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.

Look, when Jesus made that declaration, the world went right on. The world went right on normally. Why? For they knew not their hour. The world went right on when Noah went into the ark, the world moved right on. The scoffers, in that day, they still had sex parties. They still eat, drink, married, done the things they do today. Just exactly, normally. "Ah, that old holy roller closed the door. Did you ever hear such a thing? You know what He says? We're all going to be drowned. Nonsense. Where's the water at?" Sco...

You will recall that I brought out in the Ephesian Age that the word, Nicolaitane, comes from two Greek words: Nikao which means to conquer, and Lao which means the laity. Nicolaitane means, "to conquer the laity". Now why is this such a terrible thing? It is terrible because God has never placed His church in the hands of an elected leadership which moves with political mindedness. He has placed His church in the care of God-ordained, Spirit-filled, Word-living men who lead the people through feeding them the Word...

Again, He wants to call the attention of this court to the Word of promise that's in question. He never set any certain time for them to recover. He said, "The prayer of faith shall save the sick, and God shall raise them up." He didn't say "right then." "They shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." He never said, "a day, month, year." He just said, "They shall!" The defense witness wants you to know that, that He didn't say there'd be a miracle performed. He just said, "They shall recover!"

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...

...stolic age is over, don't you believe it. Such a statement is wrong on two counts. First of all, it is wrong to suppose there aren't any more apostles, just because the original twelve are dead. An apostle means a 'sent one'; and there are many sent ones today, but they are called missionaries. As long as men are being called and sent forth with the Word of Life there is an apostolic age going on. Secondly, they refer to an age of 'manifested Holy Ghost power' as being over since the Bible has been completed. That...
