Most of the people throughout the world will not believe the reality of the End of the World; understood as the Great Tribulation Period, which is actually the End of the Age of Grace and the Beginning of the Millennial Age, until an earthquake causes the ground to move beneath their feet and the sky rolls black with volcanic ash and their entire Earth Life is being destroyed right before their eyes…
[2] And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
[3] And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
[4] And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
[5] And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
[6] And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
[7] And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
[8] And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
[9] And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
[10] And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
[11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
[12] And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
[13] And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
[14] And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
[15] And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens 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 that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
[17] For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse began during the first part the past century in the Middle East and Eurasia regions of the world and will continue to reach a catastrophic scale during the Great Tribulation Period. The last two Horsemen of Famine and Death will soon reach a proportion unseen in the history of humanity…

The Final 1335 Days Of The Age Of The Gentiles
The information in the first section of this page is from: www.TribulationPeriod.com
Event 1 – Israel is attacked 1335 days before the end of the Tribulation Period.
Event 2 – Some 30 days later the two witnesses begin their testimony in Israel when Jerusalem falls.
Event 3 – Some 45 days later the IDF is driven south to Beersheba and the United Nations brokers a truce or hudna is agreed to by Islam and Israel.
Event 4 – Israel remains surrounded in the Negev Wilderness for some 1260 days after the truce agreement.
Event 5 – Some 45 days before the end of the Age of the Gentiles the two witnesses will be killed by the Antichrist after having testified for 42 months (1260 days). The Antichrist will declare himself to be God on the Temple Mount – This is the abomination “that maketh desolate.”
Event 6 – Three and one half days later three events occur in rapid succession. They all three occur on the same day.
#1 – The two witnesses ascend up to heaven through the clouds.
#2 – A great earthquake occurs in the same hour the two witnesses depart.
#3 – The last trump (7th) Trump sounds and all of the saved are caught up.
Event 7 – All of the saved are judged in heaven while the seven vials of God’s wrath are poured out on unbelievers.
Event 8 – Christ returns with all the saved some 1335 days after the initial attack of Islamic forces against Israel.

- The two witnesses will testify for 1260 days after the fall of Jerusalem
- A truce or hudna will be declared at Beersheba 45 days after Jerusalem falls

- Antichrist will kill the two witnesses and declare himself to be God on the Temple Mount making himself the “abomination that maketh desolate.”
- Three and one-half days later three events occur in rapid succession on the same day: (1) The two witnesses ascend into heaven, (2) A great earthquake occurs, and (3) The seventh trump sounds and all the saved are caught up, including the sealed 144,000.
A composite of the Hebrew words for Joel 2:30: And I will show a token, a sign and wonder in the visible arch of the sky where the clouds move and throughout all the earth, in the fields, in the country, in the wilderness and it will have the appearance of blood, along with a burning, hot flaming fire, with columns of cloudy dust, smoke and vapor.
A composite of the Hebrew words for Joel 2:31: The brilliant sun, from the rising of the sun in the east to the sun rays in the arch ways of the sky, will be changed into darkness, as if it were night and the moon will take on the appearance of blood before the great and noble, fearful and terrible day in which Jehovah, the self-Existing One, the Eternal Lord shall come.
A composite of the Greek words for Acts 2:19: And I will bring forth a rare event so extraordinary, it will inspire wonder, for it will be in the elevated area of the sky and a token of these events, will be throughout the entire regions under the surface of the soil, of all the land of the world, for it will be a visible wonder of flowing substance like blood, of flashes of lightening and fire, with a mist of smoke.
A composite of the Greek words for Acts 2:20: The rising of the sun in the east and the rays of daily light will become as an outlining shadow and the bright shining moon, will appear to be a blood red color, before that mighty and visible day in which the One in supreme authority will come.

You can also type the following words in an Internet Search Section and/or in the Image Section: Italy Volcanoes, Monte Albano, Colli Albani Hills, Alban Hills Volcano, Tiber River.
Please click on this link about the Alban Hills Volcano near Rome, Italy.
Please type in the following words in an Internet Search or Image Section: Italy Subduction Zone or click the following two links:
The sixteen links below, will provide information about the future destruction of the “Vatican City,” in Rome, Italy. The Alban Hills volcano complex may or may not be the volcano complex which God will use to destroy the “Vatican City.”
But it is certainly worth considering… There are other volcanoes in the area, as the whole country is above a Subduction Zone.
You may not want to accept this concept, but it will happen. The Bible clearly teaches this fact. It Will Happen… Again, It Will Happen… It’s just a matter of time.
Just remember, when the Arab Antichrist invades Israel, then The Great Tribulation Period will begin and 3 1/2 years later, will be the Destruction of Rome, Italy and the end of the Vatican City…forever…
The “Lord Jesus Christ” will not let this religious system remain active when He begins His 1,000 year Reign on this earth, as He returns immediately after it’s destruction…
Please check out these sixteen links. They will provide you with information as to the method of the destruction used against the City of Rome and primarily for the single purpose of destroying the religious system in the Vatican City.

Destroy them which destroy the earth. (To bring to ruin) them which (morally corrupt) the earth. Revelation 11:18b.
Check out these links to see how God will use the “blood like-substance” or the “blood of the earth” to put an end to the gross immorality of humanity… When the great earthquakes really begin to happen, the surface of the earth will crack open and the “burning hot magma” from the interior of the earth will literally “burn” humanity from off the surface of the earth… God will use the earth to bring about the fulfillment of His Biblical Prophecies…

A Blood-Like Substance Arises From Under The Earth
In The Jordan River Valley
Outside The City Of Jerusalem
And the angel thrust with intense violence, his gathering hook and sickle for harvesting, into the earth and gathered the vine and vintage of the earth and cast and threw it into the great trough, wine-vat and winepress of the fierce indignation and wrath of Deity; the very exceeding great God. And the great trough, wine-vat and winepress was trodden without the city and a blood-like substance came out of the winepress, even up to the horse bridle-bits, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
(1,600 furlongs times, 606.75 Greek feet, divided by 5,280 English feet, equals 183.86 miles). Revelation 14:19-20.

If you really want to see how God will use the earth to bring about The Great Tribulation Period; just watch some of these videos. Listen to the roaring thunder of the Volcanic Eruption and watch the lava flow across the earth’s surface. Watch the volcanic bombs or hail, as mentioned in the Bible, falling from the air, during the eruption.
You can also watch other videos on the Internet about: Earthquakes, Tsunamis, Volcanic Lightning, Volcano Lava, Submarine Volcano, etc. Just enter any of these subjects in the Video Section of an Internet Search.

And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness and the first begotten of the dead and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us and washed us from our sins in his own blood and hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Behold,he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him and they also which pierced him: and all kindred’s of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is and which was and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation 1:5-8.

And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ;and he shall reign forever and ever. And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power and hast reigned. And the nations were angry and thy wrath is come and the time of the dead, that they should be judged and that thou shouldest give rewards unto thy servants the prophets and to the saints and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them, which destroy the earth. And the temple of God was opened in heaven and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament; and there were lightnings and voices and thunderings and an earthquake and great hail. Revelation11:15-19.

The Seventh Vial of Wrath
The seventh vial of wrath ends the Tribulation Period. When the last 45 days of the Wrath of God is completed, there would have been great worldwide earthquakes, massive volcanic eruptions, with towering ash clouds, volcanic lightning and volcanic bombs of melting rock. These submarine earthquakes and volcanoes will produce catastrophic tsunamis waves along the coastal areas, resulting in a displacement of the geographical location of all the islands and mountains on this earth. Every inch of landmass on the entire surface of the earth will have a new geographical position. God will judge the people of the world with fire from under the earth’s crust.
And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. And there were voices and thunders and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake and so great. And the city was divided into three parts and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. And every island fled away and the mountains were not found. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. Revelation 16:17-21.
Check out these links for information on how God will use the earth to bring about the Great Tribulation Period. God will cause the tectonic plate movement to produce earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, bring an end to the present state of humanity. It will be the End of the World as we know it, in our life time.

Check out these two links below, to understand “Lightning Fire”.
This “Lightning Fire” is from Volcanic Eruptions…
It will be occurring all along the tectonic plate boundaries of the earth…
The “plague of the hail” will be the volcanic bombs, thrown out from the erupting volcanoes…
Revelation 8: [13] And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!

To better answer how to answer this question, we should learn something about the structure of the land in the area of the Euphrates River. The following links will help towards understanding how God will use earthquakes, to break up the land in the Middle East, to divert the Euphrates River.
- Plate Tectonics
- Plate Tectonics Map
- Plate Tectonics Boundaries
- Plate Tectonics Boundaries
- Plate Tectonics Motion
- List of Tectonic Plate Interactions
- Middle East Tectonic Plates
- Plate Tectonics Map
Check out these images for the location of the Euphrates River. Notice it’s headwaters, then how it flows southeast. During the Great Tribulation Period, the earthquakes will cause it to be diverted southwest into the Jordan River.
The land of Syria has many earthquake faults and a massive earthquake will collapse the Palmyride folds, which will allow the Euphrates River to flow southwest towards Israel.
Check out these links for information about the Palmyride Folds:
- Palmyride Fold Images
- Palmyride Fold – From Cornell University
- Palmyride Fold – From GeoScience World
These geological changes will begin, when the Antichrist or the Islamic leader of the ten Arab confederation of nations attack the nation of Israel.
When the Euphrates River, the Jordan River and Ezekiel’s spring combine their water sources, in addition to hundreds, perhaps thousands of newly formed springs, along with the transformation of the southern end of the Dead Sea Fault Zone, the “New River” will be able to support an abundance of freshwater fish for the 1,000 years in which Israel will become the breadbasket of the world.
The Answer To The 2nd And 3rd Questions
For the Gentile nations, the heathen and pagan people, will rise and move up against and among one another bordering nations and kingdom against kingdom, one place of reign touching another; and there shall be famines, a lack of food, causing destitution for people being without food; and pestilences, a plague of diseases; and a shaking of the ground, causing it to tremble, shake sideways, back and forth, for the earth will be shaking in divers or various places, down through its’ distribution with intensity, in many locations. But all these are the beginning, of the grief, the first of the troubles, sorrows, of the birth pains and travail. Matthew 24:7-8.

The Lord Jesus Christ will Return at the end of The Great Tribulation Period, in a single massive cloud of “Volcanic Ash,” which will encircle the entire planet earth. It will be caused by the thousands of erupting volcanoes and perhaps in addition to some “Super Volcanoes.” It will take several years to build this cloud, in which the Lord will pass through, upon His return to the earth.

The following are Links to all of the Pages on my other Website.
I should say, they are Links to all of the “Pages” on the other Website, as on some of the pages, there are some additional studies that were simply grouped together… Nevertheless, at least you will be able to view the Title of most of the studies and it will be easier for you to find a particular topic…
These Links are Pages that are on the Welcome/front page of the other Website. I cannot edit them any longer, as the Software that the site was built, began to fail and I could not get the Hosting Service or Developer to fix the issue, so I switched to Word Press.
It has worked out just fine, because I can upload Videos and Hymns on the new server. I will try and add all of the Pages to all of the other sites that I have, but it will take several years. At least you can still read them as they are still on the Disk Server and I’ll just leave them there…

Volcano Discovery YouTube Videos
Here are some Links to the Volcano Discovery YouTube site, which shows many amazing Videos about different Volcanic Eruptions.
Here are some Links to some YouTube Videos that deal with the events related to the Beginning of Sorrows of the New Testament.
These types of events are going to get worse in the years ahead, as the Great Tribulation Period approaches.
This time period will last for 3 1/2 years, then at the very end of this Time Period, the Wrath of God will take place and last for about 45 days.
These Videos are mostly Volcanic Eruption events, as these are the primary events that will be occurring during this Great Tribulation Period.
A.Volcano Discovery YouTube Channel
This first section are what I consider to be the Best Volcanic Videos as they show a lot of the Volcanic Bombs, Fire, Lava and some Ash Cloud eruptions that is described in the Book of Revelation.
Most people of the world will have no idea what is occurring on a global scene, because they are have no knowledge of the Bible and are not being taught the Book of Revelation by religious leaders. The truth is, most religious leaders are totally ignorant of these things anyway, so how can they be expected to teach anyone else???

Revelation Tribulation Audio Bible Sermon List
This page has some Audio Bible Sermons that deal mostly with the Great Tribulation Period. The Sermons are related to the events as to description of how and why they are occurring. Be sure to take time and listen to the Sermons, as this will help you understand what this Time Period is all about.
The number at the end of the title is the correct number of the Sermon on the original page. When this list was posted on the new pages of the website, for some reason, the number in front of the title was renumbered. I have no idea how or why. It was something in the process on the Word Press software…

Last update on this list was on June 12, 2018, with Sermon #2363…I will not add any more to this list sermons. I have many things to do and cannot devote any time to this list.
The “Great Tribulation Period” will begin when several “Arab nations and various Arab terrorist groups” unite to conduct a Jihad attack upon the Nation of Israel and according to the Bible, this will result in the death of 2/3rds of the Jewish population in Israel:
(Zechariah 13: [8] And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. [9] And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.)
Afterwards forming an “Islamic Caliphate” that will last for 3 ½ years, consisting of “10 Arab countries” in the Middle East. Today is February 15, 2016, so I’ve told you far in advance and this event will happen in the next several years, after the current crisis in the Middle East calms down, then the Islamic Forces will regroup and conduct this invasion and proceed to conquer Egypt and then establish the “Ten Arab/Islamic/Caliphate/Empire.”
There is ample information concerning this topic on this Website, you just have to take the time to read it. The same goes for the information regarding the Great Tribulation Period and the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ that is on this site, you just have to read it. The majority of humanity does not have any idea concerning these Biblical subjects and will be caught by surprise when these events draw near. There is no excuse for you to be ignorant, when the information is right here in front of you.
There are also hundreds of Audio Bible Sermons that explain all of these subjects in great detail on my other Website, which is: www.BibleSermonsMP3.com .
I encourage you to take the time to listen to them, while the Internet is still available. Once the Great Tribulation Period starts, the transmission lines will certainly fail and this information will not be available to you. Make good use of this knowledge while you still have time…
The Biblical “Antichrist” will be the “Caliph of this 10 Arab Empire”. This will be an “Islamic Empire” as foretold in the Book of Daniel and in the Book of Revelation.
Daniel 2: [31] Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. [32] This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, [33] His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. [34] Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and break them to pieces.
Daniel 2: [41] And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. [42] And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. [43] And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. [44] And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. [45] Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
Revelation 13: [1] And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. [2] And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. [3] And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. [4] And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? [5] And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. [6] And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Revelation 17: [8] The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. [9] And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. [10] And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. [11] And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. [12] And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
The following are the Trumpets and Vials of the Book of Revelation, which describe the general theme of this end time event known as the: “Great Tribulation Period.” There will be a Great Earthquake in the Jordan River Valley, which will bring about the calling of a truce regarding the Islamic Jihad Attack upon the Nation of Israel. This geological event will set in motion the earth changing events pertaining to the Seven Trumpets and the “Rapture” of any surviving Christian Believers at the 7th Trumpet and ending with the Seven Vials of Wrath.
The “Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ” will occur after all of these event have been fulfilled, then He will begin His Millennial Reign, ruling from the Temple that will be constructed on the Jerusalem Temple Mount.
In Revelation 8:1, seven Angels are given seven trumpets. Each trumpet announces the beginning of certain events which can be for a “worldwide” or “local” area. They can be for events on the surface of the earth, in the oceans, in the atmosphere or in the spiritual world.
Revelation 8:7 – 1st trumpet – volcanic activity begins on the earth destroying one third of the trees and all the green grass surrounding the volcano, from the heat blast, lava flow and falling ash.
Revelation 8:8-9 – 2nd trumpet – volcanic activity begins in the oceans killing one third of sea life and producing worldwide tsunami waves, which destroy a third of the ships in port.
Revelation 8:10-11 – 3rd trumpet –a great comet strikes the earth, melts and is absorbed into the hydrological cycle, producing hydrocyanic acid, poisoning one third of the earth’s water supply, proceeded by a meteor storm as the comet begins its atmospheric entrance.
Revelation 8:12 – 4th trumpet – a dramatic increase in worldwide volcanic activity, creates a dust haze over a third of the earth.
Revelation 9:1-12 – 5th trumpet – a massive chain of worldwide volcanic eruptions and releasing of demonic beings from the earth’s interior, which torment the spiritually lost of humanity, that is: non-Christian (True) Believers for five months. There are great masses of people who outwardly claim to be Christian Believers, but the demonic spirits know the difference and these fakers will be tormented in the same group as the spiritually lost, because they actually are spiritually lost. They will likewise end up in Hades, as with all spiritually lost souls and eventually be cast into the Lake of Fire, with the demons and the Devil, for the duration of eternal existence.
Revelation 9:13-21 – 6th trumpet – release of four demonic kings, which lead approximately 200 million demons to kill a third of the human population with fire, smoke and an intense sulfurous suffocating odor.
Revelation 11:15-19 – 7th trumpet – announces the time of the Judgment Day in order to give “Rewards to True and Faithful Christian Believers” or a rebuke to the majority of Christian Believers for their incorrect Worship and lack of service towards the Lord’s work, before the Judgment Seat of the Lord Jesus Christ in the spiritual kingdom, understood as the Rapture and the occurrence of an earthquake and great volcanic hail upon the earth. By the time this event happens, there are not going to be very many True Christian Believers alive on the earth to Rapture-Out, just due to the simple fact over the past several generations, people in general have become harden to the Gospel of Salvation by Grace, therefore there are less people being saved and because a large section of the human population will have been killed by the events of Trumpets 1-6, including any True Christian Believers!!!
The Wrath Of God
The Apostle John explains the wrath of God in a picture of catastrophic terror and horrors coming upon the earth because of the wickedness of humanity and in order to make necessary changes in the geological structure in the land of Israel. This period of the wrath of God lasts only for about 45 days.These events occur after the Rapture of the Saved from the earth. They are a continuation and an increase of intensity of the seven trumpets which have just been completed. The entire text is found in Revelation 16:1-21.
Revelation 16:2 – 1st plague – a shift in the magnetic field of the earth, from the earthquakes, leaving the earth temporarily without its protective shield, resulting in cosmic radiation mutilating the human flesh of those who worship the beast or antichrist. The Biblical antichrist is the leader of the Islamic Caliphate of the Ten Arab Empire that will be formed in the Middle East.
Revelation 16:3 – 2nd plague – the heating of the oceans by undersea lava causing the reproduction of various dinoflagellates at a fantastic rate, producing oxidation and red tide, respectively. This event will bring about a massive destruction of aquatic life throughout the world oceans.
Revelation 16:4-7 – 3rd plague –a poisoning of the earth’s freshwater supply by a comets release of methyl cyanide, hydrogen cyanide and a whole range of cyanogenic poisonous gases into the hydrological cycle. This comet will most likely enter the atmosphere over the “Old World” landmass.
Revelation 16:8-9 – 4th plague – destruction of the ozone layer by volcanic activity, allowing penetration of ultraviolet radiation causing a burning skin cancer.
Revelation 16:10-11 – 5th plague – a massive pyroclastic holocaust from volcanic lava upon wicked humanity.
Revelation 16:12-16 – 6th plague –the releasing of three evil spirits, causing people to worship the antichrist and to gather for the battle of Armageddon, including the diversion of the Euphrates River towards the Jordan River valley.
Revelation 16:17-21 – 7th plague – the greatest earthquake to ever have occurred since humanity has been on earth will take place in the Jordan river valley, producing a chain reaction of earthquakes, which will cause the cities of the nations of the world to fall into ruin, ending with catastrophic global volcanic activity, developing a single dust cloud encircling the entire planet earth. It is during this event, that sets in motion a worldwide shifting of the tectonic plates, which will affect the subduction zone in Italy. This will activate the Alban Hills Volcanic Complex near Rome, Italy and will burn the city with Volcanic Fire. The land will sink below sea level and the Tiber River, along with the waters of the Mediterranean Sea will cover the remains of the city. This will bring about the final event of the “Great Tribulation Period” which will be the “Destruction of the Vatican City” by Volcanic Fire.
The “Creator GOD”
Used the Earth to Destroy Humanity in the Past and will do it Again in the Near Future
The Great Flood: Genesis 6: [5] And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. [6] And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. [7] And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [11] The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. [12] And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. [13] And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. [17] And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and everything that is in the earth shall die.
Genesis 7: [4] For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. [23] And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
Sodom and Gomorrah: Genesis 13: [13] But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
Genesis 18: [17] And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; [20] And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
Genesis 19: [1] And there came two angels to Sodom at even; [13] For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it. [24] Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; [27] And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD: [28] And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
There are several basic purposes for the “Great Tribulation Period” ending with the “Wrath of God”. It is to make changes in the tilt of the earth and to the Land Structure of Israel to ensure that it will be the Breadbasket of the world during the Millennial Reign; to destroy the Arab nations in the Middle East and to destroy the “immoral people” of the world, who have grossly influenced the general population and have caused them to turn away from God, thereby causing them to become ever more immersed into the very lowest state of immoral attitude and actions.
The Great Tribulation Period: Revelation 11: [15] And the seventh angel sounded;… [18] And shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. [19] …and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Revelation 11:18. The Greek Text:
καὶ διαφθεῖραι τοὺς διαφθείροντας τὴν γῆν
In Revelation 11:18, the Greek word for the second English word “destroy” has to do with morality. With an in-depth study from the New Testament Greek language, this phrase can be translated as: {and destroy and bring to ruin, causing them to perish, to kill them, which destroy by morally corrupting the occupants of the earth and have caused the inhabitants to become thoroughly rotten, by changing their minds and morals for the worse.}
Revelation 16: [17] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [19] And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [21] And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
The next destruction of humanity will be by:
Earthquakes and Volcanic Fire!!!
