Revelation 16:17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, “It is done!”
18 And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth.
19 Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.
20 Then every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And great hail from heaven fell upon men, each hailstone about the weight of a talent. Men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, since that plague was exceedingly great.
The seventh bowl of FATHER’S wrath brings forth the culmination of judgment on the earth. The earth dwellers represent the worldly soulish system where the religious, economic, and political subsystems reside whereas the fleshly sea dwellers represent the lowest deprave aspect of humanity. The soulish nature of all men is now being judged.
“It is done!” is the final announcement of HIS wrath as the seventh bowl completes this cycle. This is a far cry from the seventh seal being opened where there was silence for a half hour. But after that half hour, the prayers of the saints brought forth a response from FATHER:
Revelation 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel’s hand.
5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth. And there were noises, thunderings, lightnings, and an earthquake
The difference now is that the greatest earthquake of all has come forth. Thunderings represent the power of the Lord GOD Almighty, lightnings represent the illumination of Divine Truth coming forth, and the result is the shaking of the foundations of every aspect of man’s soulish kingdoms. This shaking leaves nothing to question for it is the greatest shaking in man’s history on earth. Every lie, deception, and betrayal will be exposed by the full raising of the Standard of Love and Truth. I cannot overemphasize the need to understand the brevity of this coming event. It is absolutely critical that each of us shed every weight that would hinder us from coming into the fullness of HIS Love and Truth:
Hebrews 12:1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
This final bowl progressively produces thunderings, then lightnings, then and a great earthquake resulting from “voices”. Those voices are the Living Word of Our Heavenly Father to be released in the earth soon by HIS kings and priests who surround the Throne. Mankind will have no excuse as a whole. FATHER is always lawful and longsuffering before HE brings forth HIS wrath and mankind cannot claim to be unaware of HIS Intent for HIS Word has been published throughout the earth. All of creation testifies of FATHER’S Divine Intent of Love if only the masses were not blinded to the message.
The great city was divided into three parts: At the personal level- spirit, soul, and body. At the macro level- religious, economic, and political. This great earthquake will shake every aspect of man at all levels. FATHER’S power and glory will illuminate HIS great Truths and Love which will shake everyone to the core. The current and highly fragile system is ready to fall. Great sin has befallen mankind in the current state of the world. The tares are at fully maturity and the final harvest of wheat is golden and ready to be brought forth.
Islands and mountains are no longer found. You cannot be isolated from this event in any way or fashion, you WILL BE affected by this great earthquake. You will either take part in the delivery or be a recipient. Great hail represents great Truth:
Isaiah 28:17 Also I will make justice the measuring line,
And righteousness the plummet;
The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
And the waters will overflow the hiding place.
The weight of a talent speaks of the Law of equal weights and measures. The fullness of judgment will come forth according to the lawlessness and accountability of each person’s actions and intent. Those in authority will be held to a greater level of accountability. The Pharisees’ outward, external forms of piety kept them from seeing the Messiah. They were warned of their impending judgment by Our Lord Jesus Christ on more than one occasion.
Men will be plagued by the Truth coming forth through HIS very elect, the Saints. They will put up resistance to the Truth and blaspheme Our Heavenly Father. Their egos have been given such derivative strength within them, they choose death over life. Little do they realize that their choice to take the path to death will ultimately bring them face to face with the Giver of Live for Love will not be denied restoration of all mankind. This, my friend, is the great news of this Fifth Gospel.
