The Sealing of the 144,000, Revelation 7:1-17

The wind upon the earth is stopped, Revelation 7:1

Revelation 7:1

And after these things I discerned four angels, standing upon the four corners of the earth while holding the four winds of the earth in order that wind should not blow upon the earth, neither upon the sea, neither upon any tree.

The 144,000 Jewish Men are Sealed For the Ministry of the Kingdom of the Heavens, Revelation 7:4

Revelation 7:4

And I heard the number of the sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, having been sealed out from every tribe of sons of Israel.

The slain saints - by the Harlot, the False Prophet, and the Idol of the Man of Lawlessness, Revelation 7:14

Revelation 7:14

And I said to him, “My lord, you intuitively know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones having come out from the great tribulation and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb.

The Seventh Seal - Beginning of the Seven Trumpets, Revelation 8:1-2

Revelation 8:1–2

And when He opened the seventh seal, their came to be silence in the heaven as for half an hour. and I discerned the seven angels, the ones standing before the throne, and it was given to them seven trumpets

This Word “Silence” is only used twice in Scripture.

Indicates no one is speaking, Acts 21:40

Acts 21:40 ESV

And when he had given him permission, Paul, standing on the steps, motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great hush, he addressed them in the Hebrew language, saying:

Use a different word for silence which has the meaning of being tranquil or still, not indicating a silence in speech., 1 Timothy 2:11-12

1 Timothy 2:11–12 ESV

Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.

1 Peter uses a word for putting a muzzle on, 1 Peter 2:15

1 Peter 2:15 ESV

For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people.

The Start of the Great Tribulation

The Scroll with the Seven Seals is Flipped Over

It has writing on both sides, Revelation 5:1

Revelation 5:1

And I discerned upon the right hand of the One sitting upon the throne a scroll written on [the] inside and out, having been sealed with seven seals.

The Man of Lawlessness and The Harlot Have Reigned For Three and a Half Years

Many have been slain by the Harlot for religious purposes

We know of three of the daughters of the harlot (Catholicism, Reformed/Covenant, Progressive)

She Reigns from Rome

The Man of Lawlessness Has Been Killed and Brought Back to Life

Israel escapes out into the wilderness by the man of lawlessness and God will protect her there

Now God is going to deal with the Gentiles

The angel casting fire upon the earth, Revelation 8:3-5

Revelation 8:3–5

And another angel came and stood over the alter, having a golden censer and much incense was given to him in order that he should give for the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar, the one before the throne. And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints out from a hand of the angel before the God. And the angel, having taken the censer and filled it out from the fire from the altar and he cast [it] unto the earth and thunders and sounds and lightning came to be and an earthquake.

The seventh trumpet happens at the end of the millennial kingdom

One Third of the Earth is Destroyed by Hail and Fire, Revelation 8:7

Revelation 8:7

And the first sounded and hail and fire came to be, mingled in blood, and it was cast unto the earth and the third of the earth was consumed and the third of the trees was consumed and all green grass was consumed.

One Third of the Sea (Mediterranean) is Turned to Blood, Revelation 8:8-9

Revelation 8:8–9

And the second angel sounded and as a great mountain burning with fire, it was cast into the sea and the third of the sea became blood. And the third of the creatures in the sea died, the ones having a soul, and the third of ships were destroyed.

One Third of the Waters are Turned Poisonous, Revelation 8:10-11

Revelation 8:10–11

And the third angel sounded, and a great star fell out from the heaven burning as a lamp and it fell upon the third of the rivers and upon the springs of the waters. And the name of the star was said, the Wormwood, and it came to be the third of the waters unto poisonous bitterness and many of the humans died out from the waters, because they were bitter.

One Third of the Sun, Moon, and Stars are Struck, Revelation 8:12

Revelation 8:12

And the fourth angel sounded and the third of the sun, and the third of the moon, and the third of the stars was struck, in order that a third of them should be darkened and a third of the day not shine and likewise the night.

In the striking of the sun, the earth is going to be caused to increase in its spin to reduce the day and night by a third.

The Three Woes Are Sounded, Revelation 8:13

Revelation 8:13

And I discerned and heard one of an eagle while flying in [the] midst of heaven, saying with a great voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabitants upon the earth, out from the remaining sounds of the trumpets of the three angels about to sound.”

Satan is Given the Key to The Pit of the Abyss, Revelation 9:1

Revelation 9:1

And the fifth angel sounded, and I discerned a fallen unto the earth star out from the heaven and it was given to him the key to the pit of the abyss.

A star that was in a state of having fallen

He releases his demons upon the earth, Revelation 9:2

Revelation 9:2

And he opened the pit of the abyss and up came smoke out from the pit as smoke of a furnace burning. And the sun and the air were darkened out from the smoke from the pit. And out from the smoke came locusts unto the earth and authority was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have authority.

The pit is within the abyss and is the place where Satan will be bound for a thousand years to its side. Isaiah 14:15; 36:16

The Abyss is the place in Hades where some of the fallen spirit beings that refused to keep their first state are currently kept. Luke 16:23-26.

Some of these angles were the ones attempting to corrupt the seed of mankind before and just after the Noahic flood, Jude 6; Genesis 6:4.

The Others are Those Who Were Cast Out of Heaven With Satan at Mid-Trib

They are only permitted to harm those who do not have the seal of God, Revelation 9:4

Revelation 9:4

And it was said to them in order that they should not do unrighteous harm to the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, except of the existing humans not having the seal of the God upon their foreheads.

And it was given to them in order that they should not kill them, but in order that they should torment five months, and their torment as a torment of a scorpion when it should strike a human.

The afflicting of pain. Used of both physical and emotional pain, Matthew 8:6; 2 Peter 2:8

Timing of this indicated it is five months before the return of Christ to setup His kingdom.

Revelation 9:6

And in those days humans will seek death and they will not find it and they will strongly desire to die and death will flee from them.

Revelation 9:13–14

And the sixth angel sounded and I heard a voice, one out from the four horns on the golden alter before the God, saying to the sixth angel, the one having the trumpet, “Release the four bound angels upon the river of the great Euphrates.”

These Angels will Gather The Arms to the Great Battle of the Lord

They will Deceive the Kings of the Earth To Go to Battle

One Third of Humans on Earth Will Be Killed By Their Armies, Revelation 9:15

Revelation 9:15

And he released the four angels, the ones prepared unto the hour even day even month even year, in order that they should kill a third of humans
