REVELATION 18:1-3

After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was made bright with his glory. 2 And he called out with a mighty voice,
“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great!
She has become a dwelling place for demons,
a haunt for every unclean spirit,
a haunt for every unclean bird,
a haunt for every unclean and detestable beast.
3 For all nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality,
and the kings of the earth have committed immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power of her luxurious living.”

In Revelation 18, John sees the fall of the system that is opposed to God:

• 18:1-3, An angel pronounces judgment on Babylon;
• 18:4-20, A voice from heaven predicts the fall of Babylon;
• 18:21-24, An angel pronounces judgment on Babylon a second time;
• 19:1-8, Voices in heaven praise God for the fall of Babylon.

In the plot of Revelation, we are now within the final judgments, when all evil is being brought to account. At this point in the vision, it’s too late to repent and turn.

The good news is that it’s not too late for us and our world—the final judgment that John sees has not yet happened here.
