  • Apocalypse 10 + Gospel of the Seventh Seal

    LISTEN!
    Revelation 8
    Complete Jewish Bible
    8 When the Lamb broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for what seemed like half an hour. 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and they were given seven shofars.

    The Seven Trumpets

    You weren’t expecting it…

    never-the-less, the sound of the coming Wrath of the LORD is come!

    OR

    You listened to those who predicted it, yet the Wrath of the LORD was not revealed.

    So since it’s been millennia and the END has not come, it will not …

    or so you thought.

    Apocalypse of the END

    “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.

    Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.

  • Apocalypse 9 – the Wrath of the Lamb

    Apocalypse 9 – the Wrath of the Lamb

    We live now in a day of grace – but there is coming a day when the man that spits in the face of God shall meet His judgment.

    Dr. W. A. Criswell on Revelation 1:19

    Disaster on the Whole Earth

    Perhaps you remember recent disasters or recall the terror of some singular event of history.

    Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter

    The Revelation of Jesus Christ to John 1:19 KJV

    In the opening of the sixth seal Jesus Christ reveals to John an apocalypse of terror, which we might pray will not occur in our brief mortal days.

    OR the intro:

    where I first quoted from the Sixth Seal Rev. 6:16-17.

    The Sixth Seal

    Terror! – Cowering in the Wrath of the Lamb

    November A.D. 1945 – Nagasaki three months after dropping of ATOMIC BOMB!

    You can hardly image the devastations, the losses of so many lives, the traumatic terror of the sole survivors of unspoken disaster.

    • August 1931, Yangtze River, China #1 20th c. natural disaster
      • 30,000 sq. mi. flooded, 40 million homes destroyed, 15% of crops destroyed
      • > 3 million, 700 thousand deaths, many from starvation & disease.

    Do you recall from Apocalypse 7 – Death & Hell follows him the fourth seal deaths of 25% in China would be a hundred times that?

    • > 360.7 MILLION souls!
    9 AUG, 1945, explosion of Atomic Bomb 2000 feet above Nagasaki, Japan.

    We needn’t attempt to measure the devastation of nuclear holocausts beyond that of just two cities in 1945 Japan to realize that when a time of the wrath of God is to come upon the world at the end of these last days its terrorized creatures, men of dust and ashes, will hope to hide from Almighty God.

    Revelation 6:

    12 I watched as the Lamb broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became as dark as black cloth, and the moon became as red as blood.

    Would a nuclear blast above your city or an even more powerful manifestation of the Lord God not do the same in an instant? It would blacken the sun, cloud the moon and choke God’s breath of life from the atmosphere!

    13 Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind.

    The Apostle John sees them as stars, but the science of these last days tell us that even an asteroid (let alone many meteors striking the earth) would destroy life as we know it. And ‘mother nature’ never caused it, nor could sinful scientists prevent it. Just imagine the force of a hurricane throwing the hard surfaces of space onto the homes and workplaces of your existence.

    14 The sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all of the mountains and islands were moved from their places.

    It is a hail storm, a tornado; the eruption of a volcano swallowing up the earth and pouring fire into the cities; a hurricane and tsunami billowing waves of destruction into the unsuspecting great cities by the sea.

    Terror at the Wrath of the Lord!

    Then everyone—the kings of the earth, the rulers, the generals, the wealthy, the powerful, and every slave and free person—all hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.

    Revelation 6:15 NLT

    NO, it will not be only on earth — but from beneath it and into the depths of the seas the vengeance of Almighty God will finally punish the wicked and sinners..

    • Deaths of 25% of Mankind; >1 BILLION, 961 MILLION
    • > the TOTAL POPULATIONS of Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, Northern America, (including the U.S.) and Oceania.

    16 and they said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us..

    and hide us

    from the presence of Him who sits on the throne,

    and from the wrath of the Lamb;

    for the great day of their wrath has come,

    and who is able to stand?”

    Revelation 6:16b-17 NASB

    Is your name in the Book of the Lamb?

    ..Then a white robe was given to each of them..

    Revelation 6:11 – to the saints from Martyrs + the saints cry out
    apokalypsis of Good News

    Can you stand for the opening of the seventh seal?

    WAIT for a time; for first these must be sealed.

    Apocalypse 8 – Martyrs + the saints cry out

    “How long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who live on the earth?”

    Revelation 6:10b NASB – the cry of the martyrs from beneath the altar

    Martyrs

    judge's gavel - quote: And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment

    UNANSWERED Questions of those who died for their faith in Jesus Christ:

    Where is JUSTICE for those who die by the hands of the evil?

    Who will JUDGE those who kill the innocent and oppress the righteous?

    Rembrandt-Lapidation-Saint-Etienne-MBA-Lyon
    the Stoning of Stephen- painting by Rembrandt

    And all who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at him and saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

    “Are these things true? ” the high priest asked.

    “Brothers and fathers,” he replied, “listen: The God of glory appeared..

    .. and Stephen proceeded to preach the Gospel until those who rejected the God of Glory and cut by Truth silenced him in rage, stoning Christ’s martyr by the weight of their own guilt.

    Roger @ talk of Jesus {dot}.com on Acts 6:8-8:3 excerpt from CSB
    foxe's book of martyrs

    Stephen, the Apostles & many more martyrs among the saints

    The Acts of the Apostles record the power of the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ crucified and risen, but also the suffering by the saints of the church for witness of the Gospel to those who would believe.

    Resource: https://www.ccel.org/f/foxe/martyrs/fox101.htm

    Acts of the Apostles:

    • 4:3-4 And they laid hands on them [Peter & John] and put them in prison.. and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.

    “You men who are stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears are always resisting the Holy Spirit; you are doing just as your fathers did.. and you have now become betrayers and murderers of Him; you who received the Law as ordained by angels, and yet did not keep it.”

    Acts 7:51-53 excerpt NASB – indictment of the Jews through the martyr Stephen
    • 8:1b And on that day [of the stoning of Stephen] a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.
      • DATE: ~A.D. 33-36
    • 12:2b-3a [Herod Agrippa I] .. had James the brother of John executed with a sword. When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter as well.
      • DATE: A.D. 44
    • 14:19b20a .. they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead. But while the disciples stood around him, he got up and entered the city.
      • After many additional attacks, Paul would be executed in Rome – DATE: ~ A.D. 64-68
    • Simon Peter was also crucified in Rome during the persecutions of Nero – DATE: ~ A.D. 64-68 as were many other saints killed throughout the Empire both before and after the fall of Jerusalem.

    When will justice be served to those who crucify Truth and destroy the lives of the faithful?

    DATE ~A.D. 94–96 + John wrote the Revelation of Jesus Christ

    The deaths of martyrs mentioned had already taken place when John writes Revelation. The opening of the seven seals gives the Church a glimpse of Justice at the End of these last days.

    Jerusalem would fall in A.D. 70. The Sanhedrin would no more convict Christian or Jew.

    Rome would divide and crumble by the third century and the Empire would fall in A.D. 476.

    Even so, we realize now in A.D. 2021, the prophesy of the last days revealed by John is for a time nearer to US than that of the Apostles.

    The Fifth Seal

    the saints cry out!

    Revelation 6:

    9 When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained..

    It is the Altar of the Holy Throne Room of Heaven! The Lamb stands surrounded by seraphim and four living creatures, angels and elders of the heavenly court, hearing the prayers of the saints as these plead for justice.

    They cried out with a loud voice,

    “Lord, the one who is holy and true,

    how long until you judge those who live on the earth and avenge our blood?”

    Revelation 6:10 CSB

    Oh Lord, δεσπότης – despotēsas a bond servant addresses one’s Master, as one of the saints, bound to our Lord Christ as husband to the church.

    Jesus Christ is HOLY AND TRUE! –

    ἅγιος – hagios (an awful One) & ἀληθινός – alēthinosReal in name and resemblance, but the real nature corresponding to the name.

    “How long, O [Master], holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who live on the earth?”

    • Do you not judge and avenge?

    Rest yet a while longer

    You servants of the Lord

    take comfort in His answer to you;

    for only He IS righteous in judgment

    and vengeance belongs only

    to the Lamb on the Throne.

    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 fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

    Revelation 6:11 KJV
