Babylon Is Fallen.

By R. F. Cottrell

THE fall of Babylon is a moral fall, and not her overthrow. This is evident from the fact that after her fall she becomes the habitation of demons and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. Rev. 18. Rome is admitted to be the mother of harlots. But the announcement of Babylon's fall is made after that of the hour of God's judgment come. It would be stale news to proclaim the moral fall of the Roman church after her bloody reign of 1260 years is all past. Hence the announcement of Babylon's fall must have reference to the daughters.
