Because it is a cult and condemned by the Bible.
JUST ABOUT EVERY RELIGION TO A DEGREE FITS A CULT, scripture, Romans 3:10 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Romans 3:11 "There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. (ok we can stop on just these two verses)

Romans 3:12 "They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. (well, theses three verses)

Romans 3:13 "Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
Romans 3:14 "Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness
Romans 3:15 "Their feet [are] swift to shed blood:
Romans 3:16 "Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:
Romans 3:17 "And the way of peace have they not known:
Romans 3:18 "There is no fear of God before their eyes.

well who is the apostle talkin abour? go back to verse 9, Romans 3:9 "What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin".

that just about covered everyone. Romans 12:3 "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Since you're knowledgeable about the illuminati, do you think that America is going to collapse soon? I read that's their plan, and for all intents and purposes it looks like it's galloping right along. We're being overrun with immigrants as one of their stated goals, whites are being marginalized (Ilhan Omar just said "America is not going to be white anymore." And the little dodo Alexandria Ocasio is pushing Agenda 21 in feel-good language. Republican Matt Gaetz is now pushing it in "The Green New Deal Lite." Manufacturing has left, and drugs flooded into every city in America. I believe this was to kill off the whites and blacks - the illuminati only want dumbed down people they said; who they can control. These legislators are woefully uninformed.

The Vatican is something evil. I'm still working my way through Revelations.
Though America has been the mouth piece, as well as the strong arm of persuasion for the new world order, simultaneously, it is being manipulated, shaped and coerced to fit into the equality of nations, under the global legislative governance of the UN. (The image of the beast).

The Vatican is only one of the many visible churches that are along for the ride. What's coming is going to shake their foundations to ruination, and then they all will be dumped.
The new world Religion has nothing to do with a religion, whether it be Catholic, Protestant or Islam!
It will be all about: "Save The Earth" .
Go ahead and try to say that you won't!
It goes against your very own fleshly existence!

It has everything to do with religion.

In the save the earth, etc. as part of a religion. Mainly atheism.

But when you look at the rest of the descriptions, it is most assuredly Rome.

You didn't answer me. Are you Catholic?
Nope!
Now, how about you answering my question:
Where in what great city was also our Lord crucified? Rev. 11:8

Christ was not crucified in any city.
I didn't write what I quoted. The Holy Spirit through John wrote it, and made reference to "the great city".
You either go with what that "great city" was, or make things up as you go along.

Mystery Babylon is a system that began with Nebuchadnezzar. As the statue of Daniel shows it has continued to present day.

Prophetically it will be the restored Roman Empire with capital in Rome. The religion will be Roman Catholicism returned to its pagan Roman religious roots. It's Emperor and god will be the AC and head priest the false prophet Pope.
You are terribly confused.
There is no one man band, miracle man, that you call "THE" Antichrist to come. Stop reading your Westcott and Hort comic book bibles. Don't you know that such a belief as yours, just might be the strong delusion that God is sending, to believe a lie?

While all you PTs will be looking for your "boy wonder" , the Lord will "suddenly come to (and for) His temple".
For all of your "Left Behind" series, you WILL be left behind.

That great city is Rome.

It says it will be destroyed never to be lived in again.

Jerusalem exists in the Bible to the last chapter.

In Rev. There are two Jerusalems called the great cities. One is called the Mother of harlots, the other is the people of God.

I think we need to look at what Rome represented at that time. It was the hub of international commerce. The world revolved around Rome. Rome was the de factor controller of the world.

I think if we extrapolate that meaning and apply it to today we'll come to the conclusion of what mystery Babylon represents. I believe it is an antichrist world financial/governmental system that usurps authority from Yahweh. The UN provides the framework for a modern day reconstruction of a world government.

The Bible says the AC is a man, not a system.

Remember the verse about the 666 number of a man?

No, stated that wrong. One is the Mother of harlots, and the other is the Mother of us all.
