Chapter Eight,
The Tribulation ends,
Rev. 8:1-6

In my previous posts I showed "the tribulation begins" and then had to formalize the mapping of Chapter Eight because I could not remember which version of Rev. 8:1-6 I was doing. But now that the mapping is complete, then it is easy to see.

4) Rev. 8:7-13, tribulation begins and linking to Chapter Six in "I" below
1) Rev. 8:1-6, tribulation ends with the midpoint linking to Chapter Fifteen in "II" below (THIS ONE)
2) Rev. 8:7-13, judgment begins and linking to Chapter Sixteen in "II" below
3) Rev. 8:1-6, judgment ends and linking to Chapter Eleven in "II" below


Rev. 8:1-6, And when he had opened the seventh seal, (Here the beast and false prophet have been destroyed and the saints are gathered as noted in Rev. 15:2-4)
there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. (Meaning that there is no warfare taking place after the winepress of Rev. 14:17-20 and Rev. 19:20-21 wherein the beast and his false prophet were destroyed.)

a) 2And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; (These are the seven angels of Rev. 15:1)
and to them were given seven trumpets. (The trumpets are judgments that in Chapter fifteen are called the seven last plagues. And some researchers refer to these judgments as bowls.)
b)3And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; (This is Rev. 15:7 where the angel is called one of the four beasts. Remember that the four beasts are the Father, Son, Angel, and John. So the angel of Rev. 8:3 is one of these four. Since this angel does not have the loud voice, then it is either Jesus or John. Since it was given him as indicated in part "c", then this angel is John. This is the beginning of placing Lucifer in chains as indicated in Rev. 20:1-3.)
c) and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. (The incense is referred to as "vials of wrath in Rev. 15:7. These are judgments. Therefore, the incense is seven judgments that are explained in Chapter Sixteen. The golden altar is the earth that is before the throne of God.)
d) 4And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. (In this verse the smoke of the incense is the power and judgment of God Almighty coming to the earth in the judgment era. The 144,000 are endowed with power to conduct the judgment via the Savior. This is accessed via the sealing of the 144,000 to the Savior as referenced in Rev. 7:4-8.)
c) 5And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: (And the angel, that is one of the four of Rev. 1:1, (John), took the judgments of God with the power of God and gave that power to the 144,000 to conduct judgment upon the earth. This is referenced in Rev. 5:6,
b) and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. (Thus the voices of the 144,000 and the thunderings of God cheered for the cleaning of the earth from all wickedness. And this is the AWSOME VERSE in Chapter Fifteen.
a) 6And the seven angels (the 144,000) which had the seven trumpets (which had the seven judgments of God) prepared themselves to sound. (Prepared themselves to judge the population of the earth.)
 
Chapter Eight,

And I should mention the "call to arms" in Rev. 8:13 that links to the same in Rev. 14:6, and 19:17. However in the seals storyline it is not so easily seen. In fact, in the seals storyline, Rev. 6:9-11 encapsulates Rev. 18:20-19:21 from the fall of Babylon storyline.

Rev. 6:9-11 = Rev. 18:20-19:21.

As you can see, a lot of stuff in Rev. 18:20-19:21 is missing in Rev. 6:9-11. Of which is Rev. 19:17 that is the call to arms in the fall of Babylon storyline. Thus, the call to arms, although not clearly stated, is in the seals storyline. However, for the other three storylines the call to arms is clearly stated once these verses are understood.

The call to arms
in the seals storyline is within Rev. 6:9-11
in the trumpets storyline is Rev. 8:13
in the mark of the beast storyline is Rev. 14:6
and in the fall of Babylon storyline is Rev. 19:17

The Rev. 19:17 call to arms is clear, but not so much for the sisters Rev. 8:13 and Rev. 14:6. So for these sisters it takes a little observation.

1) the four trumpets of Chapter Eight are parallel to the four horsemen of Chapter Six when the trumpets are read as the seven years of tribulation and judgment. That is, both the four horsemen and the four trumpets are the fall of Babylon when both the seals and trumpets are each read as the seven years.
2) the four horsemen of Chapter Six precedes the call to arms in Rev. 6:9-11 (above).
3) Therefore, the four trumpets of Chapter Eight precede the call to arms in Rev. 8:13.
4) Since Rev. 8:13 is sister to Rev. 14:6, then Rev. 14:6 is the call to arms in the mark of the beast storyline.

Since the call to arms is identified in each of the four storylines, then the events following the call to arms can also be identified.

Beginning with the mark of the beast storyline, is the alignment verse Rev. 14:8 linking to Rev. 18:2.
and Rev. 14:12 links to Rev. 13:10,
followed by Rev. 14:13 linking to Rev. 19:9
which is then followed by the harvest of saints in Rev. 14:14-16 linking to Rev. 9:1-12,
and the winepress in Rev. 14:17-20 linking to Rev. 19:19-20
and the midpoint in Chapter Fifteen

Thus, the call to arms in the trumpets storyline is followed by the harvest of saints (Rev. 9:1-12) and the winepress (Rev. 9:13-21) when the trumpets are read as the seven years.

So basically the revelation is a large puzzle and all the pieces fit together nicely.
 
And it is curious as to why the prophecy in the revelation was so extensively hidden. And the same goes for the hidden things in the other texts of the Bible. And who are these things hidden from?

Well, naturally the these things are hidden from Lucifer and his band of demons. And these things are intended to be received by the 144,000 that are identified in the prophecy.

And these things are known by the 144,000 today. Especially the prophecies in the other texts of the Bible. But for the revelation, the individual must first know the other works. And so I say again, if these things are known in the other works of scripture, then what is the purpose of the revelation.

And to my knowledge, no one has uncovered the prophecy in the revelation. They have as myself applied the other texts of the Bible And I do not mean via cross referencing. But that the texts are understood, and that knowledge is brought into the revelation. And If that information is already known, and the revelation is not completely understood, then what is the purpose behind this cloak but for a greater prophecy than what is already understood.

And so my work dissects the revelation, to the point of what is already known. But there is something else there. And that is what I am looking for.

So for simple cross referencing, the revelation has four storylines. And for those who think they can cross reference into the other books of scripture to find the prophecy, the point is clearly missed. And if it is not cross referencing between the four storylines that reveals the prophecy, then it is a feathering of the revelation to find the prophecy. To read outside the written text into the ether of its intent. And that is only possible by permission of the Father from whom the revelation came.

And it begins as I have noted by seeing things like the call to arms in Rev. 6:9-11 that is not clearly stated. But it is there via cross referencing into the other storylines. And that may be all there is to the prophecy. However, those things are already stated in the prophets. And so the search for the Book of Revelation prophecy continues. Not the substandard wrought from cross referencing to other texts of scripture. Nor the cross referencing to the more advanced four storylines. But into the "ether of intent" that requires no cross referencing at all. And that is reading by the spirit of prophecy that all 144,000 have at their disposal.

Nevertheless, no one yet, that I am aware of, is reading by the spirit of prophecy. Therefore, it appears to me that Rev. 1:3 is yet to be fulfilled.

Rev. 1:3, Blessed is he that readeth, (this is the 144,000)
and they that hear the words of this prophecy, (this is the saints of the harvest)
and keep those things which are written therein: (that the saints of the harvest believe and thereby belong to the Davidic King)
for the time is at hand. (for the tribulation is at hand)

However, if my interpretation of Rev. 1:3 is correct, then that is all there is to the prophecy. Because, the reminder of the revelation can be found in the other texts.
