“And they sang a new song, saying,

“Worthy are you to take the scroll
    and to open its seals,
for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
    from every tribe and language and people and nation,
10 and you have made them “a Kingdom” and “Priests” to our God,
    and they shall reign on the earth.”” – Rev. 5:9,10

“And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne, and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel.” – Rev. 8:3,4


Golden Bowls:

“Golden” refers to holy in heavenly sanctuary, “Bowl” looks like a brain, maybe it refers to “mind” “though”, so the golden bowls are full of prayer of Saints.

They prayer God, “how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”. So God response their prayer, 7 angels pour out 7 golden bowls full of God’s wrath onto the earth.

When the 7th Trumpet is blown, 7 bowls have to pour out, it would be the last.

When 7 bowls have poured out, the 7 Trumpets and the 7 Seals would be finished complete.

The first 4 Seals:

It refers to the 4 events would occurred continuously when they have opened. The first 6 Seals seems had opened at “1st century” and till to the ending.

The 4 Seals are the same pattern with the first 4 Trumpets and the first 4 Bowls. That means when they are opened, the events they represented would occur continuously until the ending.


The first Seal: “And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider (King of kings Jesus) had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer (7 Churches).” – Rev. 6:2

“The souls under the altar” means they are waiting as the“sacrifices” to be the firstfruits offer to God, it would fulfill the covenant made by God with Abraham. The 144000 saints would be the holy nation and the kingdom of priests.

The 5th Seal is like the previous Seals, it opened at “1st century” and till to the end of the Age.


“When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls (7 Churches’ brothers) of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. 

10 They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 

11 Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.” – Rev. 6:9-11


“saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” 

And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the “sons” of Israel…” – Rev. 7:3,4


“As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house (New Jerusalem), to be a holy priesthood, to offer “spiritual sacrifices” (souls under the altar) acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” – 1 Peter 2:4,5

“But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the “sons” of Israel (7 Churches’ brothers – 144000 of heavenly 12 Tribes)…

17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone (as a spiritual house – New Jerusalem), with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.” – Rev. 2:14,17

But he did not cut the birds in half.” – Genesis 15:8-10


“When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces (offer sacrifice to God)” – Genesis 15:17


The 6th Seal:

It seems a great change of the heaven occurred, “The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up”, maybe it means the Devil Satan and his angels (stars) “fell to the earth as the fruit of fig tree”, Devil and his angels were cast out of heaven, the old heaven has passed away.

After passed a long unknown period, about 2000 years now, the wrath of God and the Lamb come. The kings of the earth and the great ones… would hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.

The mountains and islands would be great physically shaken moving in the ending. The 6th Seal is like the previous Seals, it opened at “1st century” and till to the end of the Age.


“When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, 13 and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. 14 The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.” – Rev. 6:12-14

“All the host of heaven (Devil Satan and his angels) shall rot away,
    and the skies roll up like a scroll.
All their host shall fall,
    as leaves fall from the vine,
    like leaves falling from the fig tree (were thrown down to the earth).” – Isariah 34:4


Chapter 7

The four angels:

The four angels are responsible for holding back the 4 destroy winds not to blow on earth, holding back the Great Tribulation – God’s wrath not to come. The purpose is waiting the 144000 saints being sealed complete.

When the 144000 saints are sealed complete, the 7th Seal will be opened, 7 Trumpets would be blown – the 4 destroy winds will be released, the Great Tribulation is come. Not sure these 4 angels are the same 4 angels in Rev 9:14.


“After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.” – Rev. 7:1


“Then I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees (the Great Tribulation), until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” – Rev. 7:2,3


The four Winds:

Refers to 4 destroy winds, 4 winds cover the 4 corners of the earth, that means it is a global destroy winds and refering to the Great Tribulation, it would harm the earth the sea and the trees. It refers to the 7 Trumpets of the 7th Seal.


“After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.  saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” ” – Rev. 7:1,3


“The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.” – Rev. 8:7


“The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood.” – Rev. 8:8


The 144000:

It is the first time mentioned 144000 in chapter 7, 144000 Saints refers to the souls under the altar who are waiting their brothers’ number complete, they are 7 Churches’ brothers – the sons of Israel.

Sons of Israel are 12 heavenly Tribes, each Tribe are 12000, they are Jedah, Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Simeon, Levi, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph and Benjamin.

The 144000 are also called Saints, Sons of God, the Bride of the Lamb – New Jerusalem. 24 elders belong to the 144000 Saints. They would inherit God’s Kingdom, be the kings and priests of the kingdom.


“When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. 11 Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, “until” the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be “complete“, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.” – Rev. 6:9,11


“saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, “until” we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads (the number complete).” And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:” – Rev. 7:3,4


“And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: … 14 …you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the “sons of Israel” (7 Churches’ brothers), so that they might eat food sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality.” – Rev. 2:12,14


The one who conquers (7 Churches’ brothers), I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God (write God’s name on their foreheads) , and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name

13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches” – Rev. 3:12,13


“Then I looked, and behold, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.” – Rev. 14:1


“and they [144000] were singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.” – Rev. 14:3


“And they [24 elders] sang a new song, saying,

“Worthy are you to take the scroll
    and to open its seals,
for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
    from every tribe and language and people and nation,
10 and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
    and they shall reign on the earth.” – Rev. 5:9,10


“Also I saw the souls (7 Churches’ brothers – the souls under the altar of 5th Seal) of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those (the 144000) who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. 

They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.” – Rev. 20:4


“And they [Gog and Magog] marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints (144000 – 7 Churches’ brothers) and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them” – Rev. 20:9


“Let us rejoice and exult
    and give him the glory,
for the marriage of the Lamb has come,
    and his Bride has made herself ready;
it was granted her to clothe herself
    with fine linen, bright and pure”—

for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.” – Rev. 19:7,8


The one who conquers (7 Churches’ brothers – 144000) will have this heritage (God’s Kingdom), and I will be his God and he will be my son.” – Rev. 21:7


A Great Multitude:

Refers to an uncountable group from all peoples nations who are saved from the Great Tribulation because of they in faith of Jesus’ blood, wash their robes in white.

They are different from the 144000, the 144000 is the Bride – the Lamb’s wife, the “a great multitude” is the group who has invited to attend the Lamb’s marriage supper. The Lamb would guide them to water of life.


“After this I looked, and behold, “a Great Multitude” that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”” – Rev. 7:9


“Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” 14 I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” – Rev. 7:13,14


15 Therefore they are before the throne of God,
    and serve him day and night in his temple;
    and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence.

16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore;
    the sun shall not strike them,
    nor any scorching heat.

17 For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd,
    and he will guide them to springs of living water,
and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” – Rev. 7:15-17


“After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of “a Great Multitude” in heaven, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,

    for his judgments are true and just;
for he has judged the great prostitute
    who corrupted the earth with her immorality,
and has avenged on her the blood of his servants.” – Rev. 19:1,2


“Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of “a Great Multitude“, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
    the Almighty reigns.

Let us rejoice and exult
    and give him the glory,
for the marriage of the Lamb has come,
    and his Bride (the 144000) has made herself ready;

it was granted her to clothe herself
    with fine linen, bright and pure”—

for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints (the 144000).” – Rev. 19:6-8


“And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb (a Great Multitude).” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” – Rev. 19:9


White Robe:

“White” refers to the righteousness, “Robe” maybe refers to body or identity. “white robe” seems a difference meaning between “the 144000; the souls under the altar” and “a Great Multitude”.


“the 144000 – the souls under the altar” are described “given them” white robes, but “a Great Multitude” are described they “wash” their robes in the blood of the Lamb made them white. Maybe it means the 144000 saints will be given a new identity – new spirit body, and a Great Multitude just wash their robes into white – they keep existing physical body but given the righteousness identity.


“Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.” – Rev. 6:11


“After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands” – Rev. 7:9


“Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” 14 I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” – Rev. 7:13,14



Chapter 8

The Golden Altar:

It refers to the heavenly golden altar before the Throne of God, the function of altar is offering sacrifices given to God and made judgments. What’s why the souls under the altar of the 5th Seal is waiting their number complete. When their number completed, they would be sacrificed as the firstfruits to God, they would be God’s sons.


“When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. 10 They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?

11 Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longeruntil the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete,…” – Rev. 6:9-11


“Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told, “Rise and measure the temple of God and the altar and those who worship there” – Rev. 11:1


“And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer, and he was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all the saints (souls under the altar) on the golden altar before the throne,… 

Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth (God made judgments), and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.” – Rev. 8:3-5


“And I heard the altar saying,

“Yes, Lord God the Almighty,
    true and just are your judgments!”” – Rev. 16:7


“And I heard the angel in charge of the waters say,

“Just are you, O Holy One, who is and who was,
    for you brought these judgments.
For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets (answered the slain souls under the altar),
    and you have given them blood to drink.
It is what they deserve!”” – Rev. 16:5,6

The 7th Seal:

It refer to the judgment of God, when the 7th Seal is opened the 7 Trumpets have to blow and 7 Bowls have to pour out. The Great Tribulation will occur in the 7th Seal, the 144000 saints will be sealed complete. When the 7th Seal is ended, the 7 headed Beast and Babylon the Great would be destroyed.


“Then I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:” – Rev. 7:2-4


“When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.” – Rev. 8:1,2


The 1st Trumpet:

It refers to the first angel blow his trumpet, a third of the earth and trees and all grass would burn up. It seems the woe of 1-4 trumpets not like 5, 6 Trumpets would pass away, it will last till to the ending.


“The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood (made deadful), and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.” – Rev. 8:7


The 2nd Trumpet:

It refers to the 2nd angel blow his trumpet, a great burning mountain throw into the sea, a third of livings died and a third of ships destroyed. Maybe “mountain” refers to a sea volcano eruption, the sea would over heat and make a third livings died.

It seems the woe of 1-4 Trumpets not like 5, 6 Trumpets would pass away, it will last till to the ending.


“The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became bloodA third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.” – Rev. 8:8


The 3rd Trumpet:

It refers to the 3rd angel blow his Trumpet, a great star fell on a third of rivers, a third of the waters became wormwood and bitter.

It seems the woe of 1-4 Trumpets not like 5, 6 Trumpets would pass away, it will last till to the ending.


“The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the water, because it had been made bitter.” – Rev. 8:10,11


The 4th Trumpet:

It refers to the 4th angel blow his Trumpet, a third light of the sun and the moon and the stars are struck and darken.

It seems the woe of 1-4 Trumpets not like 5, 6 Trumpets would pass away, it will last till to the ending.


“The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.” – Rev. 8:12



Chapter 9-11

The 5th Trumpet:

It refers to the 5th angel blow his Trumpet, a bottomless pit would be opened and symbolic locusts come out to harm people 5 months, but do not harm the 144000 saints who are sealed with God’s name on their forehead. It seems the 5th Seal and the 5th Trumpet are at the same pattern which related to “souls under the altar – 144000 saints”.


The 5-6 Woe of trumepts are described would pass away, but not the 1-4 Trumpets. It seems the climax of the Great Tribulation would occur during 5-7 Trumpets period.


“And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit

He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft. Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. 

They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheadsThey were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. 

And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.” – Rev. 9:1-6


“Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice as it flew directly overhead, “Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth (maybe refers to reaching climax of the Great Tribulation), at the blasts of the other trumpets that the three angels are about to blow!”” – Rev. 8:13



The 6th Trumpet:

It refers to the sixth angel blew his Trumpet, it seems the number of “the 144000 – souls under the altar” would be complete officially at the ending of the 6th Trumpet. Many events would be happened during the 6th Trumpet period.


(1) Twice ten thousand times ten thousand troops will be released, a third of mankind would be killed.


(2) An rainbow angel announced the mystery of God – the kingdom of God would be fulfilled when the 7th Trumpet is sounded, the number of sealing 144000 saints would be complete, “just as he announced to his servants the prophets”.


(3) Complete and measure the number of “those who worship under the altar”, the symbolic 42 months would be ended.

    and you have given them blood to drink.
It is what they deserve!”


And I heard the altar saying (the souls under the altar of the 5th seal),

“Yes, Lord God the Almighty,
    true and just are your judgments!”” -Revelation 16:5-7


“Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters”” – Revelation 17:1

the dead “die in the Lord from now on”:

Refers to the 7 Churches’s brothers – souls under the altar – the 144000 saints, they are blessed because they would be the holy nation and the priests of nation.

“die in the Lord” refers to the souls under the altar as the sacrifices offering to God, their foreheads are written YHWH God’s name and the Lamb’s name.

“from now on” refers to from the 1st century that angel made this announcement, until the number of 144000 is complete.


12 Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus. (7 Churches’ brothers)

13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, “that they may “rest” from their labors, for their deeds follow them!”” – Revelation 14:12,13


When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne…(7 Churches’ brothers

11 Then they were each given a white robe and told to “rest” a little longer, “until” the number of their fellow servants and their (7 Churches) brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.” – Revelation 6:9,11


saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, “until” we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of the sealed, 144,000, sealed from every tribe of the “sons of Israel“” – Revelation 7:3,4


14 But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before (7 Churches’ brothers) the “sons of Israel“, so that they might eat food sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality. ” – Revelation 2:14


12 The one who conquers (7 Churches’ brothers), I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name (the Lamb). ” – Revelation 3:12


“Then I looked, and behold, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.” – Revelation 14:1


The hour to reap:

It refers to the time of “the end of the age”, the judgment time of God, all harvest wheat(144000 saints) are ripe (complete). Also sons of evil would be gathered and burn with fire.


15 And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, “Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest (144000 saints) of the earth is fully ripe (complete).” 16 So he who sat on the cloud swung his sickle across the earth, and the earth was reaped.” – Rev. 14:15,16


37 He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man (Jesus). 38 The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom (sons of heavenly Israel). The weeds are the sons of the evil one, 

39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 

40 Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, 42 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 

43 Then the righteous (144000 saints) will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father (God’s sons). He who has ears, let him hear.” – Matthew 13:37-43


The Grape Clusters:

Maybe the “grape” refers to the product /source which producing wine by Babylon the Great – mother of prostitutes, maybe it symbolises the “mind” of the abominations and sexual immorality.


” 18 And another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has authority over the fire, and he called with a loud voice to the one who had the sharp sickle, “Put in your sickle and gather the clusters from the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe.” 19 So the angel swung his sickle across the earth and gathered the grape harvest of the earth and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.” – Revelation 14:18,19


“…the great prostitute who is seated on many waters, 

with whom the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality, and with the wine of whose “sexual immorality” the dwellers on earth have become drunk.” – Revelation 17:1,2


“The woman (Babylon the great – mother of prostitutes)… holding in her hand a golden cup full of “abominations” and the impurities of her “sexual immorality“.” – Revelation 17:4


“For all nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality…” – Revelation 18:3


Mankind are drunk of her wine. What does it mean? Maybe it refers to mankind are drunk on the wine of Babylon the Great, their mind are “full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality”.


The terms “grapes are ripe” may refers to “the fullness or high peak” of the abominations and sexual immorality produced by Babylon the Great.


“for her sins are “heaped high” as heaven,
 and God has remembered her iniquities.” – Revelation 18:5


“the winepress was trodden outside the city… “, the city probaby refers to the city of Babylon the Great, for the source materials – “grapes” comes from this city. 


“Then one of the seven angels… said to me, “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters, … and with the wine of whose sexual immorality the dwellers on earth have become drunk.” – Revelation 17:1,2


“Another angel, a second, followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality.”” Rev. 14:8


So maybe when the 7th Trumpet – the 7 Bowls finished, angels would destroy Babylon the Great, the mind of mankind – the symbolic “grapes” would threw into the God’s great winepress, to press out the mind of abominations and sexual immorality, like pressing the red juice (blood) from grape, they would be squeezed until the last drop. Mankind will be purified and clean, no abominations and sexual immorality mind any more, for the Babylon the Great will be found no more.


This may compares with Isaiah 63:1-7 about God’s Salvation. 

Who is this who comes from Edom,
    in crimsoned garments from Bozrah,

he who is splendid in his apparel,
    marching in the greatness of his strength?

“It is I, speaking in righteousness,
    mighty to save.”

Why is your apparel red,
    and your garments like his who treads in the winepress?

“I have trodden the winepress alone,
    and from the peoples no one was with me;

I trod them in my anger
    and trampled them in my wrath;

their lifeblood spattered on my garments,
    and stained all my apparel.

For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
    and my year of redemption had come.

I looked, but there was no one to help;
    I was appalled, but there was no one to uphold;

so my own arm brought me salvation,
    and my wrath upheld me.

I trampled down the peoples in my anger;

    I made them drunk in my wrath,
    and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.”

I will recount the steadfast love of YHWH,
    the praises of YHWH,

according to all that YHWH has granted us,
    and the great goodness to the house of Israel

that he has granted them according to his compassion,
    according to the abundance of his steadfast love.

It refers to the 7 Churches’ brothers; 144000 saints.

Also I saw the souls (the slain souls under the altarof those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. ” – Revelation 20:4


“Blessed and holy is the one (7 Churches’ brothers – the one who conquered) who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.” – Revelation 20:6


“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches (7 Churches’ brothers). “The one who conquers” will not be hurt by the second death.” – Revelation 2:11
