"Babylon's money" is a very good description of the federal reserve's money. in bible prophecy the last great empire of man is called Babylon. This is a new version of the ancient Babylon from 2500 years ago. The old Babylon was headquartered in Iraq. The new one - in our country. The christian bible has end-times prophecies throughout it including new testament and old testament. Babylon is said to be a nation that functions as a city even though it is many cities, it is an expensive place and able to import lavishly, it is a global empire that corrupts the leaders of the various nations. This last great empire of man is to be overthrown and completely destroyed in only one hours' time.
I take my tag line from Psalm 137 where the slave-nation occupied by Babylon is described. the people of that nation mourn when they remember the promises of god previously given to them. They feel out of place as a slave nation occupied. They look forward to the day when this occupier Babylon is destroyed even though it means the destruction of their own nation.
this last empire of Babylon is very hard on the poor. They also corrupt and ruin people (morally). When god is tired of listening to the poor call out to him he will act and pull a trigger. This will release the final events where Babylon is destroyed in 1 hours' time. it will come by complete surprise. It says there are 10 kingdoms all previously subservient to Babylon, but in rebellion due to a deep resentment of Babylon. and these 10 kingdoms will conspire together to destroy Babylon.
who are these 10 kingdoms? They're nations like China, India, Russia, Japan, Germany, etc. One day they will unleash hell on our domestic territory. God will save from destruction those he wishes to save. and at that time in the midst of this destruction, Jesus will return.
Jesus will build a kingdom of heaven here on earth. Some will be admitted into this kingdom, some will be excluded. This is what the rapture verses describe and it is specifically stated that it will happen when Jesus returns. People the world over will be judged. The dead will be raised so that they can be judged. We will be judged by our works when we are alive. and for some there will be profound choices to make.
So our nation is to be used in a prominent place to usher in this era. But it will involve the destruction of our nation.
the lamb will lie down with the lion and together they will eat straw. the child will walk up to the lion and pet him. and until this 2'nd coming people around the world will focus on our nation. They will have an extreme fascination with these events to occur in our country. and when this new kingdom of heaven is built, they will have forgotten all about us and will focus on things completely different. Some Americans will play a prominent role in building this kingdom though.
