Shalom!
6T,2W: I continue with the sixth trumpet (and bowl). This period began in 1914, in which a third part of the Jewish people will be killed {9k§89₁156, Rev. 9:(13-) 15 (-21)}.
E.g. during the Second World War, the second woe, as a result of the persecutions of Hitler and Stalin, about 6 million out of 18 million were killed. In this way God gave the Jews throughout the world a longing to return to their former country and establish their own state {Jer. 16:14-16 (7a§67₁14 and 8b§89₁156)}.
However, only God knows the real totals of the Jewish people and when that prophesy will be fulfilled.
^ The purpose of the sixth trumpet, the honoring of God, had not yet been fulfilled (Rev. 9:20-21).
Only after the earthquake and seven thousand more victims the woe of the sixth trumpet will end here (7b§67₁14, Rev. 11:11-14).
7T: Next awaits the purpose of the seventh trumpet, the coming to faith of all Israel.
Prayer of them who want to see the signs of our time (Mat. 16:2-4), Bert
7$s7T: At the end of the Laodicean church age, the seventh trumpet will be blown, what ends the Silence of the Seventh Seal and initiates the rapture {1The. 4:15b (4a§1317); Rev. (7:9-) 8:1 (5d and 6m§6(8)10)}.
It is the beginning of the most important event of the end-time (Rev. 11:15-19), Rev. 11:15b, <“The kingdom of the world of our Lord and of his Christ is come, and he shall reign to the ages of ages.”>
7B,6B: Of the same happening and moment the last bowl speaks (Rev. 16:17-21), Rev. 16:17, <And the seventh {angel} poured out his bowl on the air; and there came out a great voice from the temple of the heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.>
‘It is done’ confirms this major end-time event, as also mentioned under the symbol of the sixth bowl (Rev. 16:12-16), Rev. 16:15, <“Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who remains awake and clothed, ….”>
6S7T6B: On the opposite, on earth begins the day of God's vengeance, the time of the greater tribulation. The wrath of the nations, described under the seventh trumpet (and also 6Bowl), is seen first, and then the Wrath of God (8e§89₁156, Rev. 11:18).
After 1260 days, many nations will attack Jerusalem and Israel, in the battle of Armageddon (Zec. 14:1-2a, 7d§67₁14; Rev. 16:(13-)16, 6k§6(8)10 and 9k§89₁156).
6T7B2W: Then strikes the earthquake of the seventh bowl in Jerusalem, (which is also a part of the second woe-cry, cf. 7e§67₁14; Rev. 11:11---14), Rev. 16:18-19, <And there were lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, such an earthquake, so great. 19. And the great city was {divided} into three parts; and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon was remembered before God to give her the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath.>
Not only will Jerusalem go into three parts, throughout the world the cities will fell.
7T3W: Every country is in a terrible chaos. But the West probably the most of all. Then the ten dictatorial states will suddenly see a good opportunity to attack and burn the system of the prostitute/harlot Great Babylon (9k§89₁156, communism), Rev. 17:16, <And the ten horns that you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot, and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh, and burn her with fire;>
Communism has been God’s weapon. Since 1917 it has been used to impoverish the Western nations. Gradually our factories, our money, our planning, our influence, etc. have been relocated to the countries of communism and their sphere of influence. At the end, we will see the final stage, the third Woe / World War, the by God appointed judgment of the seventh trumpet. It is the fire baptism of the earth (2Pet. 3:7).
¤ Next, the Jewish people will notice that its like-minded states have been destroyed. Now it is totally left alone. With only one chance of escape left. Suddenly it is ready to cry with one mouth for the help of the LORD of the Mount of Olives, Jesus Christ (7d§67₁14, Zec. 13:8---14:4a).
Then everyone whose name is in God’s Book, will be ready to accept the Lord Jesus as Saviour and Leader. In one day a nation is born from above {Isa. 66:8 (7d§67₁14), Dan. 12:1 and John 3:3}.
¤ At the end of 45 days, in great Light and Power, Jesus will appear (7e§67₁14, Dan. 12:11-12/13).
The purpose of the seventh trumpet has been fulfilled, and God's Ark is visible to all the people of Israel (Rev. 11:19).
¤ At the beginning of the greater tribulation time for a big part of the people the Ark of the Covenant was still covered (Rev. 11:2).
Now God's way into the Holy Places has been opened to all (7a§67₁14, Heb. 9:8).
¤
7B3W: God's last bowl judgment is a plague for the so-called Christian nations, that ends with the Third World War, the War of Armageddon (Rev. 16:16, 19b).
At the same time it will be seen that God has begun to protect the citizens of the land of Israel. Blindness, rotting of the flesh, chaos, etc., affect other nations but not the people of Israel (Zec. 12:4 and 14:12-15).
¤ The seas, rivers, islands and mountains will explode by atomic and hydrogen bombs and disappear, and earth's surfaces and atmospheres will be changed completely (Zec. 14:18; Rev. 16:20 and cf. Rev. 21:1b).
Steam and smoke will block the sun's light and heat. A new ice age will start (after the ice ages of the Noachian flood). Hailstones weighing ~114 pounds (= a talent) will begin to rain (Rev. 16:21).
