My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 18:21

My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 18:21

Before Jesus was crucified He told the disciples to watch and pray, something so simple, but they let their physical bodies take over and they fell back asleep. In these last hours of time you need to hear His voice. When He tells you something, it is very important, but most ignore my voice or just discuss it and go on with what they were doing. You will see many things start to happen shortly and if you do not hear and obey His voice,... it will mean death for some of you....Jesus has only your best interest in mind. Christ knows you heart, and if you are truly His you will hear His voice. He awakes many of you at 3am on the dot, but most will roll over and go back to sleep. There are a few who will get up and pray. Your day is filled with so many things and Jesus is the last thing many of you give your time to. But Christ needs to talk to you,... to fellowship with you and only when you are still and quite (3am) can you hear Him,... the rest of your day is so busy you do not have time for Him,... but you need to make time, for time is short and the Lord has instructions for you.

Revelation 18

The Cause and Utter Doom of Literal Babylon

“And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. Rev. 18:21

a great millstone... Millstones were large, heavy stones used to grind grain. This metaphor portrays the violence of Babylon’s overthrow (compare Jer. 51:61-64; see Matt. 18:6).

violence shall that... Here we have the violence and suddenness of destruction of literal Babylon pictured. She is to be cast down and not found any more. This has never been fulfilled for ruins of Babylon still remain and can be found any day. In fact, many remains of Babylon have been used to build Hillah. This is contrary to Jer. 51:26 if there is to be no future destruction of a literal city. After the final destruction not one stone of Babylon will be used to rebuild any city or house. Babylon has been restored several times since Nimrod and each time on a different site but in the same vicinity, so it could be true of the future city.

into the sea... Sometimes means masses of people, but I do not believe that is the meaning here. Whether this is only a real city, (rebuilt Babylon), or a sinful commercial, social and political system that corrupts the entire world which is being destroyed here, this is speaking of total destruction. More than likely this is speaking of both as the two can be easily associated. This millstone here is similar to the one spoken of as being around a neck and thrown into the sea.
In the light of this Scripture, this is a really bad punishment. I believe this illustration is to show the finality of this judgment of God. We must remember Babylon is destroyed by God Himself, not by the devil.

The final and violent destruction of the city is compared to throwing a large millstone… into the sea (Rev. 18:21).
