The Fifth Trumpet: The Locusts From The Bottomless Pit



Revelation 9:1-12

Then The Fifth Angel SOUNDED: And I (John) SAW a Star (The Angel of The Bottomless Pit), fallen from Heaven to the Earth.  To Him (The Angel of The Bottomless Pit) was GIVEN The Key to The Bottomless Pit.  And He (The Angel of The Bottomless Pit) OPENED The Bottomless Pit, and smoke arose out of The Pit (The Bottomless Pit), like The Smoke of a Great Furnace.  So the Sun and the air were darkened, because of The Smoke of The Pit (The Bottomless Pit).  Then out of the smoke LOCUSTS came upon the Earth.  And to Them (The Locusts) was GIVEN Power, as the scorpions of the Earth, have Power.  They (The Locusts) were Commanded NOT to HARM the grass of the Earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but ONLY those men (Unbelievers), who do NOT have The Seal of God (God Almighty) on their (Unbelievers) foreheads.  And They (The Locusts) were NOT Given Authority to KILL them (Unbelievers), but to TORMENT them (Unbelievers) for Five (5) Months.  Their (The Locusts) Torment was like the torment of a scorpion, when it strikes a man.  In Those Days (Five Months) men (Unbelievers) will seek death and will NOT find it (death); they (Unbelievers) will desire to die, and death will FLEE from them (Unbelievers).

The Shape of The Locusts, was like horses prepared for battle.  On Their (The Locusts) Heads, were Crowns of something like gold, and Their (The Locusts) Faces were like the faces of men.  They (The Locusts) had Hair like women’s hair, and Their (The Locusts) Teeth were like lions’ teeth.  And They (The Locusts) had Breastplates like breastplates of iron, and The Sound of Their (The Locusts) Wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle.  They (The Locusts) had Tails like scorpions, and there were Stings in Their (The Locusts) Tails.  Their (The Locusts) POWER was to HURT men (Unbelievers) Five (5) Months.  And They (The Locusts) had as King OVER Them (The Locusts) The Angel of The Bottomless Pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but in Greek He (The Angel of The Bottomless Pit) has the name Apollyon.  One WOE is past.  Behold, still Two More WOES are Coming AFTER These Things (The Locusts).

Fellow Believers, after The Seventh Seal is BROKEN, The Seven Trumpet Judgments are about to begin.  At The First Trumpet, One Third of All Vegetation will be struck.  At The Second Trumpet, One Third of The Seas will be struck.  At The Third Trumpet, One Third of All Waters will be struck.  At The Fourth Trumpet, One Third of The Heavens will be struck.  This brings Us (Believers) to The Fifth Trumpet, The Release of The Locusts from The Bottomless Pit.  Did YOU (Believers) notice that The Locusts Purpose is ONLY to Torment, NOT to Kill?  In fact, even if these people (Unbelievers) yearn to die, they (Unbelievers) can NOT even do that (die)!  Now, THAT IS TORTURE!  Now imagine, despite All This, these people (Unbelievers) still have the opportunity to REPENT and turn to Jesus Christ, could YOU (Believers), would YOU (Believers)?  I guess, on the “bright side”, it’s ONLY for Five (5) Months.  I can tell YOU (Believers) this, I do NOT want to EVER come face-to-face with One of The Locusts from The Bottomless Pit!
