Rome Becomes a Harlot
Rome is described as the great
Harlot. In the Old Testament
Heathen, immoral, godless cities
Are described as harlots.
Nineveh was called the well
Favored harlot. It is said of,
Jerusalem, How is the faithful
city become a harlot.
Ezekiel charged: Thou didst trust
in thine own beauty and playest
the harlot. Rome is called a harlot.
Because she prostituted herself with devils.
When we give something other than
God the first place in our lives, it
Is sin against love. It is infidelity.
It thinks of God as the lover.
Rome is called the great harlot,
Because she is an allurement
To Godlessness and immorality.
She invites and seduces others to sin.
Nations shared in the idolatries,
And in the vices of Rome, because
She taught them to sin, and that
Is why her judgment is so complete.
