 End Times #4 The Seven Trumpets of Revelation
 

Recap:

 

The Book of Revelation covers a series of Three Judgments of God. These Judgments clearly present the 3 in 1 Triune Nature of God.

 

The first judgment is the 7 Seals of Revelation and this judgment is conducted by God the Holy Spirit. In this Judgment God is judging mankind as unsuitable for fellowship and He is withdrawing - removing His Restraining influence on the sins of Humanity. As God removes His conviction of Sin from man, man is continuing to be more and more evil as man is acting out the very evil desires of the heart.

 

The second Judgment is the seven Trumpet judgments of Revelation. These Judgments are conducted by Jesus and are Judgments based on mankinds false worship of things other than Jesus.

 

The third Judgment is the seven Bowl Judgment as God the Father pours out His Judgment. Three Judgments revealing that the Triune 3 in 1 God is in concert in agreement and One as to the need to rightly Judge mankind and the world.

The Seven Trumpets of Revelation 
 

There are two main Biblical uses for sounding a Trumpet the first is a call to congregate it is a call to sound a gathering like during the Rapture when the Church is called to gather together with Jesus in Heaven . 1st Corinthians 15:52 & 1 Thessalonians 5:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: (the seven trumpets of Revelation are sounded by Angels. The Rapture trumpet is sounded by God) and the dead in Christ shall rise first:. The second use of trumpets are a call to signal a battle either a battle by attack or a battle by defense. These seven Trumpets in Revelation are trumpets to signify a battle and are not a call to a gathering to congregate, therefore these seven trumpets occur after the Rapture of the Church. The Rapture of the Church occurs in Revelation 4:1 and not later in Revelation at the seventh trumpet as some would place it.

 

Revelation 8:6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

 

1st Trumpet - Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. These are Judgments of Jesus as He judges the things that mankind has put their faith, trust, fellowship and worship into. Remember the Church will be Raptured from the earth prior to the First Seal Judgment so it is only non-believers that remain on the earth and Jesus sets out to show the world that they are engaged in False Worship and are putting their trust into things that are not permanent. Jesus Begins to Judge and cause to fail the things that are hindering a relationship with Jesus. People are worshiping the creation and not Jesus the Creator so Jesus starts by removing aspects of creation. People are worshiping Nature so in His love for people Jesus is going to destroy the trees and vegetation to show people that a Relationship with Him is more important to Him than all the trees and plants of the world combined.

 

2nd Trumpet - Revelation 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea:  and the third part of the sea became blood; And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. Jesus is continuing to show mankind that dolphins, whales and other sea creatures as spectacular as they are they are not to be worshiped but the Creator of Creation Jesus is.

 

3rd Trumpet - Revelation 8:10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. There is only source of Living Water and Jesus is that source. Many people will physically die because of a lack of physical water but many people will also Spiritually become alive because they will find Jesus the source of Living Water.

 

4th Trumpet - Revelation 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. God will not even allow the sun, moon or the stars to get in the way of a relationship between man and God. Jesus is showing that Astrology is for fools as even the stars are not permanent but Jesus and His Kingdom are permanent!

 

Revelation 8:13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, Woe, Woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! Here we have an additional trouble for mankind on earth. Each of these woes is a demonic attack on mankind. Mankind besides worshiping nature and the stars is also worshiping demons and demonic spirits. Now these demonic spirits are going to reveal their true nature as murders and tormentors of mankind and they will torment and kill many people. Remember people are created in the image of God. Demonic spirits are not in the image of God, they hate God and are out to destroy anything that is in the image of God especially us people.

 

5th Trumpet & 1st Woe - Revelation 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. This demonic spirit is named Abanddon or Apollyon and he is given the ability to unlock and free many evil demonic spirits that God has kept locked away for the protection of mankind. People choosing fellowship with demons will now find out what demonic fellowship is as demons that have been deceiving mankind since the days of Adam and Eve will now reveal their true nature as mans tormentors and murders.

 

Revelation 9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and  shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. People will attempt to escape their circumstances and torment by committing suicide but God is revealing that He alone has authority over where the human spirit resides, and how long it resides in the human physical body. On the cross Jesus commanded His Spirit to leave His body but this is not an option for a human.

 

6th Trumpet & 2nd Woe - Revelation 9:14,15 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. Theses four imprisoned evil spirits are now freed and being free they will through war kill 1/3 of the men living in the world at that time.

 

7th Trumpet - Revelation 11:14,15 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. It is the woe that is coming quickly this last Trumpet actually occurs at the end of Revelation in unison with the Last Seal and the Last Bowl. 

 

3rd Woe - Revelation 12:9,12 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea (some demons inhabit the sea/water)! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Finally Satan Himself is the third woe and at this point the world is actually worshiping Satan but they will soon find out that as the Bible says, Satan is the father of death and destruction and Satan Himself will continue and even more fiercely wage his war with mankind the war that he started in Gods garden of Eden so long ago.
