The Seven Trumpets of Revelation Bible Trumpet Prophecy
Let's continue our journey shall we? I hope you are reading along with the End Times study in the Bible and checking the Scripture, so you will know the Truth. As you recall we have been studying the Seven Seals in the Book of Revelation and how they compare to the Olivet Discourse which is an End Times sermon that Jesus gave us. We know now that they match very well as He is the Author of both.
We had just read of the events that will occur up to and including the sixth Seal.
We will begin our, What are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation journey from that point. Immediately after the 6th Seal,
there is an event that occurs which we will look into on this page.
We will pick up where we left off in the Book of Revelation Revelation,
Chapter 7, we find 144,000 people being sealed with the seal of
God.
Revelation 7:1-4
1 And after these things I saw four Angels standing on the
four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that
the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any
tree.
2 And I saw another Angel ascending from the east, having
the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the
four Angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the
trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and
there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all
the tribes of the children of Israel.
The Bible is clear that these 144,000 people are all virgin, Jewish,
Christian males.
Revelation 14:1-5
1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion,
and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his
Father's name written in their foreheads.
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many
waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of
harpers harping with their harps:
3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne,
and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn
that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were
redeemed from the earth.
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for
they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb
whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the
firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are
without fault before the throne of God.
This seal will protect these Jewish Men from the events that will be
occurring on Earth. It sounds like the mark that God gave Cain after
Cain has slain Abel and had been punished.
Genesis 4:13-15
13 And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater
than I can bear.
14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face
of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a
fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that
every one that findeth me shall slay me.
15 And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth
Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set
a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
Remember this Bible Trumpets Point of Interest ... So, we have these Jewish men receiving the seal of protection from God. Who are these people? You will learn more about these individuals as we continue our search for answers to What Are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation are all about.
After this, a large number of people, this time they are of all races, and they will suddenly show up in Heaven. When asked, an Angel said that these people are Christians which were taken out of the Great Tribulation that was occurring on Earth.
Revelation 7:9-17
9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great
multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and
kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and
before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their
hands;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our
God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and
about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on
their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and
thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for
ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What
are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence [from where]
came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to
me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and
have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve
him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne
shall dwell among them.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more;
neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall
feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Remember in the Olivet
Discourse study (Page 1), it spoke of this Great Tribulation.
As we read along partaking of the Bible Trumpets ... Then it goes to the
7th Seal. This tells us that this group of Christians that are
taken from the Earth are taken in between the 6th and 7th Seal.
As you recall, the 6th Seal spoke of the sun and moon getting dark
and the stars falling, as it did in the Olivet Discourse, so ... Let
us return to the Olivet Discourse to see if there is mention of a
Christian Rapture or Christians being taken from Earth to Heaven.
In the Olivet Discourse it speaks of the sun and moon turning dark
and the stars falling, so we will look at Verse 29 and start from
there.
Matthew 24:29
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be
darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall
fall from Heaven, and the powers of the Heavens shall be shaken.
It says that there was a sign in the Heavens and that mankind would
mourn and see Jesus coming in the clouds, which is very similar to
the 6th Seal in the Book of Revelation.
Revelation 6:15-17
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the
rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every
bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the
rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and
hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the
wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of His wrath is come; and who shall
be able to stand?
Keep in mind this Truth:
Psalms 46:2
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though
the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
The Seven Trumpets Bible Warning
What Are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation?
Immediately after this, we see in the Olivet Discourse that Jesus has
His Angels gather His elect (Christians) from the four corners of the
Earth.
Matthew 24:31
And He shall send His Angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and
they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one
end of Heaven to the other.
It goes on to say that two will be in the field and that one will be
taken and the other left behind. This event is known as a Rapture.

If you choose to read the Rapture study, please choose to return to
the Seven Trumpets Bible study afterward to continue our journey into
the End Times as we learn what are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation
that are yet to come.
As we continue our journey, let us return to the Book
of Revelation, Chapter 8.
Revelation 8:1-5
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.
3 And another Angel came and stood at the altar, having a
golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he
should offer it with the prayers of all Saints upon the golden altar
which was before the throne.
4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the
prayers of the Saints, ascended up before God out of the Angel's hand.
5 And the Angel took the censer, and filled it with fire
of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and
thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
This ends the Seven Seals and prepares for ... The Seven Trumpets of
Revelation.
What Are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation Time Out ... Let us keep in mind that the author of the Book of Revelation is using symbols from his time period to describe what he sees in the vision he had of things from our time period ... So, be imagining what he may be referring to in some of the descriptions he gives and symbols he uses in the Bible and shared in the Seven Trumpets Bible study.
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.
Hail, fire and blood are cast to Earth and ⅓ of trees and
grass on Earth are burned.
Revelation 8:8-9
8 And the second Angel sounded, and as it were a great
mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the
third part of the sea became blood;
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the
sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were
destroyed.
A great mountain of fire is cast into the ocean and ⅓ of
oceans on earth become as blood and everything in or on the oceans in
that ⅓ of the earth's oceans ... Die.
Revelation 8:10-11
10 And the third Angel sounded, and there fell a great
star from Heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the
third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the
third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the
waters, because they were made bitter.
A great star falls upon ⅓ of the rivers and fountains of
waters and the waters become poison and many will die when they drink
the waters.
Revelation 8:12-13
12 And the fourth Angel sounded, and the third part of
the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and
the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them
was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and
the night likewise.
13 And I beheld, and heard an Angel flying through the
midst of Heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the
inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet
of the three Angels, which are yet to sound!
⅓ of the sun, moon and stars are smitten so that they do not shine for ⅓ part of the day. Since ⅓ of the oceans, rivers, trees, grass, sun, moon and stars are affected. It seems that during these 4 Trumpets ... ⅓ of the world is destroyed by objects that come from the sky. Many Bible scholars think it is nuclear missiles. Some think it is a comet, meteor or asteroid.
Again ... Remember as we sojourn along in the Seven Trumpets Bible study that the person who had this vision from our Lord, wrote of what he saw in 90 A.D. where he was not familiar with missiles or other weapons of modern technology and could only use terms that he was familiar with to describe his vision for us. So he used ... "hail - great mountain of fire - great falling stars."
The Seven Trumpets of Revelation tidbit of Truth ... Despite what it is that falls from the sky ... It destroys ⅓ of the Earth. That is a large portion of the Earth ... But, which ⅓ part of Earth? You may find it strange that many nations are mentioned in End Times prophecy, from Israel to Ethiopia to Iraq to Iran to China and so many more. However, United States, Canada and Mexico are not and that is about ⅓ of the earth. Unless United States is to be the Antichrist empire which many believe it is as we use peace as a means of spreading democracy which some deem as conquering.
But, Scripture has shared clues about Antichrist empire which suggest that his empire will be in the Middle East lower parts of Russia area which puts the United States out. We will discuss this a little later in more detail as we delve back into our what are the seven trumpets of Revelation quest for truth.
The next thing we read is:
Woe, Woe, Woe ...
To those on Earth, due to the next 3 Seven Trumpets of Revelation.
Revelation 9:1-11
1 And the fifth Angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from
Heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless
pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a
smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun
and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth:
and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have
power.
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the
grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but
only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them,
but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was
as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not
find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses
prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like
gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth
were as the teeth of lions.
9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of
iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of
many horses running to battle.
10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were
stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.
11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of
the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but
in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
A star (which is sometimes used as a symbol for Angels, in the Book
of Revelation) falls from Heaven, and he is given the key to
the bottomless pit which he opens and out come locusts which
are given power to hurt those without the Mark of God on their
foreheads.
What are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation Point of Interest: Remember earlier in the Seven Trumpets Bible trek
that the first group of Christians were taken to Heaven between the
6th and 7th Seal, but, those 144,000 Jewish males that were
given the Mark of God on their foreheads are still on earth during
the Great Tribulation as well as other Christians that were
chosen and/or chose to stay.
Let us return to the Bible Trumpets voyage ... These locusts are instructed to torment men for 5 months and men will wish they could die, but will not be allowed to, as they must suffer. These locusts have the shape of a horse, prepared for war, with crowns of gold, faces of men, hair of women, teeth of a lion, iron breastplates, loud wings and scorpion-like tails. (Many believe these entities are evil spirits that were in Hell.)
Wow ... These Bible Trumpets rascals sound like some creepy entities. They have a king which is the Angel of the bottomless pit whose name
is Abaddon and Apollyon, which means "destroyer."
One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
This Scripture is referring to the two remaining Trumpets. We will
continue heading forward into the future in the Seven Trumpets Bible
study asking what are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation.
Revelation 9:13-21
13 And the sixth Angel sounded, and I heard a voice from
the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
14 Saying to the sixth Angel which had the trumpet, Loose
the four Angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four Angels were loosed, which were prepared
for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the
third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two
hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that
sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and
brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions;
and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the
fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of
their mouths.
19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails:
for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them
they do hurt.
20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these
plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they
should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass,
and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their
sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
The description we have been given in symbols of John's time sounds like weapons of war. But, what type of weapons? What about this Cloning concept? Is not mankind researching this technology and maybe even secretly cloning humans now? There is talk of creating cloned entities to fight wars. They may even get a little craftier and crazier and create cloned soldiers or even a robotic army.
And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts ...
Six of the seven Trumpets of Revelation have occurred up to this point. What are the Seven Trumpets of Revelation? They are but one sign of a timeline of prophetic events which are on our horizon. Woe to those still on earth due to what comes next in the Bible Trumpets ... It is the Seventh Trumpet. Let us find out what happens next, in our traveling into the End Times.
