Which of the two did the will of his father? They said to Him, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that the tax-collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax-collectors and the harlots believed him. And when you had seen it, you did not repent afterwards so that you might believe him.

But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fattened calf.

Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them the members of a harlot? Let it not be!

Or do you not know that he being joined to a harlot is one body? For He says, The two shall be one flesh.

By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace.

And in the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she had received the messengers and had sent them out another way?

And one of the seven angels who had the seven vials came and talked with me, saying to me, Come here, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot sitting on many waters,

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

And he says to me, The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues,

and the ten horns which you saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her desolate and naked. And they will eat her flesh and burn her with fire.

For true and righteous are His judgments. For He has judged the great harlot who defiled the earth with her fornication, and He has avenged the blood of His servants out of her hand.
