Revelation 17:1–6 — The Judgment of Babylon Lexham English Bible (LEB) 17 And one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who live on the earth became drunk with the wine of her sexual immorality.” 3 And he carried me away into the wilderness in the Spirit, and I saw a woman seated on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, holding a golden cup in her hand full of detestable things and the unclean things of her sexual immorality. 5 And on her forehead a name was written, a mystery: “Babylon the great, the mother of prostitutes and of the detestable things of the earth.” 6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints and with...

I have heard from a number of Christians that god chose Trump. They support and defend Trump no mater what his character proves to be because "god chose him." I've wondered a lot about this.

Many of us believe that the meddling was for the purpose to get Trump elected. Trump has been asked if he has ever communicated with Putin before the elections and he repeatedly says he has not. I came across various interviews with Trump in 2013, the year he had the Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow Russia and he said then that he had talked with Putin both "directly and indirectly" in the interviews. Trump has at least twice met up with and talked with ...
