In this week’s episode, Scott and Garrett dive deep into Revelation 14 and focus on one of the most intriguing images in Scripture — Babylon. What does Babylon represent, and why does it appear as a recurring symbol throughout the Bible?
Together, they trace Babylon’s story from its literal history in the Old Testament to its symbolic meaning as a picture of human pride, corruption, and rebellion against God — a theme that runs from the Tower of Babel all the way to the Book of Revelation.
The conversation explores:
The historical Babylon and the exile of God’s people
How Babylon becomes a spiritual archetype for worldly power and oppression
What it means for believers to “live in Babylon” today
Lessons from Daniel, Jeremiah, and early Christians on living faithfully in exile
How the teachings of Jesus call us to respond to division, injustice, and politics with humility, conviction, and love
This is a timely and thought-provoking discussion about faithfulness in a world that often feels far from home.
