What religions are meant when God said " Get out of her, my people,..." at Revelation 18;4,5?

Question

Just what religions have committed sins against God. And what ARE those sins.

Answer 1

All religions that have anything to do with any pagan celebrations or doctrines, any involved in politics and war, All religions that teach false doctrines,and traditions of men,These are the sins of Babylon the Great that true Christians are told to get out of, you ask which religions have committed these sins well all the worldly religions that are not doing God's Will but instead are teaching things not backed up in the Bible things like the trinity the teaching of purgatory in hell, the teaching that everyone no matter what lyfestyle they lead will go to heaven, the teaching of once saved always saved, the teaching of the immortal soul, Christmass Easter, New year celebrations. Halloween, the teaching that Jesus is God and or equal to God, the teaching that when we die we go straight to heaven. All these teachings are not backed in the Bible. So Babylon the Great includes all those religions that teach things that are doctrines and traditions of men rather than the teachings from God in the Bible.

Answer 2

The false religion the Bible talks about is clearly defined.

1.) REvelations 17:1-9, Verse 9 shows the physical location. Where are there seven "mountians" or hills?

2.) Daniel 7:25 shows an attitude of rejecting the Law and Festivals of God for their own traditions.

The Bible clearly marks the Roman Catholic Church (Eastern and Western) and it's offshoots and all chruches that were associated with it, including all Protestant chruches and their offshoots as the religion we are to come out of. The Sunday day of worship is the seal of the authority of the Popes

This would include the "Jehovah" Witnesses and the Mormons, as they also worship on Sunday (That is only ONE of their errors).

The sign of the Beast is Sunday worship. It is the one practice instituted by the RCC that gives the RCC claim to authority over "christianity". (Go to "Rome's Challenge" on link above).

As to what sins they are commiting: 1 John 3:4
Romans 6:12-16

the next passage of scripture is really important, because all too often the clear word of Yashua gets lost when people are trying to prove some un-Biblcial "Pauline Doctrine";

Matthew 5:17 ¶ Let there be no thought that I have come to put an end to the law or the prophets.....

(This is the opposite of what most chuches teach!)

..... I have not come for destruction, but to make complete......

(To "fulfill", as the KJV has it, Yahsua fulfilled the sections of the Law and prophets that spoke of His coming. If you use the sense of "complete" as the Bible in Basic English has it here, there is a greater depth of understanding the commands of the Law because of the infusion of the Holy Spirit into the believer's psyche, in other words, we are to come to understand the Law from a much broader perspective than ever before, as show in the rest of Matthew 5).

......18 Truly I say to you, Till heaven and earth come to an end, ....

(This has not happened yet has it? Not last time I looked outside anyways...)

........not the smallest letter or part of a letter will in any way be taken from the law, till all things are done.......

(Doesn't sound like Yashua planned on nailing any Law to the Cross did He? Also, there is a lot of prophecy in the Law that has not happened yet)

......19 Whoever then goes against the smallest of these laws, .....

(WOW! Pretty strict! The Jews teach that there are at least 613 Laws.)

.......teaching men to do the same, will be named least in the kingdom of heaven;......

(Every Sunday keeping church is doing this. See the 4th Commandment Exodus 20:8. Read the Torah)

....but he who keeps the laws, teaching others to keep them, will be named great in the kingdom of heaven.....

(So keeping those "old" Laws doesn't sound like such a bad thing, does it?)

Religions which teach that the Law is done away are going directly against the clear word of Yashua, and Paul and anyother Biblical writer that you want to name.

If your religion is based on anything other than the Bible, then get out of it now.

Edit:
Terisina, I did not say that the JW's worshiped the Sabbath. In fact I notice from your post that the JW's worship on any old day of the week, OTHER than the Sabbath. It really doesn't matter what they call their Sunday Tuesday Thursday meetings, they are still not keeping the Sabbath of the Bible and thus are disobeying God. If you want to "work you fingers to the bone" searching for the truth, I suggest you get a JW Greek Interlinear and read Hebrews 4:9 and get started.

Answer 3

all religions that are practicing rituals and traditions of men connected to paganism

being a true Christian is to follow the example of Christ (1 Peter 2:21; John 13:15; 1 John 2:6) including all the things he taught his Apostles to write for our instruction (2 Timothy 3:16)

Yhshua/Jesus warned that there would be many false christians, claiming to believe in him yet not doing the will of his Father. And that there would only be a few *true* Christians doing the will of his Almighty Father YHWH/Jehovah (see Matthew 7:13-23)

So what did Christ do that we must do in order to be *true* Christians?

1. Pray to and serve "the only true God" (see John 17:3) the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (see Acts 3:13) whose name is YHWH
see also;
Matthew 22:37/Deuteronomy 6:5
Matthew 14:23
Mark 1:35
Mark 6:46
Mark 14:32
Luke 6:12
Matthew 6:9
John 20:17
John 17:1-5
John 5:19
John 14:28
Mark 10:18
Matthew 26:39
John 8:17-18
Mark 13:32
Matthew 20:23
Matthew 3:17

2. love everyone (see Matthew 22:39; Mark 12:31) and never harm or kill another human being
see also;
Matthew 5:44-48
Matthew 26:52
Luke 6:27
Luke 10:27
John 13:34, 35
John 15:17
1 Peter 2:23
1 Peter 3:9
Romans 12:17
Romans 13:10
2 Timothy 2:24
1 Corinthians 16:14
1 John 3:9-15
1 John 4:20

3. Preach YHWH's Kingdom which He has appointed His only-begotten Son Yhshua to rule over
see;
Matthew 24:14
Luke 4:43
Luke 10:1-3
Acts 5:42
Acts 8:4
Acts 20:20
1 Corinthians 9:16
Romans 10:15
2 Timothy 4:2-5
Matthew 4:23a
Matthew 9:35a
Luke 9:6a
1 Peter 2:21

4. be "no part of the world" of human kingdoms/governments/politics
see;
John 18:36
Daniel 2:44
Luke 4:5-8
James 4:4
John 15:19
John 17:14
Acts 5:29
1 John 2:15
Romans 12:2
John 14:30
2 Corinthians 4:4
Ephesians 2:2
1 John 5:19

5. Yhshua said that many false christians would be identified because they would not be doing the will of YHWH (Matthew 7:21)
So we must be careful not to mix traditions, rituals and festivals originally designed for false pagan Roman gods into our worship of the only true God.
See (and note that everywhere it says LORD is where Christ‘s Father‘s name YHWH/Jehovah used to be);
Deuteronomy 12:30
Exodus 34:15
Deuteronomy 20:18
Deuteronomy 8:19
Deuteronomy 13:13
Deuteronomy 18:10-13
Deuteronomy 32:16
Judges 2:3
Jeremiah 7:17-20
Acts 7:41-43

naturally, no one would ever follow the above examples of Christ if they did not believe and put faith in the fact that he was sent by his Almighty Father YHWH as our only means of salvation. One must accept and believe and have faith that Yhshua was sent by YHWH as our savior.

agape!

Answer 4

1 Timothy 4
1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.


The golden city is Rome, this is the seat of satan (Vatican City). Satan has used the Papacy to deceive the whole world. Everything that people call holy has come out of Rome not the Bible and you should know what religion comes out of Rome

Answer 5

The Sunday go to meeting ones.

God says the sabbath is the sign for his people.

I wonder what sign the beast is? hmm?

Spiritual Adultery. They have played the harlot with other gods by accepting their customs and traditions including but not excluded to Easter, Christmas, Sunday, worship of the queen of heaven (one of Marys titles) false doctrine of eternal soul, false doctrine of once saved always saved, false doctrine of sloppy agape (God loves you so much that if you spit in His eye right up to your death he will forgive you as long as you say "I believe in Jesus"), the false doctrine of the law being nailed to the cross, the false doctrine of all meat being clean and fit for food, the false doctrine of.... I haven't got all night you figure it out.

Repent brothers and sisters the Kingdom of God is at hand.

Answer 6

i believe their is only one god ,hence it stands to reason there can only be one true religion...the people who have found this religion live in this world like all of us,but take no part in this world....eg don't get involve in wars or racial hate,vote for governments..this i feel also applies to the world empire of false religion.....so i guess it means all religion christian or not..as to which is the right religion i will leave that for you to figger out....bear in mind that Jesus said by there fruits you know them.....and if you really want to know ask god to show you the truth

Answer 7

The vast majority of religions fall into this catergory. It is any religion who does not follow the Bilble 100% and who follow the pagan traditions of man.

Answer 8

The scripture you refer to speaks of the Roman Catholic System, probably because it appears Christian and dominates the world.

All religions who do not believe Jesus is God and all those who do not solely follow the Bible have committed sins against God.

I would not be able to write all the sins these religions have committed against God, but it would be many.

Answer 9

All the ones that follow God only by name...and not doing what ever it is written in the Bible, but in there own books or traditions.

Answer 10
