Revelation 13: Is Europe the woman named "Babylon" in the Book of Revelation?
-- A Bible Prophecy, Book of Revelation, New Age analysis of the Future of Europe
An issue for Europe is that it is geographically close to Russia, and Russia is a military superpower that is going through a return to a totalitarian type of government, and also Europe is having problems with Muslim terrorism. And Russia is showing signs of using natural gas supplies from Russia as a way to manipulate Europe and former Soviet countries such as Ukraine through price hikes and control of supply.
This web site includes a section suggesting that
Russia
and the Commonwealth of Independent States could be the red ten horned beast in the Book of Revelation in the Bible, and Europe could be the woman named "Babylon" who rides him in Revelation 17, since Europa in mythology was a woman riding a bull.
(Or the red beast could be the SCO consisting of Russia, China, and four Central Asia countries, if other countries such as Iran join the SCO).
Note that
geographically Western Europe being next to Russia, would agree with this idea of Europa riding the beast Russia. Revelation, the last chapter of the Christian Bible, consists of prophecies of disastrous future events, that many people believe are occurring now with the new millennium beginning.
It is my suggestion that the Antichrist (a Satanic imitation of Christ), a great dictator, is Russian President Putin, and that Russia is the red 7-head 10-horned beast of the Bible's Book of
Revelation (the 10 horns being the Confederation of Independent States, led by Russia, although there are more than 10 in it now). This is an angry, dangerous beast in the Book of Revelation. I know that many of you reading this will say that
Osama bin Laden is more likely to be the Antichrist, but Osama bin Laden is too evil; the Antichrist will appear to be a good man, in fact the Antichrist will appear to be the saviour of the world.
Osama bin Laden is another character in
Revelation, a demon from Hell called "The Destroyer" in Revelation 9:11.
Russian President
Putin has brought stability and returned economic prosperity to Russia, and therefore President Putin has been praised around the world. But later by
2010 I think that Russia will become angry towards the West. I think Armageddon comes in 2010.
Another image in the Book of Revelation chapter 17 is the woman who rides the red 10-horned Beast, that I believe is Russia and/or Muslim nations. The woman and the Beast are friends, but eventually the Beast turns on her, and she is burnt with fire. I think this woman is Europe, since the symbol of Europe is the mythological Europa riding a bull.
So here you have a European Babylon riding on the back of the Russian red beast.
Also,
Russia and Europe have cooperated in economic and political matters in recent years, but I think the relationship could turn unfriendly eventually. Eventually this could mean that Russia will turn against Europe.
Eventually Russia or the Muslim terrorists and Iran will turn against Europe. In Revelation 17, the 10 horns of the beast are 10 kings who are in league with him, I think this is the C.I.S., and the seven heads of the Beast would be the heads of the seven districts that President Putin has divided Russia into.
Revelation 17 (King James Version):
17:3 "...and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."
17:12 "And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast."
17:16 "And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the (woman), and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire."
Note also that the woman is described in Revelation 17:6 as "drunk with the blood of saints", I believe this is referring to Europe's long history of wars, having seen more wars in the last two thousand years than anywhere else on earth, the worst wars being World War 1 and 2. The woman is described as a great city in Revelation 17:18, and in 17:15 it says that the woman consists of many peoples, nations, and languages. This also agrees with the woman being Europe. The "burn her with fire" may actually be a plague such as
SARS
Bird Flu or
Ebola spreading to Europe, note that SARS came out of the mouth of the
China dragon, part of the Russia/China red beast.
