God’s creation manifesting itself in prophesied destructive phenomena
In the groaning of God’s creation as it waits for a Future Appearance
Of the manifestation of the Sons of God on the Surface of His Earth
The beginning of the Tribulation Period is Not a Far Distant Event
Since we’ve been in the “Beginning of Sorrows” for some Time

Romans 8:19-23 – For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation
of the sons of God.
[20] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, [21] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
[23] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
SEVEN SEALS IN REVELATION 6:1-8 ARE THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS
THIS WAS PROPHESIED TO HAPPEN IN “THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS”
Revelation 6:1-8 – And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
[2] And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
[3] And when he had opened the second seal, I heard
the second beast say, Come and see. [4] And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. [5] And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the
third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
[6] And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. [7] And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
[8] And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger,
and with death, and
with the beasts of the earth.

I have already put up Blogs 1, 2, and 2a – I will put up Blog 3 next, Lord willing.
THIS IS “THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS” IN MATTHEW 24:7,8:
Matthew 24:7,8 – For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. [8] All these are the beginning of sorrows.
THIS IS “THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS” IN LUKE 21:11:
Luke 21:11 – And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
When “the beginning of sorrows” actually began I covered in Blogs 1,2, and 2a.
The phenomena prophesied to be produced by the four horsemen of the four seals were to slowly increase sporadically over an undefined period, and then suddenly explode on the opening of the sixth seal to launch into the trumpets and vials, which will also increase in intensity, reaching a final peak of terror on the last of seven vials.
THE TRIBULATION PERIOD BEGINS AS THE SIXTH SEAL OPENS!
THE “SORROWS” PHENOMENA BEGINS AN EXPLOSIVE INCREASE
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 island were moved out of their places.
THE LAST MAXIMUM “SORROWS” EVENT CLOSES THE TRIBULATION
Revelation 16:16-21 – And he gathered them together into a place called
in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
[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. [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. [20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [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.
