Can you specifically identifie BABYLON THE GREAT MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And who the harlots and the abominations of the earth are.
Exact details are worth the ten points.
 
Hello. Some may be offended by this answer. But I do not mean to imply that the members of any of the entities that I identify in my answer are not the redeemed of God. It is the leadership of these entities that are in error.
So we must identify BABYLON first: Revelation 17
1And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: (here the waters are the many different ethnic peoples of the world)

2With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. (here we see that she has international or global influence)

3So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. (the woman represents the Catholic church)

4And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: (these are the colors that Catholic clergy wear during their huge ceremonies)

5And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

When we look at the history of Christendom. We find that all of the main protestant or protester denominations came out of Catholicism and all of the many other denominations are derivatives of those. As such they are her daughters or the Harlots.
The Abominations are false teachings that give favor or a false creditability to all false religions of the earth.
Grace be with all those that love Yeshua Messiah in all sincerity. Amen.
 
The founding of the city of Babylon on the Plains of Shinar was concurrent with the attempt at building the Tower of Babel. (Ge 11:2-9) The popular cause to be advanced by the tower and city construction was, not the exaltation of God’s name, but that the builders might “make a celebrated name” for themselves. The ziggurat towers uncovered not only in the ruins of ancient Babylon but elsewhere in Mesopotamia would seem to confirm the essentially religious nature of the original tower, whatever its form or style. The decisive action taken by Jehovah God to overthrow the temple construction clearly condemns it as of a false religious origin. Whereas the Hebrew name given the city, Babel, means “Confusion,” the Sumerian name (Ka-dingir-ra) and the Akkadian name (Bab-ilu) both mean “Gate of God.” Babylon the Great places herself above earthly kings, exercising power and influence over them. She rides the symbolic seven-headed beast, beasts being used elsewhere in the Bible as symbols of political world powers.
