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.

Hear His Voice
58-1005M §60
Daniel, down in Babylon, (as we spoke of him last night), he had purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the Babylonian doctrines. But one day down there, Daniel got in need. And he knowed he wanted to hear the voice of God. Yet he had the Scriptures. But he needed to hear the voice of God. And he went down to the Shushan River. And he just didn't go down there and park his chariot and kneel down in the bulrushes and say, "Lord God, I want to hear You. Where are You at?" No, you don't do it that...
Abraham restored

Well, then, if God can use a cow, and a horse, and a sheep, and a bird by instinct to flee the wrath that's coming, you'd better get away from these big old walls of Babylon, and flee to Jesus Christ, 'cause she's going to crumble and fall one of these days. Remember, there was a stone cut out of the mountain without hands, come rolling into Babylon, and tearing it down wherever it went. And the kingdoms of this world will fall just as certain. Every man-made kingdom's got to sink so the kingdom of God can take the...

Now, our subject tonight begins in Babylon. And Babylon was first located, which it is yet, in the Shinar. And it was first called, "The gate of God," Babel, and later was called Babylon, which means "confusion." And Babylon appears in the first of the Bible, in Genesis; and it appears in the middle of the Bible; and it appears in the last of the Bible, the last book, Revelation. And being that it's all through the Bible, it must be in existence yet today

We must first realize that we're living in a day of skeptic, generation of people who will not believe. Jesus said, "Though the dead be raised, they wouldn't believe." Them Words has to be fulfilled. Somebody... Now, ninety percent that Satan promised he would have, has to be on the other side. We know that it has. No matter what would take place, they still would not believe it. They'll try to find some way to believe different. Even our Master was called Beelzebub, a spiritualist. And how much more will they call...
The Called-out

Now, when this Angel went to Sodom and begin to speak His message through a man, they mocked at him and laughed at him. And they would not receive the message. Neither do they do it today. It's the very same thing, and they won't believe it. There's only one thing left: that's judgment. But notice, the Bible said they'd be like that. In II Timothy 3, the Bible said that they will be. "In the last days the Spirit speaks expressingly." That's "directly," not to that day, but to the last day. "Men shall be heady, high...
