Mystery Babylon - Joel Richardson

Mystery Babylon is an in-depth look at the prophecy of Revelation chapters 17 and 18. Richardson dissects the longest prophecy in the New Testament and makes sense of these deeply elusive and profoundly controversial passages.

At the same time a queen, a prostitute, and a cold-blooded killer, this great harlot waves a golden cup filled with blood. Adorned in purple, scarlet, gold, and precious stones, she seduces the kings of the earth with luxury.

Most commonly known, perhaps, is that she rides a beast with 7 heads and 10 horns. Her title is Mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of all harlots and of the abominations of the earth.

From the early days of Christianity, believers have struggled to understand the mystery of the great harlot. Scholars and students alike have arrived at many different conclusions.

In his characteristically easy-to-understand style, Joel works through the history of Christian interpretation of Mystery Babylon, weighing the strengths and weaknesses of each view, making a powerful case for a solution to this prophecy that will rock the prophecy world.
