Shall Sincere People Who Remain in Mystery Babylon Antichrist System Be Saved?
No. Sincerity inside Babylon will not save anyone who remains in her. God commands His own to come out. If a person stays in that Antichrist system after the Word calls them, they become partaker of her sins and will receive her plagues.
Scriptural Explanation
- “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues” (Revelation 18:4).
- “Be ye not unequally yoked… come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord” (2 Corinthians 6:14–18).
- “If any man worship the beast and his image… the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God” (Revelation 14:9–11).
- “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27).
- “In vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men” (Mark 7:7).
- “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Proverbs 14:12).
- “Because they received not the love of the truth… God shall send them strong delusion… that they all might be damned who believed not the truth” (2 Thessalonians 2:10–12).
- The Bride is a called‑out, blood‑washed people, seen separated unto the Lamb (Revelation 7:9–17) and reigning with Christ (Revelation 20:4). That’s not Babylon; that’s out of Babylon.
Simple Clarifying Logic
- Sincerity without truth cannot save. Cain was sincere; Uzzah was sincere; but they were outside God’s Word and were judged.
- If sincerity could save in Babylon, God would not command, “Come out of her, my people.” To stay after the call is to share her sins and her judgment.
- The sheep hear His voice and follow Him out. Those who cling to the system show they love the system more than the truth.
Reinforcing statement
God saves by the blood of Jesus Christ through faith and obedience to His Word, not by the safety of a system or the warmth of tradition. The Bride hears the call and comes out. Therefore, sincere people who remain in Mystery Babylon will not be saved; they must come out to Christ and His Word.

Notice. Noah in his days (we spoke of it this morning), in his days it was a great intellectual time, and men were smart. And Noah and his great intellectual age, God came down to save the elected people. Do you believe God has an elected church? Certainly He does. And He comes to save that elected. The rest of them, it's just common cannon fodder. But He knows that there's going to be so many of them saved because He put their names on the Lamb's book of life before the foundation of the world. That's exactly acco...

QUESTION: "Were the five of the virgins lost?" I presume that they are asking the question, the five virgins, the five wise and the five foolish. Now, if you were with us in the last teachings in Revelation, you find out there that those virgins, the five foolish virgins were not lost; but they were not permitted to go in to the wedding supper, but they suffered persecution and was martyred, and raised again at the general resurrection in the last day. Those are the people where He separated the sheep from the goat...

There's only two classes of people will be on the earth; those with the seal of God, and those with the mark of the beast, only two classes. So you'll have to have one or the other. And it'll be an apostasy, a mark of a religion, apostate religion. And it's going to have a image unto the beast. As we study, we find out that Rome was, is, and always will be the beast. Exactly. There's no way to get anything else---Rome. And what did Rome do? Was converted from pagan Rome unto papal Rome and organized a system, a uni...

Then you would say to me, "Brother Branham, what is the mark of a Christian? Who will be saved? Will you, Brother Branham?" I'm trusting that to God. I don't know. I'm believing that I am. I'm comparing my life daily with the Word. If it don't live up to this Word, then there's something wrong, I got to go back and get right. "Well, say, Brother Branham, when people speak with tongues, don't that mean they're saved?" No, sir! No, indeed! I've heard witches and wizards speak with tongues. All kinds of nonsense. I've...
