A global dimension
Revelation, Chapter 18, The Fall of Babylon is in
three sections. I have not elaborated on the second
and third sections because these I believe will come
about in the time to come. If the power of the Trinity
is indicated from the West by the Rider on the white
horse (Rev 19:11) as I explained in my previous post,
we have already moved into the time of the revelation
of the “four corners of the earth” (Rev 7:1).
The New Jerusalem indicates the final global dimension
As you know, as I have shown in my books and on this
website, the measure of the “temple” (Rev 11:1) on
earth is transformed into the measure of the New
Jerusalem in Revelation, Chapter 21. We know this
because the angel in Rev 21:17 measures the wall of
the New Jerusalem “according to the measure of a man”.
Rev 21:12-14
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve
gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names
written thereon, which are the names of the twelve
tribes of the children of Israel:
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates;
on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations,
and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the
Lamb.
Four corners of the earth
The indication that the way of the kings of the East
has been prepared (Rev 16:12) and, I believe, the time
of rider on the white horse (from the West), Rev
19:11, is already revealed, Revelation should now be
considered globally.
Since the time of the rider on the black horse 1896,
the rule of man globally opened a way for the spread
of the message of the Cross to the ends of the earth.
Plague
The plague of 2020 was also global, and the time of
the plague corresponded to the measure of “one hour”
(Rev 18:10) and “one day” (Rev18:8) as I have shown on
this Forum.
Not of man’s making
Because it seems that Revelation has moved into a
global dimension, the second and third sections of
Chapter 18, the Fall of Babylon, where the “one hour”
is repeated, now relates to the entire earth and I
believe what is revealed in these sections, is going
to come about by the Hand of God and not of man’s
making. The plague is a wake-up call. The second and
third sections of Chapter 18, where the words “one
hour” are repeated (Rev 18:17 and 19) may relate to
Armageddon (Rev 16:16) and the great earthquake (Rev
11:13).
