When the fifth seal is opened, the souls of the martyrs under Elohim’s throne are told to wait until the number of their fellow servants and brethren (who would be killed as they were) was completed.
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:9-11
9 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of Elohim and for the testimony which they held.
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Yahweh, set-apart and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
11 Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed.
Some believe seal 5 is being fulfilled in the Arab Spring that is going on in the Middle East (2012 to present). Some disagree, in that Revelation concerns itself with those who have both the testimony of Yeshua and keep the commandments of Elohim. (This describes Nazarenes, not Christians).
Hitgalut (Revelation) 12:17
17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of Elohim and have the testimony of Yeshua Messiah.
Those who believe the Arab Spring could fulfill seal 5 point out that seal 6 is marked by a nuclear war in the Middle East (which could happen any time).
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:12-17
12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.
13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,
16 and said to the mountains and 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 His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
The sky receding as a scroll is probably a mushroom cloud (i.e., nuclear war). A third world war is predicted in the occult literature of Albert Pike, who was a 33rd degree Freemason, and the leader of Freemasonry in North America. In 1871, he wrote a letter to a fellow Freemason named Mazzini, in which he outlined an occult vision he received concerning three world wars that would culminate in a satanic one world order. The following are excerpts of his letter to Mazzini, showing how the Masons and the Illuminati have had three world wars planned for many generations.
The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati [black horse] to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism [red horse]. The divergences caused by the “agentur” [agents] of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions. (Commander William Guy Carr, Satan: Prince of This World)
World War 1 was fomented principally by alliances surrounding England on one side, and Germany on the other. The German leader, Otto von Bismarck, was a co-conspirator of Albert Pike.
The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists [black horse]. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism [black horse] be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International Communism [red horse] must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom [white horse], which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm. (Commander William Guy Carr, Satan: Prince of This World)
As predicted, a sovereign Zionist State of Israel was created in Palestine after World War 2. (The Rothschild family refused to support the movement until then). As predicted, in the aftermath of WWII, the communist red horse forces balanced out the white horse Christian west. We should also note that the terms Nazism and Zionism were not known in 1871 when this letter was written, and that the Illuminati later invented both these movements.
The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the “agentur” of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam [the Muslim World] and political Zionism [the State of Israel] mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion….We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.” (Commander William Guy Carr, Satan: Prince of This World)
The only reason we quote Albert Pike’s letters is that they line up so well with Scripture. With Islamic nations developing nuclear weapons, a nuclear conflict in the Middle East seems very realistic. Thus, when Revelation 6:15 (above) refers to men hiding in caves and rocks, this could refer to fallout shelters. But what about the other symbols? Let’s look at verse 12 again.
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:12
12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.
When verse 12 speaks of the sun becoming black as sackcloth of hair, this might refer to a nuclear winter (i.e., fallout blocking the sun’s light). It might also have a symbolic meaning. The sun is symbolic of Yeshua because Malachi 4:2 describes Yeshua as the Sun of Righteousness which arises with healing in His wings.
Malachi 4:2
2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise With healing in His wings; And you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
Revelation 22:16 also describes Yeshua as the Bright and the Morning Star (i.e., the sun).
Hitgalut (Revelation) 22:16
16 “I, Yeshua, have sent My messenger to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
The church system is supposed to represent Yeshua. Therefore, at one level, when Revelation 6:12 says that the sun will become black as sackcloth of hair, it could refer to church doctrine. The old Roman swastika is referred to as the Black Sun, and it is an ancient symbol of Roman power. Or it might be referring to the doctrines of the Roman Church which become so black and powerful that they blot out the light of the true sun (i.e., Yeshua’s doctrines).
When the moon becomes like blood, it could refer to astronomical blood moons. At a symbolic level, Jewish rabbinic literature compares the Jewish people to the moon [e.g., Zohar, Shemos Rabah 15:26]. If Orthodox doctrine becomes like blood, it might refer to a call for blood (i.e., violence). This would be consistent with the Talmud which says that heathens who study the Torah (i.e., Nazarenes) deserve death.
R. Johanan said: A heathen who studies the Torah deserves death, for it is written, Moses commanded us a law for an inheritance; it is our inheritance, not theirs.
Verse 13 speaks of stars that fall to the earth.
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:13
13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
Stars represent Avraham’s seed, which Yahweh said was to become as numerous as the stars.
B’reisheet (Genesis) 22:17
17 “Blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies.”
Falling stars might also refer to nuclear missiles, seeing that the sky recedes like a scroll in the next verse.
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:14-17
14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.
15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,
16 and said to the mountains and 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 His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
Later we will see that the great day of Yahweh’s wrath refers to the cup judgments (which come after the trumpets). However, most people will think the great day of His wrath has come. And because most Christians, Jews, and Muslims are not devout, they would prefer to adopt a new world order (and its one world religion), than die as a result of further nuclear war. The Illuminati (and their Masonic puppets) will then bring the Luciferian New World Order and its one world religion into the public view, sold to the people as a cure for nuclear war.
In the next chapter we will learn about the papal temple and the one world religion that will be established after seal 6. But first we need to mention the possibility that the borders of Israel will open up after the shaking at seal 6.
Revelation 6:12 speaks of a great earthquake at seal 6.
Hitgalut (Revelation) 6:12
12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.
While there may be a literal earthquake, there will be a great spiritual shaking when the New World Order is set up. That is, there will be great societal upheaval when nations are broken apart and merged to form a one world order. It seems likely that this may be the shaking that is prophesied in Ezekiel 37:7.
Ezekiel 37:7 7 So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and suddenly a shaking; and the bones came together, bone to bone. |
(7) וְנִבֵּאתִי כַּאֲשֶׁר צֻוֵּיתִי | וַיְהִי קוֹל כְּהִנָּבְאִי וְהִנֵּה רַעַשׁ וַתִּקְרְבוּ עֲצָמוֹת עֶצֶם אֶל עַצְמוֹ |
The word shaking is the Hebrew word ra’ash (רַעַשׁ). This is the same word used in modern Hebrew for an earthquake (seismic activity). Strong’s Concordance describes it this way:
OT:7494 ra`ash (rah’-ash); from OT:7493; vibration, bounding, uproar:
KJV – commotion, confused noise, earthquake, fierceness, quaking, rattling, rushing, shaking.
The reference at OT:7493 also refers to an earthquake:
OT:7493 ra`ash (raw-ash); a primitive root; to undulate (as the earth, the sky, etc.; also a field of grain), particularly through fear; specifically, to spring (as a locust):
KJV – make afraid, (re-) move, quake, (make to) shake, (make to) tremble.
When the national borders in the Middle East are taken down, and a new world order is set up in the aftermath of a nuclear war, the social landscape will definitely be shaken up. This shaking might be what it takes for the stick of Ephraim to begin coming together worldwide.
We should also note that Illuminists such as Shimon Peres have long called for the State of Israel to open its borders to non-Jewish immigration. Ephraimites could apply to relocate, but the invitation would also be open to Muslims, Christians, Satanists, etc. All of these will be welcome in the land of Israel under the New World Order.
I am often asked if we should go to the land of Israel when the New World Order opens up the borders. I believe that you should pray, and do as Yahweh leads. But if you go, be ready to leave the land when the Abomination of Desolation is set up (midway through the tribulation).
