[§120] Rev 9:15: Four Angels Slay the Third Part of Men

This podcast explains what it means for the third part of men to be slain during the Second Woe known as Armageddon, as described by the John the Revelator in Revelation 9:15. In this context, the third part of men represents a specific class of men called mortal sons of perdition who are appointed unto death and destruction during the Second Woe.

[§119] Rev 9:15: Armageddon Begins at a Set Time and Date

This podcast explains the timing for the future start of Armageddon as described by John the Revelator in Revelation 9:15. He tells us that this world-ending battle will begin when four angels are loosed from the Euphrates River (bottomless pit) at a specific hour, day, month, and year.

[§118] Rev 9:13-14: Four Angels Are Loosed from the Euphrates River

This podcast explains and interprets the symbols present in Revelation 9:13-14, which describe the start of the battle of Armageddon, also known as the Second Woe of the seventh seal. The Second Woe will begin at a future day when the sixth trumpet angel sounds his trump. The symbols include four angels, who represent the unembodied and disembodied spirit sons of perdition who will be given great power on earth to influence mortal people to engage in the battle of Armageddon where one third of the symbolic number of 200,000,000 (two hundred million) men will die. The four angels (representative of evil spirits) arise from the Euphrates River, which symbolizes Spiritual Babylon, hell, the abyss and the bottomless pit from whence these evil spirits arise. The four angels in Rev 9:13-14 are distinguished from the four angels that John saw in Revelation 7:1-2.

[§117] An Overview of the Second Woe [Physical Armageddon]

This podcast provides an overview of the Second Woe of the seventh seal that will begin at a future day when the sixth trumpet angel sounds his trump. The Second Woe is a seven-year period of time when the physical battle of Armageddon will be fought. The events of the Second Woe are described by John the Revelator in Revelation 9:13 though Revelation 11:14. The battle is summarized in Revelation 9:13-21 and includes the deaths of all mortal sons of perdition collectively, who are identified as one third of the combatants involved in the war. Revelation 10 describes events at the midpoint of Armageddon when the Savior will appear as a great angel at the gathering of saints at the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman. These events are symbolically described as part of John's "Little Book Mission." After the events of Revelation 10, John's narrative continues in Revelation 11, which described events during the second half of Armageddon, including the ministry of the two witnesses in Jerusalem during the last 3 ½ years before the Second Coming, which are called the "Great Tribulation." The Two Witnesses will be killed and their dead bodies will lie unburied in Jerusalem for 3 1/2 days, during which time the Third Temple in Jerusalem will be destroyed during the "abomination of desolation" predicted by Christ on the eve of his crucifixion. The Second Woe will end when the two witnesses are resurrected in Rev 11:14.

[§116] Rev 9:12: The First Woe Ends When the Wicked Are Ripened in Sin

This podcast explains the transitional verse of scripture between the First Woe and the Second Woe found in Revelation 9:12. The transitional verse delineates a clear distinction and separation between the First and Second Woes, even though there will be a natural progression between the spiritual darkness of the First Woe and the deadly physical death and carnage of Armageddon during the Second Woe. The transition from the First Woe to the Second Woe will occur as wicked people all over the world are fully ripe in iniquity and the Lord will be fully justified in destroying them for their wickedness beginning with Armageddon during the Second Woe.

[§115] Rev 9:11: Satan Is King of the Locusts in the Bottomless Pit

This podcast explains the meaning and identity of the king of the Bottomless pit in Revelation 9:11, whom John identifies as Abaddon in Hebrew and Apollyon in Greek. John's description of this "king" as the "angel of the bottomless pit" could refer to either, or both, the unembodied spirit of Satan or the disembodied spirit of Cain, who succeeded to the power of Satan when he became perdition in mortality and then entered the postmortal spirit world with the title of Master Mahan.

[§114] Rev 9:7-10: Seven Symbolic Characteristics of the Locusts

This podcast explains the meaning of the symbols of the locusts seen by John in Revelation 9 as he describes the First Woe. In this podcast, the seven characteristics of the locusts are examined from Revelation 9:7-10. These various characteristics help to explain the spiritual darkness of the First Woe and the conditions of torment that rapidly occur during the five-month period of this woe.

[§113] Rev 9:5-6: Locusts Torment People for Five Months

This podcast explains the meaning of the symbols and images used by John in Revelation 9:5-6 to explain what happens during the future First Woe when the bottomless pit opens and symbolic locusts emerge with power on earth like scorpions that have power to torment mankind for a period of five months. The locusts represent evil spirits that will be loosed from the bottomless pit at a time of great spiritual darkness. The torments of the First Woe will prepare the world for the sixth trumpet plague called the Second Woe and Armageddon.

[§112] Rev 9:2-4: The Bottomless Pit Is Opened and Locusts Emerge

This podcast explains the meaning of the symbols and images used by John in Revelation 9:2-4 to explain what happens during the First Woe when the bottomless pit is opened and black smoke billows forth together with locusts that have the sting of a scorpion. The locusts represent the evil spirits that will be loosed from the bottomless pit at a time of great spiritual darkness symbolized by the black smoke. Unlike real locusts, these metaphorical locusts have the ability to torment mankind during the First Woe in the same way a scorpion sting causes great pain and anguish, but not death. The people singled out for this torment during the First Woe are those that do not have the seal of the living God in their forehead.

[§111] Rev 9:1: The Key of the Bottomless Pit

This podcast explains the meaning of the key used by the fifth trumpet angel in Revelation 9:1 to open the bottomless pit at the start of the First Woe to release evil spirits on the earth. The identity of the fifth angel is discussed, with Michael the archangel as the most likely identity for this angel. Chist is the ultimate keyholder over the bottomless pit and evil spirits are unleashed on earth only because Jesus Christ allows it to be so to fulfill his purposes.
