  • DrBob on Revelation 8:1 - 3 years ago
    On the opening of the 7th seal (year 2000) there will be silence for 1/2 hour. 1/2 hour of silence in Heaven equals roughly 20 years on earth. COVID is the first of many plagues that are going to be unleashed on the earth. Hold tight people things are about to get real ugly!

    DrBob,

    Please don't take time out of context. God's timing is perfect, but in 2 Peter 3:8 according to HIS word, one day with the Lord is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. John is writing this as the Lord gives it to him. John can only express time as he knows it here on earth. He has never seen the things that he is being shown and therefore is trying to express them in a way we can know. Time was made for man. God tells us that there is a time to sow and a time to reap. Here on this earth we have times and seasons. I would just ask that anyone reading this, please get into the truth of God's word, pray and ask for wisdom of understanding. What is most important is that we try to win lost souls for the kingdom of God. I have been reading God's word all my life and I cannot find IN THE WORD OF GOD, where it says that 1/2 hour of silence in Heaven equals roughly 20 years on earth. If you can tell me the exact scripture according to the WORD OF GOD, I would like to read it. God bless and thank you.

    Mrs Watson, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    Concerning the twenty minutes of silence in heaven.

    I'm sure you know Revelation is the REVEALING of Jesus Christ.

    John SIGNIFIED the words in Revelation.

    Revelation cannot be understood by using a dictionary to define the words. They have to be understood through the words of God, which are Spirit.

    The word HEAVEN in Revelation is SIGNIFIED, it's not defined as the dictionary would define it.

    God's throne and place of dwelling is in heaven. SIGNIFIED, this would mean the ELECT are HEAVEN, where SPIRIT DWELLS; CHRIST IN US.

    And there was silence (no activity of the Spirit) in HEAVEN (in mankind) for the space of twenty minutes.

    Twenty minutes is just SIGNIFIED by TIME only; the amount of time it SIGNIFIES must be found in other parts of God's word.

    Daniel 12:11 And from the TIME that the daily sacrifice (of animals) be taken away.....shall be one thousand two hundred ninety days (42 months; Christ ministry in the FLESH).

    Daniel 12:12 Blesses is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred forty five days.

    After Christ's (who is the Holy Ghost) ministry in the flesh for 42 months; there was SILENCE for 45 days in HEAVEN (in mankind), then PENTECOST (Christ second coming in the form of the Holy Ghost to indwell man and make man ONE WITH THE HOLY GHOST. Christ; CREATED IN US, of the twain to MAKE ONE.

    Amen Earl Bowman, All thru the Bible its always said by my Spirit saith the Lord .The living WORDS of God etc Today if you will hear his voice harden not your hearts.

    Brother Alex, keep proclaiming the word, the Spirit will give HIS (the ones the Father draws to him) ears to hear at HIS (the Spirits) appointed time.

    It's appointed to man ONCE TO DIED (by the sword, the words of God); then JUDGEMENT, LIFE by the TRUTH of God's word.

    WE DIE in Christ (the first death and first resurrection) before our body of flesh dies.

    Those in the resurrection of the flesh, will then have to go through the second death (DIE IN CHRIST). Just as those that had their part in the first death and resurrection.



    God is no respector of persons; but every man has an APPOINTED TIME.
