The Seventh Seal, Seventh Trumpet, Seventh Vial, and Seven Thunders, from the manifestation of Christ and his Brethren under the going forth of the Frog-like Unclean Spirit out of the Mouth of the False Prophet, in the third and last section of the Frog Sign, and third part of the Sixth Vial:— from this the initiation of "the manifestation of the Sons of the Deity" as the Lamb in the midst of the 144,000 redeemed from the earth; to the full establishment of the Millennial Throne and Kingdom of David, coeval with, and consequent upon, the utter destruction of Daniel's "dreadful and terrible" Fourth Beast, which comprehends as its constituents the Apocalyptic Beast of the Sea, Beast of the Earth, Image of the Beast, False Prophet, Scarlet-colored Beast, and the Drunken Babylonian Harlot, with all her Daughters and Abominations, "the Names and Denominations of Christendom:" and the subjection, but not extermination, of his first three, the Lion, the Bear, and the Leopard, answering to the Apocalyptic Dragon, bound, and shut up in the abyss for a thousand years.

THE SIXTH SPECIAL DIVISION OF THE SEVENTH TRUMPET

ACT VI - SIXTH VIAL

PART 3 Apocalypse 16: 15

While the Frog-like Spirits are working, "the Lord the Spirit" (2<p> Cor. 3:17,18) comes into the world "as a thief." He descends from heaven having great power - the key of the abyss and a great chain (Apoc. 18:1; 20:1) - for the work of killing with the sword them who destroy the earth; and of enlightening it with his glory (Apoc. 13:10; 11:18; 18:1). Having been clothed with a cloud (Apoc. 10:1; Heb. 12:1) of witnesses, he stands on Mount Zion in the midst of 144,000 - his companions and co-workers - the Mystical Son of Man, whose voice is as the voice of a multitude (Apoc. 14:1; Dan. 10:6) - as the sound of many waters (Apoc. 1: 15). His head is encircled with the rainbow of the covenant; his face is as the sun, and his goings forth as pillars of fire. Thus prepared, he stands ready for action with his right foot upon the Sea-beast, and his left upon the Earth-beast, and a LITILE OPEN SCROLL in his hand, upon which are inscribed, "the lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and earthquakes, and great hail" - the Seven Thunders proceeding from the throne - to be ministered by those who are honored to take the Scroll, and to eat it up (Apoc. ~b:9; 11:19; 4:5). Now is the judgment of the nations - "the hour of judgment," in which they are invited to fear the Deity, and to'give glory to him (Apoc. 14:6,7). Proclamation is made by the "One Body," now anointed and glorified, and of which the Lord Jesus is the Head, that "time shall be no longer." Daniel's 1260 time shall then terminate - and the finishing of the mystery of the Deity be apocalypsed (Apoc. 10:6,7). The glorified members of this Body sing a new song before the throne; and confidently aver, as the result of the events prefigured in the ensuing fourteenth chapter, that they shall reign as the kings and priests of Deity upon the earth (Apoc. 14:3; 5:9,10).

FOURTH PART OF SIXTH VIAL

Apocalypse 16:16


The Advent, or "Manifestation of the Sons of the Deity" (Rom. 8:19; 1John 3:1,2) having transpired, the Angel of the Sixth Vialgathers the kings, or rulers, of the Earth-beast, and of the whole habitable, or Sea-beast, into the place styled in Hebrew, ARMAGEDDON. This gathering effected the events of the Seventh Vial (which are the Seven Thunders hurled by the Second and Third Angels against Babylon and the worshippers of the Beast and his Image; and the Harvest and Vintage of the Son of Man and the three angels exhibited in the fourteenth chapter)finish the mystery, and the wrath of the Deity against mankind is stayed.
