This book is a commentary on the 18th chapter of the Bible’s Book of the Revelation. It is, furthermore, a detailing of America’s place and role in the Bible’s portrayal of end-time things, or, events and happenings that are to occur before the end of the world, as we know it. Thus, the work is a sterling, pungent and stirring fly-in-the-face of current and prevailing evangelical and fundamentalist dogma which portends that God somehow omitted any mention of the most powerful, most significant nation of all time, from His determination and ambitions pertaining to the culmination of life as we know it, in this most dangerous and deadliest of times.
America?In Bible prophecy?Consider:
She is as much known for her power, as for her prosperity; for her prestige, as for her privilege. There is none like her now. There has been none like her in the past. There will never be another like her in the future. Across the annals of time, throughout all the history of mankind, only two entities gracing the minds of men can claim her profile. Relished from afar with only the most grievous disgust, her being is confined to these last-days. From her conception (firmly rooted in antiquity), she was no greater than a specter in the mind, and yet as smoke in the eyes, of her Creator—having been clocked, catalogued and chronicled under the pseudonym “Babylon the Great”, for almost 2000 years. The amount of attention and detail given to her much desired, calamitous downfall, far surpassing that of any other single theme in the entire Apocalypse, makes her the lead-off witness in this Revelation of God’s determination for the close of the “latter-days”. Who, is she?
She is loved by most, envied and hated by some, needed by all. This makes Babylon the Great unmatched in every way among global entities, in these end-times.
Cosmopolitan, a free-trader, greatest military power of all time, no nation has ever been more blessed in virtually every sense of the word than Babylon the Great—not even the Apple of God’s Eye. Yet, as she is scrutinized daily, sifted and weighed in the balances 24/7, one sole determination for this end-times colossus, envy of thenations, has been hand-written upon the walls of her waning moments: for impact, for a dramatic and dynamic show of force, she must and she will be obliterated in under one hour.
To date, only one foot has ever fit her profile. The industrialized world will not be able to continue as is without her. Her influence upon the nations of the earth will have been beyond compare. Her loss and downfall will spell financial ruin and economic chaos the world over.
This book, Rain Drops, from Hell!…discusses thoroughly the 18th chapter of the Book of the Revelation. The section "America in Bible Prophecy", discusses the “who” behind the mask of Babylon the Great, as it establishes as well how and why there need not arise another foot to fill the shoe of this eschatological role, given that one already exists in exact conformity to Babylon’s description, in every detail. "How to kill a Super-Power" discusses at some length, history, current events and technologies (Pandora’s Box) that all coalesce so as to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Babylon the great is not Babylon, Iraq rebuilt by the beast or anyone else. "Trojan Horse: The Fifth Column" recognizes that in order to affect so colossal a collapse—within the shores and boundaries of mighty Babylon—some of the most advanced and technologically superior early warning and security equipment/systems on earth must be compromised, breeched, and thereby effectively circumnavigated. Trojan Horse further illustrates how 9/11 demonstrated in broad daylight just how such a breech could and doubtless will be carried out, imperiling the lives of over three hundred million unsuspecting souls.
Notwithstanding her placement in the Apocalyptic narrative, it is the fall of Babylon the Great that will open the gateway to the Apocalypse. This being the case, before either the events spelled out in the Revelation or those of the visions of the prophet Ezekiel can transpire (detailed in “A Muslim’s Nightmare”), Babylon the Great must and will fall, in the space of 60 minutes.
Excerpt
Jubilate! Babylon the Great is destroyed!
Here, in chapter 18, we are greeted with a proclamation; an open invitation, ringing throughout all the heavens, to jubilate! Not surprisingly, that jubilation centers in Heaven’s ecstasy and joy over the desecrated sight of Babylon the Great. But, at the end of chapter 17, the slate has been wiped clean of both Babylons (that is both Rome, Italy and Vatican City, world headquarters of the Great Whore, Babylon the Great.), with nary a second thought given to the demise of either. To whom then, does this Babylon the Great refer, and why such jubilation and the ensuing expressions of vitriol, laced throughout with Supreme disgust and disdain?
For starters one might do well to note that, notwithstanding the name chosen to represent her, and in spite of the reference by the end-times merchants and politicians of the nations to her as “that great city”, the fact is Babylon the Great here is not a city, at all. She is not ancient Babylon re-built (see the Conclusion). Interestingly, she displays none of the psychosis common to Babylon the Great of chapter 17. There is no evident personality disorder or conflicts. Her profile, and, her apparent standing and reception amongst the nations is markedly if not remarkably different than the known, historical relationship managed and maintained by the woman in either her ancient, purely secular role, or, her religious role as it spans the gap between those ancient years of her beginning and the present. Though the prophecy was written in the days when many lands and their peoples were known primarily by their chief city, and thus the people tended to think in those terms, Babylon the Great here is a strictly end-times entity, having no roots in antiquity (quite unlike her name sake in the “end-times” great whore, whose roots stretch from the ancient days of the Roman Empire, to the final days of history.). This “city”, like the concept(s) of the Book itself throughout, in the Mind of its Creator, was something totally foreign to the minds of the likes of John, in that day. They did not know her kind in their times. There have not been for centuries, are not now and will be no such city-states when she is finally knocked down in these last days; leveled to the ground, never to rise again. So, knowing then that she is not Babylon, Iraq rebuilt (as will be discussed briefly, shortly), and, if she is not the obvious in terms of the only known shoe that either can or could ever have fit the imprint perfectly, to a tee, who is she?
The profile of Babylon the Great is quite graphic and revealing. What do the particulars and themes surrounding that profile at this, apparently, the height of her glory reveal for us about Babylon the Great, and, how do they square with the particulars and themes surrounding the two Babylons discussed previously?
Profiling Babylon the Great
A specific set of qualifiers are given, which set this Babylon the Great apart:
1) she is cosmopolitan: figures prominently in the global political arena, and, in international affairs, for the most part, without the usual pressure of military occupation and domination
2) she has and maintains an aura/air, a flair, a charisma, a mannerism, that is, per God’s definition, manifestly Babylonian in nature
3) she has a definite bearing on global economics, and is heavily involved in international trade
4) being highly religious, she leads the world into fornication (service to false gods, in the name of the Living God), deceiving the nations with sorcery (heavy drug or narcotics trafficking, :23)
5) she is enormously wealthy through free trade with the nations
6) the nations are enormously wealthy by trading freely with her, the envy of other nations
7) she is haughty, extremely arrogant, cocky and self-reliant, overly self-satisfied
8) her swift, thorough and complete destruction—from which she will never recover—will spark an irreversible, crushing, world-spanning recession, plunging all the nations into an economic spiral of unparalleled proportions
9) her existence is primarily eschatological; that is, she exists only in the last days, with no other manifest ties to antiquity
