Some treat Revelation 10 as their hobby and spread their doctrinal heresies. Again we have to ask, “What does the Scripture actually say in Revelation 10?” Do we find therein any reference to the Bridegroom or to the Bride? Of course not! Revelation 10 will take place in the precise consecutive order, verse for verse, as it is written! The mighty Angel of the covenant comes down clothed with a cloud, with the rainbow upon His head, His face shining like the sun. In His hand He has an open book, “and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth.” That will be a reality. “And he cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth; and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.” This will take place literally, too. No one on earth has a right to spiritualise this important event.

Should God need to ask permission from anyone to speak to us by His Own Word as it is written? For better understanding I shall use the Hebrew translation of David H. Stern, where the word shofar is used for our word “trumpet”. Without making a comment, all will see Revelation 10 in the right light. We must recognise that the trumpet angels are the actual part of the seventh seal. We must never stop after only reading verse 1 in chapter 8, but continue with the contents of what the seventh seal actually expresses.

“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who stood before God, and to them were given seven shofars.” (8:1-2).

Then follows, “And the seven angels who had the seven shofars prepared themselves to sound.” (verse 6).

“The first angel sounded …” (verse 7).

“And the second angel sounded …” (verse 8).

“And the third angel sounded …” (verse 10).

“And the fourth angel sounded …” (verse 12).

In the second part of verse 13 we read, “Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabitants of the earth by reason of the other voices of the shofars of the three angels which are yet to sound.”

“And the fifth angel sounded …” (9:1).

“And the sixth angel sounded …” (9:13).

Please note the key words “voice” and “sound” with the shofars

After the six trumpet angels have sounded the shofar, only one remains. Therefore we have the special announcement, “But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel when he shall begin to sound his shofar, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” (10: 7). The fulfilment we find in chapter 11:15: “And the seventh angel sounded his shofar; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdom of this world is become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ, and he shall reign for ever and ever.” The entire matter is in perfect order. There are 7 angels to the churches. And there are 7 trumpet angels. By the God-ordained ministry in the days of the voice of the seventh church age messenger, the mysteries of the Word were made known, from Genesis to Revelation. The Bride feeds on the Word, the spiritual food that was stored in. She is in preparation for the coming of the Bridegroom, receiving living, rapturing faith. Then at the appointed moment she will be taken up into Glory for the marriage supper (Rev. 19:1-9).

When the seventh trumpet angel will sound his shofar, the mystery of God will be finished and the reign of Christ is being announced. Thus it is written and so it will be. Oh, how perfect is God’s plan of Redemption made known unto us! Glory be to God on high! Who is the man that dares to contradict God and His Word and put out of force what the Holy Scripture says so plainly, substituting it with home-made interpretations? Every Word of God will remain the truth in the mouth of every servant of the Lord, (1 Ki. 17: 24)!

We always have to ask, “What does the Scripture say?” and find the answer therein. The key-word in Rev. 10 is roar. According to verse 3 the Lord Who is the Lion of the tribe of Judah (Rev. 5:5) will roar. In Hosea we read, “They shall walk after the Lord: he shall roar like a lion; when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.” (11:10).

The prophet Joel foretold, “The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.” (3:16). Without fail we clearly see the connection to the children of Israel when the Lord shall roar like a lion.

To complete the list, as all things must be established by the testimony of at least two or three witnesses, we shall also call upon Amos, the prophet, “And he said, The Lord will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem …” (1:2).

In Revelation 10 no angels, no Bride accompany the Lord. Just as Joseph in the Old Testament left his gentile bride/wife in the palace and made himself known the second time to his brethren, so the Lord as the Angel of the covenant will leave His gentile Bride/wife in Glory and slip down and manifest Himself to His brethren, the Jews. “She was in the palace when he made himself known to his brethren. And the Gentile Bride, the wife — after Jesus being rejected by His Own people, He has taken a Gentile Bride and will take Her from here to the palace to His Father’s House in Glory for the Wedding Supper and will slip back down to make himself known to His brethren, the 144,000. There He stands! And remember, look at the symbols perfectly.” (Quote: Seal-book, The first Seal, pg. 154). Only then, when He as the original owner will place one foot on land and one on sea, He shall roar like a lion. And that is precisely the moment the seven thunders will utter their voices. Thus saith the Lord in His Word!

Anyone claiming that this is already in the past denies the Scripture as the final authority, and is obviously deceived by a wrong spirit, believing rather in interpretation instead of the true fulfilment. Not for one moment will a true man of God with a divine commission believe explanations about Revelation 10 or any other scripture. No lie originates in the Truth, and every private interpretation is a lie.

It is absolutely necessary to leave every scripture as it is. When the Lord comes to take His Bride, He is spoken of as Bridegroom. When He comes to Israel, He is the Angel of the covenant (Ex. 3:7-10; Acts 7:30-38 a. o.). As it was at the beginning of the New Testament, so is it now. Every promised event is correctly placed with its fulfilment.
