12. Church called out.

ACK!

They probably used the word ekklesia as the basis for this. It makes me want to pound on someone's head.

It is very iffy in places too. We don't know when Satan fell. The "ministry of the eschatological antagonist is pure speculation; Christ always was the head; Babylon is too much to the fore in this, since it was just a city/empire/figure.
