The 7^th Trumpet and 7^th Vial

The Last Trumpet Of God:

Lo! Behold and See, I show you a silent mystery and secret; We shall not all sleep or slumber, but we all, everyone, shall be changed and made different. In a moment, in an indivisible atom of time, in the instant and twinkling jerk of the eye, at a side glance; at the farthest and final, latter and last, the ends of and the latter end of the uttermost, at the sound of the blast of a trumpet; for this reason, the dead shall be raised and aroused to be wakened to an un-decaying essence and an incorruptible immortality and we all shall be changed and made different. I Corinthians 15:51-52.

For the Lord, the One in Supreme Authority, the Controller and Master, Himself, shall descend from heaven with a shout and a cry of incitement, with the tone of voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of the very exceeding God and the dead in Christ, the Anointed, shall rise first. Then and afterwards, we who are alive and remain, and survive; at the same time shall be seized; catch away and caught up; plucked and pulled; taken by force, abruptly and hastily, with suddenness and quickness; together with them in the clouds to meet, with a claim for oneself, with a friendly encounter, the Lord, the One in Supreme Authority, the Controller and Master, in the blowing air and so shall we ever more and always be with the Lord, the One in Supreme Authority, the Controller and Master. Wherefore and thus therefore, call near to comfort one another with these words of reasoning and subject of thought.  I Thessalonians 4:16-18.

7^th Trumpet:  And the seventh angel sounded the blast of a trumpet; and there were great and mighty tones of sounds and voices in heaven, saying; The royalty of rule and the realm of the kingdoms of this orderly arrangement of the world, including its’ inhabitants, are become the kingdoms of our Lord and Master, the One in Supreme Authority and of His Christ, the Anointed One; and He shall reign and rule as King forever and ever, as the age of the Messianic period, to the perpetual ages of ages. And the four and twenty elders of the celestial council, who sat before, in the sight and in the presence of the very exceeding God on their seats, fell upon their faces and worshipped Deity; the very exceeding great God and made adoration to Him, Saying, We give thee thanks and express gratitude to Thee, O Lord, Supreme One in Authority, Deity; God Almighty, All-Ruling One, Omnipotent and Absolute, Universal Sovereign, which art Being, and was I, and art to come; because you have taken by force and miraculous power; to thee, thy great and mighty power, and have begun to reign and rule as King. And the nations and the human race of all pagans, are provoked and enraged to anger; and thy justifiable, violent wrath and punishment is come; and the proper time of the dead, that they should be judged and to give payment for service, hire, wages and rewards unto thy slaves, bond servants the prophet, those inspired speakers and to the saints, the set apart ones and them that are in awe and fear thy name, small and great; and should destroy and bring to ruin, causing them to perish, which destroy by morally corrupting  the occupants of the earth and have caused it to become thoroughly rotten. And the temple of Deity; the very exceeding great God; was opened in the abode of heaven and there was seen and appeared in His shrine and temple, the sacred ark of His contract, covenant and testament; and there were bright, glaring, shining lightning; and a tone of sounds, noises, voices and thundering; and an earthquake, a shaking, a commotion and tempest; and exceedingly great, large, mighty hail.  [Rev. 11:15-19].

11:15-19 – 7^th trumpet – announces the time of the judging of the dead and to give rewards to saved souls in the presence of Jesus Christ in the spiritual kingdom, understood as the Rapture and the occurrence of an earthquake and great volcanic hail upon the earth.

07.  This is a massive increase of volcanic eruptions resulting in volcanic bombs being cast out upon the earth. The “great hail” is not hail stones from thunderstorms, but molten rock flying through the air from the towering volcanic eruptions. This “seventh trumpet” announces the Rapture of what few “Saved”- believers have survived thus far. This is the third “Woe” upon the earth.

7^th Vial:  And the seventh angel poured out his broad shallow cup and vial into the blowing air; and there came a great and mighty voice out of the shrine and temple of the sky of heaven, from the abode of God, from the throne of power, saying: “It is done!”  “It hath come!” And there were voices and noises, sounds of a tone; and roaring thunders, and a bright, shining glare, lightning’s; and there was an exceeding great, large and mighty earthquake and earth-shock; a shaking of the ground, a commotion and tempest; such as this, so vast of a magnitude; such as was not since human beings were upon the earth; so mighty an earthquake, and so exceedingly great, large and mighty, so full of power. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the Gentile, heathen and pagan people fell down: and great Babylon, the capital of tyranny, came in remembrance as to recall, to be mindful to punish, before Deity; the very exceeding great God; to give unto her the cupful of the wine of the passionate fierceness and indignation of His wrath.  And every and all; even the whole of  isles and islands fled away and vanished; and the mountains, as lifting itself above the plain, were not  and could not be obtained or found;  and there descended and fell upon human beings,  a great, large and mighty hail out of the sky of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent-like: and human beings blasphemed, defamed and spoke evil of Deity; the very exceeding great God;  because of the plague, stroke and calamity of the hail; for the plague, stroke and calamity thereof was exceeding and vehemently, in high degree, very great; for it was extremely severe and terrible. [Rev.16:17-21]. 

16:17-21 – 7^th plague – the greatest earthquake to ever have occurred since humanity has been on earth will take place in the Jordan river valley, causing the city of Jerusalem to split into three sections and producing a chain reaction of earthquakes, which will cause the cities of the nations of the world to fall into ruin, ending with catastrophic global volcanic activity, developing a single dust cloud encircling the entire planet earth.

Volcanic Hailstorm…  calaza    chalaza  khal'-ad-zah…  Hail:  chalaza khal’-ad-zah to lower (as into a void): to let down from a higher place to a lower; hail. [Greek: chalaza, hard lump, hailstone.]   

Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

Revelation 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.  

Revelation 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, [every stone] about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.  

What is this “hail”?  It is mingled with a substance of a blood red color.  It was cast upon the earth.  It is associated with a third part of the trees being burned up. It is associated with all the green grass being burned up.  It is associated with lightning, a tone of thunder, an earthquake and is great. It fell out of heaven.  It had a tremendous effect upon humanity, because the plague was extremely great.

When the Great Tribulation Period begins, there will be absolutely no doubt as to what this “hail" really is. Just plain and simple: this “hail” will be molten rocks of volcanic “hailstones” that will cast out from the volcanic vents of the earth.

The majority of these events will be along the earths’ tectonic plate boundaries. This “hail” noticeably begins on the 1^st trumpet; it intensifies with the sounding of the 7^th trumpet and becomes “exceeding great” upon the pouring out of the 7^th vial of the wrath of God.

A volcanic bomb is a globe of molten rock (tephra) larger than 65 mm (2.5 inches) in diameter, formed when volcano ejects viscous fragments of lava during an eruption. They cool into solid fragments before they reach the ground. Lava bombs can be thrown many kilometers from erupting vents, and often acquires aerodynamic shapes during their flight. Bombs can be extremely large; the 1935 eruption of Asama in Japan expelled bombs measuring 5-6 meters in diameter up to distances of 600 meters from the vent. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Phase Seven:  7^th Seal, 7^thTrumpet, 7^th Vial

[Rev. 6:17]  For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

[Rev. 11:15 & 19]  And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever. And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

[Rev. 16:17-21] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

This is the last stage of His great wrath and there will be very few people left alive on the earth. This phase begins with an increase in the intensity of volcanic eruptions producing volcanic hail or bombs and finally brings about the greatest earthquake in the history of humanity. It will occur in the Jordan River Valley and will split the city of Jerusalem into three sections. This great earthquake will start a chain reaction of earthquakes throughout the global tectonic plate boundaries, resulting in the destruction the cities of the world and the city of Rome, Italy will be completely destroyed by volcanic fire by the Colli Albani volcano, eventually sinking beneath the earths’ surface and engulf by the Tiber River. This chain reaction will end with great volcanic hail or melting rocks being thrown out upon the unbelieving people of the world during this forty-five day period of the Wrath of God. 

The Great Tribulation of Volcanic Hail

During the Great Tribulation Period, the words, “great hail” are mentioned as occurring on the Seventh Trumpet in Revelation 11:19 and on the Seventh Vial of Wrath in Revelation 16:21.  These two words describe something out of the ordinary.

First, it expresses the idea of being “great.” This is not something typical as if being a thunderstorm.

Second, the “hail” is associated with: [“shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth; lightning and voices and thundering and an earthquake; Rev.11:19.]---[and there were voices and thunders and lightnings and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts and the cities of the nations fell.  And every island fled away and the mountains were not found; every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. Rev. 16:18-21.]

There is a very important question in which we should ask? Is this 7^th trumpet, the last trump as was mentioned by the Apostle Paul concerning the “Rapture” of the saved? It would seem like “common sense”, to assume if there was a “last trump,” then there must be trumpets which have already sounded. Therefore, with just basic “common sense”, how about making a simple determination: The “Rapture” of the saved will be on the “last trump or the seventh trumpet of the seven angels.”

Revelation 8: [1] And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. [2] And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

Revelation 8: [6] And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

Revelation 11: [15] And the seventh angel sounded;

I Corinthians 15: [51] Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

I Thessalonians 4: [16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. [18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

What can we learn from these verses of Scripture and from the following verses in Revelation 11:15-19 and try to make some practical “common sense” of this study.

1.  There are seven angels standing before God.

2.  Apparently, it would be correct to assume, it is God personally who has given atrumpet to each of the seven angels.

3.  The seven angels each have a trumpet and at a certain time period in the future, are ready to sound the trumpet.

4.  The 1^st angel sounds: Revelation 8: [7] The first angel sounded.

5.  The 2^nd angel sounds: Revelation 8: [8] And the second angel sounded.

6.  The 3^rd angel sounds: Revelation 8: [10] And the third angel sounded.

7.  The 4^th angel sounds: Revelation 8: [12] And the fourth angel sounded.

8.  The 5^th angel sounds: Revelation 9: [1] And the fifth angel sounded.

9.  The 6^th angel sounds: Revelation 9: [13] And the sixth angel sounded.

10.  The 7^th angel sounds: Revelation 11: [15] And the seventh angel sounded.

11.  The Apostle Paul is about to reveal a mystery.

12.  Those dead carnal natures of saved souls in the grave are about to be changed.

13.  In a moment of time, as fast as the eye can blink, at the last trump.

14.  A trumpet will sound and the mystery takes place.

15.  The dead are raised from the corruption of the grave and are changed.

16.  The Lord descends from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel and with the trump of God. (What does the Lord do with this trump of God? Is is a new trump or is it a trump already given to one of the angels? Perhaps one of the seven?  Is it a "special trump" for a "special purpose?")

17.  The dead carnal natures of the saved are raised.

18.  The living saved souls are caught up with those previously raised.

19.  They are together with the Lord.

20.  The 7^th angel sounds and there are great voices in heaven making a proclamation.

21. This proclamation declares the coming fact of the kingdoms of this earthly world are about to become under the Kingship of the Lord Jesus Christ.

22.  The nations of the earthly world are angry, because the wrath of God is about to take place.

23.  Before the wrath occurs, there is a time of the judging of the dead and to distribute rewards in the spiritual kingdom.

24.  The purpose of the wrath of God will be to destroy those of humanity who have morally corrupted the earth. (And should destroy them which destroy the earth.) The Greek word for the second English word “destroy” has to do with morality. It can be translated as: and destroy and bring to ruin, causing them to perish, which destroy by morally corrupting the occupants of the earth and have caused it to become thoroughly rotten.

25.  The temple of God is made visible to the Apostle John.

26.  On the earth, there are certain geological events: and there were lightning and voices, and thundering and an earthquake, and great hail.
