THE WOMAN HAVING A GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND

 THE WOMAN HAVING A GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND.... 

Rev 17:4... And THE WOMAN was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication” 

As we think of the GOLDEN CUP IN THE HARLOT'S HAND there is a divine quickening that reminds us of the wonderful "CUP OF THE LORD".  His cup is FULL of New Covenant wine, fresh new revelation and reality, the divine and spiritual inheritance of HIS CHOSEN ELECT which are the firstfruit overcomers of this appointed time.  It speaks of the remission of sins, and the revelation knowledge of God revealed by the Spirit of love through the sacrifice--death--burial, resurrection, ascension, and glorification of the firstborn Son of God.  It is filled with heavenly, spiritual blessings, poured out upon all who are RAISED UP to sit in vital union with Christ 

in the spiritual realms of the heavenly sphere.  Thus spiritually drinking of "THE CUP OF THE LORD" which is the TRUTH of the REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST!  The fresh wine of the CUP OF THE LORD is cleansing to the heart, peace and purity to the conscience, joy to the soul, righteousness to the life, transformation to the mind, redemption to the body, and glory and power beyond comprehension to all who overcome to share HIS KINGDOM THRONE.  

In contrast the GOLDEN CUP IN THE HARLOT'S HAND is “full of abominations” and "filthiness of her fornication".  Spiritual fornication is the common scripture word for what is idolatrous--revealing it is “the cup of demons” HERE IT IS...  1Co 10:14... Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.  1Co 10:15...I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. 1Co 10:16... The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood-LIFE- of Christ? The bread-SPIRITUAL TRUTH WORD- which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 1Co 10:17... For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread--JESUS THE LIVING WORD.  1Co 10:18...Behold Israel after the flesh-IMMATURE CARNAL MINDED CHRISTIANS: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?  1Co 10:19... What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?  1Co 10:20... But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.  1Co 10:21... Ye cannot drink the CUP OF THE LORD, and the CUP OF DEVILS: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. 

The spiritual drink that she offers is full of abominations in the eyes of the Lord. And it also contains “the unclean things of her fornication.”  Therefore THE HARLOT SOUL is being unfaithful to her husband thus corrupting herself, prostituting the holy things of God, she--THE RELIGIOUS MIND AND CARNAL LITERAL THINKING can only bring men under the influence of unholy intimacy with the religious spirit of the world, the flesh realm, and the devil.  Instead of offering the world the cup of salvation, the cup of the spiritual revelation of the life of the Lord Jesus himself in the heavens of the Spirit of the Lord. The GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND offers carnal satisfaction in the name of religion. Her cup is full of make believe doctrines, fairy tale stories of the natural rapture thus the taking away of the saints of God into some natural place called heaven somewhere off into some distant land.  

No.... HERE IT IS.... HEAR IT... BELIEVE IT....   Pro 10:30.... The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.  THE ONLY THING LEAVING THIS EARTH IS WICKNESS IN ALL OF ITS FORMS..... FOR THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S AND THE FULLNESS THEREOF..... GLORY TO GOD ALMIGHTY....  In her hand is the drink of teaching false concepts that our God is full of evil vengeance and anger really to subject his sons and daughters to an eternity of demonic damnation full of pain and ruin.   NO.... WHAT SHALL SEPARATE GOD'S CREATION FROM HIS LOVING CARE...... NOTHING...... 

HERE IT IS ..... HEAR IT.... BELIEVE IT.... Rom 8:38.... For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities---NO DEVIL WILL EVER SEPARATE US FROM OUR LOVING CREATOR, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,    Rom 8:39....  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate US from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.   HERE IT IS... HEAR IT.... BELIEVE IT... The harlot woman soul having the GOLDEN CUP in her hand has made the entire world drink with her spiritual lies and deception.  Rev 17:1... And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the GREAT WHORE that sitteth upon many waters:  Rev 17:2... With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been MADE DRUNK with the wine of her fornication.....  A golden cup entices to drink; for one expects the most precious drink from such a vessel.  This is a SPIRITUAL figurative expression that means the apostate-false-religious church systems use every device possible to entice all men to drink and partake of her false doctrines and practice her flesh-oriented programs and promotions.  The cup contains corrupt and false teachings, fleshly and perverted practices, dead religious works and natural rituals, this is all fittingly represented by harlotry--BY THE WOMAN HAVING THE GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND.

Blessings All....
