There are more than enough indicators in Rev. 17 to indict Roman Catholicism as the whore. She sits on seven hills; their clergy wear purple and scarlet; they killed the saints and martyrs who wouldn't bend the knee to the papacy (Foxes Book of Martyrs); she is fabulously rich with jewels, gold, precious stones; her tentacles reach worldwide; she has raised and deposed kings; her kingdom is of this world unlike Christ's whose was not; her golden cup is full of the idolatrous fabrication that her priests can turn wine into the actual blood of Christ; her daily masses are a sham where they proclaim that they are sacrificing Christ over and over again. Her days are numbered. Flee from her.

You are so right in your assessment of what this woman represents.

I would encourage others to read the history of Catholicism from it's conception.

Also note the the comments the Pope of today has made and is promoting.

...... Rev 18:24 - And in her (Babylon) was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

Rev 16:6 - For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.

Rev 17:6 - And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

Mystery Babylon killed the prophets

Jesus speaking Luke 13:33 - Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.

Jesus - Matthew 23:37 - O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

the two witnesses of God are mentioned here:

Rev 11:8 - And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

Jesus, MY LORD was crucified in JERUSALEM, which is spiritually called Sodom and Egypt. NOT Rome or in Mecca or the USA

Jerusalem killed the prophets, not Rome, and since babylon killed the prophets = Jerusalem

Ezekiel 16:2 - Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,

Malachi 2:11 - Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.
