Christendom teach that we no longer need to keep the commandments of God. They even go so far as to say that Jehovah's commandments are a bondage. They actually speak evil of the law of God. They accuse Paul of allowing for the breaking of God's law. Their vilification of Jehovah's law is contrary to the testimony of the bible. Jesus Christ has the final word on whether the law of Jehovah is binding or not.
Matthew 5:17-19 (KJV)
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus words should be terrifying for the pulpit preachers of Christendom. It couldn't be any clearer, those who break the least of the commandments and teach others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. Fulfill is from the greek word "pleroo" (strongs 4137) meaning to make full, to cause to abound, to render perfect, to carry out." We also fulfill Jehovah's law when we obey it (Romams 8:4). The preachers of Christendom pervert the meaning of fulfill and say that means the law no longer needs to be kept. They will answer to our Jehovah and Saviour Jesus Christ for this blasphemy against the Father.
Heaven and earth have not passed away and so even the smallest part of the law continues to exist. Jehovah's word endures forever (1 Peter 1:25), including the parts that command His laws (Isaiah 40:8).
Isaiah 8:20 (KJV)
20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
This is what the bible says about those Pastor's who teach that it's okay to break Jehovah's law or that the law doesn't need to be kept.
Revelation 22:14 (KJV)
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Look what Jesus says, those who do His Father's commandments will be allowed into heavenly Canaan and eat of the tree of life. Does this mean that those who don't keep the commandments of God will not enter into New Jerusalem? Jesus words certainly seem to indicate that. Why take a chance? Eternal life is at stake!!
Romans 3:31 (KJV)
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Many try to use Paul as an excuse for breaking Jehovah's law but look at what Paul says above. The greek word for establish is "histemi" (strongs 2476) and means "stand still, to erect, to cause or make to stand, to bid to stand by, to place, to set, to make firm, to establish, to be kept intact".
Get the point? Paul in no way was saying that faith makes the law void but to the contrary, he says that we "make firm, fix and erect and make to stand" the law.
Acts 28:17 (KJV)
17 And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
The above passage also reiterates that Paul did not teach against the law. He neither taught against the law nor broke it himself.
Another false doctrine of Babylon is none other than the trinity doctrine. This doctrine corrupts who God is and who His Son is and what the Holy Spirit is. Instead of a literal Sonship as the bible clearly teaches, the trinity doctrine teaches a metaphysical Sonship of Christ or as many modern trinitarian's teach, a metaphorical Sonship. Either viewpoint is blasphemous as they deny the literal Sonship of Christ. What does the bible say about who God is and who Jesus is?
Ephesians 4:4-6 (KJV)
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Look at verse 6, the bible clearly teaches that there is one God not 3 gods or a 3 in 1 god.
Who did Jesus say was the one true God?
John 17:3 (KJV)
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
Jude 4 (KJV)
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Lord God (the Father) is the only Master God. Notice the distinction made between the only Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ. We have two divine beings here, one is the Lord God who is clearly the Father and one is the Lord Jesus Christ His Son. The Lord God is called the only Lord God in this passage meaning He is the Master God and the only one. There is no trinity god as the Father is the Almighty only Lord God. The Holy Spirit nor Jesus are the only Lord God. Jesus is the only Lord God's Son making him fully Divine and God but not the only Lord God. The Holy Spirit is the actual Spirit of the only Lord God and His Son.
The greek word for only is "monos" and means "alone (without a companion), self, by (one's self), only, merely, destitute of help, forsaken".
Isaiah 42:8 (ASV)
8 I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images.
God declares that His name is Jehovah and that He will not give His glory to another. There is only one being that the Father shares His glory with and that is His Son also named Jehovah. The Father refrences false gods and their graven images. The trinity doctrine takes glory away from the Father and gives to a 3 in 1 god and also gives the Father's glory to "God the Holy Spirit". This robs the Father of worship that He deserves. The Father is the supreme ruler over all creation. He shares His glory of being the Supreme unbegotten, uncreated ruler of all creation with no one. Only the Father fits this description. The Son is the Father's only begotten Son and shares in His Father's glory as His Son. However, as the Almighty eternal God, the Father shares that glory with no one including the philosophical idol known as the trinity god.
1 Corinthians 15:24-28 (KJV)
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
This is another passage that destroys the pagan trinity doctrine as Jesus will turn the kingdom over to the Father at the end of the millennium and when the last enemy is defeated at the second death which is death itself after the second resurrection. Verse 28 says that the Son will be subject unto the Father so that God be all in all. The Father will be ultimate ruler of eternity once the millennium concludes. It will not be a trinity god ruling over us. It couldn't be because it clearly says that Jesus will be subject to God so that God be all in all. The Father is clearly the one spoken of here and not a trinity. The Father being the one true God harmonizes all over the bible.
1 Corinthians 8:6 (KJV)
6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Paul makes it crystal clear that there is One God not 3 nor a 3 in 1 god. Paul identifies this one God as the Father. Here, we also see the distinction made between the Father who is identified as the one God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Understanding the identity of the God of the Bible is crucial in these last days as it is the trinity doctrine more than any other doctrine, that is uniting the Protestant denominations with Roman Catholicism.
If the Protestant denominations would have kept on reforming and left the trinity doctrine where it belonged (Rome), then they would have had a near fail safe protection against being deceived into ecumenism with Rome. Many will fall away from the faith because of this doctrine. We know that our Father in heaven winks at ignorance (Acts 17:30) however, He then expects men everywhere to repent.
I truly believe there will be many trinitarian's who will be in the celestial city of God as they worshipped God according to the light they had, however in these last days with precious truths being restored there is no excuse to not be a Berean and stay in ignorance. The 144,000 will have pure worship before God and will not fornicate with the Churches of Babylon nor her false doctrines. In order to be among the 144,000 you cannot believe in nor worship a trinity god. This abominable doctrine is leading many astray and it is the chief doctrine that is bringing the Protestants, Orthodox and Roman Catholic Churches together. All those part of this ecumenical movement will have mark of the beast or the name of the beast or the number of his name. The trinity is definitely part of the beast name, number and mark.
All of the false doctrines represented by "wine" here in the passage are the reasons for Jehovah's wrath being stored up against Christendom's Churches.
