"GET OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, IF YOU DO NOT
  WANT  TO  SHARE  WITH  HER  IN  HER  SINS".
(Revelation 18:4).

"Get out of her" means that one must stop attending every place of sectarian false worship: Every church, congregation, temple, kingdom hall, etc, etc. This is absolutely vital if one is to escape from "Babylon the great". Revelation 18:1-24 refers to the fierce "wine" of her false teachings, injustices, killings, self glorification, shameless luxury and fornications. The locations where these Godless acts are carried out are not individually described, for they are within and among those guilty of them. Membership of or affiliation with a particular sect or sectarian organization will not exempt you from the Judgement of God about to fall upon spiritistic "Babylon", if sectarian worship as exposed by The Opened "Little Scroll" exists in and among you.  (Rev 10:8-11).

Revelation 7:14 speaks of a "great crowd" of people "that come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." This symbolically described sanctification is not instantaneous upon one's belief in Jesus' shed blood for the forgiveness of sins (otherwise becoming a Christian 'in the last hour' would become a reality). No, rather it is progressive spirit cleansing. For until spirit cleansing of the "great crowd" takes place through the "great tribulation", Revelation 7:15-17 cannot be fulfilled. As it is written: "...and they washed the robes of them and they whitened them in the blood of the Lamb. Through this they are in sight of the throne of The God".  (7:14 Greek T.)

Those of the "great crowd" cannot say: "Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb" until they have been finally saved. (7:10). Salvation is only through faithfully enduring the "great tribulation". But while many render Jehovah sacred service, to state that Revelation 7:15-17 is fulfilled today is presumptuousness beyond belief. *

The "elders" of Revelation 7:11 represent the 144,000 Spirit anointed sons of God gathered to heaven before God's throne. All this will take place before the fulfilment of verses 15 to17.

The salvation of the offspring of the "great crowd" of "other sheep" will be completed after a final test of their integrity, when the thousand years have ended and satan is let loose out of his prison to mislead them: "Gog and Magog", advancing over the breadth of the earth and encircling the camp of the holy ones and the beloved city. (Rev 20:7-9). Those not misled are saved and will be resurrected to everlasting heavenly spirit life.

* The above spiritual teaching is a correction of the apostate interpretation of the Word of God by the sect of JWs in their publication: 'Then is Finished the Mystery of God.'  (Pg. 205-208).

"And I heard another voice out of heaven say: "Get out of her, My people, if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues. For her sins have massed together clear up to heaven, and God has called her acts of injustice to mind."  (Rev 18:4,5).
