Revelation (Part 12) Babylon, the Matrix, and the Kingdom Benediction Church, #HamOnt
-
- Christianity
Scripture: Revelation 15:5-19:10
Date: April 21, 2024
Teacher: Michael Mileski
The narrative of Revelation has a lot in common with the classic sci-fi film The Matrix: a futuristic world in which a majority of the population are blind, asleep, and feeding their power to a corrupt system. Like the world we live in, which John has symbolized by Babylon, a lot of people don’t seem to know (or care) that they’re being lied to, exploited, and manipulated. That’s what Babylon is all about.
The question is: “If you were more at home in Babylon than in the Kingdom of God, would you know it? And if you realized you were feeding Babylon, would you want to wake up from that, or continue in the fiction?"
Babylon is the unholy city, the prostitute, the antithesis of the Kingdom of God, and yet so many of us have no idea that we are part of it. In this message we consider seven key features / characteristics so that we can know whether we’re more at home here in Babylon, or in the Kingdom, and by knowing it, do something about it.
