Babylon is fallen, fallen? Is 21:9

Wouldn't it be a sorry sight when we get to heaven and see that much of our labors were to try to raise Babylon from its fallen state. We think it is our job to resurrect the trampling that the Lord's foot is doing on our idolatry. He is trampling Babylon under His feet, through His Bride the church and we are setting up levers and hoya lifts to pick it up. I think that there was certainly a falling in Daniel's day as he broke the Word of God down for the people and prevailed in prayer with God. We have access to the great God of creation, Daniel bellowed to the deafened, educated world of his day. A Savior is coming and in the fullness of time, we will see that the kingdoms of this world is become the kingdom of our Lord, because of the sacrifice of Christ. Catechisms and Creeds, traditions of faith and life-giving habits are the toes of the feet trampling the Babylon under the feet of Christ. We still try to resurrect the pieces of the statue of subjugation and demoralization in our civilizations, but ultimately, Christ wins the conflict, regardless of our insane efforts to work against Him. Glory, Halleluia, His truth is marching...on!
