What the Kingdom of God Is Not- Idolatry... Overcoming the Spirit of False Worship (Daniel 3 & 6). Worksheet/ Rashea@LLO2 Academy
Babylon is:
a. God oriented.
b. Anti-Christ.
c. Neutral ground.
Babylon is the birthplace and origin of Babel. Nimrod was the founder of Babel. Nimrod was the first cannibal mentioned in the Bible. Spiritually speaking Nimrod was a hunter and annihilator of human life.👀
Babel relates to the tower, the people and the city of confusion. Their objective was not to unite with God but against God, as one people, under one mission and ruler. Babylon conceives the practice of idolatry or false worship. Babylon is derived from the Akkadian word babilu which means the gate of god. Babylon is the counterfeit of God's eternal city in heaven. Babylon is anti-Christ. Babylon is the antagonist of God's people not their mediator. God did not punish Babylon for the prophetic word concerning Israel. God punished the kingdom of Babylon for its own sins that accumulated over time. Furthermore, Babylon signifies pride, sin, rebellion, idolatry, choas, confusion and cruelty. Babylon deems itself equal to God and will exalt itself to prove its importance. (References: Wiley Online Library... The Encyclopedia of Christian Civilization/ Babylon as Metaphor by: Ron J. Bigalke Jr. & BibleStudyTools.com)
In 2Corinthians 11:13-15 the Apostle Paul expounds on and exposes false leaders in the gospel. The deception of leaders in leadership has been going on for centuries. When it is out of your hands, put the misuse of leadership and those in power in God's hands.
The Apostle Paul did not stop preaching or teaching the gospel. Nor did he stop worshipping God from a pure heart just because leaders opposed his assignment or message to the body of Christ. The Apostle Paul remained steadfast in his calling and continued the work of God, until it was completed. Speak up, stand up and keep moving forward.

How to detect a false gospel:
A false gospel's agenda is built on lies and deception. You will hear the Word of God mingled with misconceptions of biblical Scriptures and facts. There will be confessions of true events in one's own life that will at the same time be pointed at other people and happenings to camouflage their own truth. If you are not in tuned with the Holy Spirit, it will sound like God, and you will be deceived.
Also, when people who know the truth for themselves yet lie about happenings to cover for others folly, stay clear of them. Know the truth for yourself, or you both will be guilty of deception and falsehood before God and man. God's only agenda is to see lives transformed through salvation and regeneration. Deception is never God's agenda. When coming in contact with such people and happenings, protect yourself with prayer and God's Word. Pray for those practicing and participating in such acts of sin and deception.
When you come in contact with what the Bible calls lying wonders, go home and search the Scriptures for yourself. Ask God for understanding about anything said or done that did not sit right with you. You cannot always control what others say or do in your presence, but you can protect yourself from their deception, through prayer and studying God's Word for yourself. A person who teaches or preaches the Word of God but lives contrary to what they preach or teach are lying wonders and false leaders.👀

Jesus, I renounce the spirit of Babylon. I renounce the spirit of idolatry and false worship. Help us to worship God and to serve Him with a pure and obedient heart. I renounce the spirit of Nimrod and Babel from operating in our lives. I bind the annihilation of true Christianity and Christian's. Lord, open up our eyes in the spirit to detect false leaders, ministry assignments and messages that will detour our hearts and minds from You and our allegiance to God. Help us to watch and pray. Help us to study and know the Word of God for ourselves. Let us not shy away from our faith or the proper use of God's Word. Let us not have a heart or mind to deceive others or to be deceived by others. Help us to walk and live in integrity according to the Word of God and right principles. I renounce the promoting and teaching of a false gospel. Lord, send forth revival, salvation and regeneration through the purity of true worship and the integrity of the Word of God. Help us to be hearers and doers of the Word of God. I pray for all those who have been deceived by false teachings and exhortations of the Bible and the gospel of Jesus Christ. I bind the powers and spirits of lying wonders. Help us to uphold the moral standard of God in all we say, do, think and commit to, in Jesus name. Amen.
No matter who is in power or in leadership, as a leader called by God... I have an obligation to protect myself and my followers from misguidance. We will know a tree by its fruit at the root. The truth only sets us free not idolatry and deception. Satan cannot have this ministry or platform. I have to give an account to God for what is produced here not you.👌🏾💯
