The Seventh Seal

Back here again! This time let's take a look at the Seventh Seal mentioned in Revelation of the Holy Scriptures (as revealed to Saint John while he was in prison)

The First Trumpet

"... A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up." - Revelation 8:7

The Second Trumpet

"... a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed." - Revelation 8:9

The Third Trumpet

" the name of  the star is Wormwood (blazing like torch that fell from the sky). A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter." Revelation 8:11

The Fourth Trumpet

"The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them turned dark, - A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night." - Revelation 8:12

The Fifth Trumpet

"... a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth... given the key to the shaft of Abyss. When he opened the Abyss, smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and sky were darkened by the smoke from the Abyss. 

And out of the smoke locust came down upon the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of  the earth. 

They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.

They were not given power to kill them, but only to torture them for five moths". - Revelation 9: 1-5

"The locust looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces." - Revelation 9:7

"They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon." - Revelation 9:11

The Sixth Trumpet

"It is said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, 'Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates."

And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.

The number of mounted troops were two hundred millions. I heard this number." - Revelation 9:14-16

"And the rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshipping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood - idols that cannot see or hear or walk."

"Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts." - Revelation 9:20,21

The Seventh Trumpet

The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said:

"The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever."

"And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worship God, saying: 

We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and have begun to reign.

The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great - and for destroying those who destroy the earth."

Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within his tempe was seen the Ark of his Covenant. And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a great hailstorm. -

Revelation 11: 16-19

"A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. - Revelation 12:1

"She gave birth to a son, a male child who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne."- Revelation 12:5

"And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven."

"The great dragon was hurled down - that ancient serpent called the devil or Satan, who leads the world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him." - Revelation 12:7-9
