Boek Openbaring §8,9,11,15,16, Oordelen en het algemeen: TRUMPETS ARE OPENING
Shalom!
^ I begin to deal with the symbols of the trumpets, what I had done for the first time 2021.6.6. By that time I had looked more closely at the plagues of the bowels and suddenly a possible overall picture had begun to emerge.
I prayed for it and received the answer that dealing with the symbols of the trumpets (and the bowels) was no longer a forbidden subject, as it had been during brother Branham's time (8a§89₁156, Feast of the Trumpets).
^ It meant that the Bodily Presence of the Lord Jesus in the air and next, the return to the Jewish people of the preaching of the Gospel had come extremely near (also 6m§6(8)10, the Seventh Seal)!
Are you ready to meet Him?
^ God takes seriously all people who use His Name. On this base believers and parts of the Book of Revelation can be divided.
The messages addressed to the churches and an understanding of the secrets of the seals are for real believers. For lazy believers and the future people of Israel are the judgments of the trumpets. The bowels are plagues for the nominal Christians and the astray gone anointed Christians.
^ Trumpets and bowels both represent God’s judgments.
In that way can be understood and believed, that one trumpet and one bowel will be executed at the same moment {cf. Rev. 8:5 and 15:7-8; also Rev. 16:17 (9§89₁156)}.
Prayer of them who “stand on the sea of glass” and worship only God (cf. Rev. 15:2-4), Bert
[= “Holy and unblemished believers before God reflect Him as He is {Eph. 1:4(-14); Rev. 4:6},
submitted to the other believers and completely cleansed by the water washing of God's Word (Eph. 5:21-26).”]
6S7T: The seventh and last heavenly trumpet has sounded and the greater tribulation time begins {Rev. 11:15-19 (8e§89₁156)}.
At the same time the raptured believers appear before God’s Throne (Rev. 7:9-17).
7$s1-6T7T: It is the end of the half-hour silence of the Seventh Seal by which the symbols of the trumpets in heaven begin to appear {the next verse, Rev. 8:1, and next verses (also 8a§89₁156)}.
The Laodicean church age is completely over, and the LORD's acceptable year of the last two thousand years has ended {Isa. 61:2a (8e§89₁156)}.
¤ For a longer period the Holy Spirit has not functionated properly in the Christian churches. There were different kinds of warnings (5b§6(8)10, Rev. 3:20; 0b_SumBR, Rev. 18:4).
Severe judgments of God await humanity and those believers who were not ready for the rapture. In addition, all who worship the beast and its image and take its mark on their foreheads or in their hands, will later before God's Judgment Seat be sent straight to hell {7d§67₁14, Rev. 14:(9-) 11 (-13); details of the beast and its image and its mark you will find on the next page}.
¤ Just as God has different kinds of judgments (cf. Mark 12:38-40).
And different kinds of rewards (cf. 1Cor. 3:11-15).

¤ Generally, with the seven-headed beast, God has described seven superpowers, which since the beginning of creation have managed to rule over the entire known world {4a§1317 (Rev. 13 and 17)}.
At its deepest, the beast (and its mark) represents Satan himself (4a§1317, Heb. 8:5, Rev. 13:2b).
¤ Also all kinds of images of the beast had been created. That is to say, personal cults or religions by which people were even more completely ruled. For example, the statue of king Nebuchadnezzar (Dan. 3:1-7).
Such hard physical persecutions are coming for all mankind, what the real believers had voluntarily suffered without worshiping the same beast, or the same kinds of images of the beast, or without taking the same kinds of marks of the beast {Rev. 20:4 (0b_SumBR)}.
¤ The Seal of God is the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, that you are sealed away in the Kingdom of God. And the mark of the beast is to deny It. Some believers had completely died to God’s law, other ones not. God looks for men/women, who sigh and groan over all the abominations committed here (Ezek. 9:1-6; Gal. 2:19-20; Eph. 4:30).
When someone rejects the Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour consciously, Satan will mark him by his ear. He makes him so deaf that he is no longer able to hear the Truth (Heb. 10:26-31).
¤ A person desires to listen to God and to act according to His will, even if it costs his life. Or, he/she worships that beast and becomes a slave to Satan. (Rev. 13:7-10).
God does not want, that there would be slaves. Every seventh year was a year of rejoicing, in which freedom had to be proclaimed to the slaves from His own chosen people. However, if any man did not want to depart, but was content with his slave master, then he had to be brought into the temple, and his ear had to be pierced. It was a sign that he could never get free again. He had to serve his master for the rest of his life (Ex. 21:1-6).
¤
¤ Soon those, who spiritually have already been marked by Satan’s mark, will light-heartedly take the payment card mark of the beast (8d§89₁156).
Fully accepting of the Gospel will further only happen among the people of Israel through the two witnesses (7b§67₁14, Rev. 11:4).
