The seventh seal, you know there
were seven seals on that book that the Lord Jesus took out
of the hand of God on the throne, took out of the hand of Him that
sat on the throne. We've done dealt with six seals,
here's the seventh seal. And let me just read the first
seven verses and then I'm gonna go back and we're gonna take
a little review. 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 which stood before God, and to them
were given seven trumpets. And another angel came and stood
at the altar having a golden censer. 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.
And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of
the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. And the angel took the censer,
filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth. And
there were voices and thunders and lightnings and an earthquake.
And the seven angels, which had the seven trumpets, prepared
themselves to sound. The first angel sounded, and
there followed hail, fire mingled with blood, and they were cast
upon the earth, and the third part of the trees was burned
up, and all green grass was burned up. Now, before we get into this
this evening, I want to take a little review of where we've
been so far. And these seven trumpets are
trumpets of warning, warning. The trumpets of warning, warning
of the judgment, judgment to come. But I told you at the outset,
Revelation is a history of the church that the Lord Jesus bought
with his own blood. And it talks about his coming,
his saving them. And He's keeping them in all
the trials and tribulations that they have in this world. And
it goes over and over and over this thing, the same thing again
and again. And it gets a little deeper at
times, it gets a little lighter at times. But when we started
out, we saw the seven lampstands. We saw the seven golden lampstands.
Seven golden lampstands. And our Lord Jesus Christ was
walking among those golden lampstands. The Son of Man, He was moving
among those lampstands. And we heard His voice. And He
spoke to seven churches. And as He spoke to those seven
churches, He admonished them, rebuked some of them, said words
of reproof. said words of encouragement,
and also made wonderful, wonderful promises to some of them. And
then you know we see him standing and knocking. Now when we see
him standing and knocking, it's not like preachers present him.
When our Lord knocks, he said he wants to come and suck, have
communion with. And he knocks by the word, that's
how he knocks. He don't stand with a hand like
this here, begging to be let in. He knocks with His Word. That's the only way in the world
He's ever worked in this world is by His Word. He created the
world by His Word. He spake and it was done. He
commanded and it stood fast. For every way of the Lord by
His Word is settled in heaven. So He speaks by His Word. He
speaks by His Gospel. And he opens men's heart with
the gospel, the word of God. So you know scriptures interpret
scriptures, never contradicts itself. And then you know he's
the light of the world because his light is shining through
these churches. And you know he's the light of
the world, he's the one that gives us the light, he's the
one that gives us the revelation, he's the one that gives us the
ability to see. A blind man can't see light.
Blind men don't know colors. A blind and a deaf man can't
hear. So Christ as the light, he gives us light as his church,
as his people. And then our Lord Jesus, and
then also said this, right at the beginning, let him that readeth
understandeth. And do not let him add to or
take away from the prophecy of this book. Don't let him do it.
I wouldn't be in a man's shoes for nothing that would change
one verse of scripture in God's word. Not one, not one. Now we're taken back in history
to the very moment where our Lord ascended to glory. Remember
there in chapter four, a door was opened in heaven. John said,
I seen a door open. And then when he saw that door
open, he saw a throne. And one that sat on that throne
had a rainbow around it. And he sat on this throne and
there was a sea of glass around it. And he had jasper stones,
and sardis stones, which is fiery red, and then he had these white,
glorious stones, like diamonds, and brilliant as diamonds. And
so he's sitting there on his throne, and Christ, when he comes
there, and all the elders are gathered around, and all the
Angels are gathered around them, and you hear these thunders and
lightnings and flashes that goes on around them because God, wherever
He's at, I mean, there's something going on. He lights up everything.
And so all the heavenly beings, they start praising Him. Remember,
they praised Him for His sovereignty. They praised Him for the salvation
that He Himself gives. And they praised Him as He sat
on the throne. And John saw a book of him that
sat on that throne, sealed with seven seals, sealed within and
without. And John began to weep, and he
said, oh, there's no man worthy. There's nobody in heaven, there's
nobody on earth, there's nobody anywhere that's worthy to take
that book and open it up. And that book is the Word of
God, the purpose of God, the decree of God. And everything
he's going to do in this world. And then I just said to John,
I said, John, stop crying. I said, there's one. The Lion of the tribe of Judah. The root, North Spring of David.
I said, he's able to take that book. And our Lord Jesus Christ,
I'm telling you to go up into the very presence of God, and
I tell you, he went up and took that book. He had such authority
and such power and such glory. He went up and took that book
out of the hand of God. And then he started opening them
old seals. And he opened all those seals up. And then we see
that as he opened that first seal. And the first seal that's
open, we see a wild horse. And on that wild horse sits a
man. And on that man he had a bear in his hand and a sword in his
hand. And that he went forth conquering and to conquer. Of
course that's the Lord Jesus Christ. Because it said he prevailed
over that book. And He went forth conquering
and to conquer. And He's going to keep on conquering
until this world is conquered, and every knee is going to bow,
and every tongue is going to confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord to the glory of God. He's going to do that. Oh, let
men say, well, He ain't going to conquer me. Oh, listen, it
ain't nothing for Him to conquer you. He can bend you into yourself Oh, listen, he can put his hand
on your neck anytime he wants to and put you on your face and
make you wish you'd never been born. Oh, he can do it. And I tell you what, Lord, put
your hand on my neck all you want to and put your feet on
me and do whatever you want to. I want you to rule over me. I'm
grateful he conquered his people. He's not got no rebels in his
kingdom. He ain't got no rebels. And he
conquered them. And then there's another horse,
a red horse that come after the white horse. And that red horse,
he took the peace from the earth. Took the peace from the earth.
Like our Lord Jesus said, I came not to give peace, but to set
a man against himself a sword against him. And then there comes
a a bay horse, and that bay horse
showed us how hated and persecuted the church is by the world, and
how they've always hated Christ and his people. And then there
was the pale horse, pitiful looking horse that come, and that pale
horse was death, and he had death with him. And then we come and
we saw the souls of the saints that were under the altar. And
those souls that were under that saint, under that altar, they
cried, how long, my Lord, before you avenge our blood? How long? How long? And God said, I tell
you what, I will avenge the slaughter of the saints. And then, you
know, before the judgment, before these trumpets start sounding,
Another seal's opened up, and you remember there in chapter
7, when the scripture says that God come and said, He sealed
all His saints on their foreheads. He sealed them. He sealed them. What did He seal them for? Seal,
you know, I told you what the seals stand for. And I tell you,
He come and sealed all of His saints, and He sealed them against
all harm. Nothing that ever happens in
this world is going to harm them. And you know why it's not gonna
harm him? Because he said all things, all things work together
for good. But not for everybody. Not for
everybody. All things work together for
good to them that are, first of all, called of God. You gotta
be called of God. Huh? And called according to his purpose.
That's the only people that things work together for good. And oh
my, and then you remember when that elder said to John, he saw
a multitude, no man can remember, and their robes was white, and
washed white in the blood of the Lamb. And that elder asked
John, said, where'd these people come from? John said, down north,
down north, I don't know. He said, these are that came
out of great tribulation, and washed their robes white in the
blood of the Lamb. And I'll tell you what, that
tribulation means a lifetime of trouble that you go through
in this world. Now I know that there's a doctrine
that teaches, you know, that people, and I've mentioned this
before, that God's gonna sneak his people out of here and everybody
didn't live, but I just gotta stay here through seven years
of great tribulation. Now where they got that, I have
no idea. It don't tell us how long the tribulation is. It just
says they come out of great tribulation. And I know this, that if they, and I've told you
this before, these fellows that preach that and teach that, you
know that the Lord's going to take his people out of here.
Sneak, come in there as a thief in the night, sneak them out.
And then all the people that didn't live right, and all the
lost people, they're going to go into hell. And everybody that
didn't live right, and didn't, You know, didn't let Christ be
Lord their life, and backslidden, and all that kind of stuff. They
gotta go through seven years of tribulation, and if they'll
endure through that seven years of tribulation, then they get
to go to heaven. Oh my, hell ain't half full,
I'm telling you it ain't. Man would lie to you about your
soul, lie from the Bible, he'd lie to you about anything. Ain't
that right? All right, now let's look here.
In chapter eight, let's go through these things. And now, all those
saints that come out of that great tribulation rest and rejoice
in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. God wipes away their
tears and leads them. And here he talks about the judgment,
the trumpets of judgment. Trumpets of judgment. And these
judgments, he said, and when he had opened the seventh seal,
this is the last seal, Silence in heaven I saw the seven angels
which stood before God and to them were given seven trumpets
The trumpets the trumpets of judgments and what these are
it goes through chapter 8 all the way through verse 11 these
seven trumpets as they are blown one at a time and there are series
of happenings things that happen in this world and They'll happen
again and again and again and again as long as the world stands
these things just happen over and over and over again and over
and over and over again. They're not single and separate
things like a lot of people think this happens and then that's
it. No, no, things happen over and over and over again because
these trumpets of judgment. You know, but they're separate
events and they're roles that may be seen any day of the year
in any part of the earth. And every day when there's trumpets
of sound and every seal, there's a trumpet because he's got seven
trumpets. And these trumpets, these trumpets,
they're trumpets of judgment, warning of judgment to come.
And their retribution, God's retribution to the wicked, to
those who oppose the Lord Jesus Christ, to those who oppose his
church, to those who oppose his word. And yet also God uses these
means, these trumpets, to call the ungodly to himself, call
them to repentance. And these trumpets are not the
final judgment. They're just full of warning,
that's what they are. You know when you hear a trumpet,
and that scripture tells us this all the time, said the trumpet
is given to warn. Trumpets given to warn. He told
Ezekiel, son of man, set the trumpet to thy mouth. I made
you a watchman. And when you see trouble coming,
blow that trumpet. They blew trumpets before they
went around the walls of Jericho and it fell down. And then these trumpets, they
warn. He said, set the trumpet to thy mouth, oh son of man,
and cry out and warn. And the trumpets affect only
a third part of the earth, not the whole earth, just a part
of it. And you know it tells us over in 1 Corinthians chapter
14, it says there, if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who
shall prepare himself to battle? Brother Henry had a message on
that, sounding a clear note. What do you mean a clear note?
If I blew the trumpet, you wouldn't have a clue what note I was blowing.
And I wouldn't either. But if you know the gospel, and
you preach the gospel, you're sounding a clear note. It's a
note that everybody can understand, everybody can hear. You know
that fella, you heard that fella just bump that, bump, bump, bump,
bump on that big old bass fiddle? He said, boy, why don't you move
around? He said, I found the one that
works, and I'm staying right there. That's what we do. We found that,
we found that one note, and we're gonna pluck that one note. We're
gonna pluck one note, that's what we're gonna do. Now, the
trumpet's worn, but there's, look over here in Revelations
15, in verse seven with me. Let me show you something. Trumpet's
worn. But he has vows, and these vows
are called bows, they're also called vows. And look at what
it said here in verse seven. Chapter 15, verse seven. One
of the first four beasts gave unto the seven angels, now they
had seven trumpets to start with, now they're given seven golden
vows full of the wrath of God. When the bowels are poured out,
that's when God's wrath is poured out. The trumpet's warned of
the judgment to come. When those bowels are turned
out, those vows are turned out and turned over, and that's the
wrath of God. Look what he said down in verse
one of chapter one, 16. And I heard a great voice out
of the temple saying to the seven angels, go your ways and pour
out the vows of the wrath of God upon the earth. So the trumpet's
worn, and when those vials are turned up, that's when God's
wrath is poured out. God's wrath is poured out. And
these trumpets of judgment affect everything in the universe, everything
of God's earth, and everything out there, the land, the sea,
the heavens. Everything under the sea, everything
about it, the stars, the sun, the moon, the stars, all of them.
And then what he's telling me is there's no safe place for
the wicked. No safe place for the wicked. And yet there's an
order to these trumpets. When we go through these trumpets,
and as they blow these trumpets one at a time, the first four
trumpets, as they're blown, They affect the physical being of
the wicked. They affect the physical being,
their environment. But the last three trumpets,
when they're blown, they affect his spiritual being, his spiritual
health, and what's his spiritual torment. And hell, the scriptures
tells us hell is let loose. And look down here in verse,
chapter eight and verse seven. Let's look at this just a minute,
and then I'll get into these first few verses. When that first
angel sounded, blew his trumpet, there followed hell and fire
mingled with blood. You remember when Moses was down
in Egypt, and hell and fire fell from the sky? You know Moses,
that's one of the things that he did, that was great darkness. And that's what happens, there
followed darkness, and there followed hell, and there followed
locusts, and there followed blood. And I tell you, that hail and
fire mingles with blood. And when it talks about the locusts
being let loose, now these are not little things, these are
pictures of things. The locusts, you know, they hurt
grass, but this time the locust is going to be something sent
to torment the wicked. Not trees, but men. And these
judgments upon the wicked, they're persecuted, and you know what
happens? You know where all this happens at? As he said, in the
city where Christ was crucified. That's the spiritually called
the city, Sodom and the city where Christ was crucified. But
they don't harm believers. Now, here's the seventh seal being
opened. Look there in verse 1. I hope that opened our, remembered
us and reminded us of where we've been so far. And when he had
opened the seventh seal, and the Lord Jesus is the one opening
these seals now, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. And when
he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven.
Silence in heaven. What is this silence? What is
this silence? I have preached before us that
I think this silence is when the saints, God brings all the
saints home at one time, that they all stand in astonishment
and silence while God brings his elect down through the golden
streets and they, angels, stand in utter astonishment and silence
while we walk through there. But that's really not what it
is. It makes good preaching, but that's not what it means,
I don't think. The Old Testament gives us the
answer. Now you keep this and look over Zechariah. You know
Malachi is the first old book. Malachi is right before Matthew
and then Zechariah is right before Malachi. Look in Zechariah chapter
two and verse 13. You know, in all, it says this
so many different places, when the Lord get ready to move, it
says, let the earth be silent before the Lord. God has his
way in the whirlwind, let the earth be silent before the Lord.
So when God's fixing to arise in judgment, he said, everybody
be still, everybody be quiet. And he says down here in verse
13, be silent, O all flesh, before the Lord, for he is raised up
out of his holy habitation. He said, when God's fixing to
raise up to do something, let the earth be silent. And he said,
there's silence here. God's fixing to bring judgment.
God's gonna go forth in judgment. And I'll tell you, it mentions
this so many times. And I tell you, when God's going
forth in judgment, it's introduced by a reverence to silence. And
I think that's one thing, and that's what I love about people
that listen to the gospel. They listen quietly. They pay
attention to what's being said. They want to listen. And I tell
you what, and when God's dealing with us, we stay silent before
Him. He can deal with us any way He
wants to. We go stay silent. Put His hand on us heavy. Put
His hand on us heavy. As old Scott said, He'll put
it down heavy on you. And you know what we do? We just
keep silent. We're not going to complain.
We're not going to whine. We're not going to find fault
with Him. When He arises to do something, we say, Lord, do Your
will. We're like when he told Eli,
Eli said to Samuel, tell me what God told you. He said, God said
he's gonna kill you two sons. You thought Eli said, oh my,
he just fell on his face, started biting his finger. Now said,
oh Lord, what am I gonna do, what am I gonna do? Nope, that's
not what happened. He said, it's the Lord. Let him do what seemeth
good. And that's what you call keeping
silent. All right. And so this silence
is introduced. This silence in heaven is introduced
to prepare us for the awful judgment about to be told to us. And this
silence makes manifest, makes manifest God rising in judgment
much more, much more impressive. It's like, you know, when the
first storm comes, sometimes it'll get so calm right before
a storm. And that's what's happening here.
And heaven itself stands in amazement. Because God says wrath is a strange
work. He said, why will you perish?
Why will you perish? Why will you perish? He stood
and wept over Jerusalem. So He doesn't delight in punishing
men. He doesn't delight in those things.
And John sees seven angels there in verse 2. I saw the seven angels. They were standing there, and
these seven angels, they stood before God. They stood before
God Almighty, and look what it says, and to them were given
trumpets. They didn't have them, they didn't
belong to them, God Christ gave them trumpets. And He gave them
all, every single one of them has a trumpet. They all have
a trumpet. And these trumpets, and we'll
go through them eventually, and another angel come down. Another
angel appears. This man, this one here don't
have a trumpet. Another angel comes down. This
is not one of the seven. He comes down, and he stood at
the altar. You remember those saints that
were under the altar that cried out, Oh Lord, how long, how long,
how long? And he stood at that altar, and
he had a golden censer, just like that golden censer that
was in the tabernacle. You remember that golden censer
in the tabernacle? That the incense, you know, they
kept the fire going, the incense went up, typifying the intercession
of Christ. Well, they had this golden censer. And look what it says, that was
given unto him much incense. They had that thing, somebody
gave him, Christ gave him a bunch of incense to fill that censer
up with incense. And look what it says now. And
it said it's given to him. And there was given unto him
much incense. He didn't have this offering
for himself. He didn't bring this offering himself. And the
angel, beloved, look what he says now. That he should offer
this incense out of this golden censer, offer it with the prayers
of all saints, listen to this, upon the golden altar before
the throne. Everything's gold up there, you
know. And this incense that's given to that angel, that represents
the prayers, intercession of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because
the only way in the world our prayers can be accepted before
God. is through the intercession and
the incense of our Lord Jesus Christ. You and I have never
prayed a prayer that God would even pay attention to if it wasn't
for the incense of Christ and the intercession of Christ. Ain't that right? Our prayers
need to be wept over. And that's what he's talking
about here. He gave him this much incense. And that incense
is this intercession of Christ going up. And so he takes the
prayers of all the saints and he offers it up with that incense. And what makes those prayers
acceptable is that incense is what makes it acceptable. And
the only thing that makes any prayer you and I ever pray, from
all that have mercy, until like Brad prayed, and like the men
pray in the study, and like somebody stands here and prays, the only
thing that'll ever make a prayer acceptable for God is the intercession,
the fragrance of thy love, Jesus Christ, in the presence of God. I hear men pray, and I tell you
what, I've been greatly, greatly blessed by men praying. Greatly
blessed. You all remember that Bruce Croucher
was here one time and he got up there and read one verse of
scripture. Just one verse of scripture. And God blessed that
verse of scripture so much in that meeting and then he prayed.
And I tell you, you could feel the presence of the Lord all
over that building that day because God blessed him to pray. But
you know what made that prayer a blessing to us? It's Christ! Never ever. This angel didn't
have no offering. The incense was given to him.
The golden cistern was given to him. He had nothing of his
own. Even the angels had nothing that
belonged to them except what Christ gives them. And you know there's elect angels.
But I'll tell you something, Christ never died for one angel,
never shed his blood for one angel, but he shed his blood
for sinners, for men and women who desperately need somebody
to do something for them, because they can't do nothing for themselves.
And thank God that we've got somebody that will intercede
and take our prayers and offer them to God, and our Lord Jesus
Christ takes our prayers and make them acceptable before God.
He takes our tears and makes our tears even acceptable. And oh my, I tell you what, this
is our Lord's intercession for His church, for His blessed people. And because of His death and
because of His blood, He sanctifies and purifies our prayers. He
certainly does. Oh my. And these saints, listen
to me, they're praying. You know what they're praying
in? Because they're in great tribulation. You know, I don't know about
you all, but I have enough trouble, you know, my flesh is just a
great tribulation to me. My flesh is a great tribulation
to me. Is yours to you? It gets so rotten
sometimes, I say, that thing stinks so bad, I mean, you get
to loathe in yourself. So if we loathe ourselves, and
our sinfulness in our flesh, what makes you think anything
we could ever do would be acceptable to God without Christ? But I tell you what, It has to
be incensed with the intercession of our Lord Jesus Christ. Oh
my. And once those prayers are incensed,
look what it says here now in verse four. And the smoke of
that incense, and that smoke of that incense, which came up
with the prayers of the saints, watch it now, ascended up Went
all the way up before God out of that angel's hands. He's holding that censer and
all that smoke. With going up and sending up before God with
the prayers of the saints. And I'll tell you what, that
means our prayers are heard in heaven because of the very presence
of our Lord Jesus. You see, our Lord sees our sighs. He sees our sighs. How many times
have you sighed? Were the days just been so and
you sighed? How many times during the day
has tears come to your eyes? As you thought of something,
remembered something. How many days, times a day does
tear come to your eye? How many times have you suffered
in your body? Hard to get out of bed, hard
to get to moving. How many times have you laid
and mourned before God over your sinfulness? And God hears and
we make these requests in these great tribulations. And our Lord
hears those requests. He hears those things. And He
hears the thanksgiving of His children. He hears the praise
of His children. And I tell you, He loves His
children and He's going to listen to everything they've got to
say. And in fact, the Scriptures tells us that the Holy Spirit
interprets our words that can't be uttered and interprets them
for us. That's what He has to do. He
has to interpret our words. Because sometimes we don't have
words, nothing but sighs and groans. Huh? I remember a dear,
dear sister. Her husband went on to be with
the Lord. Her husband would lay at night
and he'd just go, She finally told him, she said,
you know what you do? He said, you just go. And I can't go to sleep because
you're sighing so hard. You're sighing so hard. He said,
I didn't know I was doing that. But he'd just go to bed and he'd
be burning, preaching. He finally said, well, next time
I do that, poke me with the elbow. But you know, that's what happens.
But God hears every sigh. Never sigh. Never sigh. And the prayers are
heard. Look what it says. The prayers
are heard. They are sent up before the angel, before God out of
the angel's hand. And their prayers are heard.
The censer is emptied. It's emptied. All the incense
is gone. And what does that angel do there
in verse 5? He takes that that's on that altar that he started
that fire with, that incense with. He filled that thing with
fire off the altar. Off that altar. And he filled
that censer up and he took that censer and he filled it full
of fire and cast it into the earth. And we know that fire
always represents the judgment of God. Where God accepts our
prayers for Christ's sake, He turns around and takes all of
our prayers, and he fills that censer with fire, and he casts
it to the earth, showing that God's going to judge this bunch,
because he hears the prayers of his people. And I'll tell
you what, and he empties it on the earth, and casts it to the
earth. And look at what it says there
again in verse 5, there were voices. He heard a bunch of voices. A bunch of voices began to talk. And that was thunderings. Thunderings. We saw a bunch of thunder last
week. Lightnings. Grey storms. And listen to this. And an earthquake. That's just
what happened when he threw the fire down. That's what I mean. These things happen over and
over and over again. He hears the prayers of his saints
and then he sends judgments as the answer. And I tell you, those
voices down there, they listened. And they heard thunders and lightnings
and an earthquake. You know, I don't know how you
feel about storms. Now, I don't want to be in a
tornado. I don't. You know, if I can find a place to hide, I'm
going to hide. I am. But now, I like nothing better
than sitting somewhere and watching a big storm, watching a big thunderstorm. I like to sit on the porch and
watch that thunder, and watch that lightning, and when I hear
lightning, I go, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, see how
many miles it all for, because you know that's what causes it.
And I love to hear it. So thunders and lightning, that
ain't gonna hurt us. An earthquake ain't going to
hurt us. But that's just God. That's just Him emptying that
censer. That's what happens. Just enter
that censer. And then look what it says then.
And then in verse 6, and I'll quit. And the seven angels, which
had the seven trumpets, listen to this. They all prepared themselves
to sound. They all got ready. to blow their
trumpet. And ain't neither one of them
Gabriel either. They said, Gabriel, blow your trumpet. Neither one
of these fellows are Gabriel. But they all got them trumpets,
seven of them. And they're gonna blow them trumpets.
And we'll see what happens with those trumpets. Our Father, oh, our blessed,
blessed Savior, Our great God and Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ. Lord, you're so kind to us. You're
so gracious to us. You're so wonderfully good to
us. You bless us, Lord, in spite of ourselves. And we understand
you bless us for Christ's sake. And Lord, we thank you for it.
Oh, God, we're so thankful to have your presence. So thankful
for your word. So thankful for your people.
and their love for your word, their appreciation for your word,
