This "Babylon the Great" is not a political or commercial organization

  1

Revelation 17:1, 2
And one of the seven angels that had the seven saucers came and talked with me, saying “Come here,
I will show you the sentence of the great prostitute seated on a great water,
2 with whom the kings of the earth debauched themselves and the inhabitants of the earth
were intoxicated with the wine of her unchaste embraces”;

  2

Revelation 18:9
And the kings of the earth, who have debauched themselves with her and lived luxuriously in her company,
shall weep and wail over her when they see the smoke of the burning of her,

  3

Revelation 18:11, 15
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her because nobody buys their cargoes any longer,
15 The merchants of these things, those who had grown rich from her,
shall stand far away for the fear of her torture weeping and mourning,

False Religion is Identified by:

her immoral relationship with the world leaders
shows that she cannot be a political organization and
since the "the merchants of the earth." mourn,
she also cannot be a commercial power.
