The Bible talks about Babylon as an historic place, but it also speaks of it as a place-holder for all that is evil. Babylon is spoken about in Revelations as a place that still exists at the end times, it is a place we are to get out of. If Babylon arose in the distant path and its features remain at the end, then we can assume it is present with us, today. In fact, Babylon is used to illustrate the empire of the flesh. If we are to separate, where do we go, if the world is under the rule of the Babylonian mandate? Apologon is a term developed to give us something to refer to when speaking of what it would be like to be outside of Babylon, to live in a different way than the world of the flesh does. Apologon in this sense, is a city of the spirit as Babylon is the city of the flesh.
