The Old Testament Law system is this Babylon. It is very clearly taught in Scripture. Exodus is full of the description of the building of that old Tabernacle which Moses and those people built. It is exactly as described in Revelation.
Also Jesus very clearly told Jerusalem that she is left desolate and that she is guilty of all the righteous blood shed on earth, beginning with Abel.
So this Jerusalem/Babylon began back in the days of Adam. it is not any certain location on this earth. It is worldwide. In Rev 18, it says that Babylon is guilty of all the righteous blood shed on this earth. So they are one and the same.
All nations drunk of this wine of fornication against God. It is that law. Paul very clearly said, in Galatians that the Jerusalem which now is, is the bondchild and in bondage with her children. This means that old law system.
It is not America. It is not Rome. It is all false religions, clinging to that law, and thus rejecting Grace.
That destroying Wind which came against her, was the coming of the Holy Ghost on the Day of Pentecost. That brought in the New Testament Covenant of Grace. this is the Holy City.
Law is that Babylon city. It covers this whole earth. As already stated here, these things are spiritual; not natural. The carnal mind sees it as natural nations. It is not. It is Spiritual. God's word is about spiritual matters, not natural things.
Those of the Old Covenant had to flee to the New Covenant, in order to be saved. They had to leave that 'old Jerusalem; Law' and come into the New Jerusalem; Grace. Else they would be lost. They had to forsake that old law system and come into the Baptism of the holy Ghost or be lost.
It is still true today. You must leave that old church system, which still clings to law and come into the New Jerusalem of Baptism of the Holy Ghost. This is the only way into the Holy City, the New Jerusalem.
These two Jerusalems are spiritual. They are not the natural Jerusalem on this earth. It has never been a natural nation. It was always a spiritual nation.
