So exactly what scriptural evidence is there that could possibly link the Whore of Babylon to the Roman Catholic Church? And why are Orthodox churches, which share many doctrines and much of Christian history, seemingly omitted?

I am aware that Christ said he existed before Abraham. So he was there with God all along.
I KNOW that you 'know' quite of lot Robbie... 😀
I had quite a bit of your knowledge during the celebrating Christmas issue.
And youre correct. I know nothing really. I simply repeat what Christ said. I never add or subtract. Cant say the same for you, Gal ...[text shortened]... claiming the Christ is archangel Michael is the most hilarous piece of storytelling possible.

actually my friend, you surely know that ol Robbie is naught but a ragged clown! As for adding and subtracting, you must remember my friend that we are simply students of the Bible, and all that we teach has a Biblical reference, you may not agree with the interpretation of the reference, that is fine, but its not fiction as you have erroneously assumed, there is always a reference.

You dont even know youre doing it .. 🙂 hilarious !!
Originally posted by Rajk999Again I ask..Do you just complain? You say you know so much about the Bible. Why don't you find some good to do with the knowledge you do have then just complain about things you really don't know much about? Seems like such a waste to me.

Where did I say that I ".. know so much about the Bible." ?

Unfortunately, I am tired for today. And I would like to take a rest. Conrau, when I return I will attempt to draw from Scripture to justifiy the interpretation I proposed.
But we have to be aware that there is a difference between the "system" and saints of God caught up in the system.
Think of the old testament. Daniel was "caught" in Babylon. Yet few people in the Old Testament match Daniel in Godliness and wisdom and even revelation from God.
In a state of "capture" away from the good land, God in His mercy provided such a spiritual person as Daniel in Babylon.
The brief comment to draw a distinction between the gifted saints of God and the system of confusion in which they may find themselves caught away to.
I do not intend to offend anyone. And in the Roman Catholic System there are unquestionably saints of God who love Jesus more than I do.
Please take note, the Harlot is a system. The daughters of the Harlot are also systems. The saints caught up in the systems are beloved of God and are His children, if they are born of God.

Right? But so far to be honest, I haven't seen that.

I'm not saying your completey wrong on some points, but it would be a better argument if you would always back it up with the Bible, not just an opinion. Many do that here and it just isn't convencing when it's just an opinion. Notice how many use the words; I think, my idea, my thought, my belief, I feel or whatever. There is only truth in the Bible. Not a bunch of ideas or whatever you want to make of it.
