Intro

Varde - a beacon of warning, guidance and necessary for keeping the remote communities safe. A CAIRN
God sends us a message of warning in the second angel’s message.

Babylon - Who is she

Revelation 14:8 NKJV
And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”
Contrast to:
Revelation 12:1 NKJV
Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.
- Underground in London - running onto the wrong train is easy. Eastbound vs westbound. Same train - at least in looks. Yet very different ending.
Revelation 13:5–7 “And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.”
Revelation 17:5 NKJV
And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH
Mother of Harlots - many compromised churches
Great Controversy Chapter 21—A Warning Rejected

The message of Revelation 14, announcing the fall of Babylon must apply to religious bodies that were once pure and have become corrupt. Since this message follows the warning of the judgment, it must be given in the last days; therefore it cannot refer to the Roman Church alone

But we have to dare to speak the Truth!
We have to DARE to fight for what is right - Veteran’s Day - honoring those who fought for true values - FREEDOM and LIFE
What happens when you depart from TRUTH?

Fallen

Babylon is - - - FALLEN!
There is no hope in this entity! The train goes away from the kingdom of Heaven. God is VERY clear on this. People need to be told - what way you think is good, might not be good for you.
Proverbs 14:12 NKJV
There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
Acts 4:12 NKJV
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
This world must come to an end, but there is a way of hope in this warning message - It is a message to be COURAGEOUS.

Come Out

Revelation 18:4 NKJV
And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.
VERBALLY CONNECTED TO THE 2ND ANGEL’S MESSAGE - tightly!
Psalm 73:27–28 NKJV
For indeed, those who are far from You shall perish; You have destroyed all those who desert You for harlotry. But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord God, That I may declare all Your works.
London Underground - WAY OUT
John 14:6 NKJV
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Matthew 10:32 NKJV
“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.
Ephesians 6:10 NKJV
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
Veteran’s Day is meant to inspire us to have courage - in face of certain death - as those who went before us - we are to stand up and fight for Truth - Fight for Jesus - Fight for love, compassion, peace, healing, in a world that rejects these truths.
Jesus is coming again soon. Are you willing to stand up and be a “VARDE” a “CAIRN”. share a message of courage?
