Bible Revelation
The Revelation is most difficult and confused for Jesus followers. It seems no any relations or linkage with other books of Bible, and most of contents are symbolic that can’t understand what is it talking about. If God gives us Revelation to read, is it really no hints to let us understanding the Revelation?
We found that it is highly similar to the route of Israelis left Egypt to Promise Land, is that God wants us to know Revelation like that? It seems yes!! So before we read Revelation, let’s review the process how Israelis left Egypt. You can see the following picture…
As you know, before Israelis left Egypt, they smeared the blood of lamb on their doorposts, it symbolic Jesus was killed as the symbolized Lamb, that’s why John says Lamb is the significant role in Revelation. After that angel was leading Moses(Prophet) and Israelis entering Promise Land. It was happening like below…
Left Egypt – Six Seals
(1) – Angel leading Moses and Israelis entering Promise Land.
(#) – Open the 1st Seal of Revelation, the white horse with crown “came out conquering, and to conquer”, the white horse(Jesus) would leading God’s people to enter the “real” Promise Land – New Heaven and New Earth.
(2) – Israelis wars were happening during the period of entering Promise Land.
(#) – Open the 2nd Seal of Revelation, the red horse making wars “to take peace from the earth”.
(3) – Israelis suffering food shortage during the period of entering Promise Land.
(#) – Open the 3rd Seal of Revelation, the black horse saying “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!”
(4) – Pestilence, snake, famine, death occurred on Israelis during the period of entering Promise Land.
(#) – Open the 4th Seal of Revelation, a pale horse called Death “to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth”.
(5) – After left Egypt, Jehovah God made covenant with Israelis in the Mount Sinai, they would form the Holy Nation and the Nation of Priests in the Promise Land.
(#) – Open the 5th Seal of Revelation, the altar the souls were given a white robe and need to wait until the number of their brothers complete – the rest of heavenly Woman’s offspring(144000), they will form the Nation of Priests and the Holy Nation(Heavenly Israel) in the New Heaven and New Earth.
(6) – Israelis have to enter the Promise Land officially at that moment, but unfortunately 12 spies except 2(2 witnesses) reported bad news, Israelis were lack of Faith in YHWH God although they saw and experienced the almighty of God, they refused to enter the Promise Land. They made God angry, so God didn’t allow that generation to enter the Promise Land, they had to walk around the wilderness looping and looping until the 40 years end. Enter the Promise Land was hold on or paused, it can be said they were entering, entering the Promise Land during that period!!!
(#) – Open the 6th Seal of Revelation, the great day is come, sun become black, full moon become blood, star fall onto the earth. The kings, the generals… are hiding themselves, the End Day is to come! But it is like Israelis, the Day is paused and is coming, coming, same as 40 years in wilderness, there is also a similar period of the Revelation, that period is called “1260 days” “a time, times, and half a time” “42 months”. After that period ends kings, generals… will be killed in Armageddon.
Symbolized wilderness period
The actual timeline of opening the Six Seals was in the 1st century, and then paused like the Israelis 40 years in wilderness, during this period was waiting 144000 saints being sealed. Is this why God said the heavenly woman was stay in “wilderness“? It seems to be. When the number of 144000 completed the End Day will come, also the great Tribulation will come. The four horses are looping, running around and around during this period until 144000 saints are sealed complete, then the 7th seal will be opened.
How long of this period? This symbolized period is “7 churches times” ; “a time, times, and half a time” ; “1260 days” ; “42 months”. During this period the white horse will “conquering, and to conquer”, at the end the white horse Jesus (King of kings) with holy angels will appear and conquer finally.
So the 40 years period of wilderness actually symbolic 7 churches period ; a time, times, and half a time ; 1260 days ; 42 months.
1260 days = sealing 144000 saints period;
“a time, times, and half a time” = 7 churches witnessing period;
42 months = The beast tramping Jerusalem period and make war on saints period.
When the symbolic wilderness period ended, all 144000 saints seal complete and “1260 days” ended; the witnessing period of “a time(of 2 churches), times(2 times of 2 churches), half a time(half time of 2 churches)” ended, 2 witnesses(2 churches) witnessing period ended; The reign of the beast of symbolic “42 months” period will be ended too.
This Generation
Because those “generation” of Israelis lack of Faith in God and also done evils, so God “made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the “generation” that had done evil in the sight of YHWH was gone.” – Numbers 32:13. And those “generation” in wilderness has a rich symbolic meant.
“O faithless and twisted “generation“, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you?” – Matthew 17:17
“Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”… 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be… 30 Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man… 34 Truly, I say to you, “this generation” will not pass away, until all these things take place. – Matthew 24:3-35
The generation of Israelis in wilderness was gone after 40 years, and this symbolic another “this generation” that will be gone when the End Day is come. Because apostles asked Jesus about what would be happened about the Jerusalem and the day he came back, so Jesus gave them one answer but for both questions.
Therefore what Jesus said this “generation” would fulfilled twice, one was the generation passed away at AD 70 Jerusalem destroyed, another would be the End Day when Jesus come with heavenly sign. This “generation” maybe is from 1st century Jesus days till to the End Day. But there will be a Great Multitude(uncountable) come out and enter into the real Promise Land-New Heaven New Earth.
“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, ” ‘Today‘, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness… 10 Therefore I was provoked with that generation… 11 …They shall not enter “my rest“…” 18 And to whom did he(God) swear that they would not enter “his rest“, but to those who were disobedient?” – Hebrews 3:7-18.
“Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us… 6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those(Israelis) who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,
7 again he appoints a “certain day“, “Today,” saying through David so long afterward…
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of “another day later on”. 9 So then, there “remains” a Sabbath rest for the people of God…”. – Hebrews 4:1-9.
Therefore God arranged(remains) another “certain day“(another Rest), the real Sabbath God’s rest for God’s people. That is to say God prepares a real Promise Land-New Heaven New Earth for the Faithful people after the Great Tribulation, “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.” – Revelation 7:17.
7th Seal
When all 144000 saints are sealed complete, that means “1260 days” is ended, then the 7th Seal will be opened!! When the 7th Seal is opened, 7 trumpets are given to 7 angels to blow. When the 7th trumpet is blown, 7 bowls are given to 7 angels who clothed as priests to pour out, and then the Babylon the great is fallen. The fall of Babylon the great will be the mark of God’s people have entered the New Heaven New Earth officially.
It was like 7 priests of Israelis blew trumpets 7 days and walked around Jericho, they blew trumpets once a day. In the 7th day, they walked and blew trumpets 7 times in that day, after that Jericho was fallen. The fallen of Jericho became the mark of Israelis officially entered the Promise Land.
Before Israelis blew trumpets, the commander of the YHWH’s army(Michael?) came to instruct Joshua and made Jericho fell. The same, “At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time”. – Daniel 12:1.
And Israelis 7 priests walked before “ark” when they blew trumpets, it’s like Revelation 11:15,19 “Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet… 19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the “ark” of his covenant was seen within his temple…”.
“the sanctuary of the tent of witness in heaven was opened, and out of the sanctuary came the seven angels with the seven plagues, clothed in pure, bright linen, with golden sashes around their chests.” – Revelation 15:5,6.
Michael will come before angels blow trumpets, after 7 trumpets have blown Babylon the great will fall. “Then a mighty angel(Michael?) took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “So will Babylon the great city be thrown down with violence…”” – Revelation 18:21.
Seven Trumpets
7 Trumpets have to blow when the 7th Seal is opened. It will be a great loud voice let people can “see” and hear. Can you hear the loud voice of trumpets? Can you see what is happening now?
1st Trumpet : a third of earth, a third of trees and all grass are burned.
2nd Trumpet : a third of sea living creatures death.
3rd Trumpet : a third of river become wormwood.
4th Trumpet : a third of sun, moon, stars are stuck become darken.
When the above 4 Trumpets have blown, that means the Great Tribulation is come. Can you see that it is happening now? The Great Tribulation will reach “climax” when the other 3 Trumpets are being blown, for angel cry loudly “woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth”.
5th Trumpet : When the 5th Trumpet is blown, the symbolized locusts(COVID19?) will come out of bottomless pit, they will harm people and make them willing to die, but death flee from them. After the symbolized 6 months period, the 5th woe will pass away.
1. When 6th Trumpet is blown, twice ten thousand times ten thousand of mounted troops will occur, it symbolic huge amount of volcano eruption will happen around the earth. A third of mankind will be killed.
2. And during the 6th Trumpet period, the rainbow angel will open the little scroll and the mystery of God – the mystery of Kingdom of God will be revealed.
3. Angel told John to measure and count temple and those(144000) worship there, to make sure no one is missed. Also 2 Witnesses(2 Lampstands) of 7 Churches witnessing period will be ended. 7 Churches witnessing period – “a time, times, and half a time” will be ended, they will go to heaven to become the Kingdom of God. Therefore no need Churches(Lampstands) on earth anymore, for they have finished their mission, YHWH God and the Lamb will be the light of all nations.
The 7th Trumpet
The 7th Day : Israelis’ Priests walked around Jericho and blew trumpets 7 times, after that Jericho was fallen.
The 7th Trumpet : After the 6th woe pass away, next will be the 7th trumpet has to blow. When the 7th Trumpet is blown, 144000 saints are completed and well prepared as the first fruits given to Lamb and God, they come from every nation people language and tribe(Rev. 5:9). They stand on Zion with Jesus and will be the King and Priest of Kingdom of God.
Now God make judgement on Babylon the Great and the Beast. 7 Bowls have to pour out…
7 Bowls
1st Bowl : pour to the people(countries) have 666 mark.
2nd Bowl : pour to the sea, all living thing have died.
3rd Bowl : pour to rivers, water springs.
4th Bowl : pour to sun to scorch people with fire.
5th Bowl : pour to Beast throne, the Beast is pained and sores.
6th Bowl : pour to river Euphrates, its water is dried up. Three unclean spirits to assemble all kings for battle (Armageddon) on the great day of God the Almighty. King of kings will come soon.
7th Bowl :pour to the air, the great city Babylon is fallen and split into 3 parts, “it is done“.
Babylon the Great and 7 headed Beast with ten horns
Angel explained who is Babylon the Great and ten horns and 7 heads Beast to apostle John, but it is the mystery and only reveal it at the End Day. It seems this is our day, the ten horns and the Beast 666 will destroy and burn up Babylon the great during the7 Bowls period.
King of kings and Reign a thousand years
After Babylon the Great has destroyed, the Heaven is great rejoiced, Praise YHWH God Hallelujah!!
Jesus King of kings will come down from heaven with angels, the Beast and the false prophet will throw alive into the Lake of Fire, the rest kings(countries) will slain by Jesus’ sword(God’s word), all birds(angels) will be gorged(glad and satisfied).
After the Beast is killed, the red Dragon will be captured and throw into the bottomless pit for a thousand years. 144000 saints include the beheaded for testimony of Jesus, those not worship the Beast are come to life, the first resurrection is done. They will reign with Christ 1000 years and the Thousand Years Reign is officially started.
When a thousand years are ended, Devil Satan will be released from bottomless pit to deceive nations Gog and Magog, and they will “surround the camp of saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them”. Finally Devil Satan will throw into the Lake of Fire too.
New Heaven New Earth – Real Promise Land
“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away”. “And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God”. How bright and glory of this golden city! The New Jerusalem will be the Kingdom of God – come down from heaven to make God’s will done on earth and hallow God’s name.
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
YHWH God’s light will shine the nations and the Lamb is the lamp. King of nations will bring their nations’ glory to New Jerusalem give it to God and Lamb. The Tree of Life and water of life from New Jerusalem will be given and healing all nations, no cursed anymore. “I will bless those who bless you… and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed”, it will be fulfilled in the real Promise Land.
It is done! “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end”. “And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price”. “I am coming soon.”
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
