Verse one of Revelation Chapter Eight concludes the subject of the Seven Seals. Bible scholars are aware that the chapter and verse delineation’s were not in the original text. The subject of the SEVEN TRUMPETS begins with verse two.

Author wishes to acknowledge the ministerial associates without whom I would have never gained a foundation of biblical understanding. The accumulation of these keys to unlock God’s word has come from a lifetime sitting under the ministry of the Body Of Christ. We have always been taught to let the Bible interpret itself.

The metaphorical language common to the apostles and early church members was lost as the church descended the stairsteps of one ecumenical council to another. Men’s minds became darkened as acceptance of doctrines from these councils replaced truths taught by Jesus and apostles. The reversal of this decay began with the early reformers, such as Calvin, Luther, Wesley brothers, ect . True understanding was rekindled with the preaching and teaching of Gods Word by Bro. Sowders and other great men who surrounded him such as Revy Mears. The dramatic yet simple explanations of Old Testament Type and Shadows {word pictures} taught by these men and those that heard them has thrilled the hearts of all who hunger for truth and righteousness. According to my understanding The SEVEN TRUMPETS of Revelation presents a prophetic picture of the basic dispensations of the "CHURCH AGE", from approximately A.D. 30 to A.D. 2030 And introduces the Thousand Year Reign of Christ.II Kings Chapter four relates the Shunamite Woman’s Life of supporting, by revelation, the Prophetic ministry of EliJah. This woman’s faithfulness was honored by God. The "Righteous Line" of the Old Testament can clearly be seen by this Servant Spirit toward the man of God in meeting and attending to his needs. This "Righteous Line" from Able to Zacharia always made room for and abided by the prophetic understanding of the revelation of the coming of Jesus Christ.

The power of this picture is enhanced by the understanding that most Women of the Old Testament whose children were used significantly by God were "barren" until prophecy from God came forth. These women of prophecy always represented, in, the barrenness or inability to produce New testament LIFE, i.e. Holy Ghost Life, to the soul of humanity until the coming of the true SEED from God at the appointed time. This Seed is Christ according to Paul Eph.3:16 Ps. 22:27-31 ect.

The word of God came to this Shunamite woman from Elijah’s mouth that she should conceive a child dispite the fact her husband was old and had not up to this time produced a son to sustain his linage. This prophetic child represents, in type, the "Man Child" of Rev.12:5. The Woman standing on the Moon clothed by the Sun typified the Church of Jesus Christ. The Moon, which has no light in itself, only reflected light. The Moon has power within itself to exert differing pressures on the Earth. Thus causing the tides, ect. Read Ps. 89:37 Isa.30:26. With Christ being the Sun, whose coming was reflected off the Moon Old Testament so poetically portrayed in so many passages, we can only conclude the woman of Rev.12 to be the New Testament Church that came forth on the Day of Pentecost. This Sunamite woman Gave birth according to her prophetic season. She raised her son to manhood. This Manchild went to labor in the field with his father at harvest time. It’s significant to note the time the lad went into the field, it was early morning. The stroke suffered by the Manchild in the morning and the carrying to his mothers lap and dying at noon gives us a clue to the time frame that overcomers were produced by the early church.

The Bible gives us reference points like the time Isreal could have entered promise land but because of unbelief were cursed by God to one year for each day the spies were in the promised land. These thoughts in scripture are the basis of our revelation that a day equals a year in Gods timeclock for humanity. Hence 360 divided by 24. = 15.

This revelation lets us know that one hour in God’s time for humanity is fifteen years .

The six hours depicted in this type from daylight till noon lays a foundation for the time overcomers were being reaped from early church. II Pet.1:10 "Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, ye shall never fall Six times fifteen equals ninety years. From A.D. 30 till A.D. 120 we have strong Biblical references to the activities relating to individuals overcoming. Beginning with Jesus himself thru churches of Asia. John the revelator relates the church still has strength to mature overcomers up to fifteen years after his, the last Apostles’ death.

Rev:3:10 "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth"

Rev. 8:2 "And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets."

Rev.23:23-25 "For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites,and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites and I will cut them off. Thou shalt not down to their gods , nor serve them nor do after their works; but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee."

Rev1:20-2:1 "The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches; and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches. Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;"

Matt. 24:31 "And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. "END OF THE JEWISH WORLD—HEAVEN--

Ps. 19:6 "His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. "TRUMPET---

I Cor.15 Matt.24:31 :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."

I Thes. 4:16 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout ,with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first."

II Kings 9:13 "Then they hasted , and took every man his garment , and put it under him on the top of the stairs , and blew with trumpets , saying Jehuis king."

Zeph 1:16 "A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities , and against the high towers."

Joel 2:1,15 "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound the alarm in my holy mountain; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble ; for the day of the lord cometh; for it is nigh at hand." "Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast , call a solemn assembly."

II Chron 5:12-13 "Also the Levites which were the singers , all of them as Asaph, of Herman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, being arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps , stood at the east end of the alter, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets; It came to pass, as the trumpets and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord ; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD , saying, For he is good ; for his mercy endureth for ever :that then the house was filled with a cloud , even the house of the LORD;"

Rev. 4:1 "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." Neh 4:18-20 "For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side , and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.

And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers ,and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another. In what place therefore ye hear the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither unto us: our God shall fight for us."

Trumpets are messages throughout the church age to prepare the elect for the coming of Jesus in the latter reign church

Matt.24:31 .

I Cor 15:52 last trump.

I thes 4:16 last message of church age.

This is a type of Jesus Christ becoming our High Priest to be a propituation for our sins of humanity

Hebrews 9

Heb. 2:17 "Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people."

Heb.3:1 "Wherefore , holy brethren , partakers of the heavenly calling , consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession , Jesus Christ."

Ps.19:6 "His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof." Zach 6:13 "Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory , and shall sit and rule upon his throne ; and he shall be a priest upon his throne ;and the counsel of peace shall be between them both."

Dan. 9:27 "And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week; and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease , and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate , even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate."

According to these scriptures Jesus Christ is our High Priest who took the golden censer In behind the second vail.

Ps.122 "I was glad when they said unto me , Let us go into the house of the LORD. Our feet shall stand within thy gates ,O, Jerusalem. Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together ; Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD , unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD. For there are set thrones of judgment , the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem ;they shall prosper that love thee.

Jesus brought the word of God to men---- Rev 8:6 "And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound." Jesus though his personal ministry prophesied of all ages of church age. Rev 8:7 "The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood , and they were cast upon the earth; and the third part of trees was burnt up ,and all green grass was burnt up."

Judgment of Natural Israel to be as other Gentile nations Isaiah 5--

Preachers of the old law followed Pauls ministry as in

Acts 14:19 "And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium , who persuaded the people and , having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city ,supposing he had been dead." and stirred up cities against his ministry --

Gal 4:25 --destroyed his works (churches, ships) among gentiles. Spiritually killing new born Christians (creatures of the sea)

II Cor 5:17

I Thes 2:15-16 "Therefore if any man be in Christ,he is a new creature, old things are past away ;behold, all things are become new."

Tit 1:11 "Whose mouths must be stopped ,who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake." Rev 8:10-11 "And the third angel sounded ,and there fell a great star from heaven , burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of water ;And the name of the star was called Wormwood;and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter." AD 60 Star—minister fell from Heaven --

Rev.2:5 "Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place , except thou repent."

Gal 1:8 "But though we , or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you ,let him be accursed."

II Tim 2:18 "Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some." Hymenaeus and Philetus preached resurrection already past over-throwing faith of many --

Rev 8:12 "And the forth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; and the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise." AD 75 first part, the sun smitten—

Matt 24:2 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven ,and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken;"

Ps 84:11 "For the LORD God is a sun and LORD will give grace and glory; no good thing will he uphold from them that walk uprightly."

Matt 17:2 "As was transfigured before them; and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light ."

Shows the divine nature of glorified state of Jesus—

John 17:5 -"And now ,O Father , glorify thou me with thy own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was."

Which Moses wanted to see--

But is the Promise to overcomers--

James 1:17--"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above ,and cometh down from the Father of lights ,with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." Phil 3:9-14 "And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is though the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith ; That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection ,and the fellowship of his sufferings ,being made comformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect; but I follow after , if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended ;but this one thing I do , forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I must press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." which was preached

I John 3:1-3-- "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God; therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be ;but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure ."

II Pet 1:4 "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises; that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world though lust."

Matt 5:8 "Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God."

But the message of perfection being preached was being covered by less purposeful men who desired to make show in flesh—

Gal 6:12-- "As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ."

II Pet 1:19 "We have also a sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and a day star arise in your hearts;"

Rev 8:13 "And I beheld, and heard an angel flying though the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabitors of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!"

AD 90 Latter part of John’s ministry

Rev 1-19- "Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are , and the things which shall be hereafter:"

Showing and preparing the church for the dispensations of church to come—

Three woes are same as the three beasts of Revelation 13. Which came to power because of human "reasons".

II Pet 2:2 "And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be spoken of."

Luke 5:21-22 "And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone? But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answering said unto them, What reason ye in

your hearts ?"

II Cor 11:3 "But I fear, lest any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve though his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ." Human reason replaced apostles doctrine—rod of God being replaced by rod of mans reason—measure of God replaced by man’s measure--

Rev 11:1-2 "And there was given me a reed like unto a rod; and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the alter, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles; and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months."

Isa 5:14 "Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure; and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it." Rev 9:1 "And the fifth angel sounded and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth; and to him was given the key to the bottomless pit ." AD 105 + 150 yrs = 233+1260 yrs = 1515

Jude :13--

"Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars , to wham is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever."

II Thes 2:3-12 "Let no man deceive you by any means; for that day shall not come ,except there come a falling away first ,and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God ,showing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that , when I was yet with you,I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work; only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall the Wicked be revealed ,whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth; and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming; Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all decievableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;because they recieved not the love of the truth ,that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie; That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

Prov 22:14 "The mouth of strange women is a deep pit; he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein."

Rev 2:20 "Not withstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou suffereth that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and the eat things sacrificed unto idols. Isa 24:22 "And they shall be gathered togather,as prisoners are gathered in the pit ,and shall

II Thes 2:3-8 "Let no man deceive you by any means ; for that day shall not come , except there come a falling away first , and that man of sin be revealed , the son of perdition ; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God , or that is worshipped ; so that he as God sitteth in the Temple of God , shewing himself that he is God . Remember ye not , that , when I was yet with you , I told you these things ? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time . For the mystery of iniquity doth already work ; Only he who now letteth will let , until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed , whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth , and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming .

II John : 9-10" I wrote unto the church ; but Diotrephes , who loveth to have the preeminence among them , receiveth us not . Wherefore , if I come , I will remember his deeds which he doeth , prating against us with malicious words ; and not content therewith , neither doth he himself receive the brethren , and forbiddeth them that would , and casteth them out of the church . "

II John : 7 " For many deceivers are entered into the world , who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh . This is a deceiver and an antichrist ."

I John 4 :1-3"Beloved , believe not every spirit , but try the spirits whether they are of God ; because many false prophets are gone out into the world . Hereby know ye the Spirit of God ; Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come In the flesh is of God ; And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh and is not of God; and this is that spirit of antichrist , whereof ye have heard that it should come ; and even now already is in the world ."

II Pet 2:1 "But there were false prophets also among the people , even as there shall be false teachers among you , who privily shall bring in damnable heresies , even denying the Lord that bought them , and bring upon themselves swift destruction ."

Especially The Ministry that followed John such as Clement who saw the reasonableness of structuring a government of church patterned after Roman government structure .

Smoke—

Devine nature of Christ—air = Holy Ghost—true spirit darkened by reason that produced good natural , not spiritual , people Matt 24: 29 , Jude : 3- 4 , out of the spirit of Man’s Government for church men progressed to using civil power ( of locust Joel 2: 25 )

Joel 2:25" And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten , the cankerworm , and the caterpillar , and the palmerworm , my great army which I sent among you."

Church rebelled against apostolic authority

III John :9 " I wrote unto the church ; but Diotrephes , who loveth to have the preeminence among them , receiveth us not ."

Ezek 2:6 "And thou , son of man , be not afraid of them neither be afraid of their words , though briers and thorns be with thee , and thou dost dwell among scorpions ; be not afraid of their words , nor be dismayed at their looks , though they be a rebellious house ."

Luke 10:19" Behold , I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions , and over all the power of the enemy ; and nothing shall by any means hurt you . "

We see seven churches very much affected by this spirit—but some saints preserved because of seal of God in their foreheads—

Rev 3:10 "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience , I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation , which shall come upon all the world , to try them that dwell upon the earth ."

Rev 9:5 " And to them it was given that they should not kill them , but that they should be tormented five months ; and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion , when he striketh a man."
 
 

AD 105 - 255

I Cor 15 : 55 "O death , where is thy sting ? O grave , where is thy victory ?"

Rebellion began to come stronger into church for next 150 years ( (5 x 30 days ) the church still preached overcoming ( dying ) but enough false doctrine , order , ect. , allowed sting of death to operate—men seek death .

Col 3:5" Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth ; fornication , uncleanness , inordinate affection , evil concupiscence , and covetousness , which is idolatry."

Ro 6:6" Knowing this , that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed , that henceforth we should not serve sin ."

Phil 2:8 "And being found in fashion as a man , he humbled himself , and became obedient unto death , even the death of the cross ."

Matt 16:24"Then said Jesus unto his disciples , If any man will come after me , let him deny himself , and take up his cross , and follow me ."

Rev 14 :13 " And I heard a voice from saying unto me , Write , Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth ; Yea , saith the Spirit , that they may rest from their labours ; and their works do follow them ."

Shows civil government working with church government taking shape of " Pale " Horse"

Rev 6:8 "And I looked and behold a pale horse ;and his name that sat on him was Death , and Hell followed with him . And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth , to kill with sword , and with hunger , and with death , and with the beast of the earth ."

Men began to crown each other

Rev 11:10" And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them , and make merry , and shall send gifts to one another ; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth ."

Face as sun (Jesus ) gospel changed to present man’s face(Order) not hope of glory-

Hair of women—

Rev 2:20 "Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee , because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel which calleth herself a prophetess , to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication , and to eat things sacrificed unto idols ."

Fell from righteousness of God to righteousness of Rome which finally ended in Pale Horse authority of civil army empowering church to operate .

Rev 9:11 "And they had a king over them , which is the angel of the bottomless pit , whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon , but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon ."

King of Bottomless Pit-- 255 AD set Bishop of Rome as doctrinal head of church
