Revelation 16
CATASTROPHIC CHAPTER - ARMAGEDDON
The Beast & The Harlots
The number 16 symbolizes eradication, as that is what the whole of this chapter speaks of. 16:16, destruction times itself implies immense & conclusive, in this instance the last war
1: & I HEARD A GREAT VOICE OUT OF THE TEMPLE SAYING TO THE SEVEN ANGELS, GO YOUR WAYS, & POUR OUT THE VIALS OF THE WRATH OF GOD UPON THE EARTH.
THE FIRST PLAGUE:
2: & THE FIRST WENT, & POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE EARTH; & THERE FELL A NOISOME & GRIEVOUS SORE UPON THE MEN WHICH HAD THE MARK OF THE BEAST, & UPON THEM WHICH WORSHIPPED HIS IMAGE
The grievous sore is the shame to their blindness, the indignity they have yielded to
The congregations suffer this first plague with an awakening to what the Papacy has developed into - the beast. Not just the religious zealots, who make such a great deal of stating, 'I am a Christian or Catholic,' but those who supported the stigmas of her - whether they believed in the church or not
The next three plagues maneuver into the fifth - are related, denoted by the image's seat.
THE SECOND PLAGUE
3: & THE SECOND ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE SEA; & IT BECAME AS THE BLOOD OF A DEAD MAN: & EVERY LIVING SOUL DIED IN THE SEA
The sea pertains to the flood of people, nations - the many waters - of Christianity.
Many Christians have awakened to what has happened to Christianity from its immaculate inauguration.
The 'Blood of a Dead Man' is the return to Christ & His Way - to Heaven, returned home
- the pure inauguration of Christianity is now dead. Compare a future remark - & I WILL KILL HER CHILDREN WITH DEATH - the mother church & her daughters will not rebuild.
THE THIRD PLAGUE:
4: & THE THIRD ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE RIVERS & FOUNTAINS OF WATERS; & THEY BECAME BLOOD. 5: & I HEARD THE ANGEL OF THE WATERS SAY, THOU ART RIGHTEOUS, O LORD, WHICH ART, & WAST, & SHALT BE, BECAUSE THOU HAST JUDGED THUS 6: FOR THEY HAVE SHED THE BLOOD OF SAINTS & PROPHETS, & THOU HAST GIVEN THEM BLOOD TO DRINK; FOR THEY ARE WORTHY. 7: & I HEARD ANOTHER OUT OF THE ALTAR SAY, EVEN SO, LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, TRUE & RIGHTEOUS ARE THY JUDGMENTS
The rivers & fountains are those who came from the sea, the Reformation & its kingdoms
as Christianity steadily goes downhill; churches begin to fall
THE FOURTH PLAGUE:
8: & THE FOURTH ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE SUN; & POWER WAS GIVEN UNTO HIM TO SCORCH MEN WITH FIRE. 9: & MEN WERE SCORCHED WITH GREAT HEAT, & BLASPHEMED THE NAME OF GOD, WHICH HATH POWER OVER THESE PLAGUES: & THEY REPENTED NOT TO GIVE HIM GLORY
The sun is the life
The churches are no longer between God & the people.
This plague is directed to the Papacy's lifeblood force. The clergy shall be screaming at God for what they cannot accept - children reaching God without the church. Today enrollment is down big-time, but morals are relatively high, with the exception of war crimes
THE FIFTH PLAGUE:
10: & THE FIFTH ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE SEAT OF THE BEAST; & HIS KINGDOM WAS FULL OF DARKNESS; & THEY GNAWED THEIR TONGUES FOR PAIN, 11: & BLASPHEMED THE GOD OF HEAVEN BECAUSE OF THEIR PAINS & THEIR SORES, & REPENTED NOT OF THEIR DEEDS
The seat of this beast is its foundation, Satan's seat, Revelation 2:13 - WHERE SATAN'S SEAT IS - WHERE SATAN DWELLETH -clearly in the Christian empire
The Mother church & her employees, including the pope will eventually scream at God in blasphemous tones
THE SIXTH PLAGUE:
12: & THE SIXTH ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL UPON THE GREAT RIVER EUPHRATES; & THE WATER THEREOF WAS DRIED UP, THAT THE WAY OF THE KINGS OF THE EAST MIGHT BE PREPARED
The kings of the east do battle, much like what is happening today in the Arab countries [Israel vs. Palestine, USA collation vs. Afghanistan & Iraq], only on a large scale - the stage has already been set & cannot reverse itself. Matthew 10:34 THINK NOT THAT I HAVE COME TO SEND PEACE TO THE EARTH; I CAME NOT TO SEND PEACE, BUT THE SWORD
- this plague is Armageddon - those who taste from the Euphrates River - a United Arab Nation under one leader
- it is not just Christianity who fights Islam, but the whole world - more likely from an United Arab nation such as Iran wiping out Israel
- the fact that the Tigris, running parallel, is not also dried up also shows location.
This verse is the counterpart of Genesis 16:12 - 16=destruction; 12= Christ's - regarding Ishmael - & - HE WILL BE A WILD MAN; HIS HAND WILL BE AGAINST EVERY MAN, & EVERY MAN'S HAND AGAINST HIM, & HE SHALL DWELL IN THE PRESENCE OF ALL HIS BRETHREN - this declaration has yet to be fulfilled, or if God was responsible for such a statement, God is a liar?
Islamic minds sense that the invading Israel & USAare ONE & the SAME. IF AN NATION INFILTRATED & ATTACKED THE USA [as the American & their cohorts have done with Iraq], OR IF THE UNITED NATIONS GAVE THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO AL-QAIDA TO KEEP WORLD PEACE [as the UN gave Palestine lands to the Jews] , WOULD THE AMERICAN PROTESTERS/DEFENDERS BE LABELED TERRORISTS BY THE REST OF THE WORLD - HOW DIFFERENTLY ARE THE ARABS RESPONDING TO CHRISTIANS/JEWS INVASIONS, CLAIMING ISLAMIC LANDS & MURDERING THEIR PEOPLE.
Israeli's invasion of Arab countries mirror the USA's invasion of Iraq; no war at first, just killing & occupying. For example, 1982 Israel's Ariel Sharon invades Lebanon & is found responsible for the massacre of hundreds of Palestinians in Lebanon, unquestioned by the Western world . Israelis do to the Palestinians what was done to them in the 1930's in Nazi Germany in regards to creating ghettos.
The Palestinians were using sticks & stone demonstrations against Israeli's air & land weapons of mass destruction & solved nothing
- met the deaf ears of the world's United Nation; then came the Arab's ugly suicide bombers & finally the world listened
"US & BRITISH DESTRUCTION OF ARAB COUNTRIES IS LABELED FREEDOM & DEMOCRACY
WHILE RESISTANCE TO THESE TWO COUNTRIES IS LABELED TERRORISM & INTOLERANCE"
USA, Britain & Israel obviously already have a coordinated nuclear weapons policy, but most important is that the governments of Syria, Korea, & Iran have quite openly implied that they plan to use nuclear weapons 'if they are attacked'. BINGO
There is no doubt that Iranians have long ago prepared themselves to fight the inevitable invasion of USA & Israel. Iran will not fall foolishly, in the manner that Iraq did. Iran knows all to well that Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, & North Korea will join them against the steadily weakening USA - as they know they will be next on the American Chopping block. THE AMERICAN ALLIES WILL MEET MILLIONS, NOT THOUSANDS OF UNDERGROUND FIGHTERS WILLING TO GIVE UP THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR LAND & PEOPLE.
the first steps towards Armageddon have been taken - the Big Step will be the American Collation's attack on Iran - possibly as early as 2006/7
On an attack on Iran, the Imperial Christian/Jewish coalition [Bush's followers] will face the height of asymmetrical warfare, [a military term to describe warfare in which the two belligerents are mismatched in their military capabilities or accustomed methods of engagement such that the militarily disadvantaged power must press its special advantages or effectively exploit its enemy's particular weaknesses] far exceeding what has plagued American troops in Iraq.
- when Israel & the USA bombs Iran's illusory nuclear facilities this giant third step will cost Iranian's enemies big time
Iraq has an unique position
for
controls of all Arab counties,
Iraq [Baghdad] is located at the heart of the Middle East & the eye of half the world, as shown in the side pictured bulls eye - the whole other side of the American world. With Iraq as its military launching point, the U.S. gains an incredibly strategic location, bordering six critical states; But these states may very well get together as a United front against all invaders.
The
account gives a more in depth view of the Jewish/Christian invasions of Arab lands, giving the roots to WW 111, especially when the Iranians are invaded [attacked on false grounds, as was Iraq].
NO COUNTRY TODAY IS FREE FROM ARAB RETALIATION UNTIL CHRISTIANS LEAVE THE ARAB'S LANDS
13: & I SAW THREE UNCLEAN SPIRITS LIKE FROGS COME OUT OF THE MOUTH OF THE DRAGON, & OUT OF THE MOUTH OF THE BEAST, & OUT OF THE MOUTH OF THE FALSE PROPHET.
14: FOR THEY ARE THE SPIRITS OF DEVILS, WORKING MIRACLES, WHICH GO FORTH UNTO THE KINGS OF THE EARTH & OF THE WHOLE WORLD, TO GATHER THEM TO THE BATTLE OF THAT GREAT DAY OF GOD ALMIGHTY
The beast, the false prophet & the dragon, have been addressed often & invariably come from the same location
15: BEHOLD, I COME AS A THIEF.
BLESSED IS HE THAT WATCHETH, & KEEPETH HIS GARMENTS, LEST HE WALK NAKED, & THEY SEE HIS SHAME. 16: & HE GATHERED THEM TOGETHER INTO A PLACE CALLED IN THE HEBREW TONGUE ARMAGEDDON
come as a thief in the dark - one will never know when & must always be on guard
Not the end of all, the next plague must take effect. Armageddon is only the end of warfare upon the earth.
17: & THE SEVENTH ANGEL POURED OUT HIS VIAL INTO THE AIR; & THERE CAME A GREAT VOICE OUT OF THE TEMPLE OF HEAVEN, FROM THE THRONE, SAYING, IT IS DONE. 18: & THERE WERE VOICES, & THUNDERS, & LIGHTNINGS; & THERE WAS A GREAT EARTHQUAKE, SUCH AS WAS NOT SINCE MEN WERE UPON THE EARTH, SO MIGHT AN EARTHQUAKE, & SO GREAT
The SEVENTH SEAL'S SEVENTH TRUMPET'S SEVENTH PLAGUE
after the Armageddon
The seventh plague is a cataclysm - rivers change directions as will the earth's axis; in a sense mountains will fall & others will rise; continents may sink & another may rise
The Noah saga shall repeat itself two times more
This is not closing stages of humanity, as another cataclysm must come in chapter twenty
people still blaspheme God in verse twenty
19: & THE GREAT CITY WAS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS
Europe will split outwards in a matter of - what appears as seconds
& THE CITIES OF THE NATIONS FELL: & GREAT BABYLON CAME IN REMEMBRANCE BEFORE GOD, TO GIVE UNTO HER THE CUP OF THE WINE OF THE FIERCENESS OF HIS WRATH.
20: & EVERY ISLAND FLED AWAY, & THE MOUNTAINS WERE NOT FOUND.
21: & THERE FELL UPON MEN A GREAT HAIL OUT OF HEAVEN, EVERY STONE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF A TALENT: & MEN BLASPHEMED GOD BECAUSE OF THE PLAGUE OF THE HAIL; FOR THE PLAGUE THEREOF WAS EXCEEDING GREAT
The last cataclysm was the past Great Flood of the Noah parable, which science shows did happen - perhaps a comet or meteorite, MAYBE A SHIFTING OF THE EARTHS AXIS
there is still another catastrophe to come, extended after this seventh seal [trumpet, plague].
