Weird Email

Some people make blogging really easy for me. Being a minister I get emails all the time from people with religious backgrounds wanting my opinion on things. I usually don't have a problem answering the questions, but sometimes the conversation can get a bit weird. Below is an email that I received today. I really do not know what to think of it so you can read it for yourself. I have purposely removed their name and link to their website.

Title: The Harlot of Revelation 17-18

Over the years you have been serving the Lord faithfully. An everlasting paradise beyond the exosphere awaits all of you. Do not let the "great whore" rob you of immortality in the
Kingdom of God. The bitch-witch, who is that last great enemy of God; the she-beast, Who is the bride of the Beast of Revelation, will pollute the world with immorality. She will disperse her "abominations" to all the nations. The idolatrous woman will extol her religions of
consumerism and materialism. Among her limitless arsenal of weapons, she will utilize pornography, casino gambling, careerism, frenzied consumerism, new age religions, and easy credit to lure humans onto the path that leads to eternal damnation. Do not permit
secular bureaucrats and powerful CEOs of the corporate world force the doctrines of the Lord's church to conform to the dominant, ungodly ideology of the filthy prostitute. God expects you to be soldiers, not conformists.

He will not overlook your attempts, regardless of whether it's intentional or not, to mislead your sheep as to the identity of the end-time whore. Do not let all those years of hard work go to waste. You must do your part in preventing others from "sharing in her plagues".
You know about the false doctrines that the wicked woman preaches in her media and within the confines of her cultural institutions. Therefore, you know what to preach against. The spirit of "Mystery Babylon" is present in virtually every nation (“She sits on many waters),
particularly in America, Japan, and Germany. These three nations hold the most seats in the WTO, IMF, and World Bank. These three global financial institutions play an integral role in the integration of the world economy. Revelation 18 "for thy merchants (business people; not her
priests, ministers, or pastors) were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived". Her merchants will come mainly from the three aforementioned nations.

Mystery Babylon cannot be a Church or one of the monotheistic religions. It is a global economic superpower (Revelation 18:9-24). Please try to overcome any bias or prejudice you may have toward other denominations or major traditional religions. Help put an end to the cut-throat
capitalist competition that has penetrated many churches. It is abomination unto the Lord. God will deal deadly blows to Japan in the form of tsunamis and earthquakes. China’s army will finish her off. For it was God who formed the mushroom clouds in Hiroshima and Nagasaki as punishment for the atrocities committed in China by the killer dwarfs.
