Revelation 17 & 18
1. Babylon is alluring
“We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us, like an ignorant child who goes on making mud pies in the slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are too easily pleased.” – CS Lewis, Weight of Glory
2. Babylon hates the truth
3. Babylon is deceptive
4. Babylon will come to an end
5. God will righteously judge the world
-For following demons (vs. 1-2)
-For idolatry (vs. 3)
-For unforgiven sin (vs. 4-5)
-For pride (vs. 6-8)
6. The world will be disappointed
7. Only one King and kingdom will remain
