Just after the introduction of the day of the Lord’s wrath in Revelations 6: 17, John breaks away from the story line to explain some few events that took place before the opening of the seventh seal, which announces Judgment Day proper. The seven trumpet sounds representing the seven final wrath of God Just as in Egypt during the ten plagues, as God protected the Israelites in Egypt, He will also be able to protect these saints during the seven trumpet sound. Ephesians 1: 13-14; 30, throws more light to this fact. “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased”…”And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”
The 144,000 of Revelation 7 are again mentioned in Revelation 14, where it becomes clear that these spiritual first fruits are those who repented and were converted before the Day of the Lord. They were redeemed without faults (Revelation 14:1-5). As for the innumerable multitude, one angel revealed to John that they are the survivors of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb, and will continue to live and be sheltered by God in the sky after the great tribulation (Revelation 7:14-17).
The Day of the Lord begins with the Seven Trumpet Plagues. The first four of these plagues involve certain destruction to the earth, trees and vegetation, seas and rivers. Then the final three plagues usher war back onto the scene. This will constitute one final world war. The seventh trumpet is multi-faceted. It consists of the seven last plagues (also called the Seven Vials of Wrath).
This final all-out war now begins. The Fifth Trumpet Plague (also called the First Woe) lasts for a period of five months and involves warfare between the beast power of Europe and the hordes of the East. Sixth Trumpet Plague, which is the Second Woe. This describes the counter-attack of the hordes of the East against the beast power of Europe. Then the Seventh Trumpet Plague, which is the Third Woe, consists of the seven last plagues (also called vials of wrath). The sixth of these final seven plagues sets the stage for a final battle to resist the Return of Jesus Christ.
Notice the means by which these forces are mobilized, in Revelation 16: 12-14: “And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.”

What is it with you christians and “armageddon”? How can you hope for the death of every person on earth?
I mean really, what’s with that?
War is the failure of society, so the ulitmate war would be the ultimate failure. And yet you continually hope and pray for this day to come? Why? Are the pictures coming from Iraq not enough to satisfy your bloodlust? Not enough dead babies and women in the streets for you yet?
You keep talking about “salvation” and “peace” but what you really want is blood! Lots of it!
You belong to a disgusting death cult. And the faster we toss the whole mess on the ash-heap of history, the better.
“Armageddon” is not the Death of every person. It’s the end of the world, and it’s going to end, nothing we can do to stop it. Christians don’t hope for it, but we do welcome it as a part of our existence, because we know there is something more besides this physical existence.
Sorry you’re too closed-minded to understand what we believe rather than lash out at your speculative and uninformed view on our beliefs.
