I haven’t found anything that would point to what the seven thunders uttered. It is interesting to note that in Revelation 22:10 it says seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book. I would say that whatever the thunders said, it wouldn’t be considered “sayings of the prophecy”. It could...

Here’s some notes I have on the seven thunders … In Revelation 10:1-2 the mighty angel is on earth when he cries out with the loud voice because he comes down from heaven and has one foot on the sea and the other on earth. After this angel cries, the seven thunders utter their voices. It would...

Thanks for the update on what you’re thinking is on this. You’ve brought up on several posts the point that it’s critical to understand Daniel, and in particular the approach that’s used to interpret Daniel before Revelation can be understood. No doubt Daniel needs to be understood but in...

I think the connection you’re looking for on the 5 months is found in Genesis 7:24. Genesis 7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days. 150 days = five 30 day months. Personally I don’t think there is a connection between the flood and the locusts but if I remember...

The trumpets aren’t specifically called plagues but I think it’s reasonable to conclude they describe various events that closely resemble events that are called plagues elsewhere. I’m trying to explain myself the best I can, I tend to look at interpretations as having a probability of being...

I sure there are quite a few. If the plagues are interpreted as spiritual plagues then we can easily argue that they did spiritually experience the plagues when they added to the book. If the plagues are interpreted as literal and future then those who added to the book are going to have to be...

Let’s say someone added to the book last week and died this week. According the Revelation 22:18 that person will have the plagues written in the book added to them. Revelation 15:8 describes the angels having the seven last plagues which are pour out in Revelation 16 as the bowls of wrath. How...

When looking at the trumpets and bowls, Revelation 22:18 also needs to be considered. Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: If...

Well, I do agree that Jeremiah 31:35-36 is referring to the single seed Christ (Galatians 3:16) but the Jeremiah 31:36 promise was also fulfilled when Christ was forever cast off from God in the sense that He became sin for us. The penalty or wages for sin is death, the second death, which is...

In Isaiah 60:20 the sun and moon are not obeying the decree given in Genesis 1:14. If the decree never vanishes from before God, then we have a new heaven new earth where the created objects are disobedient. What other verses show disobedience in the new heaven new earth?

Can I get your thoughts on Jeremiah 31:35-36? Jeremiah 31:35 Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name: 36 If those...

I think it’s best to start with Revelation 7:1-4 first as it gives a clearer picture of the timeframe that’s in view. 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...

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I would agree with your point that the four beasts are not the four horsemen, although I do think there are some similarities. Perhaps they reflect the same events but from different perspectives. I know you’re not currently looking at the seals but I...

I saw this a few days ago but waited to post to see what others might say on this topic. The amount of information on the four beasts is pretty thin so I don’t think any particular interpretation is going to be easily proven. Here is some of my thoughts on this … The first four seals in...

Mark 4:15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. In Mark 4:13-20 the parable of the sower is explained and in verse 15 “Satan” really has to be interpreted as our...

The nation of Israel. The scribes and Pharisees sat in Moses’ seat and shut up the kingdom of heaven. The heavenly Jerusalem is in the kingdom of heaven and they fought against it. Matthew 23:2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes...

That pronoun could be referring to God except for the fact that verse 14 attributes the gathering to the evil spirits. The unbelieving Jews were in the physical city of Jerusalem, which changed to a Gentile name (Sodom and Egypt). The Lord “defended” New Jerusalem and its occupants by...

Ok, I’ll bring up a solution that makes sense … In Zechariah 14:2 the word “nations” <1471> is the Hebrew word goy. Here is what Biblehub says … Usage: The Hebrew word "goy" primarily refers to a nation or a group of people. In the Old Testament, it is often used to describe non-Israelite...

Ok, then by that same logic we can say that the Lord gathers at the end of the millennium also. In order for that idea to be plausible we would need to see an instance where it can’t be said that the Lord gathers, else it seems to be somewhat random as to who gets the credit for gathering. Do...

In Revelation 16:13-14 it is the unclean spirits that gather to battle. How are you making the connection that it’s the Lord that is gathering here?
