We've got a book of a similar title, in that my book is entitled "Come Out of Her, God's People" with the subtitle, "Don't Receive Her Plagues."

My brother, on 9/11, I had the bible opened to Rev.18:4 when I watched the second tower fall. The connections were incredible: the chapter's emphasis on trade and "the world trade center," the dust that covered everyone, the fact that NYC is surrounded by a sea, that the people were standing by weeping, the fact that it all took place "in one hour."

So I went about warning friends and family in NYC to "come out of her" and move either upstate or out of the state of NY entirely. Gradually, I came... More > to the point where you are now, "of the possibility that Jesus was referring to America."

However, there is a real problem with that. It is not an easy thing to pack up and leave the best country in the world. Where in God's name would we go. I'll read your book and hopefully, I'll find out!!! lol

Well, my book has a different perspective. Mystery Babylon is certainly "a mystery." I believe that it consists of the entire world system, with religion as a major component. So when I write "Come Out of Her," I perceive that the "Her" is the organized church or organized religion.

How about "I read your book," "you read my book," and then let's communicate.

"Kirkus Discoveries Review"
Interpretation of the Book of Revelation, with special emphasis on the identity of Babylon. Inspired by the events of September 11, 2001, Steinle decided to conduct an in-depth study of the New Testament Book of Revelation. He of course treads well-covered ground, and his conclusion will come as little surprise—the fall of the World Trade Center, he intones, may be the beginning sign of the fall of the Great City of Babylon as described in Revelation. Steinle’s opening chapters describe in detail the various prophesies revealed to John at Patmos, drawing in other biblical literature as well, such as from the Book of Daniel and the apocalyptic sayings of Jesus... More > in the Gospels. The author brings up the intriguing possibility that the city of Babylon does not represent a single nation but perhaps a world government or federation, but he still believes that the United States, as a single world superpower, may be the center or beginning of such a dominating global force. He points out that two major prophecies have yet to come to fruition: global persecution of Christians and the marking of citizens in order to be able to conduct commerce. Both prophecies, he believes, are possibilities within the foreseeable future. Steinle’s approach differs from those of many other writers on this topic in a major way: He is careful not to make absolute statements or to definitively interpret this very difficult scripture. By presenting his ideas as possible interpretations only, he succeeds in maintaining credibility even with the skeptical reader. His conclusion—that Christians may want to flee the U.S. if it truly is the biblical Babylon—is intimated rather than bluntly stated. Steinle’s reading of scripture is certainly fundamental in approach, but modest enough to be a welcome read to a wide audience.
Modest, yet traditionalist, reading of Revelation.
