"Babylon the Great" is the source of teachings that dishonor God

  1

Revelation 17:4
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet,
and decked with gold and precious stone and pearls,
having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations,
even the unclean things of her fornication,

  2

Revelation 17:5
and upon her forehead a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS AND OF
THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

  3

Revelation 17:15
And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest,
where the harlot sitteth,are peoples, and
multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

False Religion is Identified by:

Its showy display of wealth, its "purple and gold".
Its teachings and actions that dishonor God.
The billions of members of false religion are the
"Peoples and crowds and nations and tongues"
who continue to support "Babylon the Great".
