Does God use the wicked church to pronounce judgment on itself? Let's examine.

JUDGMENT FROM THE MOUTH OF THE WICKED: THE CHURCH DESTROYING ITSELF?

Lu 19:22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine OWN MOUTH will I **judge** thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

JUDGMENT FROM THE MOUTH OF THE RIGHTEOUS: DECLARATION THAT BABYLON IS FALLEN?

Ps 37:30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his TONGUE talketh of judgment.

Ps 119:13 With my lips have I declared all the judgments of THY MOUTH.

SWORD FOR SWORD: SWORD THAT KILLED THE ELECT IS THE SAME THAT KILLS BABYLON?

Re 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the SWORD must be killed with the SWORD. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

SUMMARY CONCLUSION

The Bible appears to be identifying God’s judgment as that which comes out of the mouth of the wicked (Babylon). That is judgment comes mainly in the form of the false prophets multiplying and speaking lies one to another. The Elect talking of judgment then would mean they proclaim that Babylon is fallen and that God’s judgment on the church is now revealed as He unseals the Bible. Although the unsaved church is the tool God uses to judge rather than the believers.
