15 - Then the kings of the earth, the nobles, the commanders, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and free man hid in the caves (bunkers?) and among the rocks of the mountains. (๐ค Kings? [[..At, or in preparation for the world’s last battle — Here’s a Cross Reference to chapter 16 — the gathering to and war of Armageddon/Gehenna Valley. Revelation prophecy is not always in strict order, especially as the vision is portrayed three times, from three different angles, not in a straight line. Also, often (almost always?) something is described as its totality, first to last. Often therefor, veiling what it is. Especially the “seals” at the intro and beginning of the vision in this chapter six, ten chapters previous to this cross reference! And is how conditions in the last “hour” of apocalypse are portrayed at the beginning of the vision - does our heavenly Father love a good riddle, or does he love a good riddle!? Misunderstanding chapter six throws off the whole vision, called “sealing the vision”. ๐คChapter six is the unsealing of the scroll. Seven seals are broken open, and out come seven elements of the gospel going forth AGE, described as their effects first to last. Still in ch.16 cross reference - “Then I (John when he is an old man on an island prison) saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs. They came out of the mouth of the dragon (ch.12, an insert) out of the mouth of the (many headed geopolitical) beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. (What entity puts forth their prophecy - false - strongly trending in today’s modern world? And has a “strong delusion” that caused ‘Christendom’ to “fall away” by “seating man/anthropos as in the temple as God”/highest power? And has many more modern wonders and “miracles to deceive”..?) 14 The spirits like frogs are demonic spirits that perform portends and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them (Mt.13:30!) for the battle on the great day of God the Almighty. 15 “Look, I (Jesus) come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.” (A spiritual meaning.. And perhaps a more literal meaning. I daresay there’s some on Earth now that find theirselves needing to sleep at night in their clothes.) Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.” And Isaiah 24:20 - “The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall totter like a hut. Its corruption shall be heavy upon it, and it (the kingdom/system) will fall, and not rise again.” And, 25:4 - “You are a refuge for the poor, a stronghold for the needy in distress, a refuge from the storm, and a shade from the heat.”]]
(Back to Ch.6, and the conclusion of the description of the seal six events start to finish) — 16, And they said to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of the One seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb. 17 For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it? (Wrath as theirs because it was they who made a cause and effect - reap what you sow - universe. Not that there isn’t plenty of oppressions and grave abuses to be angry about. A hebrew word for anger, means to blow hot air out of your nose! (Sort of a fiery blast? A spiritual pun?) And remember Jesus did overturn the moneylender’s tables at the temple! And he seemed to say there’s a special woe to those harming “little ones”, but even then, I think he’s talking about the gut wrenching remorse that will torment such, initially, during “the judgment”. Also, just imagine waking from your grave into Judgment ‘Day’ and you’d been a hitler. But most.. I have to think will be happy to find theirselves alive. There’s bound to be LOTS of closure needed for many.. And for all history and nations throughout these millennia. — Preview of next weeks verses - 7:1,3 - In the vision, four angels are stationed “at the four corners of the Earth” (N,S,E,W) to “hold back the winds.. that they not harm land and trees..” — Note: that is where we are still at. Then comes interruption? Then the winds are held again for a spell?

THE REVELATION CAST
oF CHARACTERS:
Beguiling $ity Babylon, started at Tower Babel. And “like a queen” now “sits on 7 hills” (continents, i.e. is global). Her forehead/psyche, Mystery Babble - all confusion - is “responsible for all slain upon Earth”. That would be since Cain slew Abel. ..And since the adversary ‘slew’ Adam? That’s the problem with imperfection with - some - power of choice! Wrong choices will build on each other.. The potential is almost to infinity. The abyss of it.. Oppressors and oppressions are bound to occur.. Like God told Eve in Eden, man, the stronger would come to rule over woman. Which still occurs in some places today! And where it’s not, it could be on a roll again at any time. So it’s unavoidable. Isn’t it? That we have to learn Good from notGood - Perfect from “missing the mark” which seems to be a very virulent contamination. But God’s not lacking! Biggest part of the process is the remedy! And this is both individual and collective. Babble $ity (free enterprise/the farm/the general store hijacked and on steroids) “is fallen! is fallen!” is what is bound to occur. Is always and forever bound to occur. It is TOO totally imperfect! Dark alleys.. garish, glaring streets.. producing the dark alleys. “It won’t rise again”. (Rev. ch. 17 & 18)
An entity called “False Prophet” who has a “strong delusion” which “seats man [anthropos] as in the temple as god”/highest power. - This causes a “falling away” of what was once called Christendom. This “false prophet” has many modern “miracles” and wonders up his sleeve, including a coming triple 6 wonder. And he’s ENABLED some tricky events (13:13). And of course ‘he’/it has a false prophecy it is putting forth.
A many headed geopolitical beast (institution that goes beastly). It was, then wasn’t, then was again. (Yesteryear’s fulfillment was the empires of Rome.) This beast always rises from the sea of humanity.
A smaller beast from the earth (dust thou art) - a two horned office of man, which carried out the 13:13 fiery - “fire upon earth from the sky” event “in the sight of mankind” - notorious numbers 13:13, and is way more obvious than anybody(?) seems to notice (hello?) And this is the office which produces/becomes the notorious one called antiChrist..
EVENTS LIST:
Is The Day oF the Lord Soon 0r Swift - Greek word, tรกxos is translated in Rev/Apoc as ‘soon’ but means - swiftly, quickly.. Also in chapter one, Jesus said to hear, because the time was near.. Which is very accurate, as the whole vision begins when the ride of the white horse rider begins.. At the gospel’s going forth conquering and to conquer, and was openly victorious over powers and principalities.✝️
The vision is portrayed three times, each of a different angle (like curtains swept open to scenes).
- 6:1-2 to 11:19
- ch.12, vs.17 w/ mt.23:39
- 13:1 to 19:11
All within the ride of the rider on a white horse - 6:1,2 &/-> 19:11.
The First Six Events/Elements Progress Throughout The Entire Age - Like horsemen continuing their ride.. to a canter.. then a gallop.. stirring up the dust as they go. Hence the moniker of “the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse” for the first four Seals broken open on the scroll/vision.
#1 - The gospel rides forth but brings a sWord not peace.. Openly triumphing over powers and principalities. Riding a white horse.
#2 - Wars, mankind’s always unwanted companion.. (This is later “given a great and long sword”/weapon.) Riding a red horse.
(Remember these seals are described start to finish. The description ‘dumped’? lol)
#3 - Scales (as always) unbalance. And as progresses, greatly so. Black. horse.
#4 - Pale horse of pestilences including manmade which death and the grave (mass) follows after. Pale Rider.
5th “Seal” on the scroll - Political, religious executions, the blood of which cries out to God like the blood of Abel did.
6th - The long sword (given to war) is first unleashed - same 13:13 event (by an office). But when described at its intro so early on in chapter six, the entire effects, from start to ‘end’ are portrayed. So as to what it is - it’s veiled “for many days”. Hidden in plain sight - 1st occurred in 1945. By end, it’s the first mention of a fiery ‘lake’ - event, not place. [This was ch.6]
The many headed geopolitical beast (w/ the two horned office one?) comes to hold rule over the nations for 3.5 years. It blasphemes God, and persecutes many (more) [13:1-10]. Then the winds of 7:1,3 are again let hold of.
Loud, locust like (swarm? hover?) which sting from their head and tail, torment mankind for five months. (Sounds widespread.) Ch.9
Lion like, which shoot smoke and brimstone (tanks?) gather for war. Ch.9
[16:13-16, Joel 3:14] Armageddon battle (Mt.13:30) the final full blown long and great sword event(s). Earth shakes to and fro, Isaiah 24:20. Christ returns, all believers rise from the graves/tombs, his long second advent begins.
A thousand years into, Satan&Co. are released from the abyss - war once again occurs.. Fire from heaven consumes them. (Second lake of fire reference.) The resurrection of the rest of all humanity beginning judgment ‘day’. All this surely not flash in the pan, one and done events! But the last two phases of driving home the “you simply cannot stray” lesson. Truth is an “iron rod”. (An unbreakable measuring rod.)
After “the judgment” - Great ‘Day’ of Review & Closure - God declares “behold I make all new” (translators added “things” to the word “all” - Greek “pas”). There is a (fiery) universal ReGenesis. (Final and 3rd reference to lake of fire.) “All new” meaning, in Rev.22, there is narrative that is outside-of the vision, and logically, portrays initial conditions for some on the last great day called judgment and kolasis/correction, as is also true of the parable of the rich man and Lazarus.
“Behold I make all new. The tabernacle of God is with man [anthropos] and He will Tabernacle ⛺️๐️ with them..” (21:3,5). “The lion will eat straw like the ox, the bear will graze with the cow, and their young will pasture together” Isaiah 11:7. “Each tree its fruit for each month..” Rev.22
