Scripture Monday - Spiritual Warfare and the mother of abominations

My scripture study for the past couple days has been on Spiritual Warfare. 1 Nephi 14:13 mentions "the great mother of abominations". I found this article, "Warring against the Saints of God", by Stephen Robinson, to be a pretty good explaination of the whore of the Earth.

The article from the Ensign in 1988 didn't have the illustration included from the original publication. I looked up the artist, Robert T. Barrett, and recognized a lot of his work. I don't know what illustration they used for the article, so I chose this one as an example of his work. It is titled "Christ The Creator".
