The seven Trumpets and three woes in Revelation

The next pope

Its been some days now three days now  to be exact we have heard the news of the sudden resignation of pope Benedict XVI.
We have heard in the news that the middle of march is the deadline set to select the new bishop of Rome.That makes it three(3) weeks from now that we will have the leader of both the state the (Vatican) and the Church (Catholicism) will have its king sitting on the throne in the Vatican. It would be prudent to note that Catholic means Universal church keep this in mind.

I have been studying Daniel 11:40-45 for the past four years now and  it has proven truly to line up with the history of 1798 up to this time. Thus far one verse has predicted not almost but dead on all the historical events that tell us we are in the closing moments of earth's history. The reason why i have confidence in one verse ie verse 40 that its accurate is because we have seen the history from Daniel 11:1 yes verse one to 39 as accurate as the sun's position in the sky. Gods word we can trust.
While I am not making any prophetic forecast i have reason to believe that the next Pope could come from the United States of America. I could be wrong. Maybe the pope coming from anywhere in the world will still lead to the things we know concerning America in Revelation 13. However the time is ripe for Pope coming from America because all the entities in bible prophecy are ready to fulfil their roles.
  A complete study on Daniel 11:40-45 could be found  here

The Bible says Dan 11:41  HE shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.

We are going to deal with this one phrase "HE shall enter also into the glorious land"

The two links above tells us who the "HE" in verse 41 is the King Of  The North. We have ascertain from the Bible that the King of the North at the end of the world is the Papacy see the links above.

Now Holy Scripture says He shall enter into the the GLORIOUS LAND in verse 41.



WHERE ON EARTH TODAY IS THE GLORIOUS LAND.

The word for Glory Strong's Hebrew is H6643
צבי
tsebı̂y
tseb-ee'
From H6638 in the sense of prominence; splendor (as conspicuous); also a gazelle (as beautiful): - beautiful (-ty), glorious (-ry), goodly, pleasant, roe (-buck).

Lets look in the bible to see  where we can find in ancient times by its characteristics we can determine the modern Glorious land.

• PLEASANT LANDS .
• GOODLY LANDS.
• PLACES OF PROMINENCE.

HISTORY AND BIBLE PROPHECY TELLS US WHERE THE GLORIOUS LAND WAS

Dan 8:8  Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. (ie East,West, North and South)
Daniel 8:9. And out of one of them (winds) came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward
the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant [land].

The book of Daniel,chapter 2 tells us the kingdoms that would rule the earth until the end of time.
The History goes like this ,Heads of Gold Babylon, Chest and arms of Silver Medio Persia, Belly and thighs of brass Greece, then Legs of Iron Pagan Rome,Then Iron and clay feet of Papal Rome up to the papal removal as a world power in 1798. This was the deadly wound described in Revelation 13 inflicted on the first beast ,the great and terrible beast. The toes in Daniel 2  represent Modern Rome, the system that resembles old ancient Rome (Iron kingdom), but has the influence of a church (Iron mixed with clay kingdom) is where we see the world divided into 10 regions.This is the New World Order according to Bible.

Daniel 11, the chapter that we are now looking over goes through most of that history starting from Grecian Empire under the rule of Alexander the Great.  Daniel 8:8 shows t the Grecian kingdom with the Notable Horn Alexamder himself . Then his kingdom Greece was divided into four (4) warring factions under Alexander's four great Generals historically know as Lysimacous ,Cassander Seleucius and  Ptolemy (P silent), this explanation is given in the follwing verses if you mouse over
(Daniel 8:20, Daniel 8:21,  Daniel 8:22,  Daniel 8:23,  Daniel 8:24).This is how Greece under the Great Alexander's Grecian kingdom came to its end as a ruling kingdom on the earth.


The kingdom that followed is Pagan Rome, the Little horn he magnify its self.
Dan 8:9  And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.
Dan 8:10  And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.
Dan 8:11  Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host.

This is Rome pagan that persecuted the disciples. Saul was the instrument under Rome that persecuted the (stars of heaven the apostles and followers of Christ) Acts7:58 and Act8:1,Acts 8:3, Acts 9:1,Dan 12:3
It was Rome pagan via the Roman Caesars that magnify itself above the Prince of the Host (Christ) to kill him in John 19:10

It was pagan Rome that Waxed Great to south Egypt ,towards the East Syria and towards the place that we have been trying to defined as the PLEASANT LAND Palestine in Judea. Now that we  have the events and individual leading up to this Pleasant land we can be sure of its exactness based on the correct historical walk that we just took.
The scripture and History agree that pagan Rome did conquer these three areas at its ascendancy.

1. Egypt “toward the south”
2. Syria “toward the east”
3. Judea “toward the pleasant land”

Bible foretold this would happen after the Babylonian captivity  that Gods people will settled down in the pleasant land  Judea. Now note the characteristics of the pleasant land,with this information we can see where on the planet is the Modern day PLEASANT LAND.

Jeremiah 3:18, 19
In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north (BABYLON) to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers. But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.

Exodus 6:7, 8.
And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that
I [am] the LORD your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: I [am] the LORD.

Daniel 11:16.
But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.

The Goodly land is where the Children of God were given was a place of rest and peace, It was a place free from the bondage of torment and slavery where they could worship the God of heaven in peace.It was the the pleasant land the Land where all longed for.

• United States America is where most people in the world wanted to migrate to.
• The USA is a nation of immigrants, people love to go to that land for the American Dream.
• It is USA that many  found solace and peace away from the bondage of Kingly rule and Papal persecution.
• It is the USA that many ran to practice free religion under its great constitutional decree,a document that epitomises freedom both civil and religious and justice for all.
• It is in America where the great beacon of protestantism  burns brightest.
• It is in America where all protestant headquaters are based the USA is the citadel for protestantism.
• It is the America that is represented in Bible prophecy as the Earth (land) that swallowed up the flood of persecution that came after the woman (the church) out of the dragons mouth (Satan). 

GOD SHOWS THE END BY SHOWING US THE BEGINNING ISAIAH 46:9,10 

For Papal Rome to ascend the throne of the earth for the deadly wound to be heal it has to conquer three  geographical obstacles. God shows the end by telling us what the beginning was like .In the beginning of  Roman system Pagan Rome overcame three geographical obstacles.
Daniel  Dan 8:9  And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. 
Hysterically and prophetically in the Dan 8:9 Rome took out three obstacles to gain the ascendancy on the earth.
Rome did this twice in past histories also in bible you can prove these times.

1st History: Pagan Rome removed three(3) obstacles

1. Egypt “toward the south”
2. Syria “toward the east”
3. Judea “toward the pleasant land”

2nd History: Papal Rome removed three obstacles Removal of the Arian religions
This time via the help of a STATE power,namely Clovis the king of France who became the sword of the papacy setting him upon the throne of the earth  from 538- 1798=1260 days  of Revelation 12:14, Dan_7:25,Daniel 12:7. incidentally it was France that set the Papacy up and France that took him down

1. Huruli.
2. Ostrgoths.
3. Vandals

The Bible says on the Testimony of two witnesses a thing is established. Deut 19:15 ,Deut 17:6 Gen41:32,Heb 10:28.Thus we can safely use this Bible principle that the 1st and second History gives us details of the 3rd History which is yet future. 

Hence History number 3 tells us about Modern Rome .that is Rome in our day.

Modern Rome Must overcome three(3) obstacles.This information is found as well in Daniel 11:40-45 

1. King of the South ( Atheism) 1989 fall of Communism , via John Paul .Accomplished
2. Glorious Land.(American or Protestantism) headquateredif there is such a word in America (future) 
3. Egypt  finally.   Note Egypt represents the World or worldly in Bible prophecy.

Thus the next victim of the Papacy would be the GLORIOUS LAND where the last bastion of  protestantism is headquarterd.
Most protestant churches have already shown allegiance to Rome and some are even responding to the call to come back home to mother Rome,but to have the Papal Head from America sit on the thrown of the Vatican is a step towards the protestant America being overthrown. The papacy will see it as conquest to have the pontifical General come from the United states.
Revelation 13 shows a lamb like Beast with two horns or two instrument of its power, namely Republicanism and Protestantism. This is Freedom of the Republic without Kingly rule and secondly Freedom of Religion specifically protestantism.

But the bible talks of a beast that gives power to the great and terrible beast in Revelation13 that cause the Great and Terrible Beast wounds to Heal.
How is this done ? By forming an IMAGE TO THE BEAST.  You can only form an image to something by forming a replica of its defining characteristics. The Papacy has always been govern as a church and state power . The Papal Sea is church Craft, the Vatican is its territory and state. The Pope hold reigns of both Priest and King.This was once the case with him being such over the whole world and when this was done the blood of Bible believing Christians flow. Heretics (those who do not acknowledge the doctrines and dictates of Rome were behead, flail,burn at the stake,put in prison and suffer all manure of torture too gruesome to pen.  The Joining of church and State by any country will form the image to the beast.And that second beast in Revelation 13 will be the one to cause the deadly wound of the Great and terrible to heal.

Who is this second BEAST POWER IN REVELATION 17 THAT CAUSES THE DEADLY WOUND OF THE PAPAL RULE TO BE HEALED.

Rev 13:11   another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Rev 13:12  And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

Bible says :Rev_13:14  And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
Rev_13:15  And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

With the lamb like Beast being America,the Pope being American that should make the Dan 11:41 the latter part seamless. The Sunday law a religious law pushed by protestant America under the loving care of an American Pope can certainly move quickly the final events of Earth's history and an image to be the beast is easily formed which will empower once again Papal Rule and Kingly dominion.

Certainly America is speaking like a dragon at this time via its laws and this is what we expect, for a nation speaks via its laws and its ability to CAUSE..as Rev 13:12. All the infrastructure is in place.The laws,Detention centres,taking away of the liberties of the people,even the chief justices are all Catholic except one.
The question is are you ready, have you been cleansed from sin, have you given all to Jesus.The only ONE that can save you or keep you saved is Christ in the heart. No other weapon can prevent the works of Satan to have its way .We know from history when the Papacy sitteth on the throne of the earth persecution starts on Bible believing Christians who will then be named as in the past histories as Heretics.

He will enter into the Glorious Land as Daniel 11:41 says.The "how "is probably what we will see in the next 3 weeks. If the Pope is an American and one American , if he is selected the Papacy can bring down Protestantism easy from that point on. the Seat of Protestant America will easily pay homage to an pope of American origin . Protestant who are not protesting anymore is already stretching its hand across the gulf to clasp hands with the Papacy , A Vatican II influenced protestants will easily give over to the "New Catholic Evangelistic thrust. "All the World will wonder after the Beast ".  We wait and see

Even if the Pope is not an American Bible prophecy remains accurate while details human reasoning remain sketchy.
perfect peace.

911 ,Footage you havn't seen,testimony you have not heard.

 This view was given in 1909 of  Towers in New york
 Ellen White says:
"On one occasion, when in New York City, I was in the night season called upon to behold buildings rising story after story toward heaven. These buildings were warranted to be fireproof, and they were erected to glorify their owners and builders. Higher and still higher these buildings rose, and in them the most costly material was used. Those to whom these buildings belonged were not asking themselves: "How can we best glorify God?" The Lord was not in their thoughts.  {9T 12.1}

The scene that next passed before me was an alarm of fire. Men looked at the lofty and supposedly fire-proof buildings and said: "They are perfectly safe." But these buildings were consumed as if made of pitch. The fire engines could do nothing to stay the destruction. The firemen were unable to operate the engines.  {9T 13.1} 
     I am instructed that when the Lord's time comes, should no change have taken place in the hearts of proud, ambitious human beings, men will find that the hand that had been strong to save will be strong to destroy. No earthly power can stay the hand of God. No material can be used in the erection of buildings that will preserve them from destruction when God's appointed time comes to send retribution on men for their disregard of His law and for their selfish ambition.  {9Testimonies page13.2} 

 But who reads the warnings given by the fast-fulfilling signs of the times? What impression is made upon worldlings? What change is seen in their attitude? No more than was seen in the attitude of the inhabitants of the Noachian world. Absorbed in worldly business and pleasure, the antediluvians "knew not until the Flood came, and took them all away." Matthew 24:39. They had heaven-sent warnings, but they refused to listen. And today the world, utterly regardless of the warning voice of God, is hurrying on to eternal ruin.  
     The world is stirred with the spirit of war. The prophecy of the eleventh chapter of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Soon the scenes of trouble spoken of in the prophecies will take place.
{9Testimonies page14.2}   

911 ..The Judgments have begun in America a warning to the World.

The surety of the sunday Law.

Noah preached for 120 years then the end came.If the messengers of God take their eyes of God,If they do not behold nor discern the tokens of His coming they can get discouraged. More so ,If by chance Seventh Day Adventist reject the advancing light they are sure to be as the disciples on the day of the crucifixion.
The disciples went fishing, for them their hope was lost.They misunderstood the Saviours death,His mission and His message. This left them in a scattered state,spiritually and literally.

With the principles of life,spiritual things and the none changing nature of man and God all things being equal we can expect the same to happen to the spiritual Jews of this time (SDA) .If they disregard,or are indifferent to the truth for the hour, or eat and drink with the drunken and smite the messengers or are not moved by sure Word and the Holy Spirit,they are almost sure to repeat the same history. Another aspect to add to the equation is Lucifer, surely he will not stand idly by but will lead the professed people of God into strong delusion thinking that truth is error and error is truth (Isa 66:1-4, 2Thes 2:10-12). A confused Seventh Day Adventist will receive the mark of the Beast rather than the seal of God.  "For God is not the author of confusion" neither can those "who follow the Lamb" be deceived into doing nothing or fighting the message of the hour.

Ellen White Expressed the experience of the professed people of God beautifully : 

"While I was praying at the family altar, the Holy Ghost fell upon me, and I seemed to be rising higher and higher, far above the dark world. I turned to look for the Advent people in the world, but could not find them, when a voice said to me, "Look again, and look a little higher." At this I raised my eyes, and saw a straight and narrow path, cast up high above the world. On this path the Advent people were traveling to the city, which was at the farther end of the path. They had a bright light set up behind them at the beginning of the path, which an angel told me was the midnight cry. This light shone all along the path and gave light for their feet so that they might not stumble. If they kept their eyes fixed on Jesus, who was just before them, leading them to the city, they were safe. But soon some grew weary, and said the city was a great way off, and they expected to have entered it before. Then Jesus would hem by raising His glorious right arm, and from His arm came a light which waved over the Advent band, and they shouted, "Alleluia!" Others rashly denied the light behind them and said that it was not God that had led them out so far. The light behind them went out, leaving their feet in perfect darkness, and they stumbled and lost sight of the mark and of Jesus, and fell off the path down into the dark and wicked world below. Soon we   heard the voice of God like many waters, which gave us the day and hour of Jesus' coming. The living saints, 144,000 in number, knew and understood the voice, while the wicked thought it was thunder and an earthquake. When God spoke the time, He poured upon us the Holy Ghost, and our faces began to light up and shine with the glory of God, as Moses' did when he came down from Mount Sinai.  
     The 144,000 were all sealed and perfectly united. On their foreheads was written, God, New Jerusalem, and a glorious star containing Jesus' new name.{ Early Writing 15.1}.

           So what about the tokens of His coming for present day Seventh Day Adventist ?
God has always given his people light along the way from the fall of Eden to the slaying of Satan and the Sinful Light was ever present to the people of the earth,the witnessing angels and the inhabitants of the un-fallen worlds.  The testimony of Gods providence His long suffering His mercy and his saving grace are ever before the occupants of the universe.God will be proven true and loving while Lucifer will be proven a the father of lies even from the beginning.

Our tokens of light for this present time could be found in the present truth messages of the hour. She said Ellen white that is in the quotations above from her first vision from Early writings says God send the light in the time of waiting and waning and discouragement : " But soon some grew weary, and said the city was a great way off, and they expected to have entered it before. Then Jesus would hem by raising His glorious right arm, and from His arm came a light which waved over the Advent band, and they shouted, "Alleluia!" 
But not all accept the light. Light is symbolic of sensational truth, righteousness, understanding , increase of knowledge from God. 

• God provided this in the messages He gave to NOAH. Repent, the flood is coming
• God provided this light in the messages given to Moses. Prepare to leave Egypt.
• Elijah was sent with the light choose ye this day whom ye would serve on Mount Carmel.
• Nehemiah was given the message Go up and rebuild Jeruselem.
• Light came when John stood on the Jordan and said bring forth character shown in repentance.
• The Millerites brought the light that showed the beginning of the investigative Judgement.
• God raises up a people do diliver the light bringing to view the events connected with the closing of the investigative Judgement.
•  

What are these events ,what are these tokens of our coming king that was given to Seventh Day Adventism here at the end of the World. 

• Gods people turning away from truth in events that leads up to Ezekiel 8 that leads our people to the back facing the temple and face towards the Sun.
• Events involving the restraining of Islam as the Pioneers of Adventism understood it in the trumpets of Rev 8,9,11.
• Events involving the Wild man of Islam Gen 16:12 His hands being against every man's hand and the whole world against them. see it here
• Events marking the papacy overcoming the 3 obstacles Atheism (Communism) fulfilled 1989 fall of Comunism,The Glorious Land(USA) (in progress),then Egypt (the world) Soon to come via the Sunday laws. Daniel 11:40-42
• Events marking the Papacy controlling the finances of the world that will bring in the problem of buying and selling thus forcing many to take the Mark of the Beast Daniel 11:43.(Economic callaps to move to this new system is inevitable)
• All these above leads up to the Sunday Law. "By His hand " Legislation  see the line upon line studies here
• The plagues fall then.

Then Michael will stand up in Daniel 12:1. Probation close for all on the earth. 
The faithful, those who have little no trust in self.those who are not intoxicated about the self-exaltation,those who have received and survive the ridicule of the

1. Footmen(our people).
2. The horsemen (Apostate protestant).
3. Survive the swelling of the Jordan ( the Papal persecution and Dominion for a time).

These the faithful will survive the overmastering deception of the impersonation of Christ by Lucifer himself. 
While  "Those who have yielded step by step to worldly demands, and conformed to worldly customs, will then yield to the powers that be, rather than subject themselves to derision, insult, threatened imprisonment, and death. At that time the gold will be separated from the dross." . {Prophets and Kings, p. 188}

The light has been given, Tokens of our coming King have been clearly presented but multitudes live as though these things have never been reveal. Some are looking at Pastors to trickle the information down. They expect a Grand announcement to come from General Conference  saying its time to get ready.
Many rely on what others have preached rather than testing things for themselves.Not realising that when the shepherds are smitten the sheep will scatter. Many fail to realise they have to stand the test alone when all earthly support is cut off. And So there preparation is weak . They build on shifting sand instead of the Solid rock.. 
To deny Spirit of Prophecy,to deny the foundations of our faith, to be indifferent to counsel,to neglect the faith once delivered to the saints,to run to Egypt ( the Government) for assistance is to surely build your house on the sand.
When the Storm,tempest,winds and waves of the Sunday law,the persecution,the slaying of the commandment keeping people,the denial of sustenance for rejection of Papal creed,when church gatherings are no more, when Commities and board meetings and budgets cease ,When all these come upon us as an overwhelming surprise will you as an individual stand?
Will the surface reading themes of Sabbath school lessons suffice,will the mothers day and Christmas programs strengthen,will the retreats and fun days and fashion shows sustain, wil the dancing and swaying in the pews encourage ? 

But Will the understanding the times and judgements,understanding the mystery of iniquity (Self exaltation) Isa14, Romans 1:28-32 and experiencing the mystery of Godliness ( Col 1:25-27) the thirst for the Christlike nature before the Sunday Law be your experience. Would understanding the Sure word of Prophecy rather than the darkness and winds of doctrines keep you steady ?

What would be your experience ?
You think about it. its your life !
God has given ample time and ample preparation for those who seek a better place.
God has and is giving the light for this time.
How much longer will He Hold the Winds for His people?
Evidence suggest its not long again.

"We are on the very verge of the time of trouble, and perplexities that are scarcely dreamed of are before us. A power from beneath is leading men to war against Heaven. Human beings have confederated with satanic agencies to make void the law of God. The inhabitants of the world are fast becoming as the inhabitants of the world in Noah's day, who were swept away by the Flood, and as the inhabitants of Sodom, who were consumed by fire from heaven. The powers of Satan are at work to keep minds diverted from eternal realities. The enemy has arranged matters to suit his own purposes. Worldly business, sports, the fashions of the day --these things occupy the minds of men and women. Amusements and unprofitable reading spoil the judgement. In the broad road that leads to eternal ruin there walks a long procession. The world, filled with violence, reveling, and drunkenness, is converting the church. The law of God, the divine standard of righteousness, is declared to be of no effect."  { Testimonies Vol 9 page43.2} 

Perfect Peace and at Such a Time.
Events leading up to the Sunday Law clearly shown here

 

How would the Islamic world react to the death of Osama Binladen

Bin Laden is Dead so they say.. But we can expect a reprisal, vindicating of his death second to none based on Islamic Jihad norm... What does this mean..

Well  The bible says of Islam in Revelation chapter 9:verse 11 : Revelation 9:11 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.
Abaddon and Apollyon means the same thing one is Greek and other in the Hebrew tongue .The two means.Destruction...
Islam believes in this one last final Holy war.The Bible talks about this Last Woe..The woe (the 3rd of its kind as seen in Revelation chapters 9 and 11) is Islam in its Biblical define state.. That is and I quote the bible :

Genesis 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

The Above scripture is the first mention of the  Islam in the entire Holy Scriptures.. This describe the SONS OF ISHMAEL, KNOWN AS THE CHILDREN OF THE EAST. Known spiritually today in our time as Islam. See more a detail study of Islam here.

Islam could be set on fire by these last activities of the west. While cheers on the news and in the streets shows Jubilation of the death of one man. This could be turning point in the world as far as the West vs Islam or Islam vs the West is concern. Burning Islams Holy book excites rage. What about killing one of their internationally known leaders ? What would that do? Think about it.

We wait and watch and see.. But we remember this text: Revelation 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel (3rd WOE which started in 911), when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

THE MYSTERY THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE FINISHED IS Col 1:27 Christ in you.. sanctification completed!
The Angel is still sounding,probation for the church closes first.We still have opportunity to have Christ fully developed in us.
There are many things pointing to the end of the world according to Matthew 24, Luke 21, Mark13.
Revelation and specifically Daniel 11:40-45 tells us of the closing scenes of this earth's history .All these things are occuring at this time as we speak.
God is pleading with sinful man and even gives warning signs.. He does not bring judgements without warnings..
The plea is give your heart to Christ today .Accept him as saviour and Lord of your life.
Repent and be ye converted.
The end is here.

The events connected with the close of probation and the work of preparation for the time of trouble, are clearly presented. But multitudes have no more understanding of these important truths than if they had never been revealed. Satan watches to catch away every impression that would make them wise unto salvation, and the time of trouble will find them unready.
{Great Controversy 594.1}

Genese16: 12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man,

Royalblood : Let me say from the onset you will meet among followers of Islam some of the nicest people in the world. They are the Sons of Ishmael son of Abraham out of the handmaid Hagar ,these are known in the Bible as the children of the East, Spiritualy called Islam . On the other side of the family tree via the wife Sarah is the son Isaac of whom is the descendants of Literal Israel followed by Spiritual Israel called Christians.

So in summary you can say Sons of Ishmael ( Islam) and sons of Issac (Christians) are spiritual brothers. This is still a broad definition Because in Islam there are those who would tell you Not all of Spiritual Islam are of Islam and the same in Christianity. Not all of Spiritual Israel are of Israel.
Note well Islam if given the opportunity will convert by the sword.
But Bible prophecy shows us they were raised up for a purpose not to convert but to conquer Apostate Christendom (Those who have gone against the foundations of true Christianity ,Mother of them all is Papal Rome.


The HOLY Bible says: Genesis 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

This is the sons of Ishmael being referred to here .
Wild man = Wild Arabian Donkey= Sons of Ishmael,Children of the East, Islam are all the same people.

Jeremiah 2:24 A wild ass used to the wilderness, that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.

Royalblood Translation. You need not weary yourself looking for Islam when she is primed and ready to fulfil her Lust/Desire/or her destiny. She will find you. After all according to Gen 16:12 She will dwell in the presence of all her brethren ( every tribe or race or country upon the earth Islam is everywhere this is a biblical prophecy and a fact).

What is the lust of Fundamental Islam? Revelation chapter 9 and chapter 11 describes Islam see the full study here which shows Islam is the final 3 trumpets of the 7 raised up to bring Papal Rome to its knees.True Christians understands the last great Jihads to be the same last 3 woes of Revelation chapter 9 and Revelation chapter 11. study them here as understood by the real people of the BOOK.

But specifically Revelation 9:11 describe her passion ,Her lust.

Revelation 9:11 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.

Abaddon = Destruction in the Hebrew
Apollyon = Destruction in the Greek

He Passion ,Her lust is Destruction. now reread Jeremiah 2:24 now that you understand what Her lust ,her passion is.
Islam will a major player in the end time. The evidence is in the news below.

The planned protest by the 50-member Florida congregation -- who have set up a Facebook page in support of the event bearing the motto "Islam Is Of The Devil" -- triggered a warning from Iran's foreign ministry.

"We advise Western countries to prevent the exploitation of freedom of expression to insult religious sanctities, otherwise the emotions of Muslim nations cannot be controlled," ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast told reporters.

In late August about 100 Indonesian Islamists demonstrated outside the US embassy in Jakarta and threatened "jihad" or holy war if the US Christian group went through with the stunt.

On Tuesday Indonesian Christians said they feared violent reprisals if the burning went ahead.

Indonesian Protestant Christian Churches Union (PGI) has sent a letter to US President Barack Obama asking him to intervene to prevent the book burning, chairman Andreas Yewangoe told AFP.

Better days are not coming.This is the begining of the final crisis

Gods people need to think from Cause to Effect

" There are periods which are turning points in the history of nations and of the church. In the providence of God, when these different crises arrive, the light for that time is given. If it is... received, there is spiritual progress; if it is rejected, spiritual declension and shipwreck follow".
E.G White {{Bible Echo, August 26, 1895 par. 11}


The Last Crisis: "We are living in the time of the end. The fast-fulfilling signs of the times declare that the coming of Christ is near at hand. The days in which we live are solemn and important. The Spirit of God is gradually but surely being withdrawn from the earth. Plagues and judgments are already falling upon the despisers of the grace of God. The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude.
The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.
The condition of things in the world shows that troublous times are right upon us.

The Relevance of Islam the 5th ,6th ,7th trumpets

Islam a blessing to God's Remnant .History prove this.So does the Bible

Triple action in The Bible (1+2=3)

The Bible says on the testimony of two a thing is established.Here is the proof.

Deuteronomy 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.

Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.

Ruth 4:11 And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:

Matthew 18:16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.


2Corinthians 13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

1Timothy 5:19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.

Hebrews 10:28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

Revelation 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

These are but a few statement to prove this fact. Here is the cherry on the cake.
Christ and The father Testify of The spirit. The spirit and Christ testify of the father,The father and the spirit confirms the son.
having said that.We move on to the this principle being applied to Bible prophecy.

It appears that there is a triple action law throughout the Bible.This is where something occurs only three times. If you add the first two histories you get the identical for the 3rd.
This laws involves types of threes .
An easy one is the "THREE ELIJAHs". There are many more in the Bible but i would highlight this one today.

The bible tells us plainly if you read carefully there are three Elijahs
1. Elijah
2. John the Baptist (Elijah 2)
3.The one more described in Malachi 4:5 ( Elijah 3 at the end of the world)

Now end time Bible students have unearth this pattern This technical yet precise patterns with the Elijah.

GOD'S MESSENGER-----CIVIL POWER----HARLOT------FALSE PROPHET

1. Elijah1(translated)-----Ahab------Jezebel------Prophets of Baal

2. John the Baptist(beheaded)----Herod------Herodias-----Salome

3. You and I Hopefully-------Dragon------Beast----False prophet (Rev16:13

Elijah 3 explained :You and me We are hopefully elijah 3, The UN is the civil authority represented as the dragon. sister white says kings and rulers (civil) take on the description as the dragon power.The Papacy the impure woman(harlot of Revelation) and finally the United states(Rev 13:13,14,15) showing false prophet qualities(the capital of protestism).

Notice all the impure women are in an adulterous relationship with the the Civil powers and it is the Elijahs that confronts them that cause the impure woman in all the scenarios to ask for the head of the messenger of God. But the plan is not a straight forward one to kill Gods messengers, Only when a deceptive dance is done the barbaric plan to kill God's messenger is reveal.

Take not the impure woman is always behind the scenes she is never at the confrontation between The Elijahs and the Civil power. But due to the deceptive dance done The heart of the Civil power is always won and the reward for such a dance is the head of Gods prophets.

Will God people be beheaded ? Some of them will be ,not all Read Rev 20:4 and a few verses before .
Will those who are not beheaded those who survive the slaughter of Daniel 11:44 and Revelation 13:15 be the 144,000

Lets continue to look in Gods words for answers He promise to give them before the great and dreadful day Daniel 12:10 ,Daniel 12:4 ..We will understand these things.. The Holy spirit will Guide us to all truth he is doing it now.

This law also applies to the 3 woes in Rev 9 and Rev 11 ( 911) God gave us the facts in long before hand)

I take no credit for this amazing find. see the links
http://theloudcry.wordpress.com
http://theseventhunders.com/

Just found another one..

I heard it in a sermon its a good one ..

Tidings out of the East.There are more details of the tidings out of the east that identifies a particular people. but for now i just want to share the triple action..and this is also prophetic.I will probably post the details another time..

This one involves tiding out of the east that dethrones a kingdom and usher in the beginning of another. This one is also prophetic..


Wise men brought --Tidings out of the east ---troubles Herod. Matthew 2:1-19
Cyrus ----comes from the east--troubles Belshazzar .Daniel 5:1-31
Kings of the east(Rev16:12) brings ---Tidings from east---troubles the king of the North. (Daniel 11:4)

With the Wise men ,Cyrus,Kings of the east they all bring news which is good news but the news troubles the Kings

After Darius the Meade ,The Persia Cyrus ruled, a The Meads and the Persian (Dan 2:31-36,38 conquered Babylon and freed the people of Daniel the same people who broke the covenant made between themselves and God,which resulted in them being slaved to Nebuchadnezzar the grandfather of Belshazzar.

While Belshazzar was indulging in the pleasures of this life ,wine women and song. The writing appeared on the wall from a bloodless hand..We know the story Mene ,mene tekel upharsin Daniel 5:25 which actually means your kingdom has come to and end and divided. Daniel 5:26. That very night Darius' armies did one of the most marvelous military maneuvers by drying up the EUPHRATES that ran through the city river crept under the water barriers and enter into the city while Darius and his people were intoxicated.That very night Belshazzar was killed and Babylon fell.
Here is evidence of the prophetical parallel in Rev16:12.
Now : ..Before the cross all Prophetic utterances were literal example Numbers 24:17 talking about Christ coming( a star he calls it)..After the cross all prophetic utterances will come trough (2Peter 1:19 ), but in a spiritual sense.

We know that waters and rivers represent people you can verify the long way here and here and here or the short route here :Rev17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

So in Revelation where it talks about the Euphrates being dried up we know its Spiritual Euphrates ,spiritual water,we know its the representation of water that is being dried up. This is the people being dried up.. Wait a min are you saying that people will literally dry up ..No .Am saying that people will spiritually be dried up from the Beast(The King of the North,The papacy).
How can a people be dried up..
Listen to this ..The Aids epidemic is drying up the people of Africa what does that mean ..Its destroying the Human resources.The potential.. of the people.

So in this sense in Rev its talking about the Euphrates drying up meaning all earthly support of people will be remove from Babylon(The Papacy)

So in this triple action it is clearly seen that when you add the histories of

1. Tidings in the first history from the men from the east
2. Tidings from the blood less hands to Darius & Cyrus coming who was from the east.
3. You get history of the kings who are not literal kings but a people who will deliver a message so potent in righteousness it will bring down Babylons support symbolized as Euphrates or waters.. God foretold the fall of Modern end time Babylon in Daniel 11:44 and Revelation 16:12.

The details of the two histories when you add them gives you the end time details already told to us in Daniel and Revelation.

The secret things of the Lord (Revealed since 1909)

Amos 3:7
Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

The secret things are the prophecies. These are the events that are soon to come upon this earth.
Written in 1909, The book, Testimony to the church Vol 9 starting on page 11 ( i hope you see it 911)

The Last Crisis

We are living in the time of the end. The fast-fulfilling signs of the times declare that the coming of Christ is near at hand. The days in which we live are solemn and important. The Spirit of God is gradually but surely being withdrawn from the earth. Plagues and judgments are already falling upon the despisers of the grace of God. The calamities by land and sea, the unsettled state of society, the alarms of war, are portentous. They forecast approaching events of the greatest magnitude.The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.
Increasing degradation in Moral Standards
The condition of things in the world shows that troublous times are right upon us. The daily papers are full of indications of a terrible conflict in the near future. Bold robberies are of frequent occurrence. Strikes are common. Thefts and murders are committed on every hand. Men possessed of demons are taking the lives of men, women, and little children. Men have become infatuated with vice, and every species of evil prevails.
"Justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter." Isaiah 59:14. In the great cities there are multitudes living in poverty and wretchedness, well-nigh destitute of food, shelter, and clothing; while in the same cities are those who have more than heart could wish, who live luxuriously, spending their money on richly furnished houses, on personal adornment, or worse still, upon the gratification of sensual appetites, upon liquor, tobacco, and other things that destroy the powers of the brain, unbalance the mind, and debase the soul. The cries of starving humanity are coming up before God, while by every species of oppression and extortion men are piling up colossal fortunes.
Foreseen Disaster in New York
On one occasion, when in New York City, I was in the night season called upon to behold buildings rising story after story toward heaven. These buildings were warranted to be fireproof, and they were erected to glorify the owners and builders. Higher and still higher these buildings rose, and in them the most costly material was used. Those to whom these buildings belonged were not asking themselves: "How can we best glorify God?" The Lord was not in their thoughts.

page 12

Then she sees scenes of Financial Crisis.
I thought: "Oh, that those who are thus investing their means could see their course as God sees it! They are piling up magnificent buildings, but how foolish in the sight of the Ruler of the universe is their planning and devising. They are not studying with all the powers of heart and mind how they may glorify God. They have lost sight of this, the first duty of man."

As these lofty buildings went up, the owners rejoiced with ambitious pride that they had money to use in gratifying self and provoking the envy of their neighbors. Much of the money that they thus invested had been obtained through exaction, through grinding down the poor. They forgot that in heaven an account of every business transaction is kept; every unjust deal, every fraudulent act, is there recorded. The time is coming when in their fraud and insolence men will reach a point that the Lord will not permit them to pass, and they will learn that there is a limit to the forbearance of Jehovah.

Disaster in New York detailed(911)

The scene that next passed before me was an alarm of fire. Men looked at the lofty and supposedly fire-proof buildings and said: "They are perfectly safe." But these buildings were consumed as if made of pitch. The fire engines could do nothing to stay the destruction. The firemen were unable to operate the engines.

Judgments to fall due to culmination of sins.

I am instructed that when the Lord's time comes, should no change have taken place in the hearts of proud, ambitious human beings, men will find that the hand that had been strong to save will be strong to destroy. No earthly power can stay the hand of God. No material can be used in the erection of buildings that will preserve them from destruction when God's appointed time comes to send retribution on men for their disregard of His law and for their selfish ambition.

World problems baffle Leading men

There are not many, even among educators and statesmen, who comprehend the causes that underlie the present state of society. Those who hold the reins of government are not able to solve the problem of moral corruption, poverty, pauperism, and increasing crime. They are struggling in vain to place business operations on a more secure basis. If men would give more heed to the teaching of God's word, they would find a solution of the problems that perplex them.

Financial Crisis Just before the time of trouble and the end

The Scriptures describe the condition of the world just before Christ's second coming. Of the men who by robbery and extortion are amassing great riches, it is written: "Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you." James 5:3-6.

The things of the World Distract many.

But who reads the warnings given by the fast-fulfilling signs of the times? What impression is made upon worldlings? What change is seen in their attitude? No more than was seen in the attitude of the inhabitants of the Noachian world. Absorbed in worldly business and pleasure, the antediluvians "knew not until the Flood came, and took them all away." Matthew 24:39. They had heaven-sent warnings, but they refused to listen. And today the world, utterly regardless of the warning voice of God, is hurrying on to eternal ruin.

Daniel 11:40-45 happening as we speak.

The world is stirred with the spirit of war. The prophecy of the eleventh chapter of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Soon the scenes of trouble spoken of in the prophecies will take place.

Destabalised world soon follows

"Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. . . . Because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate. . . . The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth." Isaiah 24:1-8.

"Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come. . . . The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down, for the corn is withered. How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate." "The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men." Joel 1:15-18, 12.

911 was a marker in time see the details of the 911 the beginning of the end times.

Understanding the seven trumpets (Revelation 8 and 9)

We are going to have a look at the Trumpets of Revelation 8 and 9. Before we deal with the chapters in Revelation, we want to see what the Bible connects with an understanding of the trumpets. We are going to go through each of these Bible passages and see what trumpets are connected with:

Assembly and Alarm: Numbers 10:1–10—

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
5 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
6 When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations.
9 And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God.
The first things we want to see is that the Trumpets are connected with an assembly and an alarm; the calling of a sacred assembly and an alarm.
Holy Convocation: Leviticus 23:24–25—
24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
25 Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
So first the Trumpets are connected with the calling of a sacred assembly; the calling of an alarm; and now calling a holy convocation.
Deliverance: Leviticus 25:9–13—
9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
2
11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.
12 For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.
13 In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.
So the blowing of the trumpet was a sign of deliverance. So the Trumpets are connected with the calling of a sacred assembly; an alarm; and a holy convocation, and here, deliverance.
One of the things we read in Leviticus was that when a trumpet was blown, the people were to make an offering by fire unto the Lord. Now when you think of making an offering by fire unto the Lord, that sacrifice consumes—it does not increase—does it? We are going to see something very clearly; we believe that we are in the time of the Third Woe. We believe that we are really in the time of the Seventh Trumpet. We believe that the Millerite History is being repeated to the very letter. We are in the time when we should be making a sacrifice unto the Lord, not increasing, but consuming our goods for the work—Amen?

A Day of Wrath and Distress: Zephaniah 1:14–18

1:14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.
Brethren, the Trumpet is connected with the day of wrath and distress; troubling of the nations. Now with this background, let’s build on the Trumpets. Now there is one more thing that we need to understand that is connected to the Trumpets and we’ll take this from William Miller. Trumpets also represent the downfall of an Empire, the bringing the end of an Empire.

The Downfall of an Empire

“In prophetical scripture, the sounding of trumpets is always used to denote the downfall of some empire, nation, or place, or some dreadful battle, which may decide the fate of empires, nations, or places. . . .
“The last three trumpets will claim our attention in his discourse; the first four having their accomplishment under Rome Pagan; to the last three under Rome Papal. These three trumpets and three woes are a description of the judgments that God has sent and will send on this Papal beast, the abomination of the whole earth.” William
Miller’s Works, volume 2, page 115–116.

The blowing of the trumpets represents the downfall of an Empire. Now in the book of Revelation chapter 8, we are going to look at the Pioneer position of the Trumpets as found on the bottom right hand corner of the 1843 and 1850 chart, representing the First, Second and Third Woes. We can’t have the Third woe without the Second, or the Second without the First and you can’t have those Trumpets without the first four. We are going to look at the Pioneer position in the Bible and in History and walk through the history of these trumpets.
3
One thing about the Trumpets for those who have never studied the Trumpets, as we read through the Trumpets themselves, there is always reference to a third of men, or a third part of something being hurt or destroyed. We need to have an understanding why the Bible is saying that. We also need to understand that Revelation 8 and 9 goes together with Daniel 2 and 7.
We know in Daniel 2, Pagan Rome is represented by the legs of Iron and Pagan Rome split into East and West. In Daniel 7, we know that the Ten Horns on Pagan Rome’s Beast represents how Pagan Rome split into Ten. How did that happen? Why did Pagan Rome split into East and West? Why did it disintegrate into Ten? This is the Story of the Trumpets.
We know that in the year 330 AD, Constantine moved from the city of Rome to Constantinople —so dividing the Empire into East and West. The reason that Constantine split the Empire into Two was because there were attacks from the Barbarians and he thought that by splitting the Empire into two it would strengthen the Kingdom, but it brought its demise.
Also Pagan Rome not only split into East and West, but it also split into three.
“The Roman Empire, after Constantine, was divided into three parts; and hence the frequent remark, "a third part of men," etc., in allusion to the third part of the empire which was under the scourge. This division of the Roman kingdom was made at the death of Constantine, among his three sons, Constantius, Constantine II, and Constans. Constantius possessed the East, and fixed his residence at Constantinople, the metropolis of the empire. Constantine the Second held Britain, Gaul, and Spain. Constans held Illyricum, Africa, and Italy.” Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 479.
So his three sons received part of the Empire two of his sons had parts of the West and one had the part of the East. So as we go through the Bible it says a third part was destroyed, it is referring to either a part of the West or a part of the East.
So let’s go through the Bible and turn to Revelation 8:6, 7; “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.”
We need to understand the first four Trumpets bring the demise of the Western Pagan Roman Empire. The first was Alaric of the Goths.

The First Trumpet—Goths
Alaric—395
“The first sore and heavy judgment which fell on Western Rome in its downward course, was the war with the Goths under Alaric, who opened the way for later inroads. The death of Theodosius, the Roman emperor, occurred in January, 395, and before the end of the winter the Goths under Alaric were in arms against the empire.” Uriah Smith, Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 478.
Historically, Alaric was the first of the trumpets the Lord used to bring down the Western Roman Empire. One thing to note here is the Bible says that under Alaric, the Earth was smitten.
Under the Second Trumpet we have Genseric; Revelation 8:8, 9: “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.”
The Bible denotes that this Trumpet is represented as a great mountain burning with fire. The First Trumpet, Alaric, was as hail mingled with blood and the hail denoted where he came from; he came from the North, the cold regions; whereas the Second Trumpet, which are the Vandals under Genseric, came from Northern Africa, a hot region—a mountain burning with fire.
4
We have a quotation here from Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation which gives you the Pioneer understanding of the history behind this Trumpet.

The Second Trumpet—Vandals
Genseric—428–468
“If the sounding of the first four trumpets relates to four remarkable events which contributed to the downfall of the Roman Empire, and the first trumpet refers to the ravages of the Goths under Alaric, in this we naturally look for the next succeeding act of invasion which shook the Roman power and conduced to its fall. The next great invasion was that of ‘the terrible Genseric,’ at the head of the Vandals. His career occurred during the years A.D. 428–468.” Uriah Smith, Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 481.
So Alaric, the First Trumpet came from the North the cold region and was represented as hail. That was in the year 395. The Second Trumpet was Genseric and the Vandals and they came from Northern Africa, a hot region; hence, a great mountain burning with fire. The mode of warfare of the Vandals was they battled on the sea—there were naval battles that took place and so the text says the third part of the sea was smitten.
Continuing in Revelation 8:10, 11: 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.”
Historically the Third Trumpet was Attila and he brought with him the Huns. Attila the Hun was the Third Trumpet and the Bible says that he came from the fountains of waters—the fresh water. The First Trumpet destroyed the Earth—the Earth was smitten; the Second destroyed the Sea—the Sea is smitten; the Third Trumpet—the Fresh Waters, the fountains of waters. Attila comes from the Alps and attacked. Alaric came from the cold regions of the North; Genseric, the hot regions of North Africa, and Attila from the springs and fountains of waters—from the Alps.
The Earth smitten; the Sea smitten; then the Fresh waters were smitten. One thing about the Third trumpet is that Attila is called Wormwood—now what is Wormwood? It is a bitter herb. Why was Attila called Wormwood? Why were Attila’s actions more bitter than Alaric or Genseric? It wasn’t just warfare that Attila brought; he subjugated the government of Rome. Notice this statement from the Seer of Patmos by Haskell, pg. 155:
"The third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp." For nearly one hundred years previous to the final downfall of Rome, the Huns, one of the wildest of the Scythian tribes, had pressed upon the empire, spreading themselves from the Volga to the Danube. For a time they commanded the alternative of peace or war, with both the eastern and western divisions of the empire. In the days of AETIUS, a general of the West, sixty thousand Huns marched to the confines of Italy; but retreated when paid the sum which they cared to demand. Theodosius, the emperor of the East, bought peace by paying an annual tribute of three hundred and fifty pounds of gold, and bestowing the title of general upon the king of the Huns. There was still a senate at Rome, and it purchased peace of the Huns. This was a part of the "wormwood" which Rome was caused to drink. In 433 Attila and his brother became joint rulers of the barbarians, and in a treaty with the emperor, the Huns "dictated the conditions of peace; each condition was an insult on the majesty of the empire. Besides the freedom of a safe and plentiful market on the banks of the Danube, they required that the annual contribution should be augmented from three hundred and fifty pounds of gold to seven hundred pounds of gold; that a fine, or ransom, of eight pieces of gold should be paid for every Roman captive who had escaped from his
5
barbarian master; that the emperor should renounce all treaties and engagements with the enemies of the Huns; and that all the fugitives who had taken refuge in the court, or provinces of Theodosius, should be delivered to the justice of their offended sovereign." Thus was the Roman Empire made to realize that its power was gone, and that the proud Romans were subject to the most cruel of all barbarians. This was "wormwood” indeed.” p. 155.
When we look at what Attila did, not only was he a terrible Barbarian, not only did he kill and destroy, but he put Rome under subjugation. This was Wormwood—Rome had to drink the bitter cup.

The Third Trumpet—Huns
Attila—429–451
“It is here premised that this trumpet has allusion to the desolating wars and furious invasions of Attila against the Roman power, which he carried on at the head of his hordes of Huns.” Uriah Smith, Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 486.
So the Earth was smitten, the Sea was smitten, the Fresh Waters were smitten, so what else was left? The Air was left. Notice what the Bible says in 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.”
The Bible shows very clear that they destroyed the Earth, they destroyed the Sea, destroyed the Fresh Waters and now the Heavens are smitten—that’s complete destruction. Western Rome was brought to its end and the Fourth Trumpet is Odoacer.

The Fourth Trumpet—Heruli
Odoacer—476
We understand that this trumpet symbolizes the career of Odoacer, the barbarian monarch who was so intimately connected with the downfall of Western Rome. The symbols sun, moon, and stars—for they are undoubtedly here used as symbols—evidently denote the great luminaries of the Roman government,—its emperors, senators, and consuls. Bishop Newton remarks that the last emperor of Western Rome was Romulus, who in derision was called Augustulus, or the ‘diminutive Augustus.’ Western Rome fell A.D. 476.” Uriah Smith, Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 488.
In 476 Odoacer sat upon the Emperor’s throne and the barbarians took control of Western Rome. In the year 476 Western Rome was destroyed, divided and split into the Ten Horns. When you look at Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation by Uriah Smith it gives you the understanding of what the Sun, Moon and Stars represented. It represented the Roman government, its Emperors, senators and consuls.
So the total government of Rome was not only subjugated as in the days of Attila, but brought to an end by Odoacer and divided into ten powers.
Out of those Ten Horns in Daniel 7, three were to be uprooted and the Little Horn was to arise. So when the Pagan Western Roman Empire disintegrated and split into ten, three horns were uprooted and the Papacy rises. So now we have the Papacy on the West but still Pagan Rome on the East. The first four Trumpets bring down Western Pagan Rome and we’ll see how the Fifth and Sixth Trumpets bring down Eastern Rome and the Papacy in the West.
Again we are just focusing on the History of the Trumpets. This history is something that is being denied as we speak today; our church today does not believe in the historical teachings of the Trumpets. That is a sad thing because that is the very foundation of Adventism.

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!”
In chapter 9 we go into the Woes:
“For an exposition of this trumpet, we shall again draw from the writings of Mr. Keith. This writer truthfully says: ‘There is scarcely so uniform an agreement among interpreters concerning any other part of the Apocalypse as respecting the application of the fifth and sixth trumpets, or the first and second woes, to the Saracens and Turks.’ It is so obvious that it can scarcely be misunderstood. Instead of a verse or two designating each, the whole of the ninth chapter of the Revelation in equal portions, is occupied with a description of both.” Uriah Smith, Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation, 488.
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.”
Now notice this:
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.”
Again remember the constant reference that these trumpets are represented as horses prepared for battle—war horses—angry horses.
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.”
There is much history in these Woes, let’s start with verse 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.”

The Fifth Trumpet—Saracens
The First Woe: Arabic Islam
Mohammed—628: the battle of Nineveh
The pioneers correctly understood that the first Woe is Arabic Islam. And the Star who fell from heaven and was represented as the ‘he’ who received the Key of the Bottomless Pit, was Mohamed.
The ‘Key’ of the Bottomless Pit was the Battle of Nineveh in the year 628. It was a battle between the East and the West; a battle between Rome and Persia. Rome and Persia were both too powerful for the Mohametans to overcome. Without getting into too much detail in the story of this battle, Mohamed waited until there was a war between Rome and Persia.
Rome made the very perilous journey, after being subjugated by Persia. It agreed to the demands of Persia in order to buy time. So Rome bought time and took this very perilous journey around the
7
Black Sea into the very back-yard of Persia and struck. The Persian army was destroyed, but it didn’t help Rome, because the Roman army was so depleted that this was the ‘key’—the battle that unlocked Mohametism upon the earth. Rome’s armies were destroyed; Persia’s armies were destroyed; nothing was in the way now of Islam—this was the ‘Key’, the Battle of Nineveh.
This was a battle of the East against the West; remember to mark that point.
The Bible says in Revelation 9:2 that “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.”
The Pioneers understood correctly this smoke to be the religion of Islam. It covered the air and the sun—a representation of the Holy Spirit and of Christ—the true Gospel. So it eclipsed the sun and the air by reason of the smoke. The Bible tells us this Saracen or Islamic army was given the power to hurt for five month, which in Bible prophecy comes to 150 years.
This began on July 27, 1299 from the time that the Bible tells us they ‘had a king over them’.
Othman—July 27, 1299: invasion of Nicomedia
As you move through the first 12 verses of Revelation 9 you have the time of Mohamed; Mohamed dies and Abu Becker takes over. He was the one who gave the command found in verse 4, He told his armies to go and destroy those with shaven heads but to leave alone the ones who kept to themselves in the valleys and rocks and those were the Waldenses, the Sabbath keepers, since they had the Seal of God.
So it moves from Mohamed, to Abu Becker, and then to Othman, Commencing July 27, 1299, the one hundred and fifty years reach to 1449. During that whole period the Turks were engaged in an almost perpetual warfare with the Greek empire, but yet without conquering it. They seized upon and held several of the Greek provinces, but still Greek independence was maintained in Constantinople. But in 1449, the termination of the one hundred and fifty years, a change came, the history of which will be found under the succeeding trumpet.
Under the First Woe they were given power to hurt the Eastern Roman Empire; they were restrained—they could go so far but no further. Then we come to the Second Woe, the Sixth Trumpet.
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.”
The Fifth Trumpet—Saracens; The First Woe: Arabic Islam
They are given a Time Prophecy of 150 years beginning with Othman—July 27, 1299: invasion of Nicomedia, which brings us to July 27, 1449.
We move onto the Sixth Trumpet, the Second Woe and it is still Islam, but now it is the Ottoman Empire—Turkish Islam. Islam is still the Woe power. It began its Time Prophecy of 391
8
years and 15 days—in verse 15—and hour; a day; a month and a year, but this time they are loosed. They are restrained for the hundred and fifty years when they were only given power to hurt, but now they are loosed and given power to kill and to slay the third part of men. This time extends from July 27 1449 until August 11, 1840.
The four ‘angels’ which were loosed were the four principle sultans of Turkish Islam situated at Aleppo, Iconium, Damascus, and Bagdad. Islam was loose on the earth and they were given power to kill and under the Second Woe, Constantinople in the East comes down.
In verse 18 we see the way it came down; 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.” The fire, smoke and brimstone constitute gunpowder and they used explosives to bring down Constantinople, which in 1453 comes to an end.
But the sixth trumpet is not finished; the East has been taken care of but we have the power which arose in the West—the Papacy. The Papacy needs to be dealt with.
Revelation 9:21 “Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.” This brings us to the end of the 391 years and 15 days and picks up the story in 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:”
This was the empowerment of the message of the Millerites on August 11, 1840. The Angel that came down with the ‘Little Book’ of Daniel open in His hand was Jesus Christ. This history of Revelation 10, the Seven Thunders, we have seen repeats to the very letter but still there is no reference to the end of the Sixth Trumpet.
As you go into Chapter 11 we see the history of the French Revolution and it is out of this history that we see the Little Horn power of Daniel 8 is brought down with the deadly wound. This is still under the time of the Sixth Trumpet.

The Sixth Trumpet—Turks & France
The Second Woe: Islam & Atheism
Napoleon—1798
In verse 14 of Revelation 11 we have the end of the Second Woe. “The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.”
So the Fifth Trumpet that brings the First Woe is Arabic Islam. It’s given power to hurt.
The Sixth Trumpet, the Second Woe brings the power to kill and slay the third part of men. This was not only Turkish Islam but this was Atheism as well. The time period was July 27, 1449-August 11, 1840. The power of Atheism brought down the Little Horn on the West.
Bible Prophecy tells us that this Little Horn power would have a resurrection; hence God reserves one more Trumpet, the Seventh Trumpet.
One thing we want to identify is that the Woes play a triple application in Bible Prophecy. In the Woes, the Fifth and Sixth Trumpets there are two lines represented there, two prophetic teachings. Notice Revelation 9:4: “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.”
In the First Woe, the Fifth Trumpet, there is a sealing time that is represented there.
Then we stop in Revelation 10 and this is something we have to understand about the Trumpets and this is something that some of the pioneers understood and that was a principle brought to view in chapter 8:13. “And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud
9
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!”
So the last three Trumpets, the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Trumpets, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd
When we come to chapter 10, there was an understanding of the Millerites that when we come to August 11, 1840, the Sixth Trumpet ceased. But we have a prophetic understanding that they did not have. There is a history of 1840-1844 that must repeat. If we don’t have the history of 1840-1844 within the Sixth Trumpet, that history will not repeat under the time period of the seventh Trumpet. The Sixth Trumpet continued to sound, but the Woe ceased August 11, 1840. Woe, by reason of their sounding they bring with them the Woe—it’s a cause and effect. The Trumpet sounds and then a Woe comes; in a sense it is making a break between the Trumpets and the Woes even though they are connected. The Trumpet sounds, the Woe comes by reason of the sounding of the Trumpet.
We want to notice this excerpt from the vision of William Foy:

EXCERPT FROM WILLIAM FOY’S SECOND VISION ON FEBRUARY 4, 1842

“Near the place through which we passed I beheld a mighty angel clothed in pure white raiment, having a crown of brightness on his head. He appeared to be gazing through the bar, and his eyes like lamps of fire, were fixed with steadfastness upon the earth. He stood with his right foot placed before him, as though walking; and his object appeared to be, to reach the earth. But three steps remained for him to take. Against his breast, and across his left hand, was as it were, a trumpet of pure silver; and a great and terrible voice came from the midst of the boundless place, saying, ‘The sixth angel hath not yet done sounding.’”
The Sixth angel had not finished sounding and it was the understanding that on August 11, 1840 the Sixth Angel was done, but the vision from heaven said the Sixth angel had not yet finished sounding. The Sixth Trumpet ceased when the Seventh Trumpet began on October 22, 1844.
The history from August 11, 1840-October 22, 1844, it was that particular piece of history that the pioneers did not understand, and included there prophetically was the Seven Thunders and it was sealed to them—they had no understanding of what was transpiring there because they were living it as it was going forward in time.
This crucial piece of history we’ve seen represented by the foundations of many generations, the great prophetic movements of prophecy, this was a Sealing Time.

A Sealing Time—1840 through 1844

It was based upon the increase of light that came to them. It was a sealing time and the wise virgins and the foolish virgins were being sealed. Either they were sealed in Christ or sealed out of Christ. This was under the Sixth Trumpet.
So under the Fifth Trumpet you have a sealing time represented; under the Sixth Trumpet you have a sealing time represented; therefore when we do the Triple Application of Prophecy—and to make it simple think of it this way, 1+2=3—the first history plus the second history equals the third history.
There’s a sealing time in the First Woe; there’s a sealing time in the Second Woe; so there is a sealing time in the Third Woe.

The Empowerment of the Message of the Hour

“The termination of the hour, day, month and year of the sixth angel marks the conclusion of the second woe, August 11, 1840. Revelation 9:15.
(We know that on August 11, 1840, the message of the Millerites, the movement was empowered. It was a message from the Woes that empowered the movement.)
“At the close of the sixth angel’s voice a mighty angel descends from heaven to herald the sounding of the seventh trumpet. He has a little book open in his hand; and he places his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, and cries with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth. The seven
10
thunders utter their voices, but John is forbidden to write what they utter. The angel, having made proclamation to the inhabitants of the earth, lifts his hand to heaven, and swears that time shall be no longer, but that in the days of the beginning of the seventh angel’s voice the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. Revelation10:1–7. J. N. Andrews, The Judgment, its Events and Their Order, 56.

WOE MESSAGE EMPOWERS THE MILLERITES

“In the year 1840 another remarkable fulfillment of prophecy excited widespread interest. Two years before, Josiah Litch, one of the leading ministers preaching the second advent, published an exposition of Revelation 9, predicting the fall of the Ottoman Empire. . . .
“At the very time specified, Turkey, through her ambassadors, accepted the protection of the allied powers of Europe, and thus placed herself under the control of Christian nations. The event exactly fulfilled the prediction. When it became known, multitudes were convinced of the correctness of the principles of prophetic interpretation adopted by Miller and his associates, and a wonderful impetus was given to the advent movement. Men of learning and position united with Miller, both in preaching and in publishing his views, and from 1840 to 1844 the work rapidly extended.” The Great Controversy, 332–335.
So the Advent Movement was empowered by the message from the Woes. So under a triple application of prophecy, when the Third Woe time period we should see an empowerment of the movement based on an understanding of the Woes. There is a sealing time represented and an empowerment represented.

To the Very Letter
“I am often referred to the parable of the ten virgins, five of whom were wise, and five foolish. This parable has been and will be fulfilled to the very letter.” Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.
This history—fulfilled to the very letter. If there was a sealing, and empowerment at that time, it will be repeated to the very letter in our day.
That process began in September 11, 2001.
Now we will go through the Triple Application of Prophecy; remember that the history of the first, plus the history of the second, equals the history of the third.
Interestingly enough, Islam has an understanding of the Woes, but they call them the Great Jihads. They have the First Jihad, the Second Jihad, and the Third, and the Third Jihad is the final war in their understanding. The First Jihad was the same time as the first Biblical Woe.
The First Woe: First Great Jihad
Islam: Arabia—Mohamed
THE KEY: Empowered after war between East and West: Daniel 11:40. (This was repeated in our day as the war between East and West—USSR and the USA and that was the KEY that unlocked Islam, and in 2001 Islam struck.)
Mode of warfare: strike suddenly and unexpectedly
Focus of warfare: the armies of Rome
Directed by their tails:
The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. Isaiah 9:15. Islam is directed by their false prophets, their Imams, the ones who give the teachings of Islam.
Providential force that tormented (HURTS) the armies of Rome
The Fifth Trumpet: Hurt not those who have the seal of God. We see a sealing time represented.
This is the First Woe—the First Great Jihad.
11
History
From Mohamed to July 27, 1299 and then until July 27, 1449
The Second Woe: Second Great Jihad
Islam: Turkey—Othman
Mode of warfare: strike suddenly and unexpectedly with explosives. Gunpowder is invented and they use explosives to bring down the armies they are fighting.
Focus of warfare: the armies of Rome
Directed by their heads and tails:
The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. Isaiah 9:15.
Providential force that brought down (KILLS) Imperial (pagan) Rome. First they hurt the armies of Rome, then the restraint was let loose and they were given power to kill.
The Sixth Trumpet: 1840 through 1844. This was a sealing time again.
History
From July 27, 1449 until August 11, 1840 and then through October 22, 1844
The First History plus the Second History equals the Third History.

The Third Woe: Third Great Jihad

September 11, 2001, whether we want to understand that or not, Islam understands it and on that date began the Third and Final Jihad. Read more about the third great Jihad from independent source here
Islam: Worldwide—Bin Laden
Mode of warfare: strike suddenly and unexpectedly with explosives
Focus of warfare: the armies of Rome. The United States of America—who came together with the Harlot Woman to bring down the USSR by means of our horses and chariots—our military, and our economic strength and thus it took the role of the armies of Rome.
Directed by their heads and tails
Providential force that torments (FIRST HURTS) the army of Rome and then brings down (KILLS) modern Rome: the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.
The Seventh Trumpet; The Investigative Judgment

History
From October 22, 1844 until September 11, 2001 until Michael stands up
Revelation 13:11 “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.”
Who is this beast? It is United States of America. When it rose to power in its infancy, those two powers represented its two powers of church and state being separate, Republicanism and Protestantism. But when it begins to speak as a Dragon, those powers change to military might and economic power.
Revelation 13:15 “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Military Power—Force.
16 “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Economic Power.
Military and economic power. And it just so happens that on September 11, 2001, the economic power was hit—the World Trade Center; and the military power of United States was struck—the
12
Pentagon. Why didn’t the third plane hit? It would have destroyed the pattern. God is the One Who is orchestrating events.
We have read the statement that the Holy Spirit is not only involved in the giving of the prophecy but in the events portrayed. God is at work, but Adventism continues to sleep on.
On September 11, 2001 the Third Woe begins, the Third Great Jihad. First they were given power to hurt. On September 11, 2001 the world was hurt, the United States was hurt. But when God lets them do what they are supposed to do prophetically, not only will they hurt, but they will slay and kill and they will destroy.
The Bible says by the providence of God, that won’t transpire until the God’s people are sealed in their foreheads.
The Seventh Trumpet brings with it the Investigative Judgment. October 22, 1844 when the Seventh Trumpet began to sound, Christ went from the Holy to the Most Holy Place. We are living in a sealing time. On September 11, 2001, God empowered the Advent Movement again by a Woe. If we don’t understand that, we will never, ever be gathered. We will never be considered God’s Remnant People who will give the final cry.
We have been given great light, and may God help us to improve upon that light or we will be the first to be left by the Holy Spirit. We need to understand that God is the same yesterday, today and always, and He always works the same. The Patterns in the Bible are for us that we might see the times in which we are living and awake from our lethargy. We are now living in the time of the judgment of the living and our sins must be sent before hand to the judgment that they may be blotted out.
