Greeting

I, @elPastor, greet the blockchain church. God is the one who lives, the one who has always lived and the one who is to come. I desire that God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, love you and give you your peace.

Introduction

The seventh seal of chapter 8 of Revelation is the prelude to the seven trumpets of God's judgments on earth that are about to sound in the days of the Great Tribulation. The judgments announcing the seven trumpets respond to the prayer of the saints according to the cry of the martyrs in Revelation 6: 9-10. In this sense, we will focus on the present message everything related to the first four trumpets of the Judgments of God in all those who will remain for the world government of the Antichrist.

It is important to refer to the fact that the first four trumpets will produce disasters and destruction over nature and the three remaining trumpets will bring direct judgments about man.

The present message is aimed at creating expectations in the church of the chain of blocks to produce motivation for greater consecration and communion with our God, so that the things that surround us do not distract in our service to the eternal God.

Blessings for all. Amen.

First trumpet: Disaster in the vegetation.

"The first angel sounded, and there was hail and fire mingled with blood, which were thrown down upon the earth, and a third of the trees were burned, and all the green grass was burned."
Revelation 8: 7

We all know that what is written in the word of God has been left for our good; so that we can lead a life of expectation in relation to the sacred matters of God and the immense love that God has for humanity.

Literally, God brought to Egypt and Pharaoh ten plagues to punish their rebellion, pride and idolatry. In the same way, all these plagues reflected in the book of Exodus from chapter 7 to chapter 10, show that all these judgments were real and represented the liberation of the people of Israel from the hands of the Egyptians.

This reflection leads us to believe that the judgments of God announced in the seven trumpets are true and true as God revealed it to the apostle John on the Island of Patmos.

For this reason, what is expressed in this first trumpet, indicates that the third part of the earth and its vegetation will suffer devastating consequences that in one way or another will affect the lives of men and women who, due to lack of attention and indifference to affairs. Of God, we must go through the Great Tribulation. This implies that the natural environment of humanity will suffer strong consequences.

Second trumpet: Disaster in the seas.

"8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and like a great mountain burning with fire, he was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood.9 And a third of the living creatures that were in the sea died, and the The third part of the ships was destroyed. "
Revelation 8: 8-9.



Source

In the book of Exodus 7: 14-25, there we find that the first plague that the Lord brought upon Egypt was to turn the waters into blood. If God did it at that moment, can not he bring this same judgment as indicated by the second trumpet?

Some scholars say that this trumpet is just something symbolic.
God told the apostle John about the entire message of the book of Revelation: Write because these are true words of God, Revelation 19: 9.

A great mountain that burns in the fire suggests the shape of a volcano whose ashes pollute the sea. The mortality of living things in the oceans will be so immense that it would cause diseases and epidemics, so much that the ships will suffer enormous damages and all this would affect the trade between the nations and cause a chaos in the world economy.

Dear reader, everything you can imagine that would happen with the third part of the sea turned into blood, is valid in the interpretation of this judgment.

Third trumpet: Disaster in the waters.

"10 The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and fell on the third part of the rivers, and on the springs of water, 11 and the name of the star is wormwood. Absinthe, and many men died because of these waters, because they became bitter. "
Revelation 8: 10-11.

The pure waters are polluted. Wormwood is a bitter herb, sometimes poisonous. However, the word in this text says that all the waters we need for life and personal hygiene are all contaminated; and because of this many men will die during the period of the Great Tribulation.

Let's escape brothers, from these terrible things that will come. Let's look at the giver of life. The world and its desires pass, plus the one that does the will of God, will remain forever. Amen.

Fourth trumpet: Disaster in the heavens.

"12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and the third part of the sun, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars were struck, so that a third part of them was darkened, and there was no light in it. The third part of the day, and also of the night: 13 And I looked, and I heard an angel flying in the midst of heaven, saying aloud: Woe, woe, woe, of them that dwell on the earth. the other trumpet touches that the three angels are about to sound. "
Revelation 8: 12-13.

These cosmic convulsions are partial clashes that will occur during the 7-year period of the Great Tribulation, which are totally different from what will happen at the end of this period, in which, in addition to stars that fall from the sky, the Moon will become blood. and a great earthquake will occur, is what the Lord Jesus announced at the time of his coming to earth, which will be a sign in which each eye will see the Son of Man come among the clouds with the heavenly armies to hurt all nations and end the wickedness of men Matthew 24: 29-31.

The judgments of God are true. The seven trumpets are judgments similar to the plagues that God brought upon Egypt when Israel was a slave. God punishes evil. The church should not be trusted that these judgments announced in the seven trumpets are symbolic. Look because we do not know the day or the time. Blessings for all the saints in the chain of blocks.

Sort:  

@elpastor the touch of the trumpets of God is an evidence of his sovereignty to alert those who are unnoticed and sleeping spiritually because each one of them represents with reverent expectation the judgment of God and the fulfillment of his purpose, besides announcing a severe judgment in response to the prayers of the saints
Let's watch and be attentive to the revelations of recent times.

Amen, apostle. Excellent reflection. Blessings
