The Woman Rides The Beast

by Danny Yates  
4/20/2014 / Poetry

Revelation 17
We do need understanding, so the Book it says,
verse 9 of Revelation, begins this light to shed.
The introducing chapter in 17 we glean
Great Mystery O'Babylon
this woman rides supreme.

The Beast she rides described, verse 7 it does read,
"has seven heads and ten horns". Just what is this? Indeed!
Help comes in verses 8 thru10, eleven sums it up,
five heads denote past kingdoms then Rome is in John's day
and that which is to come, a short time it will stay.

The seventh one is leaving, the eighth doth now appear.
He is the Beast who was, is not, again yes he is here.
John says he's of the seven and so remain the heads.
Ten other kings will follow him until his throne is dead.
These kings unite as one and give him all their power.
This stand is simply not enough at ending of the hour.

The Lamb shows up in verse 14, and He will overcome.
This is the Stone, says Daniel 2 and in verse 34,
it strikes the image on his feet and he will be no more.
Becoming chaff blown with the wind we read in 35,
a mountain fills the earth is how the stone's described

The Mystery remains, the Woman, the Harlot,
City on seven hills,
sitting on many waters,
can't help but get a chill.

We know from these few scriptures
the world has drank her wine,
intoxicated as they are
the message not sublime.

True religion from above does not mix in its Love
with other sorts of pagan rites
nor marry other creed.
There is but One, to Him we're bound
in this we shall succeed.

There is a Church a coming,
Separate to be True
from the one evolving,
let this One be you.

Just in case this was not clear
the one that you should choose.

The bride who now prepares herself
Our Lord will not refuse.
