Politics & Prostitutes (Revelation 17)
In Revelation 17, we encounter one of the Bible’s most vivid and unsettling images — the great prostitute, Babylon the Great, riding the beast and seducing the nations. But beneath the imagery lies a timeless truth: the world’s systems of pleasure, prosperity, and power still war against the Lamb today.
In this message, Politics and Prostitutes: A Tale of Two Cities, Pastor Timothy unpacks the meaning of Babylon as more than an ancient empire — it’s the spirit of the age, the City of Man, contrasted with the City of God. Through Scripture, history, and modern parallels, we’re called to live as faithful exiles: in the world, for the city, but never of the world.
📖 Key Themes:
- The Great Prostitute & the Spirit of Babylon
- Pleasure, Prosperity, and Power: The World’s Three Lures
- Covenant Unfaithfulness vs. Holy Fidelity
- Daniel’s Model of Faithful Presence in Babylon
- The City of Man vs. The City of God
🙌 Discover how to seek the welfare of your city without losing your soul — learning to love Babylon redemptively while keeping your allegiance to the Lamb.
