BELIEVERS SHOULD CONSIDER FINAL WAR EVENTS – PART 1 IN SERIES

We are facing the beginning of the final war of the Age of the Gentiles, and it is not a far distant prophetic event. The Tribulation Period events associated with the final war are graphically described, and where you are when specific events occur is something worth considering. Where you are before the catching out of believers (the rapture) occurs, and where you are after it
occurs, is certainly one thing believers should carefully consider for themselves based on the Scriptures.
HAVE YOU BEEN SHOWN THE MY STE
RY
? – Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed. (I Corinthians 15:51) Web: http://www.tribulationperiod.com/
ARE YOU READY FOR THE MYSTERY TO BE FINISHED
? – But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
(Revelation 10:7)
ARE YOU READY FOR THE VOICE & TRUMP OF ANGEL 7? – For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (I Thessalonians 4:16)
ARE YOU READY FOR HIS KINGDOMS ON THE 7TH TRUMP? – And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. (Revelation 11:15)
ARE YOU READY FOR THE LAST TRUMP IN A SERIES OF 7? – In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (I Corinthians 15:52)
ARE YOU READY TO BE JUDGE
D AFTER THE 7TH TRUMPET? – And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. (Revelation 11:18)
HIS 7 VIALS OF WRATH COME ON THEM AS WE ARE JUDGED
? 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.
(Revelation 16:1) See Archive Prophecy Updates 73D, 74A, 123B, 124A, 144A, 144F, 147D)

Revelation Quakes, Tectonic Plates Move, Volcanoes Rise, Sky Changes
Revelation 6:12-14 –And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; [13] And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. [14] And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain
and isl
and were moved out of their places. (See Archives – Birth Pang 3)
This earthquake will trigger a chain reaction that spreads erratically on the tectonic plate borders of the earth to produce countless numbers of earthquakes for some three and one-half years across the surface of the entire planet. All mountains and islands are firmly impregnated into these massive plates, and ride along as passengers on their surface. By the end of the three and one-half years, every mountain peak, and the center of every island, will have a new set of latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates in microseconds. I know this to be true because Revelation 6:14 states that “every mountain and island were moved out of their places.” Furthermore, I believe the fantastic breakup along the shifting place borders will produce thousands of volcanic eruptions, which will fulfill the phenomenon “and the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together.” I believe the use of a Jewish scroll as a simile to show the gradual disappearance of the sun, moon, stars, and blue sky, is the perfect illustration of the effect volcanic smoke has on the appearance of the heavens as it builds up in the stratosphere. When the great volcano Krakatoa erupted in 1883 more than half of the island was destroyed and blown away in the explosion. The cloud over the volcano reached 17 miles into the air, and the volcanic dust from the eruption was carried completely around the world by the winds of the stratosphere – taking months to drift down to the earth’s surface. The microscopic volcanic particles in the earth’s atmosphere produced beautiful sunrises and sunsets throughout a large part of the world long after
the eruption.
I am convinced that the shifting of the plates will generate the formation of long chains of volcanic eruptions, pictured in figure 10, along all the boundaries of figure 3. God, who made everything I have described to the point, has also created, around the entire earth, a great temperature inversion shroud in the lower section of the stratosphere, just above the tropopause. So any time there is a moderate to severe vertical volcanic eruption, smoke is forcefully injected through the tropopause, and then trapped beneath the temperature inversion of the stratosphere. There is virtually no moisture found above the tropopause, so the volcanic smoke particles take a long time to become heavy enough to fall earthward by condensation of water vapor on them, and smoke remains suspended in the lower section of the stratosphere for five to fifteen years. The winds, in the lower section of the stratosphere, do spread the volcanic smoke around the entire envelope of atmosphere that surrounds the earth over a two to four year period. Figure 11 portrays the great temperature inversion that exists through the stratosphere around the entire earth. As the smoke attempts to rise through this inversion it soon reaches a temperature near its own, and then begins to flatten out into a great shield of smoke,
a shield that is then carried by upper level winds to produce an earth encompassing cloud in the lower stratosphere. Have you ever really looked at all the Old and New Testament prophecies that describe the appearance of the heavenly bodies during the last three and one-half years of the Tribulation Period? Let us now consider just a few of them, to see if we can correlate them with the increasing severity of their visual effect on the view of human eyes from start to finish.
Revelation 6:12 – And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
Joel 2:30,31 – And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. [31] The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before
the great and the terrible day of the Lord come.
Revelation 8:12 – 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.
Joel 2:10 – The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
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:
How can this be? One prophet says you will not be able to see the sun, moon, and stars about one-third of the time, but another says you won’t be able to see them at all. These prophecies are fulfilled gradually over the last three and one-half years of the Tribulation Period, and the prophets have been given visions of their effects on the view of the heavenly bodies from the earth, at different times, during this period. Let us assume that the last three and on-half years of the Tribulation Period have begun, and a person is standing at point “X” on figure 12. This person could look up and see the sun, moon, or stars from this vantage point on the earth’s surface without obstruction. Now, let’s allow figure 12 to come alive, with the winds of the stratosphere moving the volcanic smoke clouds around the earth in patches. Within a few hours after you first made your unobstructed observation of the sun, moon, or stars, the thin leading edge of the volcanic cloud would begin to move between you and the heavenly bodies. If it were night, the moon would turn blood red. If it were day, the sun would be darkened. Within an hour or two the thicker part of the volcanic smoke shield would move over you, and the sun, moon, or stars would completely disappear from view. After a few more hours the back side of the cloud would move past, and you would once again be enjoying a clear space between volcanic cloud patches, such that the sun, moon, or stars would again be visible. This scenario would be repeated over and over again during the last three and one-half years of the Tribulation Period, but on a gradually worsening trend. You would not be able to see the sun, moon, or stars about one-third of the time – at times the moon would be blood red and the sun black as sackcloth of hair – and sometimes you could not see any of the heavenly bodies. All of this is exactly what the Old and New Testament prophets observed in their visions. These are a part of the “signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars” prophesied by Luke.
Luke 21:25,26 – And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
At this point it may seem I have been sidetracked from explaining “and the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together,” however, everything up to this point has been for that specific purpose. In Revelation 6:14, the word used for heaven is “ouranos,” and there are three of them: (1) The heaven where God dwells, (2) The heaven that makes up our atmosphere, and (3) The heaven were the sun, moon, stars, and other heavenly bodies dwell, that is, the universe. It is the universe heaven to which John refers. The word translated “departed” is “apechoristhe,” which, in this case, simply means “was removed from view.” John is saying he saw what the Hebrews considered heaven (sun, moon, and stars) removed from his view. When a man departs, or is removed, he is no longer visible to the one from which he departed. He may “depart” quickly or slowly. He may remain in view for a long time before he does finally “depart” from view. John says that the heaven disappeared from his view, and then tells us the very slow manner in which it disappeared – “as a scroll when it is rolled together.” The reader of the scroll reads, then rolls, reads, then rolls, reads, then rolls, and continues this process until the writing departs from his view after the final page is read. On the last turning the two rollers come together, at which time the writing completely disappears from his view.
In figure 13 you can see the likeness of a Hebrew scroll. If, while you were reading the scroll, it was slowly rolled together, then it could be truly stated that the writing departed from your view, “as a scroll when it is rolled together.” In his vision John looked up into what the Hebrews considered the heavens and, as he watched, all the heavenly bodies slowly disappeared over a period of time. This is exactly what will occur during the period of time we identify as the last three and one-half years of the Tribulation Period. It will occur like the slow rolling together of a scroll, such that by the end of the Tribulation Period a continuous cloud band of smoke will completely engulf the earth in the lower section of the stratosphere. No one will be able to see the sun, moon, or stars through the thick shroud for about five months before the Battle of Armageddon. It is through the great stratospheric cloud, shown in figure 14, that the author believes the Lord shall return at the end of the Tribulation Period.
