The Satan operates through a system known as Babylon. This system appears in many places and takes on different forms throughout the ages. It disorients and draws people away from God's way of life. To live faithfully within Babylon means recognizing its patterns while resting in the assurance that one day, Jesus will bring this system to its final end. God's people are not called to destroy the system of the Satan, but to entrust their lives to God's care and live in such a way that their shared life becomes a signpost—pointing to the coming day of God's new creation and enduring faithfulness. This leads us to rest even in the midst of disorienting days.
Scriptures: Revelation 17, 18; Genesis 6, 10, 11
