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.

See, deceive the elected if it were possible, see. They know. Jesus said, "My sheep know my Word." "Oh," you say, "hear my voice." That's His Word. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word," see. The predestinated knows this. A strange word or strange voice, they won't follow. That's the way with those fellows back there, they wouldn't follow... They knowed that Martin was there, a prophet of that age, identified by God through the Word, knowed the Word. And that man wouldn't stand before him.

QUESTION: Now. Brother Branham, is it true that every Jew born since Christ came will be saved, and who are the 144,000? Are they the predestinated ones to be sealed with the Holy Ghost, and what is their mission? There's about three questions in one there. But here, the first one is: Is it true that every Jew born since Christ that came into the world is to be saved? No. Nothing will be saved, only those whose names were put on the Lamb's book of life before the foundation of the world, Jew or Gentile. That's all....

Now, we notice. And, in the Old Testament, they had what they called the jubilee year. That was when all the people, that was slaves, could go free when the jubilee sounded. And then if a man did not go out, if there was some excuse that he could give, that he didn't want to return to his land, then he had to be marked in the ear, with an awl, by the post in the temple. And then no matter how many jubilees come along, that man was sold out. He could never no more come back as a citizen in Israel, no more. What did...
God doesn't call man to judgement without warning

If no repentance, then judgment is sure to come! Hezekiah repented, see. Nineveh repented. Ahab never repent. Nebuchadnezzar never repent. The people in Noah's time never repent, and the judgment swept right on in, see. Now, but He first warns everybody. Everybody gets a warning. Now, seeing the time is at hand, let everyone that feels that there is a warning, repent quickly before the wrath of God strikes. Now let's bring it down to the Branham Tabernacle.
