The Sixth Seal. 

Revelation 6:12 KJVS
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

Within the sixth seal we are given a vision, through Christ using John, of what will transpire when Satan appears as the false Christ in the middle of the five-month long hour of temptation when the sixth trumpet sounds.

In the middle of Daniel’s Seventieth Week which was originally seven years but shortend to a five month period, the world will experience a great geopolitical shift. This geopolitical shifting will be when the world moves from a one world political order to a one world religious order under the rule of Satan as the antichrist. The sun which represents light will become black thus representing Satan’s darkness overtaking the third of the world’s population who are Christian, and the moon becoming as blood represents the thirds spiritual death at that time.

Revelation 6:13 KJVS
“And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.”

The third of the world during this time will cease being Christians by worshipping Satan as the antichrist which means instead of Christ. The third of the world’s population who were Christians, will have been shaken of the Tree of Life who is Jesus Christ, and will have fallen away from His Kingdom by taking part in the great apostacy. The sixth seal tells us what will transpire when the sixth angel sounds, and when the sixth trumpet sounds that is when this great falling away happens.

Not only we get the information about the sixth seal here in Revelation Chapter 6 we also have it opened up for our understanding in Matthew Chapter 24 verses 15 through 28, Mark Chapter 13 verses 14 through 23, and Luke Chapter 21 verses 20 through 24.

The Sixth Trumpet.

Revelation 9:13-14 KJVS
“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.”

At the sounding of the sixth trumpet the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates will be loosed. These four angels, which are the negative counterpart of the four living creatures that surround Christ throne (Revelation Chapter 4), will surround Satan’s false throne of deception during the latter half of the five-month period which is the consumer stage of the locust.

Revelation 9:15 KJVS
“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.”

This hour day month and year points to a specific time of the full consuming stage of the locust in which Satan’s locust army, and Satan’s role of false prophet spiritually consumes the life and light of Christ out of most Christians. Satan’s throne of deceit will be set up during the sixth trumpet to look like the true throne of Christ; however, it will be a cheap fabric imitation of it.

After the gnawing, swarming, and consuming stages of the locust transpire in the first half of the five-month long hour of temptation it will be in the latter half when spiritual death for many will happen. Perhaps that is why we see specifically in Luke Chapter 21 verse 20 these armies of super naturals compassing Jerusalem at the sounding of the sixth trumpet? That is when the” desolation is nigh”

Revelation 9:16 KJVS
“And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.”

Here we see in this vision given to John that the number of horsemen which are the 7000 fallen angels (locust army) increase to two hundred thousand thousand which means myriads of myriads: in other words, an enumerable number. 

How is this so?

Revelation 9:17 KJVS
“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.”

Here I believe John was given a vision of the technology that we have and will have, during the Woe of the Sixth Trumpet. The images of Satan and his fallen angles through the smart phones, T. Vs, computers, etc. will increase the presence of these fallen angels throughout the world during the latter half of the hour of temptation. These horses which will carry these horsemen will have breastplates of fire which means electricity, jacinth which in the Greek means a deep blue as in blue screen technology, and brimstone that is sulfur like.  Sulfur being very close to silicon on the periodic table.

 

Out of these fallen angel’s mouths through the many facets of technology during the sixth trumpet will come forth deception from their king who in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon and Apollyon in the Greek: the angel of the bottomless pit (Revelation Chapter 9 verse 11)

Revelation 9:18-19 KJVS
“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.”

Again, at the beginning of the final half of the five-month long hour of temptation the full consuming stage of the locust will begin, and it is when the third of the world which are Christians will be fully taken over by the fire smoke and brimstone of Satan’s deception spewed forth through his fallen angels. The third will be spiritually slain from this deception because it is a time that is already appointed. 

This appointed time must happen for many will have to abased in order to be humbly exalted (Matthew Chapter 23 verse 12).

Revelation 9:20-21 KJVS
“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.”

It will be at the sixth trumpet when the sixth vial will be poured out upon the earth. This plague of deception along with all the vials that have already been poured out leading up to the sixth, will extract the living water who is Jesus Christ who is the way, light and truth, out of the majority of Christians. Because of the light of Christ being taken from those who were supposed to be and remain the light of the world; those who never had the light of Christ(non-Christians) will carry on in Satan’s darkness unrepentant of their deeds. Remember only Christians can lose their spiritual lives by all six plagues of deception when the sixth vial is poured out. Those who will have already been spiritually dead will not find the hope of Christ in the third of Christianity who will have lost their spiritual lives by worshipping Satan.

The Sixth Vial.

Revelation 16:12-13 KJVS
“And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. [13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.”

It will be at the sounding of the sixth trumpet when the sixth vial is poured out upon the earth and with the previous five vials having already been poured out upon the earth, the sixth vial will join those plagues of deception thus ushering in total and complete spiritual darkness. This is when the Living Water who is Jesus Christ will be dried up so to speak out of most of Christianity, thus leaving them completely barren of the truth, the way and the life that can only come from Christ. Our Heavenly Fathers truth which is the only boundary which could keep the third from being deceived will be completely gone within them.

We see here in the sixth vial the river Euphrates being dried up also at the sixth trumpet, as we just discussed, the four angels will be loosed.

Again, when the sixth angel sounds and the sixth vial is poured out, all six trumpets will be sounding together, and all six vials will have been poured out upon the earth; this is when the full consuming stage of the locust will commence.

Staying with verse 13 of Revelation Chapter 16, we see that these three unclean spirits are compared to frogs. If we are to look at the Old Testament within the book of Exodus, we see one of the plagues brought upon Egypt (Exodus Chapter 8 verses 11 through 15) during Mosses time were frogs. Frogs encompassed the whole land of Egypt and Egypt means bondage, for many will be in spiritual bondage to Satan and his deception at 666.

Our of the mouth of the dragon who is Satan, out of the mouth of the one world religious beast in which Satan’s fallen angels a part of, and out of the mouth of the false prophet which is Satan’s role of antichrist will come fire, smoke, and brimstone which is the direct opposite of the Holy Spirit. 

Revelation 16:14-16 KJVS
“For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. [15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. [16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.”

Those who will remain infected by these three unclean spirits of Satan and his fallen angels upon our Lord Jesus Christs return at the Seventh Trumpet will be found spiritually naked and ashamed in His sight. They will have been gathered by Satan and his fallen angles to go against the true rider on the white horse when He returns with His angels at the end of the five month period (Revelation Chapter 19 verses 11 through 16)

It will be when the seventh angel sounds immediately after the silence in a space of a half hour written within the seventh seal (Revelation Chapter 8:1) when the true King of Kings returns with His angels to put an end to Satan’s deception with the brightness of His coming ( 2nd Thessalonians Chapter 2). Having also destroyed all flesh at that time, those who will find themselves naked of all righteous acts, will be ashamed and will wish the mountains and rocks would fall on them as it is also written, completing the sixth seal in Revelation Chapter 6.

Revelation 6:14-17 KJVS
“And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. [15] And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; [16] And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: [17] For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? “

Their stand with Satan and his fallen angels, against our Lord Jesus Christ and His angels will come to nought because when the true Christ returns, they will realize they were worshipping a fake! Oh, the excruciating shame they will feel. Woe to them and blessed are those who will have watched and kept their garments upon, what will be obvious to them, the True Lord Jesus Christs return.

This has been a study about the sixth seal, sixth trumpet, and the sixth vial.

The end.

The Fifth Seal.

Revelation 6:9-11 KJVS
“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: [10] And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? [11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.”

Here in the fifth seal, we see the souls under the Altar in heaven which are most of the 7000 Zadok that have lived and died throughout the centuries and have gone back to our Heavenly Father. In this vision given to John, these souls are told to rest for a little season until their fellow servants and also their brethren that should be killed as they were should be fulfilled. 
These Zadok under the Altar in heaven were literally slain in their lifetimes for the Word of God and their testimonies, however their fellow servants and also their brethren who will be alive here on earth during the Sixth Trumpet, will be delivered up to death (figuratively speaking) which is to say Satan for a testimony against him.

This little season of the delivering up of the fellow servants and brethren of the Zadok in heaven is the time span of the Sixth Trumpet. This is final half hour (2 and a half months) of the five-month long hour of temptation.

This span of time is also the space of a half hour when there will be silence in heaven written about in the seventh seal (Revelation Chapter 8:1) 

It is my belief that we are in the grace period of teaching in the fifth trumpet, and five in biblical numerical means grace.

Grace has been given because the four winds which represents the five-month long hour of temptation, has been held back for the sealing of the 144,000 as we can see in Revelation Chapter 7 

Revelation 7:1-4 KJVS
“And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. [2] And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, [3] Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. [4] And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.”

Remember we were all of the 12 tribes of Israel according to the Spirit in the First World Age, as the woman with the crown of 12 stars represents in Revelation Chapter 12.

The four winds which represents the five-month long hour of temptation have been and are still to this day being held back until that sealing of the 144,000 is accomplished. This sealing is the planting of the seeds of the seal of God so eventually when the time is right, these seeds will come to full fruition.

Within the seal of the living God who by His Son is the living Word are all seven seals which we can find also in Matthew Chapter 24, Mark Chapter 13 and Luke Chapter 21.

These seven seals give us understanding of the correct Biblical timeframe and or sequence of events that must transpire before the true Lord Jesus Christ returns at the end of the world at the Seventh Trumpet. 


The little season, short space, the final half hour of silence in heaven which the souls under the Altar will rest is essential to understand so we may remain on watch.

This short space (Revelation Chapter 17: 10) is the time frame of the delivering up as we can see in Matthew Chapter 24 verses 9-14, Mark Chapter 13 verses 9-11, Luke Chapter 21 verses 12 -19. This period of time is spoken about in the fifth seal. This understanding along with the rest of the seeds of the seal of God have been and are being continually sown in the 144,000 minds since the sounding of the fifth trumpet which transpired in 1969.

The Fifth Trumpet.

Revelation 9:1 KJVS
“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.”

In 1969 the fifth angel sounded 21 years after the fourth trumpet began sounding in 1948 (Daniel Chapter 10). We know that the final Fig Tree Generation kicked off when the fourth trumpet began sounding in1948 with the establishment of Kenite occupied Israel, and 21 years later with the fifth trumpet sounding the grace period of teaching began. This grace period of teaching will continue until the Woe of the Fifth Trumpet comes to pass.

Here in verse 1 of Revelation Chapter 9, we see after the fifth trumpet sounded, we notice a star who is Satan (Luke Chapter 10 verses 18 through 20), fall from heaven unto earth; this will take place at the Woe of the Fifth Trumpet which is yet to happen.

In the previous chapter which is Revelation Chapter 8 we see in the last verse after the fourth angel sounded that the the three trumpets that were yet to sound are woe trumpets. Again in 1969 the fifth trumpet began to sound, and the first of the three woes has yet to happen. 

Continuing in Revelation Chapter 9 we will look further into this first woe.

Revelation 9:2 KJVS
“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.”

Satan at the woe of the fifth trumpet will have the key to the bottomless pit, and I believe this key is the direct opposite of the Key of Knowledge which Christ holds; the Key of David.  Out of the bottomless pit will rise smoke, which is deception, thus beginning the four stages of the Locust that we can find in Joel Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.

Revelation 9:3 KJVS
“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.”

Out of the smoke (not the bottomless pit) will come Locust upon the earth, and these aren’t literal Locust, they are Satan’s 7000 fallen angels which will also be kicked out of heaven with Satan at the woe of the fifth trumpet when the four winds are released.

We can see this woe spoken about also in Revelation Chapter 12.

Revelation 12:7-12 KJVS
“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, [8] And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. [9] And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. [10] And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. [12] Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.”

The five-month long hour of temptation which is the term of the Locust will be a short time and within this short time is a short space when Satan as the antichrist will continue for 42 months which was shortened to 2 and a half months, the latter half of the hour of temptation (Revelation Chapter 13 verse 5).

Going back and continuing about these Locust in Revelation Chapter 9.

Revelation 9:4 KJVS
“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.”

Satan’s fallen angels which will include ten supernatural kings with Satan make up Daniel Chapter Sevens Fourth Beast. After the four winds are released Satan’s fallen angels will bring forth deception that will gnaw, swarm, devour, and ultimately consume anyone that will lack the seal of the living God inside their foreheads.  Yes this will effect the 144,000 until the seeds of the seal of God come to fruition inside thier foreheads during the time span of the delivering up. 

Revelation 9:5 KJVS
“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.”

Five months! You already have been told. 


The Fifth Vial. 

Let’s begin to look at this vial beginning with Revelation Chapter 13.

Revelation 13:1 KJVS
“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.”

Here in verse one, it should say ” the dragon stood upon the sand of the sea” seeing we are continuing with the subject that is the dragon from Chapter 12. John saw this vision of the beast rise up out of the sea of people (Revelation Chapter 17:15) which will transpire at the woe of the fifth trumpet when the four winds are released. 

This political beast will have seven heads which are seven mountains spoken about in Revelation Chapter 17 verse 9. These seven mountains are the seven continents of the planet earth which Satans one world political system will encompass. The ten horns which you see in the political beast are ten fallen angel kings that are part of his Locust army in which we have already discussed. These ten kings in which we can also see in Revelation Chapter 17, will be given power as kings to reign one hour with the beast who is Satan.

Revelation 17:12 KJVS
“And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”

Staying with Revelation Chapter 13 verse 1 we see upon these seven continents which this political system will encompass, will be the name of blasphemy which are the rest of the 7000 fallen angels that make up the Locust army.

Revelation 13:2 KJVS
“And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.”

This political beast will be like unto a leopard which will represent the Kenites and their Four Hidden Dynasties. The Kenites and their four facets of control will make up the infrastructure of this political beast. This beast will have feet as a bear which will represent Russia and the rest of the non-Christian countries which will make up the Ezekiel 38 confederacy. This political beast will also have mouth as a mouth of a lion which for the first half (2 and a half months) of the five-month long hour of temptation will represent the three Christian nations until they are plucked up geopolitically at the sixth trumpet by Antichrist reign. These three Christian nations that are destined to be plucked up by the roots are the United States (Manasseh) Great Britain (Ephraim) along with its commonwealth and Germany (Judah) along with the EU.

The dragon who is Satan will give this political beast its power, seat and great authority.

Note: to get a closer look at this political beast and all its necessary components at its rising, go to Daniel Chapter 7 verses 1 through 8.

Moving on in Revelation Chapter 13.

Revelation 13:3 KJVS
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.”

This deadly wound to the one world political beast will transpire towards the middle of the five- month long hour of temptation. The deadly wound to this political beast will occur when one or more countries (most likely Christian) on a continent claim their independence from this one world political system which the dragon will control. 

This deadly headwound which will be a revolt, is the fifth vial written about in Revelation Chapter 16.

Revelation 16:10 KJVS
And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

This fifth vial will be poured out upon the seat of this political kingdom, after which this political kingdom will be full of darkness. 

Let’s parrlell these verses about the fifth vial in Revalation Chapter 16, with the deadly headwound in Revalation Chapter 13.

Revelation 13:3-6 KJVS
“And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. [4] And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? [5] And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. [6] And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.”

The world will wonder after this beast following its deadly headwound because Satan will appear as the false Christ in the middle of the five month long hour of temptation to heal it. Upon its healing it will become a one world religious beast in which Satan as the antichrist (instead of Christ) will rule. Satan from that point will become the mouth of a lion. Most of Christianity spiritually and geopolitically will be plucked up and subdued into Satan’s darkness at that time believing he is the true Christ return to take control. Who will be able to make war with it? From that point Satan will continue forty-two months which was shortened to 2 and a half months, the latter half of the five- month long hour of temptation as the spurious messiah to blaspheme the inner most sanctuary of Christianity, who is Jesus Christ (2nd Thessalonians Chapter 2).

Jumping over to the last verse about the fifth vial in Revelation Chapter 16 we see what will happen as the result of this darkness that will set in.

Revelation 16:11 KJVS
“And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores and repented not of their deeds.”

As Satan will blaspheme our God in heaven by claiming to be Jesus Christ, so will most of Christianity blaspheme God by believing Satan is the true Christ. This is when most of Christianity will receive the Mark of the Beast in their foreheads which is the deception they will receive by believing Satan is the true Christ. At the sounding of the sixth trumpet which again transpires in the middle of the five-month period after the fifth vial is poured out when the deadly wound is healed, the little season which is the time of the delivering up will be in motion.

At this point is when the first” woe passes and behold there come two woes more hereafter ” (Revelation Chapter 9 verse 12.)

This is fifth seal, fifth trumpet, and the fifth vial.

555

The end. 

Departure

Revelation 6:9 KJVS
“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:”

I believe these souls under the altar in heaven within the fifth seal are many of the 7000 Zadok that have been literally slain for the Word of God and for their testimonies over the centuries that have gone back to our Heavenly Father.

These Zadok are part of the candlestick in heaven written about in Revelation Chapter 4 verse 5 which is made up of most of the 7000 Zadok that have already lived and died throughout the centuries. This candlestick in heaven represents most of the 7000 Zadok who will return with our Lord Jesus Christ (Revelation Chapter 19 verses 11 through 16) as the armies which were in heaven at the Seventh Trumpet which will sound immediately after the silence in heaven about the space of a half hour written about in the seventh seal (Revelation Chapter 8 verse1). This space of a half hour is the latter half of the five-month long hour of temptation

Revelation 6:10-11 KJVS
“And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? [11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.”

These Zadok, which are many of the prophets , apostles and servants of old, who are under the altar in heaven are told to rest a little season which is the short space of time which again is the latter half of the five-month long hour of temptation; the time span of Satan’s reign as little horn during the Sixth Trumpet.

It will be during the latter half of the hour of temptation when the final remnant of the 7000 Zadok who will be here on earth, will be delivered up first to death who is Satan as the antichrist. The 232 final remnant who are the church of Philadelphia will be deliverd up first for a testimony against him.

The word killed in Revalation Chapter 6 verse 11 has a different meaning in the Greek than the word slain in verse 9.

Let’s have a look at the word killed in the Greek.

Strong’s Number
G615
Original Word
ἀποκτείνω
Transliterated Word
apokteinō
Phonetic Spelling
ap-ok-ti’-no
Parts of Speech
Verb
Strong’s Definition
From G575 and κτείνω kteinō (to slay); to kill outright; figuratively to destroy: – put to death kill slay.”

This word killed can be taken outright or in a figurative sense. 

Let’s look further in its prime in the Greek. 

Strong’s Number
G575
Original Word
ἀπό
Transliterated Word
apo
Phonetic Spelling
apo’
Strong’s Definition
A primary particle;
“off” that is away (from something near) in various senses (of place time or relation; literally or figuratively): – (X here-) after ago at because of before by (the space of) for (-th) from in (out) of off (up-) on (-ce) since with. In composition (as a prefix) it usually denotes separation departure 6
cessation completion 6
reversal etc.”

We see here that this word killed differs from the word slain that is used in verse 9, and this word killed in a figurative sense usually denotes separation, departure, cessation, and completion. 

As for the Zadok in heaven fellow servants also and their brethren here on earth are concern, they will have a testimony to complete before they part ways from this corruptible flesh when the Seventh Trumpet transpires.

In Mark Chapter 13 we see the final remnant that will be here on earth during that dark span of time of Satan’s reign. They will be delivered up first to Satan who is death so that he as the spurious messiah may try to destroy the spiritual life within them. 

Mark 13:9-13 KJVS
“But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. [10] And the gospel must first be published among all nations. [11] But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. [12] Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. [13] And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”

The 232 final remnant of the 7000 Zadok will be delivered up first for a spiritual slaying, however the Holy Spirit’s testimony will instead issue forth through their mouths beginning a chain reaction of testimony which is called the latter rain. the latter rain of the Holy Spirits testimony will begin to speak through the church of Philadelphia and will fall upon other fellow servants who will come out of Satan’s deception during the sixth seal, sixth trumpet and the sixth vial. The Holy Spirit during that time will go through many of them as well when they are delivered up also for a testimony before the seventh trumpet sounds.

Going over to Luke Chapter 21 we see this attempt from Satan on the church of Philadelphia isnt a literal slaying because unlike the fellow brethren who are under the altar in heaven, not a hair on the church of Philadelphia’s heads will be harmed during the time of their testimony.

Luke 21:12-18 KJVS
“But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. [13] And it shall turn to you for a testimony. [14] Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: [15] For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. [16] And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. [17] And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake. [18] But there shall not an hair of your head perish.”

This of course also goes for everyone else who will also be delivered up for a testimony against Satan during that short space of time which again is the duration of the Sixth Trumpet.

Seeing that the word killed denotes separation or departure and completion; the 232 final remnant from the 7000 Zadok and eventually others will have a testimony to complete before they ultimately depart from the flesh at the seventh Trumpet when the true Christ returns with the armies which were in heaven.

1 Corinthians 15:39-44 KJVS
“All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. [40] There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. [41] There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. [42] So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: [43] It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: [44] It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.”

Looking at these verses here in 1st Corinthians Chapter 15, we see that we are sown into this second world age in a natural body which is earthly and with receiving life with Christ we will resurect into a spiritual body that is incorruptible when the seventh angel sounds. This is when the first resurrection takes place.

After Satan’s deception and the flesh gets destroyed at the seventh trumpet by the brightness of our Lord’s coming (2nd Thessalonians Chapter 2), and after Satan himself is thrown into the bottomless pit for 1000 years we see in Revelation Chapter 20, those who will take part in the first resurrection.

Revelation 20:1-6 KJVS
“And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. [2] And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, [3] And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. [4] And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. [5] But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. [6] Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.”

The priest of God will make up the Millennial priesthood upon our Lord Jesus Christ return when the seventh angel sounds, and they are all who will take part in the first resurrection on such the second death hath no power. I believe we can see in Revelation Chapter 20 verse  4 these groups of servants that will make up the millineal priesthood

The souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the Word of God will be most of the 7000 Zadok that will return with Christ as the armies which were in heaven written about in Revelation Chapter 19 verse 14. Again, these souls represent the Candlestick in heaven (Revelation Chapter 4 verse 5) which many of them were told to rest for that little season which is the time span of the sixth trumpet.

Looking at this word beheaded in the Greek we see that it means truncate.

“Strong’s Number

Strong’s Definition
From a derivative of G4141 (meaning an axe); to chop off (the head) that is truncate: – behead.”

Although many of the 7000 Zadok who have lived and died throughout the centuries were literally slain for Jesus Christ and the Word of God through their testimonies, many who will come with them upon Christs arrival, lives were truncated; perhaps finished more in a natural sense when their service to our Heavenly Father was completed.

We also see here in verse 4 those which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image; neither received his mark upon their foreheads or in their hands. These servants will be the final remnant of the 7000 Zadok who will be alive and remaining of that number here on earth (church of Philadelphia).  Along with the church of Philadelphia there will be the 144,000 who are the church of Smyrna that will come out of Satan’s deception before the seventh trumpet sounds: which many of them will be used for a testimony against Satan when the Holy Spirit speaks through them.  The 144,000 will awaken out of Satans confusion and repent and will be made white and clean totally redeemed from their iniquity. Also, there will be those outside of the final remnant and the 144,000; those of their own freewill, who will also repent by hearkening to what the Holy Spirit will say through the latter rain of truth when the church of Philadelphia are deliverd up first for a testimony against Satan. Even they who will awaken out of worshipping Satan of their own freewill before the seventh trumpet will be forgiven and made clean, totally redeemed so they can take part in the first resurrection.

” Blessed and Holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection; on such the second death hath no power.” 

Here we see the faithful servants who have departed the flesh throughout the centuries in their appointed times to go and have life with Christ: also, we see in the future those faithful brethren and fellow servants who will do the same. That life eternal is given to those who will depart this corruptible flesh and will join many prophets’ apostles and servants of old who will return in an incorruptible spirit when the last trumpet sounds. 

No one is flying away in fact this departure is very much spiritually grounded upon earth when the Lord Jesus Christ returns and plants his feet upon the Mt of Olives as it is written in Zechariah Chapter 14.

In closing.

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 KJVS
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. [53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”

Departure. 

The Nativity

In the last study we did, we seen the conception of John the Baptist transpired on June 24th 5 BC and the conception of our Lord Jesus Christ happened on December 25th that same year. With this understanding we arrive at the true birth of our Lord which happened nine months later on September 29th 4 BC, the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles.

Let’s start this study of the Nativity with Luke Chapter 2.

Luke 2:1-2 KJVS
“And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. [2] (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)”

This tax put forth by Ceaser Augustus was a census: a registry which people of their own regions would have to report to.

Luke 2:3-4 KJVS
“And all went to be taxed, everyone into his own city. [4] And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)”

Joseph was of the lineage of David. We can see his lineage given in Matthew Chapter 1. 

Luke 2:5 KJVS
“To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.”

With Joseph, Mary was also put into registry, thus being Joseph’s espoused wife, and pregnant with her child. We can see Mary’s lineage written about in Luke Chapter 3 which is her father Heli’s lineage who was obviously Joseph’s father-in-law. In Mary’s lineage through her father we can see she was also of the house of David. With both being from the house of David: we see in Joseph’s lineage, again given in Matthew Chapter 1, that he would come from Solomon, and in Mary’s lineage, as we can see in Luke Chapter 3, Mary would come from Nathan: both Nathan and Solomon being sons of David.

We also should add that Mary through her father was of the king line, and as we have seen in the last study Elizabeth, Mary’s cousin, was of the daughters of Aaron thus making Mary, through her mother, of the Levitical line as well. 

Luke 2:6-7 KJVS
“And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. [7] And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.”

Here we see after the Word was made flesh through the conception, our Lord Jesus Christ was tabernacled among mankind through His birth thus fulfilling John Chapter 1 verse 14, the Word “dwelt amongst us” 

Therefore, we see the significance of our Lord Jesus Christ birth taking place on September 29th 4 BC, the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles.

Luke 2:8 KJVS
“And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.”

Here we see shepherds abiding in the field at night keeping watch over their flock. This couldn’t have happened on December 25th because as Bullinger also points out in Appendix 179 in the Companions Bibe, shepherds wouldn’t be keeping flocks of sheep in the winter months.  Also, a census being imposed by Ceaser Augustus in the winter months wouldn’t be fair conditions for travel for the people who are registering.

What did these shepherds see that night in the feild? 

Luke 2:9-12 KJVS
“And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. [10] And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. [11] For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. [12] And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.”

A wonderful message from the Angel of the Lord, a message of glad tidings of a humble birth in meager conditions. The birth of a great Prince who is the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords had taken place: for He is Emanuel, that is to say God with us! 

Luke 2:13-14 KJVS
“And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, [14] Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”

Good will towards all men indeed from our Heavenly Father through the Holy Spirit from the womb of an espoused virgin that was from both king and Levitical line. Unto us a child was born to take upon himself the sins of many becoming our High Priest, the unblemished Lamb that would be the one- and all-time sacrifice for our sins. 

Luke 2:16-20 KJVS
“And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. [17] And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. [18] And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds. [19] But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. [20] And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.”

A shepherd must always remain on watch, and what these shepherds seen that night had to be quite an experience indeed. If I may add, as those shepherds were on watch, the shepherds of these end times will be on watch for the return of the Kings of Kings who is not coming back as a Lamb but returning as a Lion at the Seventh Trumpet. Our Lord Jesus Christ who is the Lion of the tribe of Judah will return at the end of the world which is the Harvest (Matthew Chapter 13 verse 37 through 42).

Moving on.

Luke 2:21 KJVS
“And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.”

This eighth day was the last and great day of the Feast of Tabernacles (John Chapter 7:37), also these eight days were accomplished thus fulfilling our Lord’s circumcision per Leviticus Chapter 12:3.

Jesus, which means Jehovah’s Savior, also being the name that was given to the child by the Angel before He was conceived in Luke Chapter 1 verses 30 through 31.

Luke 2:22 KJVS
“And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;”

This purification according to the Law of Moses is spoken about in Leviticus Chapter 12 verses 1 through 4. This purification would be forty days total until Mary and Joseph could present the beautiful and wonderful child to the Lord in Jerusalem.

Luke 2:23 KJVS
“(As it is written in the law of the Lord, every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)”

Verse 23 here is quoted from Exodus Chapter 13 verse 2. Jesus Christ is Holy to the Lord, no doubt, for He “is the first born of every creature: for by Him was all things created in heaven and that are in earth (Colossians Chapter 1 verses 15 through 18). He is the Word, the Light that shines through men.

Luke 2:24 KJVS
“And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.”

This offer of sacrifice is written in Leviticus Chapter 12 verse 6.

We see the Law was still being fulfilled after Christ’s birth; for our Lord Jesus Christ was the fulfillment of the Law and also the Prophets who prophesied of His coming, which is the first advent, long before the conception.

Luke 2:25-32 KJVS
“And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him. [26] And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. [27] And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, [28] Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, [29] Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: [30] For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, [31] Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; [32] A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.”

Simeon here quoted from the Prophets, which was Isaiah Chapter 42 verses 1 through 7.

Isaiah 42:1-7 KJVS
“Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. [2] He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. [3] A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. [4] He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law. [5] Thus saith God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: [6] I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; [7] To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ who is Jehovah’s Savior, and God’s Salvation was born out of Bethlehem, which means house of Bread, being the Word of God that was made flesh. Our Lord Jesus Christ who is the image of the Father was created and born to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. This prison being the prison of the majorities minds so to speak which the prince of this air who is Satan, even at this time, controls. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Light that shines into darkness, which darkness cannot overpower (John Chapter 1 verses 1 through 5).

Luke 2:33-34 KJVS
“And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. [34] And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;”

Even today many speak against Christ who is the sign that was given to us all throughout the Old and New Testament: His Word! 

Fall here in verse 34 means stumbling block and we can see this stumbling block written about all over our Heavenly Fathers scriptures (Isaiah Chapter 8 verse 14, Matthew Chapter 21 verses 42 and 44, Acts Chapter 4 verse 11, Romans Chapter 9 verse 33, and 1st Corinthians Chapter 1 verse 23).

The Stone, in which many people stumble in unbelief, who is Jesus Christ “was set to naught by the builders as we can see in Acts Chapter 4 verse 11 and Psalms 118 verse 22). This means Christ who was rejected and treated in contempt became the Head of the Corner, for the rising of many (Matthew Chapter 11: 5-6) who will believe upon Him, repent and walk and remain in His way which is the truth and the life. Jesus Christ is the true Cornerstone, a foundation which we can set our lives upon. Our Rock! 

Simeon concludes.

Luke 2:35 KJVS
“(Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

Simeon knew by the power of the Holy Spirit that years after our Lord and Saviors birth, He would be crucified upon the cross thus sending a sword of heartbreak through Mary. However as hard as that may have been for her, she knew that it had to come to pass so our Heavenly Father could resurrect Him for the greater good. The greater good being that all who will believe upon our Lord Jesus Christ and repent, will rise up and walk in the newness of the Spirit (Romans Chapter 7), guided by the Light of His Truth

The Nativity was fulfilled so we may believe upon Him who is the Word that was made flesh and dwelt among many. Our Lord Jesus Christ through His conception, birth, death and resurrection, being the Firstborn of every creature (Colossians Chapter 1) fulfilled the Law and the Prophets, made it possible for us to learn of Him and to eventually rise up and join Him in everlasting Life. Halleluiah!

Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life, that was born out of Bethlehem, who we can partake of by feasting upon His Words daily, for He is the Word that was there from the beginning, who foretold us all things.

This has been about our Lord and Saviors birth, the Nativity.

The end. 

“A Virgin Shall Conceive”…

John 1:1-5 KJVS
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. [4] In him was life; and the life was the light of men. [5] And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ who was the Word, was there since the beginning and in Him was life and life was the Light of men.

John 1:6-14 KJVS
“There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. [7] The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. [8] He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. [9] That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. [10] He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

John the Baptist was conceived and born to bear witness of the Light who is Jesus Christ, and Jesus Christ was the Word that was made flesh and dwelt among many. His glory was for many to behold, the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. This study is based upon the conception of the forerunner of the Light and the conception of the only begotten, through Mary, who would bring us the Light: our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Let’s go to Luke Chapter 1 starting at verse 5 , as Our Heavenly Father through Luke gives us an accurate account on both conceptions.

Luke 1:5 KJVS
“There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.”

Zacharias was a priest, a high priest of the course of Abia. These courses are Levitical courses that were originally set up by David in 1st Chronicles Chapter 24. Two courses for a priest two times a year in which each course was a seven-day period.  It was in the month of June when Zacharias fulfilled his obligation to his course.

Looking at Appendix 179 III, in the Companions Bible we see the announcement of the miraculous conception of John the Baptist to Zacharias between June 13th through the 19th during his priestly course which would end on June 19th in 5 BC.

Here in verse 5, we see Elizabeth, Zacharias wife, was of the daughters of Aaron making her part of the Levitical line of the House of Israel. 

Luke 1:6-17 KJVS
“And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. [7] And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years. [8] And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course, [9] According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord. [10] And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense. [11] And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense. [12] And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him. [13] But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. [14] And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. [15] For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb. [16] And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. [17] And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”

With the power of the Holy Spirit within John inside Elizabeth’s womb, John the Baptist would go forth from his birth to be the forerunner to our Lord Jesus Christ bearing witness of His Light thus preparing the way of our Lord.

Luke 1:18-23 KJVS
“And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years. [19] And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings. [20] And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season. [21] And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple. [22] And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless. [23] And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.”

After receiving the announcement from Gabriel and becoming dumbstricken and not able to speak, Zacharias completing his priestly course would put us at June 19th, 5 BC; not leaving Jerusalem until June 20th. Upon his departure calculating his time of travel being old in age, Zacharias would not arrive to his house until June 21st or on June 22nd. This leaves ample time for the miraculous conception to take place on or about June 23rd or June 24th that year.  See Appendix 179 in E.W Bullingers Companions Bible on page 198 through 200.

Luke 1:24-25 KJVS
“And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying, [25] Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.”

After Elisabeths conception she hid herself for five months.

Now we go to her cousin Mary.

Luke 1:26-27 KJVS
“And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, [27] To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.”

Six months from Elisabeths miraculous conception of John would put the visitation of Gabriel upon Mary on December 25th which many today believe to be the date that the birth of our Lord transpired.

Luke 1:28-38 KJVS
“And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. [29] And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. [30] And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. [31] And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. [32] He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: [33] And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. [34] Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? [35] And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. [36] And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. [37] For with God nothing shall be impossible. [38] And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.”

We as Christians believe that life begins in the womb, however we as Christians also know that our Lord Jesus Christ, who was conceived in Mary’s womb by the Holy Spirit on the sixth month of Elisabeths pregnancy, is Life and is the Light that has been here from the beginning. We see here in the following verses that even John who was in Elisabeth’s womb felt the presence of the Holy Spirit after Mary ran to her to tell her the news.

Luke 1:39-41 KJVS
“And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda; [40] And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth. [41] And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:”

John rejoiced in the womb.

Luke 1:42-56 KJVS
“And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. [43] And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? [44] For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. [45] And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. [46] And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, [47] And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. [48] For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. [49] For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. [50] And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. [51] He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. [52] He hath put down the mighty from their seats and exalted them of low degree. [53] He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. [54] He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; [55] As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed forever. [56] And Mary abode with her about three months and returned to her own house.”

A powerful testimony of the richness and fullness of the Almighty! His arm His strength that dwelt among many from that day thus moving John the Baptist to leap in his mother’s womb. A child conceived and would be born to bring Light to many. 

From the point of Mary’s arrival on that sixth month of Elisabeth’s pregnancy with John, Mary abode with Elizabeth for three months and then journeyed home.

Luke 1:57 KJVS
“Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.”

After three months from Mary’s salutation and her departure, Elizabeth brought forth John the Baptist which would make it March 28th or the 29th.

Luke 1:58-80 KJVS
“And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her. [59] And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father. [60] And his mother answered and said, Not so ; but he shall be called John. [61] And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. [62] And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. [63] And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all. [64] And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God. [65] And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea. [66] And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him. [67] And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying, [68] Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, [69] And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; [70] As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: [71] That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; [72] To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; [73] The oath which he sware to our father Abraham, [74] That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, [75] In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life. [76] And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; [77] To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, [78] Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, [79] To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace. [80] And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.”

Indeed, the witness who was John the Baptist was conceived and born to prepare the way for the Lord Jesus Christ who was the light from the beginning. A sign given through the prophets of old, which we see in Isaiah Chapter 7.

Isaiah 7:14 KJVS
“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”

That virgin was Mary who conceived on December 25th, and who beared our Lord Jesus Christ nine months later on September 29th thus fulfilling the Nativity. He is Immanuel which means God with us, even when He was in the womb.

Rejoice! 

Throne of Glory

As we begin this study, I feel it’s important to go to Revelation Chapter 1 to find out the time frame of Revelation Chapter 4.

Revelation 1:7-10 KJVS
“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. [8] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. [9] I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. [10] I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,”

John was in the Isle that is called Patmos and was taken in the spirit to the Lord’s Day which begins at the Seventh Trumpet.

This study is based on the vision of Revelation Chapter 4 that was given to John which gives us an awesome understanding of our Lords return. 

Revelation 4:1 KJVS
“After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me, which said, come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.”

This transpires upon our Lords return to the earth and I believe John was taken aboard our Lord’s highly polished spectrum metal vehicle upon its descent to earth thus signifying the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet.

Revelation 4:2-3 KJVS
“And immediately I was in the spirit: and behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. [3] And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.”

This throne is our Lord Jesus Christ’s and will be transported here in this highly polished spectrum metal vehicle. Here in verse 3, you can see a rainbow round about the throne: the same rainbow that we can find in the last verse of Ezekiel Chapter 1.

Ezekiel 1:28 KJVS
“As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.”

In Eziekiel Chapter 1 you can find this same highly polished spectrum metal vehicle spoken about in the vision that was given to Ezekiel. If you are to look at Ezekiel Chapter 1 verse 4 you can see the appearance of this vehicle was the color of amber and amber in the Hebrew translation means highly polished spectrum metal.

Of uncertain derivation; probably bronze or polished spectrum metal: – amber.”

I believe we can see clearly in Revelation Chapter 4; John was told to come up hither and taken aboard what appears to be our Lords flagship that will carry His throne upon His descent to earth.

Let’s see what else John saw when he was taken aboard that vehicle.

Revelation 4:4 KJVS
“And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.”

24 seats were round about our Lord’s throne, in them were 24 elders in white raiment with crowns upon thier heads. These crowns that they were wearing indicate them taking part in the first resurrection which transpires at the seventh trumpet.

Who are these 24 elders?

Matthew 19:27-28 KJVS
“Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore? [28] And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

12 of these elders are the 12 Apostles as Jesus points out in Matthew Chapter 19. It is my belief the other 12 thrones go to the 12 Patriarchs of Israel. Seeing these 24 kings and priest surround our Lord and Saviors throne, I feel it’s important to point out the negative counter part of these 24 elders which are the ten supernatural fallen angel kings that will recieve power as kings, 1 hour with the beast who is Satan.  These ten kings are the ten horns you can read about in Daniel Chapter 7 which are part of Daniel’s fourth beast, and Revelation Chapter 13 where you see them part of the one world political beast that will turn into a one world religious beast; and in Revelation Chapter 17 where it says they will reign 1 hour with the beast who is Satan. 

Revelation 17:12-13 KJVS
“And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.”

This one hour is the five-month long hour of temptation which will transpire right before the great notable Day of our Lord’s return: the Seventh Trumpet.

Staying with this for a moment, In the Companions Bible on page 1889 in the note section for Revelation Chapter 4 verse 4, Bullinger points out that these 24 elders are a Heavenly pattern after which David arranged his twenty-four courses of the sons of Aaron. (See 1st Chronicles Chapter 24 verses 3 through 5).

The priestly courses of the Levites were divided into 24 courses which each course, the priest would serve one week, two times a year: 14 days for each priest.  So, if we take the 14 days and multiply it by ten fallen angel kings you’ll then have 140 days. 140 days in lunar time is five-months: the five-month long HOUR of temptation, in which these ten fallen angel kings will be given power as kings to reign with the beast who again is Satan. 

Going back to the vision of John in Revalation Chapter 4.

Revelation 4:5 KJVS
“And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.”

Many of the 7000 Zadok have already lived and died throughout the centuries who have served our Heavenly Father and returned to Him. This is the candlestick in Heaven, and most of the Zadok which are in heaven are the armies in heaven who will return with Christ as it is written in Revelation Chapter 19 verses 11 through 14. Indeed, many of the Zadok will follow Christ upon white horses which could indicate vehicles.

Staying with verse 5 in Revelation Chapter 4, we see that these Zadok in heaven are also the seven spirits of God. Seven means spiritual completeness and the total 7000 Zadok, which also includes the final remnant that will be here on earth, names are already written in the book of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Because they made a stand against Satan in the first world age, they all have been chosen to come forth through this second world age, each in their apointed generations, to serve our Heavenly Father. Because they were chosen, freewill is absent from them and the Holy Spirit used and can use them at any time throughout their lives. Remember most of the 7000 Zadok have already lived and died throughout the centuries and many of them and their lives were used to write our Heavenly Fathers Word. The light from the final remnant testimonies shines and will continue to shine on earth, as the candlestick which is before our Lord Jesus Christ throne will continue to shine through His Words in His Holy scripture.

Moving on

Revelation 4:6 KJVS
“And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.”

In the midst of our Lord’s throne and around it is four living creatures that we can also read about in Revelation Chapter 6. These four beasts also have a negative counterpart which are the four angels that will be loosed from the river Euphrates when the sixth trumpet sounds in the middle of the five-month long hour of temptation.

Revelation 9:13-15 KJVS
“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.”

Keep in mind that Satan will appear in Jerusalem at the sixth seal,  sixth trumpet and the sixth vial as the negative counterpart to Jesus Christ and His throne.  

Continuing with the four living creatures in Revalation Chapter 4.

Revelation 4:7 KJVS
“And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.”

Here in verse 7 we are seeing these same four living creatures that Ezekiel seen in Ezekiel Chapter 1. Just like here in Revelation Chapter 4 we see in Ezekiel Chapter 1 verse 10 the likeness of these four living creatures which had a face of a man, a lion, an ox, an eagle. It appears these four living creatures protect our Lord’s throne.

After this pattern of protection we see here in Numbers Chapter 2: the encampment of Israel according to the flesh when they were in the wilderness for forty years. Through this diagram that is given in the Companions Bible on page 181, we see Judahs standard representing the lion towards the east,  Ephraims standard representing the ox towards the west, and we see Ruebans standard representing a man towards the north and Dan’s standard representing an eagle towards the south.

Continuing with John and his vision.

Revelation 4:8-9 KJVS
“And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. [9] And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,”

Here in verses 8 and 9 we see that these four beasts that surround our Lord Jesus Christs throne had wings and these four beast were also full of eyes within.

Next couple verses to close out the Chapter.

Revelation 4:10-11 KJVS
“The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, [11] Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”

Bringing our attention back to the 24 elders that surround Christs throne, we see they had crowns upon their heads which once again puts us in the time frame of the seventh trumpet. Upon our Lord Jesus Christ return after the five-month long hour of temptation ends, all who will take part in the first resurrection will receive crowns which represents eternal life. 

In closing of this study, we are going to jump over to Daniel Chapter 7 and look at a few verses which correspond with this interesting fourth Chapter of Revelation.

Let’s check it out.

Daniel 7:9 KJVS
“I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.”

Once again, we see these wheels which are the four living creatures that surround our Lord Jesus Christs throne and the seats of Judgment being placed for the millennium.

Daniel 7:10 KJVS
“A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.”

At the seventh trumpet judjment will be set and these thousand and thousands that minister unto Christ directly will be the total 7000 Zadok that we can also read about in Ezekiel Chapter 44 starting with verse 15.

These are the priest the Levites, the sons of Zadok, all 7000 of them, who will be part of the Millennial Priesthood, and the only ones who can approach Christs throne during the 1000 years which is the Millennium.  They are the 24 elders along with the rest of the Zadok that will return with Christ, plus the 232 final remnant of Zadok that will be gathered from the four winds to our Lords throne to also minister unto Christ during that great and notable day.

Again, Judgment will be set, and the books will be opened, and this Judgment can only happen when the King of Kings and Lord of Lords return and touches His feet upon the Mt of Olives where He once ascended from. (Zechariah Chapter 14, Acts Chapter 1)

This has been a vision that was given to John of a true throne of power, glory and honor. Thanks be to Our Heavenly Father in Jesus name.

The end. 

Noah, Lot; About Our Lord’s Return

Luke 17:26-27 KJVS
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. [27] They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ was telling His disciples what it will be like upon His return.  Like the days of Noah, many will partake in ungodliness such as eating, drinking spiritually of Satan’s deception which will be distributed from him and through his fallen angles up until the unexpected return of our Lord Jesus Christ at the Seventh Trumpet.

Unlike a few that will remain on watch, our Lords unexpected return will take many by surprise who will be found still in Satan’s deception when the Seventh Angel sounds.

It will be right before the seventh trumpet sounds when Satan’s fallen angels are destroyed in an earthquake as it is written in Revelation Chapter 11 verse 13. When the seventh angel immediately sounds after the 7000 fallen angels are destroyed, the Lord will return and destroy Satan’s deception, his one world system, and all flesh as it is written in Revelation Chapter 19 verses 19 through 21.

Just like the days of Noah, which Noah was just and perfect as to breed or pedigree, those who will have the only one who was righteous and just inside them, our Lord Jesus Christ, will go forth on the Ark so to speak and take part in the first resurrection at the seventh trumpet.

Jesus Christ continues in Luke Chapter 17.

Luke 17:28 KJVS
“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;”

This buying and selling here in the days of Lot can be prophetically compared to the Mark of the Beast written in Revelation Chapter 13 verses 11 through 18. As those of Sodom went forth buying and selling in a physical sense as if they were in no danger of destruction so will those who will continue to buy into, in a spiritual sense, Satan’s deception and sell it to each other up to the sounding of the seventh trumpet.
Again, the corrupt inhabitants of Sodom carried on eating and drinking, planting and building as if they were not going to face Gods indignation, so will those who will both in a physical and spiritual sense, eat, drink plant and build within Satan’s one world religious system till its destruction upon the true Christ return.

Luke 17:29 KJVS
“But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.”

Indeed, as it was for Sodom so will it be in the day of our Lord’s return when all flesh is destroyed. In that great and notable day of our Lord’s wrath after all flesh is destroyed, all that will be left for many is a mortal (liable to die) soul who will feel great shame because of their wickedness in worshipping Satan instead of the true Christ (Revelation Chapter 6 verses 14 through 17).

As it rained fire and brimstone in the days of Lot (Genesis Chapter 19) to bring upon Sodom and Gomora’s destruction, in Eziekiel Chapter 38 we see these same great hailstones of fire rain down on the Ezekiel Chapter 38 confederacy, headed by Gog which is Russia. When Gog is dispatched by Satan to go against the mountains of Israel which are those who will be one in Christ going into the seventh trumpet, those who will be dispatched against the mountains of Israel will physically and spiritually feel the indignation of our Lord upon His approach to earth. While this battle is being fought by our Lord, the battle of Armageddon will also be fought by our great and mighty savior upon His return. These battles of Hamon Gog and Armageddon are written about in Eziekiel Chapters 38 and 39 and Revelation Chapter 19 verses 17 through 21.

Those who will be one in Christ during that time will have remained on watch and will know the true Christ has returned. They will not desire their earthly garment because they will know that the flesh and those things of the flesh will be no more.  Those who will have refrained and those who will have come out of Satan’s confusion to remain on watch will be those who are not taken or no longer taken by Satan’s deception. They will be those who will remain in the field of work for our Lord up to the sounding of the seventh trumpet. 

This work throughout the remainder of the sixth trumpet will be done by the Holy Spirit to help bring down Satan’s defied kingdom, and this is the fire that our Lord will find still kindled which He spoke about in Luke Chapter 12.

Luke 12:49 KJVS
“I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?”

Our Lord Jesus Christ’s fire is the Holy Spirit which upon His death and resurrection was sent upon all who will believe upon Him, the Spirit of Truth. 
During the latter half of the five-month long hour of temptation a testimony which only the Holy Spirit can give will issue forth through all who will be delivered up to Satan as the antichrist during that dark time leading up to the seventh trumpet. Our Lord Jesus Christ will return at the last trumpet and find those who are in the field and didn’t turn back with the fire of the Holy Spirit kindled within them.

Christ continues in Luke Chapter 17.

Luke 17:32 KJVS
“Remember Lot’s wife.”

Jesus instructs His disciples here to remember Lots wife. In Genesis Chapter 19 we see that after the two angels told Lot, his daughters and his wife to flee from Sodom and our Heavenly Father’s wrath that will fall upon it, Lot’s wife turned back and became a pillar of salt. Lot’s wife turning into salt tells us to stay grinding at the mill and stay in the field of His work because what was the flesh and all the impure rudiments of the world which will eventually fall under Satan’s control will be destroyed. 

Luke 17:33 KJVS
“Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.”

At the seventh trumpet many who will be without spiritual life they lost won’t have anything left of their lives they held so dear. While many at that time will seek death and shall not find it because of great shame as it is written in Revelation Chapter 9 verse 6, those who stayed in the field will go forth into the Lords Day with their spiritual lives preserved. For Christ name sake , Christ also mentions this earlier in Luke Chapter 9.

Luke 9:23-26 KJVS
“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. [24] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. [25] For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away? [26] For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father’s, and of the holy angels.”

Those who will remain on watch will have taken up their crosses and refrain from being taken, also those who will have escaped from being taken, will take up their crosses also and will preserve their lives unto a life eternal.

Luke 17:34-36 KJVS
“I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. [35] Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. [36] Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”

Those who will think they are preserving their spiritual lives by worshipping who they think is the true Christ during the sixth trumpet will have left the mill, thus leaving their Heavenly Fathers Truth, and they will have been taken and remained out of the field of our Lords work which our Heavenly Father commanded us to stay in.

Don’t turn back, you are in the field of our Heavenly Fathers work; keep moving forward in our Lords Truth and watch! 

Last verse in Luke Chapter 17.

Luke 17:37 KJVS
“And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ concludes with telling His disciples where He will return. Wherever the body which should say carcass, tither will the eagles, which correctly translated should say vultures, be gathered together. 

At the seventh trumpet those who have climbed upon the Ark, so to speak, and stayed in the field will know when the true Christ returns. However, those who are still found eating, drinking and marrying into Satan’s deception while building and planting within it will be caught by surprise when their flesh is no longer there and the spiritual life, they thought they had with the spurious messiah never existed. Remember Lots wife and remember in this specific teaching of Christ, just like the days of Noah and Lot, so shall it be also in the day of our Lord when the seventh angel sounds. 

Noah, Lot; about our Lord’s return.

The end.
