The Trumpet Judgements Unveiled
Chapter 17
Reading the Code
Hopefully, you have learned the true Bible Code. It is within the words and the definitions of the Bible itself. You don’t need some sophisticated computer program to figure out this code. All you need is your Bible, (King James is a must) a Concordance (Strong's preferably) and a dictionary. These are very basic tools.
Once you learn the language that is within the words of the Bible, you can begin to read verses and passages and will understand the language that is behind the words. It is almost like seeing through the words and seeing into another dimension. It is absolutely fascinating once you learn this process. Passages and scripture that were in the past not understandable begin to open up.
Let’s take a look at some scripture to show you how this works. Ezekiel, chapters 21 and 22 are a treasure trove of metaphors and understanding. Let's start there. This is the chapter containing the phrase "I will overturn, overturn, overturn."
Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thine hands together, and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the slain: it is the sword of the great men that are slain, which entereth into their privy chambers. [15] I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may faint, and their ruins be multiplied: ah! it is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter. [16] Go thee one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, whithersoever thy face is set. [17] I will also smite mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it. [18] The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying, [19] Also, thou son of man, appoint thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come: both twain shall come forth out of one land: and choose thou a place, choose it at the head of the way to the city. - Ezekiel 21:14-19
The doubling of the sword the third time we already know is referring to the third overturn. The word “ah!” shows up which means this occurs at the 5th trumpet. But it also means the 6th trumpet is in action for we know there is an alliance and partnership between the two factions.
This chapter is speaking about Babylon. Verse 16 states that there are two ways, and to choose which way to go. Go to the right or to the left. Here is where the definitions play a major role. Right means south. Left means north. The right signifies south or the Scorpions. The left signifies north or the Serpents. They are to choose whether they are going to be a Scorpion or a Serpent. Either of those is a grim choice.
Both of these two come out of one land, Babylon. Both of these are chosen at the head of the city. Both the Scorpions and the Serpents come out of Babylon.
Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood. - Ezekiel 22:6
The princes of Israel are the princes of Babylon. Each of the two groups has the power to shed blood. Even though the Scorpions don't do the actual killing, they still have innocent blood on their hands.
In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD. [13] Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee. - Ezekiel 22:12, 13
These are the Scorpions that have taken reward for the betrayal of the Multitude. They indeed have blood on their hands.
There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. - Ezekiel 22:25
"There is a conspiracy" is referring to the alliance between the two. They both have attributes of the lion, and they both actually devour souls. The Scorpions have taken the treasures and the Serpents have made many widows.
Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain. - Ezekiel 22:27
These are princes of Israel/Babylon. The ones that shed blood (Murders) and get dishonest gain. (Thefts) The Scorpions are guilty of shedding blood by the identification of the wolves (Scorpions) ravening the prey. They just keep showing up. Yes, they are all over the scriptures once you can identify them.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. - Matthew 7:15
The false prophets are in sheep=s clothing, but inwardly they are a wolf/Scorpion and will betray the Multitude in a minute to those that will murder them. And they do all of this for a reward. There is a price on their head. That is their only value to them. How much can they get for them? A chilling thought.
I think you can start seeing the flow of the language once you understand it. The understanding makes something very complicated and dense, actually very simple once you obtain the understanding of it. It takes study and work. With practice you will be able to master it. Let’s take a look at Obadiah. This shows all of the groups within this one chapter. Also, there are shifts that occur. In certain verses the Lord is speaking about a certain group and in other verses He is speaking to them. This is absolutely amazing.
This will just be a flowing translation of what is seen here and referencing other passages that fit in with these verses.
The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle. - Obadiah 1:1
First of all, we can see this is speaking about Edom. These Edomites are of the rebuilt House of Esau. The ambassador (Messenger) is sent to the heathen. (Scorpions) The Serpents approach the Scorpions and say "Rise up (Smoke rising in the 5th trumpet) and let us rise (The briers and thorns that mount up like the lifting up of smoke) against her (The Multitude) in battle."
Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised. - Obadiah 1:2
This shifts to speaking about both of the 2/3 to the Serpents. They are actually made small because they lifted themselves up. (He that is high shall be made low)
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? - Obadiah 1:3
They lift themselves up in pride. (The Serpents with the haughtiness of the Scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees) They dwell in the clefts of the rocks. (The great mountain that the Lord is going to roll down from the rocks) The Whore of Babylon states that "I sit a queen and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow." [1] They believe that they are doing the will of God and that they are in the right place with Him. How wrong they are.
Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD. - Obadiah 1:4
They are the eagle, (Serpents) and they are nested in the stars, (Serpents) but they will fall. (At the 5th trumpet (Babylon is fallen, is fallen) but ultimately they will fall at the 7th trumpet))
If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grape gatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes? - Obadiah 1:5
"If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? (If a thief came, he wouldn’t have taken everything, only what he wanted) if the grape gatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes? (He wouldn’t have taken all the grapes. But you have killed the entire Multitude. You didn’t leave any, not even one. There is no mercy in you.)
How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up! - Obadiah 1:6
The rebuilt House of Esau. They are searching and bringing the things up that were destroyed a long time ago. But they have revived them. They have resurrected that which the Lord destroyed. They will be called "The Border of Wickedness."
All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him. - Obadiah 1:7
Now, this shifts to the Lord speaking to the Multitude. Notice how it states that their confederacy (Scorpions and the Serpents) has brought the Multitude to the border. What border? They brought them to "The border of wickedness." Another connection has been made.
"All the men of thy confederacy (The covenant with death and agreement with hell in Isaiah 28) have brought thee even to the border: (The border of wickedness) the men that were at peace with thee (Your brothers and sisters that sat next to you in the pews) have deceived thee, (Have lied to you and betrayed you) and prevailed against thee; (They have overcome you, you have been given into their hand) they (The Scorpions) that eat thy bread (That have stripped you of your belongings) have laid a wound under thee: (betrayed and will hand you over to the Serpents who will murder you (But the Lord will heal your wound)) there is none understanding in him." (They will perish in their own corruption)
Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau? [9] And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter. - Obadiah 1:8, 9
It shifts back to the Serpents and tells them that at the 7th trumpet, they, the Edomites will be destroyed. They will all be cut off by slaughter. (The sword of Ezekiel 5) Another identification of Teman is now attributable to the Serpents.
For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever. - Obadiah 1:10
It again shifts, but this time the Lord is speaking to the Scorpions. "For thy violence against thy brother Jacob, (The Multitude) shame shall cover thee, (The sun shall be ashamed) and thou shalt be cut off for ever." There are 2/3 that are cut off and die in Zechariah 13:8.
These next verses actually sound like the indictment that will be said by the Lord to the Scorpions at the Great White Throne Judgement.
In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. - Obadiah 1:11
"In the day (The Tribulation, Day of the Lord) that thou stoodest on the other side, (Other side was an under-definition for fornications not repented of in the 6th trumpet) in the day that the strangers (Serpents) carried away captive (Brought into captivity by the Scorpions) his forces, (Multitude) and foreigners (Serpents) entered into his (Jerusalem’s/Multitude's) gates, and cast lots (By the Scorpions) upon Jerusalem, (Multitude) even thou wast as one of them." (You were one of them that did this)
But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. - Obadiah 1:12
"But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger (the Multitude was a brother to you (Scorpions) until they woke up to the truth and became one of the Multitude, they then became a stranger to you (Scorpions)); neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah (Multitude) in the day of their destruction; (The captivity and the murder of the Multitude) neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly (You were just so high minded when you mocked the Multitude, you made fun of them, chiding and making railing accusations with your lying words) in the day of distress." (Tribulation)
Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity; - Obadiah 1:13
"Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people (You shouldn’t have been a party to this) in the day of their calamity; (The Multitude’s destruction) yea, thou shouldest not have looked (Watched this happen, or spied them out for capture) on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance (Stolen their goods) in the day of their calamity;"
Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress. - Obadiah 1:14
"Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway; to cut off those of his (Multitude) that did escape; (The Multitude fled as fugitives but you were a scout and a sentry to report and grab any that escaped the initial seizing) neither shouldest thou have delivered up (Turned in for reward) those of his (The Multitude) that did remain (That didn’t flee) in the day of distress," (Tribulation)
Crossway means; a fork in the road, rapine. Rapine means; to snatch, seize, the act of seizing and carrying off by force the property of others, plunder, pillage. [2]
For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head. - Obadiah 1:15
All of those that leadeth into captivity shall be led into captivity, and those that killed with the sword shall die by the sword. [3]
For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been. - Obadiah 1:16
“For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, (You have tasted of the heavenly gift, you have eaten and drank in my presence just as Judas had done) so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been." (You will not exist, you shall be cut off and die, and shall be cast into the lake of fire)
But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions. - Obadiah 1:17
“But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, (My Holy Mountain) and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob (The Multitude) shall possess their (Your) possessions.”
The Trumpet Judgements are the Wrath of God upon His Church. They have strayed away from the Lord and 2/3 of them are so far gone that the Lord delivers them to a strong delusion. For they love not the truth, they will go all the way bad. They will give away their true birthright and thus cause the Lord to become jealous over His people, that being the Multitude.
The Lord shortens the days of the Multitude and the Wicked, for if He did not, even the very elect (The Multitude) would eventually go bad. They eventually would be corrupted to the point of losing any chance of being redeemed if they were to live out their normal lifespan.
The understanding of the metaphors that are used throughout the scripture opens up the books, just as the Lord states in Daniel. In the time of the end the vision will be understood and the books will be opened, and if the books are opened, the end is upon us, even at the door.
The betrayal and crucifixion of Jesus Christ was a fulfillment of scripture. The same exact repeat is happening with the betrayal of the Multitude and their murder in the Judas Cycle. So scripture can be fulfilled. This is very important to keep in mind. We are studying these things to find out the details of how this is to occur, so that we can be used of the Lord in whatever capacity that He wishes to use us as is our willingness to be used.
The Lord is raising up 144,000 witnesses to preach His Word to a dying world. That dying world is the Multitude. How are they going to hear the truth? It will come from people like you and I that understand these things. That is why it is important to study these things for how can we inform the Multitude of what is occurring, if we ourselves do not know?
Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. - Amos 3:7
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word. - Psalm 148:8
Let us study to show ourselves approved.
May the Lord bless the Remnant of Israel and may He have mercy upon the Multitude.

Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word. - Psalm 148:8
Let us study to show ourselves approved.
May the Lord bless the Remnant of Israel and may He have mercy upon the Multitude.
