THE MEMORIAL OF THE BLOWING OF TRUMPETS




I was talking to a neighbor about scriptures when he made a statement that “Gabriel will blow the horn when Jesus comes for us in the rapture”, I asked, “Can you read that to me?” He said it’s in Revelation somewhere and that he would find it and read it to me.

We then started talking about the Great trumpet or at least I did. I said do you know that there are seven Angels that have seven trumpets, in Revelation 8:2? He looked at me, funny, you know a puzzled look, a look that said “What are you talking about?” I said, “Well when you have time we will sit down and read the scriptures, and we will rightly divide the scriptures.
Well we have not sat down yet.

However, it got me to thinking about how many people do not know about the trumpets of God. Well, let’s go to the Holy Scriptures, and read about them. Turn to Leviticus 23:1-2, 4, we read that the Lord is telling Moses to speak to Israel concerning His (the Lord’s) Feasts. God to Leviticus 23:23-25, the Lord tells Moses to tell the children of Israel to observe the Memorial of the Blowing of Trumpets. “You shall have a Holy convocation, in the seventh month; the first day of the month.” Now this is just one of the Lord’s Sabbath Days, the one this post will be looking at. It is part of the Lord’s Plan.

Turn to Exodus 19:10-11, the Lord tells Moses to tell the people that the Lord was coming down on Mount Sinai, and the Lord came down, Exodus 19:14-19. And the trumpet sounded announcing the coming of the Lord/King.

So now we know that the trumpets announce the coming of the Lord. We will look at this further as we journey through the scriptures. Now turn to Numbers 31:1-6, we read that trumpets also are used to sound a battle. In the sixth chapter of Joshua we read that Israel is about to attack Jericho, for the Lord had given Jericho into the hands of Joshua, and that all the men of war should march around the city once a day for six days, and seven priests shall have seven trumpets and they shall march around the city for six days blowing the trumpets.
The people were commanded not to shout until the seventh day, when they would march around the city seven times and on the seventh go round the people would shout when the seven trumpets sounded and the wall fell down flat. The people went in and took the city of Jericho. Here we see seven priests given seven trumpets to sound at the fall of Jericho, which signals the beginning of the end of the Canaanite empire, Joshua 3:10.

Turn to Revelation 5:6, we read about the seven seals, which represent the beginning of the Great Tribulation. We will read more on the seven seals later, now turn to Revelation 8:1-2, and read about seven Angels being given seven Trumpets, Revelation 8:6. There was also seven Angels given seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, Revelation 15:1, 6-7. Most people do not know about the seven trumpets of the Lord, they are taught about only one trumpet, which is the seventh and last trumpet.

However there is much to happen before that trumpet is blown. They are never taught about the Angels that have the seven vials of wrath. That is why the Lord has a Sabbath called the Memorial of the Blowing of Trumpets, because this Sabbath is a part of the shadows of things to come, Colossians 2:16-17. This is what Paul was speaking of when he spoke of the Sabbath days, Trumpets that the seven Angels sound is the end of the Great Tribulation, Revelation 11:15, and man’s rule of this system of things. I could go into greater detail about the seven seals, seven trumpets, and seven golden vials of the wrath of God, but you can join us in keep this Sabbath Day on

For the Lord said,I gave them My Sabbaths to be a sign between Me and them", Ezekiel 20:11-12, 20.

ISRAEL, The Woman In Revelation Chapter Twelve




Update: 7/31/08 Post Continued



Now here we see that the church in Luke 4:13-16, is still the same church that Moses was in, in the wilderness. What most people do not know is that the LORD was also in that church, and walked among the congregation of Israel, Deuteronomy 23:12-14, Leviticus 26:11-12.


And when the Lord came in the flesh, He came as an Israelite (Jew) and walked among the Jews (Israelites). He came to teach the children of Israel, only. In Matthew 15:21-28 Jesus tells the woman that He is sent unto the lost sheep of Israel, only. The Lord first has to gather and teach His people, before He gathers the rest of the children of Adam. The Israelites are to teach all the son's of Adam about God. That is why He told His disciples in Matthew 10:1, 5-6, "Go not in the way of the Gentiles, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. He first must gather and teach and judge the House of Israel, which is the house of God, 1 Peter 4:17.


So, if you want salvation you have to become a part of Israel, because Israel is the church, Ephesians 2:11-13, 18-20. You must become a part of the Commonwealth of Israel. The foundation is built upon the Apostles and Prophets, with Jesus Christ being the Chief Cornerstone.


The true church keeps the Lord's Sabbaths; seventh day of the week; all of the Sabbath days (feasts) listed in Leviticus 23; also, keeps the dietary laws listed in Deuteronomy 14 and Leviticus 11. His church keeps His commandments, in fact, they keep the law, which is every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord, Deuteronomy 8:3; Matthew 4:4.


Lastly, even when you reach the last book of the Bible, you see that Holy City, the Father's Kingdom, New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven having twelve gates with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, each one written on each gate, Revelation 21:2, 10-12. So, you must be a part of Israel to live in this City.


Just a word of caution before you think or speak those suicidal words, "Jesus did away with the law" or "That was the Old Covenant, we are under the New Covenant" please, please, pay close attention when you read Leviticus 23, the Lord tells us to observe His feasts for ever!!


I will be posting more on the church in the future, however, you can join us at:
