Or does the great harlot title extend to all of the sects of Christendom that hold to the apostate origin teachings?
Like ,trinity, immortal soul, hellfire?

trinity is not in the Bible, hell is.
Jesus being an angel, specifically Michael, is definitely not.

Catholicism may be a good candidate,but not for teaching,the trinity,immortal soul or hellfire.The Bible teaches all of those although in the case of the Trinity, we are the ones who put a name to it ,the Bible just teaches it.The thing that messes up the Roman Catholics are the Extra-Biblical teachings.No where in the Bible does it tell us to pray to the Saints as Intersessors,or use a Priest as one In fact in the New Testament,as St.Paul sets up the Church,there are no Priests there are Pastors and Elders and Decons(see 1&2nd Timothy and Titus for ex.)and they are preferrably to be married,to 1 wife.You won't find the word priest again until Jesus returns,and the faithful become kings and priests to the Lord.Rev.19and 20 speak of Hellfire and the Old and New Testaments speak of the Immortal Soul.Ecclessiastes talks of how when a man dies his soul returns to He that made it.And of course therare too many references in the N.T to mention.Paul says just for ex."The dead in Christ shall rise 1rst(at His 2nd coming i.e. the rapture 7yrs before Jesus wipes out the Anti- Christ)and then we who are alive and left shall be caught up(snatched away that's the meaning of the rapture)to be with the Lord forever.

The great harlot depicted in the Bible book of Revelation is the composite world-wide empire of false religion, encompassing Catholicism and many other so-called Christian and non-Christian denominations. It is referred to as "Babylon the Great".
It has been condemned and will be destroyed, along with any other faiths that teach scriptural lies and untruths, such as the trinity, hellfire, and the immortality of the soul. Such teachings as these are NOT in the Bible.

You got it!
Apostate.
What is this about the Trinity?
So you would like to believe in Three Gods.
Hell is in the Bible.
By believing in Jesus you will have everlasting life---Duh! Doesn't this mean to you immortal, or do you think you are taking that body to heaven with you?
Let me try to set this forth for the Nth. time.
God is Holy
God is Spirit
God is the Holy Spirit.
He is the Father of Spirits---Heb 12:9 Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
That which proceeds from the Father is His Son.
The Word was GOD---John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Who became flesh? The Word. God became flesh.
Are you with me so far?
Who was the Word? Jesus was the Word in carnet.
The Word proceeds from the Father. The Word is God.
The Word resides in the Father's bosom. As your words reside in your bosom.
Therefore the three are ONE> HELLO!

The great Harlot was Pharisaic Judaism. Revelation is a story about the past, not the future.

You better not take a chance that Hell is not real.You need to do away with the Bible for it is God Word that tells us that all that have rejected what the Lord Jesus Christ did on the cross for your sins. He died for your sins. Mark 9: 44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Matthew 25: 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

Like, sheeeesh. If the Creator is as intolerant of humans' behaviour as the various holy men and women tell us, then he makes Job look extremely impatient. We are way overdue for a species destroying event.

One way of reading this is that as the church (historically Catholic) gradually became intertwined with national governments and politics it was sold out and no longer purely belonging to God. In the current world any church that sells itself out to gain worldly power could be seen in a similar light.
