Revelation 18:4-5 (King James Version)

4And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.


Babylon is symbol for pagan religion. So if we are worshiping with a church which is not in line with God we are in Babylon. Most of you say that worshiping with them does not make you guilty but that is not Scriptural according to Jesus. If we are with them we are enablers because the church is expecting you to agree with them, especially big issues like the military and abortion. If we say we don't agree with them but still worship with them that makes us hypocrites.

However, I want to point out that hypocrisy and imperfection are completely different. Imperfection is innocent but hypocrisy is not. We should know the difference if we are Jesus' servants.

So which church should we go to? Which ones are "okay" and not "Babylon?"


International Standard Version (©2008)
Now you are the Messiah's body and individual parts of it.


You dont have to have church building or join the organization to have church. Jesus also says that where there are two or three gather in His name, there He will be.

And you may say that these are the big things (military and abortion) but that is not what Jesus says.


Yes, they are big things, Jesus takes life very seriously. He never condones anyone taking lives.

Quote:
Jesus was with quite a few sinners in His time, and ate with Judas moments before he was betrayed. Jesus disagrees with you, imho.


When Jesus ate with them He was evangelizing and administering to them. He was always moving around many places, not the same place like nowadays organizational churches. He was not worshiping with them.

Babylon is also symbol of pagan religion.
