Shalom!
^ The Bible is God’s infallible Word. And God is wiser than us humans.
Someone may believe that the best way to believe in God and his Word is the belief that one should live without explanations. You will automatically see over time what everything means. In contrast, God's revelation speaks that He will reveal the secret and the future to his prophets, Amos 3:1-15, <Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, …. 2. “Only you have I known from all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.” …. …. …. 7. Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets. …. …. “…. 15. I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses of ivory will also perish, and the great houses will come to an end,” declares the LORD.>
Prayer of them who take care of the servants of the Lord Jesus, even now {Mat. 24:45 – 46(-51)}, Bert
¤ I have my own explanations, too. But I'm not the prophet of the end time, so I don't want to lock my own thoughts. I try to be ready to listen to other believers. The Book of Revelation states, that the secret of God would get its fulfillment in the time of the seventh messenger/angel, Rev. 10:7, <But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound {the} trumpet, the mystery of God shall also be completed, according to the gospel {that} He declared to His servants the prophets.>
Who would this messenger/angel be? Could he be the prophet of our end times (cf. 1d§1-3)?
¤ He would be a messenger on earth. Just as an angel is seen a little earlier, who came down from heaven and placed his right foot on the sea and his left on the earth (Rev. 10:1-2).
And on earth this messenger blows the trumpet.
¤ There are also trumpet angels in heaven. But he cannot be one of them, because in heaven they received trumpets (Rev. 8:2).
If he is one of them, he should have died first. That would be an impossible combination.
