Reasons Why Catholic Church or Vatican or Rome or Pope are not a Babylon or Antichrist!

1. Mary is not pagan earth goddesses because she is the mother of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She was qualified to give birth to the sinless Son of God because God chose her and miraculously caused her to conceive by the "overshadowing" of the Holy Spirit. Luke 1:42 says she is blessed among women and has a favor from God. All generations will call her blessed (Lk 1:48 ).So definitely she is not a pagan Goddesses. 2. By worshipping saints and angels Catholic Church can not be accused as pagan worshippers. Bible shows us the importance of the witness of angels and saints and Bible teaches the communion of saints (Luke 12:8-9). Saints in heaven are as the angels of God, they are intimately involved in man’s salvation under Jesus Christ. When one prays to them, they in turn pray to God who commonly grants His graces on their behalf and because of their close relationship with Him. The Bible also teaches that angels are present in the assemblies of the faithful.(Ref verses 1 Corinthians 11:10, Hebrews 12:22-23, 2 Thessalonians 1:10, Daniel 7:10, Matthew 25:31, 1 Corinthians 6:2, Romans 8:38-39, Psalms 90:11, Revelation 8:2-4). God commands the use of statues and images for religious purposes.( Exodus 25:18-19, Exodus 26:1, Numbers 21:8, Genesis 33:3) 3. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican is not a huge importer and exporter of cargoes of cinnamon and spice, of incense, myrrh and frankincense, of wine and olive oil, of fine flour and wheat; cattle and sheep; horses and carriages; and human beings sold as slaves. (Revelation 18:13) 4. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican doesn't match the description of the beast as claimed. 5. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican or Pope is not a Babylon because it has not caused the slain of Israel and the slain of all the Earth (Jeremiah 51:49) nor Devoured and crushed Gods people. (Jeremiah 51:34) 6. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican is not Abundant in treasures (Jeremiah 51:13) . 7. Antichrist is a liar and denies that Jesus is the Christ, and he also denies the Father and the Son (1John 2:22). Catholic Church has taught for almost 2,000 years that Jesus Christ had come in the flesh, that He is God Incarnate, the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity – God. Hence the Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican or Pope they do not meet none of the qualifications of being an Antichrist or Babylon 8. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican or Pope is not proud, boastful and arrogant, drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus((Revelation 18:7, Revelation 17:6).Hence its not a Babylon. 9. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican or pope did not keep God's people captive as prisoners and their Trusts is in not in wickedness (Isaiah 14:17, Isaiah 47:10). Hence again proved it’s not a Babylon. 10) Babylon has influenced the other nations of the earth to partake in her fornication. They are drunk with the wine of her fornication. They are filled with God's wrath as they partake in fornication which is adultery, homosexuality, lesbianism, sexual sins etc. and also idol worship. Worshiping things outside and contrary to the Lord (Jeremiah 51:7). So Again Catholic Church does not have these qualities. Catholic Church teaches adultry,homosexuality,abortions and all sexual sins are sins and are always violations of divine and natural law.(Isaiah 13:19). 11 Revelation 18:2 says Babylon is the dwelling place for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast. The Catholic Church is a house of God, Guided by The Holy Spirit Filled with the Glory of the Lord (1Kings 8:10-13) which is Offering Sacrifice All Day, Every Day, and in Every Place( Malachi 1:11) and also its the Church of the Saints.( Psalms 149:1 ) 12. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican is not an economically superficial nation (Jeremiah 50:37, 51:13; and Revelation 18:3, 19) not populated by "mixed and mingled people" (Jeremiah 50:37) and not a land “that dwells upon many waters” (Jeremiah 51:13) and certainly its not a country that has defeated mighty kingdoms through war (Jeremiah 50:23, 51:20-21). 13. Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican does not have mighty military power (Jeremiah 51:53) has not turned away from the God of Israel nor rejoiced in opposing him and his chosen people Israel (Jeremiah 50:11, 24, 29, 38). 14.Since Babylon is noted for A Wealthy Nation(Rev 18:17,19), An Educated Nation(Jer 50:35) Abundant in Natural Resources(Jer 51:13) A Nation Full of Idols(Jer 50:38) Has a Space Program(Jer 51:53), Lots of Whirring(Is 18:1) So, for those that insist that Babylon MUST be Catholic Church or Rome or Vatican to fulfill Bible prophecy, I say it does not fit the above Scriptures.Since its not bordered on many waters , not the world's military hammer , not full of wise men , not a mingled people nation ,not the world's largest importer , not a new/young nation, certainly does not have plenty of water and certainly doesn't take space shots .
