The Spirit Behind ‘Occupy’
“MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH”
Pictures and slogans are powerful tools used to broadcast messages to the masses. However, this symbolism also exposes the “driving force” behind any movement or organization. Now with this understanding, do you suppose it is a coincidence the “Occupy” movement chose this particular image depicting a woman riding a beast; just like how the Bible describes “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT”?
Revelation 17:3-6
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
Although the devil does all his dirty work in secret, because he is filled with pride he cannot resist bragging about what he is up to. And one of the ways he does this is through slogans and symbolism. However God, through His Word the Bible, always exposes Satan’s plans and gives us understanding regarding these things. I encourage you to read Job 41 to learn more about the pride of our enemy leviathan and how he operates.
2 Corinthians 2:11
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
As Christians, we need to be watchful and in prayer regarding the “Occupy” movement because the spirit that is behind it is “drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.” And we are even now beginning to see signs of this hatred rearing its ugly head through this “revolution“.
If you recall from the post “Types and Shadows“, ungodly women in the Bible give us understanding of how “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH” operates. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the following passage well describes how this “harlot” is presently at work “seducing” people “void of understanding” into joining her “Occupy” movement.
Proverbs 7:4-15
4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
11(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. (Underline mine)

Constance Cumbey has been warning the church by exposing the New Age Movement since the early 1980′s and she sees many parallels between it and the Occupy Movement. A visit to her blog will provide more understanding on this correlation.
Without a doubt, these are interesting times we are living in and it is truly astounding to see Bible prophecy unfolding before our very eyes on a daily basis. Nevertheless, I am thankful we can depend on God’s Word as our source of truth for understanding not only this “Occupy” movement, but everything else that is going on in these last days.
Until That Day…
Mark 4:22-23
22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.
23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
