I will show you the judgment on the great prostitute.—Rev. 17:1.

 

Babylon the Great, the world empire of false religion, has brought much reproach on God’s name. She has taught lies about God. She has prostituted herself spiritually by forming alliances with earth’s rulers. She has used her power and influence to exploit her flocks. And she has spilled much blood, including the blood of God’s servants. (Rev. 18:24; 19:2) Jehovah will destroy “the great prostitute” by means of “the ten horns” of “a scarlet-colored wild beast.” That figurative wild beast represents the United Nations. The ten horns represent the current political powers supporting that organization. At God’s appointed time, those political powers will turn on symbolic Babylon. They “will make her devastated and naked” by plundering her wealth and exposing her wickedness. (Rev. 17:3, 16) That swift destruction—as if in one day—will come as a shock to those who supported her, for she has long boasted: “I will never see mourning.”—Rev. 18:7, 8. w19.09 10 ¶10-11

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.

We have been taught to stand up for what is righteous and to defend truth. Babylon the great has perpetrated what is unrighteous and not only failed to defend  the truth, but has defended the lie. Because of her, God says she has  "corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality". She will be exposed for all her vile acts and maybe she will  threaten to expose all her co-conspirators who are part of the world governments, so perhaps for this reason the Scarlet coloured wild beast turns on her. Is this how Jehovah puts it into their heart to hate and devour BtG? Truthfully we may not know  exactly what is put into the heart of the wild beast but we do know that what ever it is, it will be from Jehovah of Armies and for all the right reasons.

The one showing favor to the lowly is lending to Jehovah
