One of the most shocking passages in Revelation isn't about the Beast, but about the businessmen.In Revelation 18:9-19, the kings of the earth mourn. The merchants of the earth mourn. The shipmasters of the sea mourn. But they aren't grieving because evil has been judged. They aren't grieving because innocent people have suffered. They're grieving because Babylon's economy has collapsed.What does John tell us about the merchants? What is Babylon? Why does Revelation connect political power, economic power, luxury, commerce, and spiritual corruption? And why do these ancient warnings feel so relevant in a world dominated by global trade, corporate influence, consumer culture, and endless pursuit of wealth?In this episode of Truth at All Costs, we explore Revelation 18:9-19, the fall of Babylon, the merchants of the earth, and the sobering warning that every civilization faces when profit becomes more important than truth.🥃 Stay until the end for the Truth at All Costs toast.
