Shall Those in Mystery Babylon Who Never Hear the Call Be Lost?
Direct Answer
If a person lives and dies in Mystery Babylon without ever coming out, they will be judged with her. God will not leave His Bride in Babylon; His own will hear the call and come out. Those who never hear and remain are not His Bride.
Scriptural Explanation
- “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins… that ye receive not of her plagues” (Revelation 18:4). Those who stay share her judgment (Revelation 18:5–8).
- “My sheep hear my voice… and they follow me” (John 10:27–28). “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me” (John 6:37). “He that is of God heareth God’s words” (John 8:47).
- “Their sound went into all the earth” (Romans 10:18). God gives witness so men are “without excuse” (Romans 1:19–20). “God… now commandeth all men every where to repent” (Acts 17:30).
- Those who cling to the beast system receive wrath (Revelation 14:9–11).
- The Bride is a called‑out people with the Lamb (Revelation 7:9–17) and reigns with Christ (Revelation 20:4). None of them remain in Babylon.
Simple Clarifying Logic
- If a soul is truly His, the Bible says they will hear and follow. God does not lose His own or fail to reach them.
- Therefore, the only ones who die in Babylon are those who were not His Bride; they shared her sins and so share her plagues.
Reinforcing statement
God is just and faithful. He calls, gathers, and keeps His Bride. Those who never come out of Babylon are judged with Babylon; those who are His hear His voice and come out.

The uncertain sound
60-1218 §77
"We which are alive and remain shall not prevent, or hinder, those which are asleep," for the trumpet shall sound. All those soldiers laying yonder asleep, across through the ages, but when the trumpet sounds, though they be dead in sleep, it shall not hinder them, for the trumpet shall sound and awaken them. They're prepared. Those unprepared don't know the sound. When that sound of the coming of the Lord blasts, it'll shake heaven and hell when it blasts. But those who are in hell, those who are lost, don't know...

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...
