Is Iraq Mystery Babylon?

During the Gulf War, prophecy “experts” were declaring Iraq was Mystery Babylon. But was it really? This article not only explains how the Tower of Babel provides the parabolic image the Prophets had in mind when they spoke of “Mystery Babylon” but also reveals who that “harlot” described in Revelation 17–19 actually is.

Jesus Talks About the Mystery

This is the first in a series of articles on the Mystery of Scripture. It provides evidence that Jesus Christ knew the Prophets had deliberately concealed the things they wrote concerning the birth, life, death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ—The Mystery of the Word of God—behind the parabolic imagery and Hebrew idioms they used.

The Parabolic Pantomimes of Jesus Christ

The parabolic pantomimes recorded in the Scriptures are all historical events orchestrated by God for the purpose of visually depicting some unknown fact parabolically. Ezekiel lying on his side for nearly a year and a half (Ezek. 4), Hosea’s marriage to an adulterous woman (Hos. 1:2), and Jonah being swallowed by a great fish are but a few examples. This article not only explains the parabolic imagery behind the parabolic pantomime in which Jesus Christ walked on the Sea of Galilee, it also explains the parabolic image of “the cup” that Jesus “drank” right before He died.
