Who fits this?
Rev 18:11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
Rev 18:15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
Rev 18:17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
IMO the ships delivered merchandise - They were not waiting to load their ships.

--- Quote from: ZekeSr on February 05, 2019, 06:40:45 AM ---Concerning those videos on the Chinese housing “boom”: I knew about the ghost cities, but I had no idea exactly why, nor how poorly constructed so many of them are. For the first time in history, ever since we went off the gold standard, every country in the world has their monetary system based on a Keynesian fiat system which is money backed by absolutely nothing tangible—nothing except a printing press and the people’s confidence (regardless of what anyone claims otherwise). It’s interesting that the first recorded incidence of fiat money dates back to China about 3000 years ago. It collapsed. And history has proven, without exception, that all fiat systems eventually seek their true intrinsic value, which is zero. In a bizarre sort of way, it almost seems like the Chinese have figured out how to take that fiat system and apply it beyond the monetary. They’re “printing” worthless housing along with the money—housing that seeks its true value…zero.
I’m not at all certain about where the reference to Babylon truly lies. But… The U. S. dollar is the world’s reserve currency. It’s fiat money, along with trillions of dollars of debt. And I don’t know which one of the dominos is going to be the one at the front of the line… maybe the U.S. or maybe even some small unnoticed domino will set off the whole line. Whatever does it, I do know this: When that first domino falls, it is going to whack the U. S. and all the others will follow. When that system collapses, which it will, the repercussions are going to be massive.

Do those scriptures have dual messages in them Dennis.?
Rev, 11,17,and 15
Since the physical symbols represents the spiritual I understood the ship being a church
They have shipmasters, sailors on the sea of humanity and the merchants are merchants of death.
They are brokers for the souls of men. They sell salvation. They use the fear of going to hell
to sell their product. And they keep the power to rule this way .
Wikipedia,,, Early Christians thought of the church as a ship.
When Babylon falls the merchants will indeed weep and wail. There goes their business.
All the company in ships stood afar of ( separated)
Anyway that’s my two cents.
Also, There is a book called The Merchants of Death. In the 1930’s The US attacked
industries and banks that supplied and funded WW1 for profit.
,,, The war profiteers (Military Industrial Complex)are making money as never before. They are benefiting from conflict as never before.
I read this in an article or Wikipedia, cant remember..
From The Utter Descruction of Babylon in Jeremiah.
Jer.51:7..... Babylon was a golden cup in the Lords hand,making all the earth drunken, the nations
ESV. drank of her wine ,therefore the nations went mad.
8, suddenly Babylon has fallen and been broken, wail for her, take balm for
pain, perhaps she may be healed.13..O you who dwell by many waters, rich in
treasures, your end has come , the thread of your life is cut.
Rev18:10
They will stand afar of in fear of of her torment.ALAS!ALAS![WOE!WOE!] You great city
Babylon, for in a single hour your judgement has come.
Rev.19:2
For His judgements are true and just for He has judged the great prostitute who
corrupted the earth with her immorality and has avenged on her the blood of His
servents.
Rev.18:4
Come out of Her my people. In Christ, Pamela

The United States imported $2.9 trillion in 2017. That includes $2.4 trillion in goods and $534 billion in services.
America is the world's largest importer. Its imports vastly exceed those of second-place China, importing $1.731 trillion, and the European Union, which imports $1.727 trillion. Combined, these countries import $5.8 trillion, or one-third of the world's total imports of $15.34 trillion. They’re the world's best customers.

Yes, China (and Russia) have been buying up huge quantities of gold over the past number of years. And there is no doubt as to their intentions. That is actually something I wrote about in a book a few years back. But the fact remains that the yuan is still fiat money regardless of its supposed status. The Yuan cannot be converted for physical gold, even though China claimed it would be convertible; and there has already been a “fork in the road” since the launch. Now it is the petro/gold backed yuan. Regardless of the vast quantity in China’s possession, she would have to guarantee conversion in order for it to have an impact. And the value of gold would have to skyrocket in order to back up all of China’s paper.
Don’t misunderstand me. I think China's actions do not bode well for the United States. And gold may very well be one of the dominos. The U.S. has been foolishly disparaging gold for decades. No one even knows how much gold the U.S. has in reserve. When Germany asked for some of her reserves that were being held in American vaults to be transferred back to Germany, our response was very much of a delaying tactic. American authorities would not even allow an audit. And the gold which could have easily be transported in quick time was allocated by the American government to be returned over a period of years. Thus, it raised quite a few eyebrows and rumors. Fort Knox hasn’t been properly inventoried since the days of Eisenhower, in spite of several requests by Congressmen. The so-called audits that have been conducted were mere inspections of the seals on the lower vaults. That is hardly confirmation of what an inventory log book claims to be on the inside.
