Dear John,
  I love the doves and this website! I check it everyday. Jan, Peggy, and all, thanks for your e-mails. They are wonderful. ( And what math geniuses do we have! All that figuring is really wow, and very impressive.) No way do I have the brains for that. Anyway,
  I have a question or debate about Mystery Babylon.  It sees that alot of serious Bible scholars do not think it is America at all -- which I am relieved, as they show Mystery Babylon as being a real city --with that very name, that is "up and coming," somewhere in Iran or Iraq.  In the light of how the facts ( name, historical Babylon, and how Babylon is being rebuilt, the actual physical location, the 10 rulers and etc)  stack up with Revelation, I don't think it is Amercia either. Please review
www.gracethrufaith.com by Jack Kelley, see what you think. He makes a really good case
about it not being Amercia at all -- and that there are more things that have to come about before Jesus and The Rapture can occur, in order to fulfill the prophecies.From what I gathered, there is more time because more things need to come to pass.
  Okay, so if Mystery Babylon is not America, -- what about all these folks that have dreams about Amercia as being the Mystery Babylon? ( Who to believe, is the bigger question I guess.)
  Thank you,
Elizabeth
