hence not God given, but taken from one another.

The god of the Babylonian Talmudic Illuminati Edomite/Canaanite "Jews" is Satan/Lucifer.

The thief (Satanic Pharisees) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. -Jesus Christ, John 10:10

Mystery = Musterion = silence or secrecy

The word "mystery" as applied to Babylon is a Greek word uvotýotov (Musterion) that carries the idea of silence or secrecy imposed by initiation into religious rites. The root word ów (Muo) means to shut the mouth. A good interpretation would be Secret Babylon. What is inferred here is that secret organizations would accumulate enough power to rule over the rulers of the world and at the same time keep their control hidden from public view. Ancient Babylon ruled openly, Mystery Babylon rules secretly. The name of Babylon was probably given to this center of world power because of its similarities to Ancient Babylon.

The word "mystery" also bears examination, for it comes from the Greek word "musterion", meaning: what is known only to the initiated, from a derivative of "muo," to shut the mouth. Through the idea of silence imposed by initiation, it comes to refer to a secret, or mystery. From the noun "mystery" comes the adjective "mystic" in reference to one who has been initiated into those secrets.

What Does the Bible Mean by the Term Mystery Babylon John speaking about this false religious system says, "Upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery Babylon, the great mother of harlots and abominations of the earth" (Jn 17:5). Since the Bible called this religious system Mystery Babylon, or the Babylonian Mysteries, what does the word “mystery” mean? The word mystery is the Greek word “musterion” which means “a secret i.e. through the idea of silence impose by initiation into a religious rite.” Since this is an occult mystery, lets see what the occult authorities have to say about it. The Encyclopedia Of Occultism And Parapsychology, under the heading of “Mysteries,” says it was “A term for what is secret or concealed in a religious context.... The mysteries were secret cults, to which only certain initiated people were admitted after a period of preliminary preparation.... But the mysteries appear to have circled around the semi-dramatic representation or mystery-play of the life of a deity." 108 Let my readers take note, the religious doctrines of the Mysteries centered around Semiramis’ Babylonian Trinitarian doctrine of the godhead.

Ancient Babylon was the the place where Satan's/Lucifer's secret/occult societies & religion originated from.

In the book entitled Secret Societies And Subversive Movements by Nesta Webster, under the sub-title "The Mysteries" we read, "Now from the earliest times groups of initiates or wise men have existed, claiming to be in possession of esoteric doctrines known as the Mysteries, incapable of apprehension by the vulgar, and relating to the origin and end of man, the life of the soul after death, and the nature of god or the gods.… The Initiates believe that the sacred mysteries should not be revealed to the profane but should remain exclusively in their own keeping." 109 Professor W. L. Bryan, in his work entitled The Republic Of Plato, made these statements about mystery religions before and after Plato time, "Passages in the Greek poets seem to indicate that the mysteries were intended to encourage belief in a future life, and in reward or punishment there, as merited by the life on earth. Certain of the rites were supposed to be a means of purification from sin, and reconciliation with the gods." Bryan went on to quote Plato as saying, "And they [the gods] produce a host of books written by Musaeus and Orpheus, who are children of the Moon [symbolism for Semiramis as Ashtoreth]…. They perform their ritual, and persuade not only individuals, but whole cities, that expiations and atonements for sin may be made by sacrifices.… [These religious doctrines] they call mysteries

When and Where Did the Mysteries of the Babylonian Religion Begin?

All the major doctrines of the mysteries of all the heathen nations had their beginnings at the Towel of Babel. The Encyclopedia Of Occultism And Parapsychology commenting on the Rev. G. Oliver's book entitled, The History Of Initiation (1829 AD), has this to say about the subject. The Reverend Oliver affirmed that the rites of the science, which is now received under the name of Freemasonry, were “practiced by man at the building of Babel…. At the dispersion [it] spread with every settlement.” 111 Hislop gave a very clear, accurate and extremely well documented historical account of the secret mysteries of the Babylonian Religion.

Who Started the Mysteries of the Babylonian Religion?

Now that it has been established when and where the mysteries began, who exactly can be credited with starting this religious system? According to history, it all started with Nimrod.
