Where we make a difference in People’s lives


Turn to Revelation 17




Revelation 17
New International Version (NIV)
Babylon, the Prostitute on the Beast
17 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits by many waters. 2 With her the kings of the earth committed adultery, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.”
3 Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. 4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. 5 The name written on her forehead was a mystery:
babylon the great
the mother of prostitutes
and of the abominations of the earth.
6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of God’s holy people, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.
When I saw her, I was greatly astonished. 7 Then the angel said to me: “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns. 8 The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.
9 “This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. 10 They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while. 11 The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
12 “The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. 13 They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. 14 They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.”
15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and languages. 16 The beast and the ten horns you saw will hate the prostitute. They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked; they will eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 17 For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish his purpose by agreeing to hand over to the beast their royal authority, until God’s words are fulfilled. 18 The woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.”



Chapter 17 begins with an angel and called the apostle John to see the punishment of the great prostitute of the world in verse 1. The prostitute caused kings of the earth to fall and the rest of the people to drink the wine of the adulteries she committed in verse 2.

In verse 3, John was called to the wilderness by the Holy Spirit of God. The prostitute was sitting on a beast clothed in scarlet and had seven heads and ten horns and with a lot of names on him that was blasphemous. In verse 4, the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet with the glittering of gold, pearls and precious stones. She had a golden cup which was filled with things of filth and abmoniations and adulteries. On verse 5, she had a writing on her forehead as well.

In verse 6, she was drunk with the blood of the saints that gave testimony of Jesus and the holy people of God. In verse 7, John was astonished in what he seen, but the angel explains about the prostitute in the rest of verse 7 and 8.

In verse 9, some symbolization is revealed. The seven heads are seven hills, and the history of the hills is discussed in verse 10 and the beast is mentioned in verse 11, and was symbolized as the eighth king and the ten kings that the horns represent in verse 12 will receive one hour of power with the beast, false prophet and Satan. In verse 13, the kings will give their power and authority to the beast after the hour is expired. In verse 14, they will have war the Lamb, which represents the Lord Jesus Christ as he is the Lord of Lords and King of Kings and have the saints of God on his side.

In verse 15, more symbolization is revealed as the waters which the prostitute sit on represent the multitudes of people,nations and languages of the world in the last days. The beast and the kings in verse 16, will bring the prostitute to

In verse 15, more symbolization is revealed as the waters which the prostitute sit on represent the multitudes of people,nations and languages of the world in the last days. The beast and the kings in verse 16, will bring the prostitute to ruin and shame as they will strip her naked and burn her with fire. In verse 17, the beast will be granted royalty from the plans of God's words.
In verse 18, the woman represented the ruler of the great city of Babylon, (modern day Baghdad) and the ruler of all the kings.

Next week we will start Revelation 18.
