Mary: Virgin Daughter of Babylon

Grace and peace, Saints. 

Most of our readers know that we believe the Antichrist is pope Benedict XVI, Joseph Ratzinger, and that the Abomination of Desolation spoken of in the Book of Daniel, the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, and in the Book of the Revelation is the idle whom Roman Catholics worship as Mary. 

This goddess has gone by many names over the centuries, including Isis, Aphrodite, and Shing-Moo.  In the Bible she is known as Ashtoreth, Beltis, Diana of Ephesus, and “That Number” (Fate), among other names. 

We know that one of the attributes of this goddess is that she was often depicted as a virgin.  But I was not aware that she was also known as a virgin in the Bible: that is, until I came across the following passage:

“Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate. 

“Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The Lady of kingdoms” (Isaiah 47:1,5).

Notice that the subject of the passage is called a virgin and “The Lady of kingdoms.”  Is it merely a coincidence that the Roman Catholic Virgin Mary is also called “The Lady” or “Our Lady?”

If you have read our article, A Goddess By Any Other Name, then you know that the Roman Catholic Virgin Mary was also known as Artemis, Diana, and Diana of Ephesus.  Alexander Hislop also offers proof that the Virgin Mary and “The Lady” of Isaiah chapter 47 are one and the same.  In The Two Babylons we read:

“Now, Artemis was Diana, and the title of Despoina given to her shows that it was in the character of the Ephesian Diana she was identified with Semiramis; for Despoina is the Greek for Domina, “The Lady,” the peculiar title of Rhea or Cybele, the tower-bearing goddess in ancient Rome” (p. 30). [Boldface and italics mine.]

Now, a god or goddess is “identified with” or known as, another god or goddess when both share the same attribute(s).  Artemis is identified with Diana, because both are depicted as virgins, and Diana is identified with Semiramis, the deified Babylonian queen, because both were called “The Lady.”  

In light of this, one must conclude that the Roman Catholic Virgin Mary is not only Artemis and Diana, because all three share the attribute of “virginity,” but that the Virgin Mary is also Diana of Ephesus and Semiramis, because, like them, Mary is also known as “The Lady.” 

Moreover, in that the Bible refers to this idol as the “virgin daughter of Babylon,” one is again led to the inevitable conclusion that the Roman Catholic Virgin Mary is Semiramis, the defied Virgin Queen of Babylon.  Tradition holds that Semiramis claimed to be a virgin and that her son, Nimrod, whom she later married, was supernaturally conceived of the sun and not of a man.  (She had likely heard of the prophecy of Genesis 3:15 that the Savior would be born “of a woman.”) Both Nimrod and Semiramis were deified and worshipped as gods.

In the book of Daniel, King Nebuchadnezzar mandated that everyone in his kingdom worship the idol Beltis (Semiramis, Diana, Cybele, Rhea, etc.) (Daniel 3:1-6, 4:8), and in the book of the Revelation the false prophet will cause the Roman Catholic idol Mary, the Abomination of Desolation, to speak, and it will command that all the world worship it or perish (Revelation 13:15).  History will indeed repeat itself.

The Roman Catholic Charismatic and Ecumenical movements are designed to bring Christianity and all the world’s religions under the Roman Catholic pope.  This will be the one-world church.  For all intents and purposes, the visible Christian church has essentially already become a denomination of the Roman Catholic church:

Church of God Convocation in decidedly Roman Catholic garb 

Saints, the time is almost here.  The Antichrist, who already shows himself to be God, will soon seat himself in the temple of God and set up the Abomination of Desolation, The Virgin Mary.  The Bible says that all who worship this idol will take the mark of the Beast; and all who take this mark will burn in the Lake of Fire.

Wake up Church!
