Come out of Babylon, My People! - The Revelation of Jesus Christ

“我又听见从天上来的另一个声音，说，我的百姓，从她身上出来，不要与她的罪有分，也不要受她的灾殃。” ~ 启示录 18:4

This voice from heaven is the Word of God as it has been recorded in the scriptures:

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.” ~ 2 Corinthians 6:14-18

It is not OK with God for anyone to stay part of a fellowship where they know the majority of the people are not saved nor sincere! God is sounding the warning extremely loudly in Revelation that he will not tolerate his people fellowshipping with hypocrisy.

Jesus prayer before his death on the cross was that his people would be true, and that they would be one in holiness, with the heavenly Father and his Son.

“我不仅为这些人祈祷，也为那些因他们的话相信我的人祈祷；使他们都合而为一；就像你，父亲，在我里面，我在你里面，以便他们也可以在我们里面成为一：世界可以相信你已经派遣了我。你赐予我的荣耀，我已赐予他们；使他们合而为一，正如我们合而为一。好让世人知道你派我来，并且爱他们，就像你爱我一样。” ~ 约翰福音 17:20-23

So the intention of God is extremely clear, keep his church clean of hypocrisy! Hypocrisy and making room for sin is never OK, nor ever was a part of God’s plan for his church. Sinners are always welcome to come to hear the Word of God and to learn and understand the ways of Jesus Christ. With this purpose, it is the hope that someday they will repent of their sins and turn fully to serving God. This is the plan and love of God.

But don’t invite the hypocrisy game into your fellowship services. And never let a false preacher turn your congregation into a cage of spiritually hateful birds! The kind of people who can adhere to the form of worship, but yet have all kinds of sin brewing within their hearts.

So the warning is real clear, if you don’t get out of a place filled with religious hypocrites, you will join in with the hypocrisy, and receive God’s judgement wrath!

“…Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” ~ Revelation 18:4”

Do you have any spiritual discernment left? Quit playing the social religion game! Flee from those who are that way and implore God that he would lead you to true people that live obedient to the Word of God. May God help everyone of us to be honest with where we are spiritually!
