Revelation 6:12 I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, 13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. 14 The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
15 Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. 16 They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits 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?”
Once again, here's the link to the commentary I use.Now that we've read the commentary.... we can breathe a sigh of relief. The earthquake hasn't happened yet.... or is it an earthquake? The ground shook so badly the stars fell from the sky and black smoke rose from the site.
There was recently an earthquake in Turkey. 50,000 humans died in that quake. No stars fell from the sky. Please consider this... it's just a thought of mine... unproven... but please consider this.... Does the earthquake and shaking of the quake move apartment buildings into mountains of rubble? Is the smoke that rises from that area, appear black as coal, hiding the heavens? Would white hot debris appear to be stars falling from the sky?
Have you seen the craters in Gaza? Can you imagine what it must be like to survive a bunker buster that leaves the size hole we have been witnessing on TV? People are hiding in caves.... Are the caves like cavities in buildings that are still strong enough to offer some shelter, like the caves in a mountainside only caves in the cityscape? Wasn't a general from Hamas just reported to have been taken out in one of the bombings. Is that what verse 15 was talking about? Now that Lebanon has joined the battles, will there be earthquakes moving mountains of rubble and obscuring the sky? Will the iron dome keep everyone safe?
Did John have a vision of the bombing of Gaza, Israel, and Lebanon, and figure it to be an earthquake because it was so much more violent than anything humans could inflict on each other when John was writing what he saw?
How would John have described a nuclear blast?
If God lets loose an earthquake in Gaza that would shake the teeth out of a human's mouth.... would that cause the stars to fall?
I don't see a timeline.... but I do see death and destruction.... and I hope I don't have to be on earth when this destruction takes place.
Earthquake????
