Morning KrissI did a study on this at another site,but I can't get that site while here at work,and my net service is not currently on at home,however I have found a study that mirrors my own,after reading, its my hope that you will see why I don't feel that the 5th trump nor any other has sounded yet.Would greatly appreciate your thoughts.7 Trumps, Seals, Vials Trumps, Seals, and Vials are used as a type of pariable to indicate events that have happened and will happen at the end. Notice that Christ was the only entity worthy to open the Seals. The action of the Trumps were carried out through Angels. Important: Trumps wrath toward one third of the population of men; not the literal land of the earth nor those with the seal of God. The Vials (Prayers of the Saints) with wrath of God were cast to earth causing a disruption that cannot be ignored from its action. God turns his attention to the wrath poured on the earth until his wrath is completed. Trumps = Order of Action Revelation 1 :10. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,Seals = Seal of God / Knowledge revealed by Holy Spirit Vials = Smoke of the Incense / Prayers of the Saints Revelation 5 :8. And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints..Revelation 8 :2. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 3. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 4. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. 5. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. Revelation 15 :5. And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: 6. And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. 7. And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. 8. And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled..Trumps/Seals/Vials 1 through 5 are prophecy. 6th is the five-month Tribulation of Anti-Christ. 7th is the return of Christ and beginning of his 1000 year reign on earth for teaching those souls still liable to die.First Trump: Revelation 8 :6. And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. 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. - First, God's truth is given to the elect. Truth does not harm the elect, however the one third with the deception in their forehead (mind) could not stand against the truth and ALL on earth were affected.First Seal: Revelation 6 :1. And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. - (Knowledge) Thunder is the result of Lightning; opening the seal is action (Lightning) and the result (Thunder) is turning loose the "white horse". The "white horse" is NOT the Lamb NOR the "white horse" in Revelation 19:11; this is a fake imitation of the Lamb (Satan) who is given power to conquer the earth.First Vial: Revelation 16 :1. And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. 2. And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.- (Elect) Truth given to the elect. Those with the "Mark of the Beast" on earth will harm themselves by refusing to accept the truth, prefering to accept its image (one world beast system). Mark of the Beast = Deception in the mind spread over a long period of time. This deception is basically the religions around the world (including some Christians) prepared to accept the first messiah. The first messiah is a fake imitation of the original, but to flesh man it will be very convincing. Pay special attention to the Sixth Trump, Sixth Seal, and Sixth Vial. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Second Trump: 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; 9. 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. - Second, AS IF it were a great mountain (beast system) with fire (fake truth) spread to the sea (those on earth deceived), a third of the people were drained of life. One third of those on earth who had previously accepted Christ at this time follows the deception (mark of the beast) leading to eternal destruction.Second Seal: Revelation 6: 3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. - (Knowledge) Power is given to the red horse (beast system - one world order) through Satan who removes peace, and through deception spreading spiritual death. Satan is given great power through the deception of his beast system.Second Vial: Revelation 16: 3. And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.- (Elect) Remember, the "vial" is the prayers of the saints, and the saints will not pray for their own destruction. The Sea are all those who accept the deception. Like the 2nd Trump, ALL people of earth who willingly accepted the deception (mark of the beast) become spiritually dead. Even those who were alive and at this time accept the mark become spiritually dead. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Trump: 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; 11. 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. - Third, an entity falls from heaven to promote chaos and death AS IF it contained the light of the world. Christ is the living water, but accepting Satans water leads to spiritual death.Third Seal: Revelation 6: 5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. 6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.- (Knowledge) The 3rd beast is the angel with the Seal showing these things to John. The "black horse" is unjust usery through the one world monetary system that has enslaved the earth. At a time when there should be plenty for all, the people of the earth basically work for basic necessities and have nothing left over at the end of the week. After buying groceries and paying bills, how much do you have left over at the end of each week? The "oil" is olive oil symbolic for the blessing of Israel; the "wine" is symbolic for the blood of Christ. So, the oil and wine are those blessed with the knowledge of the true Christ during this time (elect, saints, remnant). Third Vial: Revelation 16: 4. And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 5. And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. 6. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. 7. And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.- (Elect) The angel gave truth to the elect to pour upon the earth. The water of everlasting life is available to all those who will accept the truth, paid for by the blood of the true lamb. The sons of Cain (Kenites) have shed the blood of Abel, prophets, and even Jesus himself (Matt 23:35). The Lord is just and gave his life for those worthy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Forth Trump: 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. 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! - Forth, the sun is symbolic of the light or truth, the moon is symbolic of darkness or deception, and the stars are symbolic of the angels in heaven. A war between good and bad in heaven begins which reduces spiritual interaction between earth and heaven. Woe to the earth, because it is already written that evil will be removed from heaven and thrown to the earth. Forth Seal: Revelation 6: 7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.- (Knowledge) When Satan is removed from heaven, the elect should be aware that he will be allowed to have power over the earth. The "Pale Horse" is the knowledge beforehand of the arrival of Satan with his angels to the earth. Sword is the deception from Satans' tongue. Hunger in the end times is for the word of the Living God. Satan is death, and beasts of the earth are his fallen angels. Forth Vial: Revelation 16: 8. And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.- (Elect) Remember, the Vials are the prayers of the saints. The elect through the Holy Spirit will be given power to withstand Satans’ deception and spread truth, and they will be hated for Christs’ sake. The sun is symbolic of the light or truth. The elect will spread the truth and they will be hated by those who are deceived. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fifth Trump: 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. 2. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 5. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. 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. 7. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. 8. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. 9. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. 10. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. 11. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. 12. One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. - Fifth, Satan (king of the locusts, angel of the bottomless pit, Abaddon, Apollyon) and his angels (the locusts) are literally removed from Heaven. Evil will reign on earth, and spiritual guidance (sun) and life (air) from the Lord will be limited to the elect. God commands Satan and the fallen angels that they can NOT harm the plants NOR those who are his elect. They have five months to reign and deceive those who will follow them. The deceived will prefer death (Satan) at this time, however because they are deceived and know not fully what they do, judgment day will be at a time appointed (or after 1000 year reign of Christ). Fifth Seal: Revelation 6: 9. And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 11. And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.- (Knowledge) The saints who are in heaven at this time are already longing for the end of the tribulation period on earth for justice and for the elects sake. The fellow servants are the two witnesses that must literally be killed and rise within 3.5 days bringing the end of this period.Fifth Vial: Revelation 16: 10. And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 11. And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.- (Elect) The elect rain truth on the seat of the beast in Jerusalem causing anger and resentment to those of the Beast (one world political system). However, deception of the multitude prevails at this time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sixth Trump: Revelation 9: 13. And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14. Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15. 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. 16. And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17. And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18. By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 19. For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. 20. And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 21. Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.Revelation 10:1. And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: 2. And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, 3. And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4. And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 5. And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6. And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: 7. But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. 8. And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. 9. And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. 10. And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter. 11. And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.Revelation 11:1. And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. 2. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. 3. And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7. And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9. And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11. And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14. The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. - Sixth, Satan takes control of Beast and immediately starts short reign on earth (5 month). Months are lunar, or a time of darkness. Army of the Horseman = Locusts = Fallen AngelsThe five month period is the season of the Locusts (May through September). Fire, smoke, and brimstone is the deception preached from the fallen angels leading to eternal death of the soul (hell).The mighty angel of the Lord shines truth (sun) and power (fire). Thunder is produced after the fact, so thunder is the result of previous action(s) which will not be known until the actual event occurs. The little book is truth which when received and understood is sweet, but when spoken and rejected by others is bitter. Though rejected by many, the truth must be spread to the world before the end. (See Ezekiel 3)Two witnesses (two olive trees, two candlesticks, two prophets) spread the truth through the holy spirit 1260 days (3.5 Years = 42 Months: shortened to 5 months Rev.9:5). Like Christ, Satan will have the two witnesses murdered and after 3.5 days they rise to the horror of the deceived. Sixth Seal: Revelation 6:12. And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16. And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17. For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?Revelation 7:1. And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3. Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. 5. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. 9. After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10. And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. 11. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, 12. Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. 13. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? 14. And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. 16. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. 17. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.- (Knowledge) When the two witnesses are killed, the earth will give signs like when Christ was crucified. Stars of heaven are the saints returning with Christ to end the tribulation period of Anti-Christ (Satan). The return of Christ causes the deceived to be ashamed of themselves for following Satan through deception. The deceived want to hide from Christ because they are exceeding ashamed and horrified for what they have done. The four winds are the wrath of God released during the tribulation period. The tribulation period will not begin until the truth (seal of God) is given to the elect. After the tribulation period, ALL (good and bad) will bow to God and acknowledge that he is Lord. Sixth Vial: Revelation 16 : 12. And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. 16. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon..- (Elect) There are four rivers of life flowing from Eden (paradise or heaven) in Gensis 2. The forth river is Euphrates, which is the boundry between the Holy Land and Babylon. With the boundry removed, the good and bad stand toe-to-toe. The boundry was removed so the kings of the earth could be directed by Satans spirits to bring about the end and the return of Christ. Those without truth will not be prepared for the return of the true Christ. Those that are deceived by Satan will be ashamed of themselves on that day. The elect are the blessed watchmen who are prepared for Armageddon. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seventh Trump: Revelation 11: 15. 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. 16. And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, 17. Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. 18. And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. 19. And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.- Seventh, Christ returns as king and removes Satan and his system from power. Gods children rejoice, and Satans children are angered from their removal from power. The earth will be physically transformed. Seventh Seal: Revelation 8: 1. And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. - (Knowledge) There is silence in heaven for a short period because the Father is quickly taking care of business on earth at this time. Though heaven is silent, you can bet there is a lot of activity on earth. Seventh Vial: Revelation 16: 17. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. 18. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. 19. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. 20. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. 21. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.- (Elect) Prayers for return of Christ are answered. Christ returns with Saints to war with Satan and his angels on earth. Earth is physically transformed, and Satans harlot beast system centered in Jerusalum is destroyed. Satans children and their followers are angry for being removed from power by God.Study taken from findthetruth.org
