The seven angels coming out of the temple
Because, I believe, the entire Revelation is now coming together, I shall revisit Chapters 15 and 16. As time has moved on since I could measure the ‘temple’ and the ‘altar’, the meaning of certain verses has now become clearer.
No mistake
The linking up of the words of Revelation, bring the chapters of Revelation together and verify meaning. When same words are used in different chapters, they seem to substantiate the time measures. The reason for this, it seems, is that ultimately there can be no mistake as to where we are in the sequence of events of the end time.
The final wrath of God
Rev. 15:1“And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.”
I believe “another sign in heaven” confirms the Venus-Jupiter conjunction of 27 August 2016. It is “another sign” because the other sign is the sign of Rev 12:1 which is the star
formation of 20 September 2017.
Confirmation
This sign, mentioned here in Rev.15:1, is of the greatest significance because it is the beginning of the “forty and two months” (Rev 11:2) of Revelation and because the seven angels who pour the seven vials come ‘out of the temple’ (Rev.15:6), I believe, confirms the time of the measuring of the temple, and the final pouring of the seven vials.
The temple has been measured, therefore the seven angels come “out of the temple”.
Therefore, I believe confirmation that the last seven vials are finally poured out on the earth after 27 February 2020, the end of the “forty and two months” (Rev 11:2)).
The wrath of God
As I have shown in recent posts, we are I believe, also living after the measure of “altar” Rev 11:1 and 3; Rev.14:18-20 and in the time of the wrath of God. Therefore, Revelation is confirming the time after the measure of “temple” (after 27 February 2020) is also the time of the wrath of God.
“Sea of glass” indicates a vision of heaven. (See also Rev 4:6)
Rev 15:2 “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.”
Revelation stresses in Rev.15:2 that in the soul’s struggle between good and evil (“sea of glass mingled with fire”) in the last days man must understand the power of the beast, his image, his mark, and the number of his name. God wishes man to spiritually overcome the very strong pull of evil in the last days in order to stand ready for the life beyond death (‘’stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God”).
By the time the temple can be measured, that is the time 27 August 2016 to 27 February 2020 the beast coming up out of the earth and the beast coming up out of the sea would be understood.
Rev 15:4 “Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
5 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:
6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.”
The repetition of the word “temple” in verses 4 and 5
I believe Revelation distinguishes and reveals in the above two verses that the measure of the temple on earth, that is the two thousand years and up to 27 February 2020, that is the end of the “forty and two months” (Rev.11:1 “Rise and measure the temple of God”), is ultimately the measure of the temple of heaven. Symbolically those that are within the temple on earth (part of the body of Christ) will transform to be part of the temple of heaven, the New Jerusalem.
Came out of the temple
I believe that the words “the seven angels came out of the temple” (Rev.15:6) reveals that after the time of the measuring of the temple from the time of the Venus- Jupiter conjunction on 27 August 2016 until 27 February 2020, we shall understand the last seven plagues and how they relate to the present time. (I have in previous posts indicated this. I shall now revisit the casting of the seven vials in order to relate what I now understand.)
Rev 15:7 “And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.”
One of the four beasts
In Rev 4:6-7 we are told that there are four beasts around the throne of God.
Rev. 4:6 “And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.”
One of these beasts gave the seven vials to the seven angels. We know that the entire Revelation, chapter 16 has to happen before any man can enter the temple of heaven.
Chapter 16
As these plagues and happenings in Chapter 16 still have to fully come about, Revelation seems to reveal, through the repetition of words in other chapters why these evoked the wrath of God. I believe these plagues are finally to happen now because it is the time beyond the measure of “temple”, that is after 27 February 2020.
Rev. 16:1 “And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.”
I believe that the word “earth” here relates to those misled by the beast coming up out of the earth. The noisome and grievous sore likely relates to the present world-wide appearance of monkey pox.
Rev. 16: 3 “And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.”
I believe that because of the word “sea” and the word “soul”, Revelation reveals destruction of those misled by the beast coming up out of the sea.
Rev 16:4 “And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.”
Verse 4 may symbolically relate to illness from contaminated water. This is substantiated by the following verses and the words of the “angel of the waters”.
Rev. 16:5 “And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.”
Here I have to refer back to Rev 8:10-11. The sounding of the third trumpet.
Rev.8:10-12 “And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell on the third part of the rivers and upon the fountains of water. 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.”
In the understanding of the third angel sounding the trumpet, that I believe reveals man’s quest for electric and nuclear power (“burning as it were a lamp” and “Wormwood” means Chernobyl), it seems that in the time to come when God will destroy those who destroy the earth. (Rev.11:18) “And should destroy them that destroy the earth” - it may relate to contamination of the waters by scientific discovery.
Revelation ultimately links the pouring of the vials with the Fall of Babylon.
Rev 16:6 “For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
The final fall of Babylon, the great city
Note: Revelation here connects the time of this happening to the final fall of Babylon.
From the repetition of the words “the blood of the saints and prophets” in Rev. 18:24, this bowl of wrath is cast in the time of the final Fall of Babylon.
Rev.18:24 “And in her were found blood of prophets, and of saints and all that were slain upon the earth.”
Rev. 16:7 “And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.”
Out of the altar
I believe that the words spoken here by the angel out of the altar is extremely important because at this point Revelation confirms that also the ‘altar’ has been measured (Rev.11:1-3). It is in the time after 6 March 2022.
The pouring of the fourth vial
Rev.16:8 “And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.”
These verses may relate to scientific discovery involving the sun or extreme heat relating to climate change.
Rev.16:10 “And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.”
Further plagues are indicated.
Rev.16:12 “And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.”
Like frogs
I believe that this vial can be understood through the knowledge that the year 1956 and the cloning of frogs relate to the words “give life” in Rev.13:15. It seems man’s expertise has gone beyond that which God regards as the destruction of the earth (Rev.11:18) and the nations are drawn to gather to Armageddon.
Rev.16:14 “For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.”
Blessed is he
Rev.16:15 “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”
I have shown on this Forum that I believe that the words “Blessed is he” connects to Dan.12:12-13 and the time of one thousand, three hundred five and thirty days.
Dan. 12:12-13 “Blessed is he that waiteth and cometh the to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shall rest and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.”
Rev.16:16 “And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.”
The casting of the seventh vial
Rev.16:17 “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.”
Note the words “it is done”. I believe that these words connect with Rev. 10:7 “the mystery of God should be finished”, and the time of the sounding of the seventh trumpet.
Rev 16:18 “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.
19 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.”
Also the pouring of the seventh vial connects to the Fall of Babylon
It seems that the final fall of Babylon (Rev.18:19) also relates to the great earthquake. This it seems is confirmed by the word “desolate” in Rev.18:19 and Ezekiel 27:9.
Rev.18:19 “And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! For in one hour is she made desolate.”
Ezekiel 27:9 “For thus sayeth the Lord God; When I shall make thee a desolate city. Like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and the great waters shall cover thee.”
Rev.16:20 “And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.”
The words of Rev.16:20 connect to Rev. 6:14. I believe connection by the repetition of words is ultimately how Revelation brings its entire message together. In this way we can finally be prepared for the chronology of the last signs.
Rev.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.”
Great hail
To conclude for now, it should be noted that the words “great hail” are repeated in Rev.11:19. It seems therefore that the third woe (Rev.11:14-19) concludes at about the time of the casting of the final bowl of wrath.
