Revelation 9,
Woes of From Fifth Trumpet To Sixth Trumpet
& The Chosen People who Refuse to Repent
The promised pastor of Shincheonji, testifies that
the prophecies in Revelation 8 and 9 have been fulfilled.
He testifies about their fulfillment with the sound of the trumpet.
Because he has seen and heard from the place where
the prophecies of Revelation fulfilled.
Revelation 9 warns the betrayers in the tabernacle of the seven golden lampstands about the plagues they will receive after the fifth and sixth angels sound their trumpets.- When the fifth angel sounds his trumpet: The star that fell from heaven opens the abyss to release smoke and many locusts. The sun and sky are darkened by the smoke. The locusts torture the betrayers, who lack God's seal, without killing them over the course of five months. The abyss in this chapter represents the churches of the destroyers. The locusts are false pastors that God is using as destroyers. a false pastor from the tabernacle of the seven golden lampstands (i.e., the star that falls from the sky) brings the locust-like destroyers from the abyss. They use ecclesiastical laws and authority (i.e., their poisonous scorpion tails) to darken the spirits (air) of the betraying pastors (the sun) and their people in the tabernacle and to torture them for five months.
- When the sixth angel sounds his trumpet: A voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God says, "Set free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!" These four angels who have two hundred million mounted troops with them, have been kept to kill a third of mankind. The horses of the mounted troops have heads on their tails. Fire, smoke, and sulfur come out of their mouths to kill people. The four angels bound in hell (the Euphrates) are set free to kill the spirits of the betrayers with the authority and doctrines of the destroyers(i.e., the fire, smoke and sulfur). They accomplish this through the two hundred million soldiers on horseback who represent the flesh (horses) and evil spirits (riders) who belong to Satan.These horses are pastors(flesh) who belong to evil spirits and their riders are evil spirits. The heads of the horses are seven pastors (Rev 17:9-10), and the tails are false prophets(i.e., pstors who betrayed) that belong to those seven pastors(Isa 9:15, Rev 17:11). The fire, smoke and sulfur that come out of mouths of the horses are the authority and the doctrines of the false pastors. These false pastors spew out lies that kill people's spirits.
The chosen people, because of their betrayal, are thrown from the tabernacle out to the gentiles. Yet, in spite of the many plagues they receive, they still refuse to repent. The betrayers refuse to repent because they are held captive under the authority of death. Their spirits have been darkened and they do not understand what is happening.
The horses in Revelation 9 are pastors who belong to evil spirits.
These horses and the four living creatures in Revelation 6 belong to different groups. Believers must distinguish this difference to escape spiritual injury. Everyone must meet the promised pastor, who comes in the position of apostle John who speaks on behalf of Jesus, and who saw and heard all the events of Revelation.
In Revelation 9, Jesus judges the chosen people from the church of the seven golden lampstands that betrayed (Rev 6), and these betrayers enter a gentile church. Even after seeing a third of their spirits killed there they still refuse to repent.
We, Shincheonji, testify that the prophecies in Rev 8, 9 have been fulfilled. We in Shincheonji testify about their fulfillment with the sound of the trumpet. One can know whether this is true by comparing the promises in the Bible, the prophecies in Revelation, with the things that fulfilled according to those prophecies(physical fulfillment).
