WHO ELSE WILL MOURN HER?
Who are the merchants of the earth that will also weep at religion's destruction? Are they the banking institutions? Revelation 18:11 tells the kind
of relationship religion has HAD with the merchants. By examining this we will know the identity of them. Revelation 18:11-13 says the merchants of
the earth will weep and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes anymore. cargoes of gold, silver, precious stones and pearls; fine linen,
purple, silk and scarlet cloth; every sort of citron wood, and articles of every kind made of ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron and marble; cargoes of
cinnamon and spice, of incense, myrrh and frankincense, of wine and olive oil, of fine flour and wheat; cattle and sheep; horses and carriages; and
human beings sold as slaves.
Does the banking institution make a profit from selling merchandise? No. The banking system makes profit from holding currency, lending money with
interest attached so the merchants cannot be the world system of banking. Who are they? They're none other than the commercial industry! We see that
they sell to the religions of the world, banks do not sell things. Banks may deal in precious metals such as gold, silver & jewelry but what about
the rest of the inventory? Banks don't sell possess such things but commercialism does. What do the commercial industry sell? They sell everything in
these verses. Religions worldwide makes extravagant purchases to furnish their places of worship. They purchase the finest of linen, jewelry, precious
metals, bronze, marble & iron for their statues, fragrances to burn, wine to certain observances, olive oils & the other items were mainly purchased
in biblical times. Trade & commercialism's main route of transport is made by exporting across waters. This is another identifying mark that Big
businesses in the exporting industry will be the ones mourning her loss. (Revelation 18:16-19)
Interesting information to also add is that when religion will be done away with Revelation 18:22 & 23 goes on to say that no more music or
instruments will be heard coming from religious institutions, no more builders & craftsmen will decorate them, no light will illuminate buildings for
their doors will be closed, no more laughter of brides & grooms with their marriages taking place there.
