Revelation 9,

.

Part 5:

“The Angel of the Bottomless Pit!”

To read Part 1, click here… October 6th (Revelation 9: Locusts)

.

.

.

.

What most Christians are not aware of, is that the Book of Revelation is all about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That’s why it is titled, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ”. Revelation 1:1

.

And why is there so much confusion about Revelation?

.

The problem is, like so much of the Bible, Revelation is written in types and symbols. Consequently, the greater portion of the Church has been locked out of most all the Book of Revelation!

NOT SEARCHING THE BIBLE

.

For instance, if the average evangelical churchgoer wishes to discover what locusts http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:A_U.S._Army_UH-60_Black_Hawk_helicopter_and_a_CH-47F_Chinook_helicopter,_both_with_Bravo_Company,_3rd_Battalion,_25th_Aviation_Regiment,_25th_Combat_Aviation_Brigade,_prepare_to_conduct_rappel_operations_with_130618-A-UG106-454.jpgrepresent in Chapter 9, they cannot simply do a word-search about locusts.

.

If they did, they would soon discover that locusts represent God’s judgment on worldly-minded Christians as their earthly as well as spiritual riches get “eaten up” in various ways.

.

But because they are locked out, they vainly search newspapers and decide that those prophetic locusts will actually be something like black helicopters.

THE GOSPEL IN TYPES & SYMBOLShttp://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Burgkmair_whore_babylon_color.jpg

.

And because of this devilish and non-biblical hermeneutic which prevents them from spiritualizing away all the types and symbols found in Revelation, the vast majority of churchgoers cannot discover that Revelation is merely the Gospel of Jesus Christ, howbeit veiled in Old Testament types and symbols.

Now let’s examine another component from this chapter in hopes of understanding this composite beast in Revelation 9: let’s examine, “The Destroyer”, in verse 11…

“And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.”

Revelation 9:11 

.

This above verse from Revelation 9:11 tells us that these composite beasts of the first verses of that chapter, are ruled over by their king, “Abaddon” and “Apollyon”. We are told that these names mean “Destroying Angel” in Hebrew, and merely, “Destroyer” in Greek.

.

In Exodus 12:23, God sent “the Destroyer” to slay anyone who didn’t have the blood of the covenant on their doorpost.

“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?”

1st Peter 4:17

.

And so, we might conclude that this Revelation 9 “Destroyer” has a name in both Greek and Hebrew for all the reasons given in this article: to destroy both the churches as well as the entire world

.

So, in conclusion, let it be said that this composite beast in that chapter, as well as his king are concerning God’s chastisement on His people, but also upon the whole world. It is the time of Judgment for all!

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY!”

Proverbs 25:5

.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lightmatter_burningman.jpgThe Good News is that the hour still remains for any and all to plead for deliverance from total destruction. Oh yes, we must all go through the fire & brimstone of tribulation. But peradventure, we can say along with Job_23:10…“But He knoweth the way that I take: when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.”

.

Yes, God will sit as a purifier of gold (faith & love) within the hearts of His chosen ones. 

“Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

Every man’s work shall be made manifest:

for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire;

and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.”

1st Corinthians 3:12, 13

.

And so, let’s use the remaining days weeks and months to make sure that our characters have a foundation: a foundation of “gold, silver, precious stones”!

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

THE HOLY GHOST RIDER CONSTELLATION

.

This newest Signs Of Heaven Constellation (Fall, 2013) is by far the faintest of constellations, but is a very incredible and awesome one in a number of ways (which this article will explain).

.

.Holy-Ghost-Rider in the Western night-sky

It is primarily comprised of the Camelopardalis Constellation (head and upper back), plus about 5 stars from the Cassiopeia Constellation (his leg), plus some random stars. It appears as an outline of a rider. Only the back of his head is detailed. And his back and the back of his legs are also detailed. Both sides of his arm are visible, and his hand is gripping the horse’s mane, and that is detailed by three stars (which are also part of the horse’s mane). The rider is in a position vaguely similar to a race-horse jockey. The two brightest stars in this constellation, are from the Cassiopeia Constellation, and are part of his leg. All the rest of the stars are very faint, and must be viewed on a very starry night.
