“With a mighty voice he shouted: “’Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’ She has become a dwelling for demons and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal”. Revelation 18:2
How many of you remember the above image from August 2015? I do and I even blogged on it in a post titled New York, New York, What Have You Done? In it, I discuss how New York City has been courting demons since 2010 if you have not read it or would like to reread it you can find it by clicking here.
The image above is of the Hindu goddess Kali which lit up the face of the Empire State Building for several days as part of an artistic endeavor described by some as breathtaking and the image of power and strength. *This was all part of an exhibition to raise awareness to the plight of endangered species or so they say.
I’m not sure what the goddess Kali has to do with endangered animals and wasn’t altogether sure who or where the goddess Kali fit in the Hindu religion so I did a little research and found this –
**“Kali is the Hindu goddess (or Devi) of death, time, and doomsday and is often associated with sexuality and violence but is also considered a strong mother-figure and symbolic of motherly love.
I’m not sure that’s the kind of mother most of us would wish for but in spite of what we might consider an odd mix of characteristics she for some reason or other is the object of fervent worship in India.
The importance of which (in my opinion) cannot be stressed enough in regard to the times we are living in.
Consider this:
Global peace and understanding, really? Isn’t she also the goddess of death, doomsday and violence? Oh, I see. Looks like we’re right on track with that.
I’m not sure why the Empire State Building was selected. But I know as an icon of American culture and a well known symbol of the city itself it would be a desirable choice as it symbolizes the rise of America as global financial power in the 20th century.
And it’s not just the United States whom Kali has found favor with but Great Britain as well. In 2022 the goddess Kali was part of an exhibit in the British museum regarding feminine power – as noted below.
Some may think the image at Cern is Kali but it’s not, it’s Shiva, the god of destruction. In the Hindu religion Shiva is the husband and Kali is the wife. So Kali standing over Shiva in this image is said to symbolize “total mastery over the process of life. It means that you can kill God himself and then give life back to him”.
Now I’m no expert on how demons are summoned nor do I want to be. But it’s very odd to me how 9 years following the display of the goddess Kali on the Empire State Building we now have Hinduism showing itself in both political parties.
Kamala Devi Harris (Democrat and current Vice-President running for President). She claims she is a Baptist but derives her dedication to social justice from her Hindu roots so she states. I wonder which of her policies reflect her Baptist affiliation, if any? Her name Kamala Devi is a Hindu name which means: Lotus (Kamala) and goddess (Devi).
But let’s not stop there. The closing prayer for the opening day of the Republican National Convention was given in the name of the Sikh god Waheguru. Sikh is an Indian religion influenced by Hinduism and Islam.
And it is worth noting as well that the Republican Vice President nominee J.D Vance is married to a woman (Usha Vance) who is a practicing Hindu.
Is this coincidence? I don’t know but if it is it’s a very strange one.

*In 2015, the Hindu goddess Kali was projected onto the Empire State Building as the final image in the light artwork exhibition Projecting Change. The exhibition was created by filmmaker Louie Psihoyos and his team in collaboration with Obscura Digital to raise awareness about the need to protect endangered animals and wildlife extinction. The exhibition also featured virtual images of 160 animal species and other endangered animals, including Cecil the lion, projected on to the New York City Skyline”.

Hello, and thank you Cindy for posting this.
I do remember this very well and am personally persuaded that NYC is the “City of Nations” mention in Revelation 16:19, “And the great city was divided into three parts, and the
citiesCity of the Nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His [God’s] wrath.”I am persuaded that the translators gave foolish way to their common sense instead of trusting the unction of the Holy Spirit who so inspired the Apostle John to write is as such, For they instead, not understanding how a singular city could be indeed a city of nations, translated it “cities of nations” instead.
Yet, NYC is the primary headquarters for the United Nations and thus holds, as it were, sovereign soil for all its member, making it indeed a “City of the Nations.”
I too wrote about this in both July and August of 2015, the year I released my 1st edition of The Eighth Beast. So, I hope you don’t mind my sharing one of those post here again with yours.

However, I am persuaded that before death and destruction comes “in one hour” on “one day” not too distant from today, that we will again see Americans, and many being very patriotic professing Christians, celebrating peace, safety, and prosperity again… for a very brief season.
For why and how else would “the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her,
shallbewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning?” All of them “standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city!for[in which] in one hour is her judgment come?”What could be this torment???
And why would “the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her” except for the fact that there is “no man [left to] buy their merchandise anymore?” And they therefore they too “cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What city is like unto this great city!’ And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.’”
Torment and casting dust on their heads while out in the open water on their ships? Where does this dust come from? What is this torment?
Never forget, the ending of WW2 brought about the fall of the British Empire, the re-birth of Israel, and catapulted America into a place of global supremacy… all following the use of atomic weapons unnecessarily upon Hiroshima and Nagasaki when President Truman order fire to fall from heaven upon them. Leaving to whole world to say, who among us can make war with this?
But never forget, “He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity: he that kills with the sword [bomb] must be killed with the sword [bomb]. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.]
Brethren, I am persuaded that we who are alive today, may well need this patience and faith to even endure a bit longer. Perhaps, even to pray, plan and seek God how to literally to “Come out of her My people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.”
Perhaps, it is time for Christians in America to quit spiritualizing everything and come up with a sound scriptural reason why this clear call to “Come out of her, My people,” should not be taken just as literal as it was given in these following passages. For is this not the exact same word which was given by God admonishing the Israelites to flee Babylon because of the wrath that was about to be poured out upon her?
Jeremiah 51:6 – Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD’s vengeance; for He will render unto her a recompense.
Jeremiah 51:45 – My people, go you out of the midst of her, and deliver you every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD.
Many believers are complacent because they have been taught that this is the rapture call of Christ’s coming to steal away His bride. However, I am persuaded it is meant to be taken just as it was by the saints in Jeremiah’s and Noah’s time, as a stern call to obedience by God for the righteous to prove their hearts and thus condemn the wicked for their disobedience.
Hebrew 11:7 – By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear and prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Similarly, the obedience of the godly to this admonishment to “come out from among them” may well prove to be the final witness of the Spirit against the wicked in America, that they have gone too far. And now, having been weighed in the balances, they are being found lacking as this judgment now hangs above them like a sword.
I strongly urge you to prayerfully consider this “Come out of her My people” in the light of Jesus’ words He told the seventy after He sent them out, and gave them authority and power to be effectual witnesses that the Kingdom of God had in truth come unto men.
Luke 9:5 – And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
Luke 10:10 – But into whatsoever city you enter, and they receive you not, then go out your way into the streets of the same, and say, 11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaves on us, we wipe off against you: notwithstanding be you sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
Now compare the verses above with Paul’s actions towards the rebellious Jews in Macedonia.
Acts 18:5 – And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ. 6 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads, I am clean and from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
This call to “come out” may very well be the greatest witness the Church of Jesus Christ in America will give both to Americans and the unbelievers of the countries into which they go. Consequently, I believe the children of faith, that true body of Christ in America, will be required to exercise the same faith of Abraham once again, and leave their natural country trusting their God who has prepared for them an eternal City, that He will likewise provide for them wherever He leads them.
However, please understand there cannot be a survivalist motive or mentality in this coming out. No seeking to save our own lives, no trusting in the wisdom of man, or the strength of the flesh or confidence in silver and gold. Just simple obedience for the glory of His Name alone, for that is the nature of true faith. This call must be a testimony of God’s righteousness and a witness against the wicked, similar to Noah’s faith in his days, of whom scriptures says he condemned the world to its destruction by his own obedience, or that of just Lot who left all his possessions obediently fleeing Sodom and Gomorrah’s destruction.
Stay blessable, on fire, and yet UNBURNABLE.
William
