The 7th Trumpet -- The 3rd Woe!

The Unveiling of the 7 Last Vials (Plagues)
Part Three

Neal Frisby, The 7th Trumpet -- The 3rd Woe! BK 18 | October 17, 1973

Editor's Note:  See the 7 Year Tribulation Timeline for additional understanding of the events listed in the Bible

The following notes and excerpts are taken from the message delivered by Evangelist Neal Frisby. These excerpts do not represent all pertinent statements from the message.

Pg 4

The man-child is raptured and the Lord said that you cannot curse that Bride!

When he brings that Man-child and he's born there, you cannot put a curse on it neither can you take them through a curse or anything during the Tribulation.  They'll go into edge part or near but not into "the Great Tribulation where the trumpets start!"  They're out then, (Bride) they're gone! They're caught up in the silence, they're before the Lord then!

Balaam tried to curse the Children of Israel! But he couldn't do it! He tried to do it, money, silver and gold and he couldn't curse them and the Lord God said, You can't curse them, because I've turned your curse into a blessing.  You can't do it!

Balak said, I'll give you gold, and silver and all these things -- curse them Balaam, curse them. And Balaam said, I cannot curse them, don't you believe I wish I could curse them?

He wanted all of that! The great honors and the great position. But he couldn't curse them! (But he told Balak how some of them could be cursed!) -- And he began to prophesy and he began to tell of great things. But the Bible gives us Scriptures -- although he couldn't curse the Children of Israel, he wanted to but he couldn't, because what God has blessed there's no Balaam prophet can curse with all the devils from Abaddon -- he's shut back! Can't do it!

Pg 5

Now Balaam taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the Children of Israel.

Revelation 2:14-15
14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam [idolotry], who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication. 15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. (Mostly spiritual fornication and some of the physical too.)

Same thing in Numbers 31:16-18 -- how that Balaam, he could not curse the children of Israel, because God had blessed them! But he told Balak, have fellowship with them, invite them over here and then he said God will have to do something and they'll be under a curse (judgment). But did you know, they had to come under that! God didn't put it on them. (They put it on themselves.)

They came over there but the rest of the children of Israel stayed with the powerful prophet Moses and God stayed with him! But a plague broke out, like tribulation, the plague broke out and thousands of the children of Israel perished because they committed fornication and ate things to idols and God said -- Stay out of there!  Balaam couldn't curse them but he found a way and he told Balak how to do it! And today, we know the man-child is caught up in the first fruits and the Balaam prophets are running around to seduce people.

They're trying to preach that the Bride's going clear through the Tribulation to the end of the Great Day of the Lord and die in the tribulation. My Bible says the Man-child was raptured (translated -- Rev. 12:5) and shall rule the nations with a rod of iron! (Balaam prophets! You can't curse what God blessed!)

Revelation 12:5
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

The Elect of God is in God's hand! There are Tribulation saints, they do go through there - the foolish virgins, which He knew not at that hour. They had no oil! We know the children of Israel are called the saints and they also go through the Tribulation because they are sealed then!

Pg 6

I'll make this plain. God loves His children! We'll go up into some parts there and then when the Antichrist reveals himself at that moment -- the Man-child is caught away, the great tribulation of the Great Tribulation is forty-two months, the seed flees to the wilderness, the Elect is caught up with God in the silence and there it begins on the face of the earth and nothing can stop it!

Now during these trumpets when they start there are forty-two months at that time. The beast reveals himself as satan's masterpiece and he gives the mark of the beast and the image and many millions give their life for their faith.

During the trumpets, as we start, I'm going to review this now! During the trumpets, the first four trumpets -- the celestial judgments -- then on the fifth trumpet, we have the first woe! And the sixth trumpet, the second woe! And then we have the "third woe" as God gave them in order.

Remember while these two prophets were upon the earth in Revelation chapter 11, there were plagues upon the earth -- these were the trumpet plagues but not the Great Plagues of the Lord at the great Armageddon, at the Great Day of the Lord! Those are golden vials then, which are different. These are a third here and a third there! Those [vial plagues] are world-wide in scope as they take place.

While these two prophets are upon the earth, there are curses upon the earth and they finally kill them because it said, they tormented those that lived upon the earth. And in the first and second woe which is the fifth and sixth trumpet, the demon locusts came out of the pit. And of Abaddon where Apollyon was down below and unloosed it with a key -- a fallen angel from heaven came! And the infernal horsemen were upon the earth, as it wracked the earth and death in every direction! Stinging like scorpions and wild horses -- demon powers on the face of the earth -- as God gave it!  Now the two woes are over with on the sixth thrumpet the two witnesses leave -- the two prophets, they're gone from here!

Pg 7

Now the fifth trumpet is the first woe. The second woe is the sixth trumpet and now we go to the seventh trumpet and the third woe.​

Revelation 11:14-15
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
15 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 for ever and ever.

Revelation 11:18-19
18 And the nations were angry, and thy [God's] wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small [in faith] and great [in faith]; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
19 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.

God's about to visit the earth with His golden vials! At the beginning of the forty-two months of the Great Tribulation, began the Trumpets. Now at the 7th Trumpet.. the two events are separated -- these are the golden vials, where those [previous plagues] were the trumpets!​

No remember the last words here on the second woe when it was past, we read the temple of God opened in heaven!

 

Pg 8

 

Revelation 15:1-2

1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass [people of time] mingled with fire [tribulation saints]: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand [tribulation saints stand] on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

Already out!  [The tribulation saints] The Great Day of the Lord is going to visit us now!  The Great Day of the Lord, the last vials, plagues -- they're referred to in numerous ways. As the third woe -- Rev. 11:14 -- the seventh trumpet, Rev 11:15 -- the wrath of God. Rev. 11:18  -- and 15:1 -- it's also known as the hour of judgment, Rev. 14:7 and then it's known as the wine press of the wrath of God -- Rev. 14:19. And then of course, the seven last plagues -- Rev. 15:1 again.

 

Revelation 14:19
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

Revelation 15:6-7
6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen (they have no trumpets, they just have golden vials -- Deity, God! "There's no mercy, it's not mixed with mercy like the trumpets -- it's pure judgement!) , and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. 
7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. (Now this is Deity working!)

"Now we go back into the temple again like it was in Revelation 11 at the end of that chapter.  Here we are in Revelation chapter 15:8. 

Revelation 11:19
19 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.

​Revelation 15:8
8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

Judgment is going to visit the earth now -- the whole earth. There is no mercy, the wrath of God is coming down!

Revelation 16:1

1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

Now in the trumpets, there were a third [impacted] here and a third there.  In the vials, the last plagues of God -- it's worldwide in scope, almost universal shaking begins here! 

Pg 9

Everything begins to intensify -- the crecendo begins to pick up and the magnitude begins to spread like a huge cloud from the trumpets right into when God's hand begins to deal for the last time on the face of the earth!

Revelation 16:2
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.

 

A noisome, grievous sore -- you remember in Egypt, the plague of boils. It was Exodus 9:8-12. This first vial plague is like the sixth plague of boils that smote Egypt, only it's a scope worldwide here!

 

It was a noisome and grievous sore upon men which had the mark of the beast and worshipped his image. Now noisome -- it made noise. It seemed to pufferate - it was grievous, sort of like radiation had spread upon the ground from somewhere above, the vial was poured out intermingled with it -- who knows how God did it! But sores broke out upon them [that had the mark of the beast] and you could actually hear the sores!

 

Editor's note: HEMP (High-altitude Electro Magnetic Pulse) could cause grievous sores to those with the mark of the beast (electronic implanted chip)

 

There was no medical science, nothing could stop the sores, and men were being eaten up just like cancer from the outside and it even made a noise! It was bad enough that they had it on them but it made some kind of a noise as it began! And it fell, it says f-e-l-l it fell out of heaven upon them like some fall-out, radiation of some kin, maybe even more severe -- cosmic -- that God would put them on from the vial that was poured upon them. And it was poured upon flesh upon the face of the earth!

 

The Bible says here for them that worshipped the beast, and there was no way out! There was no way to cure it! It had been poured out from the golden vials of the Lord! Worldwide, as God began to visit man! Now that's the first great plague of the Great Day of the Lord!

 

Revelation 16:3
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.

It became red blood -- every sould in the sea died! Huge whales and mammoth fish and sharks from below spread to the top!

The smell of death was worldwide in every sea, and fish they had never seed before and things from beneath began to rise to the surface and it was bloody on top. In every direction it turned to pure blood. Men had rejected Christ's blood and now they are judged by blood God sent to them!

Pg 10

Although the two witnesses are gone their prayers bear heavy tolls as they prayed. And when they looked up towards Russia and China and they say there'll be famine, from Israel way before they leave back during the trumpets there'll be famine there! And finally the Bible said, that the kings of the East prepare and they come down like a cloud to storm Israel for food and to take over the world and the seaports and the fruit and the vegetables because famine is in the earth and God is judging it!

You remember in Exodus 7:20-25 the first plague was blood. Now that was just a little place in Egypt -- "now this plague is worldwide!" And it became as the blood of a dead man. And every living soul died in the sea. This is death now! Death upon the earth for those who rejected the gospel!

Scientists are completely bewildered -- they do not know what to think next. Those that try to repent, they can't repent and others, they don't want to repent -- they blaspheme God! and the plagues are getting worse and worse!

Now we move along into the third angel.

Revelation 16:4-7
4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. 6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

The angel said God was right in what He did! There was a witness that God had been merciful. Even during those trumpets it was a third here and a third there! But now the golden vials of Deity -- God's wrath without mixture, is worldwide! And what do they have to say now? You remember the antichrist killed millions through the ages and also at the end of time and now they're visited in their water by blood! For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy!

You see what they did? They rejected the blood of Jesus Christ -- eternal salvation! They rejected these things and now they're given blood to drink -- all the beautiful sweet fountains of water the angel has control of. He had control of the waters -- they are now turned to poison! You open up your faucet, you get blood to drink! You have coffee -- blood in it! Blood everywhere!

Everywhere you turn something on, the fountains in the pools and things at our parks and all around, blood in every direction!

Pg 11

What is God trying to put over? He's showing them the very thing they rejected has been cast back at them! Because now the Lord has His way after six thousand years.

Now quite a bit is given to this one. 

Revelation 16:7
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

There's another one to back Him up again. True and righteous are thy judgments. True and righteous are thy judgments!

And the third angel poured his vial out upon the rivers and the fountains of waters and they became blood. They rejected the gospel of Jesus Christ!

And the Angel backs Him up be saying, even from the alter -- the altar cries out -- God is righteous! Who knoweth the mind of God? He knows by providence and predestination all things, it says, from the beginning to the end? And who can counsel Me, the Lord said, what man is there or what other God can counsel me? There's been no other God! Neither none before Me nor after Me and never shall there be any more Gods or God but Me, saith the Lord, I AM!

Thus saith the Word of the Lord Jesus Christ!

He's the Eternal God and He's speaking to His people, is what He's trying to tell you. There's none before Him! The Lord was here! There's all kinds of graven images -- "but there's only One God!"

He has things right where He wants them! "You can't move Him. Abaddon is shoved back -- there's nothing can move. He just sits quite, you see, He's really Great! His wheels just burning -- showing that He's in motion while He's sitting there. Daniel said, I was caught up before the throne and His wheels were burning fire!

You see, the thing's spinning and God was just sitting! Showing that He wasn't just sitting still in one place but also He was moving by His Spirit in the universe and everywhere that He goes and upon the earth and everywere. You see Him in one place like this but believe me, He's controlling the whole universe, He's controlling many universes and all things and worlds and planets -- it doesn't make any difference, He's the Immortal God!

Pg 12

Revelation 16:8-9
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

They couldn't! They wouldn't! -- God gave them up! They wouldn't listen, and they blasphemed God and burned at the same time! Now he poured it upon the sun and they were scorched with great heat, Now the whole planetary system is being renovated back -- things are changing up at this point, the millennium is getting closer and things are beginning to happen. It's like cosmic radiation!

Something has happened! Why did the sun burn them? It's disturbed iinside no doubt and it's exploding at more intensity. God has stirred the sun up in there and the angel stirs the sun and it's more potent and men are scorched! That's one of the ways it could happen.

Another way is because of the great plagues which have been happening upon the earth and the vials being poured out -- possibly the seismic and cosmic explosions in the heavens have broken down the shield which protects us from the violet and the gamma rays and the cosmic rays that strike us and there was no more protection there. Men's skin begins to burn because the rays come through there's no more shield! Today we have a shield around the earth when we get the sun but the rays do not hurt us.

Evidently by the seismic and cosmic explosions occurring in the heavens and the plagues something has disappeared that protected them and they're scorched! Or then God disturbed the sun -- or both that caused these great things to happen to these men.

Some people believe it could be a great hydrogen bomb exploding -- or something like it. "The Lord can use that means, and He's about ready to judge Babylon and whne He does, we'll see some things happen then besides His vials that are poured out there.

Remember this -- God will put this earth through a baptism of fire and judgment and it'll be just islands moved out of their places and mountains leveled off! The whole earth opens up like a volcano, there'll be explosions here and earthquakes! But the Bible says He will not tottally destory the earth! He will renovate it back again and then later a new heavens and a new earth!

Pg 13

He will set in for the millennium first! So He doesn't entirely destroy everyone on the earth -- but there are few men left the Bible said, when He gets through, compared to what was there -- and the earth is completely shell-shocked through a baptism of fire! But it isn't totally destroyed, but believe me, it'll have an experience they'll never see the time before nor after when the Lord gets through with them!

The antichrist kingdom now is becoming shaky -- now he sees God's about to take over the world and the whole world is jarred to pieces.  They must do something quick! (They're getting ready to go to the sixth vial -- later on when we study it verse 12 -- to Armageddon!) Now watch this -- one more.  The sun burned them -- "and the fifth angel verse 10, 11 poured out his vial (plague) upon the seat of the beast; Now we're back to the seat of the beast again -- it's being shaken up!  His kingdom is being blown like a whirlwind, it's like a whirlwind in a sandstorm -- it's just crumbling and blowing and blowing in every direction. It's crumbling out from under him.

 

Revelation 16:10
10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 

His kingdom was pitch black! The other [vial] scorched men with fire and then suddenly pitch blackness set in worldwide as God began to deal with them in this kingdom that He would have of the beast here.

And it said because the sin was in this kingdom He turned it to utter blackness, because it had been full of sin in the kingdom of the beast here.  And it says -- "they gnawed their tongues for pain." After he poured the darkness, they gnawed their tongues for pain! Now the sore from the first vial that was poured out -- of the noisome and grievous sore -- is still on them as we find out right here -- it's still on them under the fifth plague of darkness!

You remember in Egypt, there was a dark plague (Exodus 10:21-23) and it was the tenth plague of Egypt where the first born died then (Exodus 11:4-5) -- and this is the fifth vial to match it. And was only in aportion then -- but this is cope in a magnitude unheard of before -- and they gnawed their tongues their kingdom is in utter blackness, in utter darkness and they gnawed their tongues. If that wasn't horrible enough -- and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores and repented not of their deeds.

Pg 14

The sores are still on them from the first plague. Now you say today, when people say -- when they don't agree with you, they don't believe in what you got -- they don't even believe in God after all of this! So you ought to be happy, you haven't got this to put up against! And they're still disagreeing with God! 

He put you on the earth to just siimply believe Him. Don't try to get somebody else to help you believe like it, when they don't want to. You believe God for yourself and the other man can go on if he doesn't believe, because they're not going to help you any. No, no, no. God's proved that! The Lord Jesus stood right there and He performed and raised the dead. It didn't bother them. he could do anything nearly, in front of them and what happened? They just turned around and illed Him. So how much more today, He said. If they do this to Me, He said, what will they do in a dry tree, what will they do? So we ought to take a lesson from all of it.

There's the plague that's poured out here -- the 5th plague of blackness and they blasphemed God! Now the earth is in darkness -- blackness! The whole earth is in chaos and great pain. Gigantic tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, comets, meteorites have struck the earth -- large asteroid bodies have been hurled to the earth now. The whole earth has erupted, pox in the ground -- canyons like the Grand Canyon, just opened up -- it split from one end to the other. Islands just disappearing into the sea! Part of the cities are gone -- and the whole earth has come up in remembrance before God! "Because the Almighty Hand of God has poured out His wrath!

Remember, this people, they repented not! You're able to say Lord forgive me -- help me Jesus. They wouldn't and couldn't do it. God gave them up!

Now those Hebrew children are sealed and we know protection is upon the earth, but we know this -- manypeople die for their faith during the time [tribulation saints].

Pg19

You live for God with all of your heart and the Bible says "that you may escape all of these things and stand before the Son of Man!

Escape ALL of these things and stand before the Son of Man! Isn't He wonderful!

This is the hour of destiny, God said, this is the time I've called for it. Because it's got to be sent at the time that His time cycles hit, the time when He calls for it. And the Lord calls for this, and the Lord sends it, He has a set time when He said, Moses get up and go. He had a set time when He said for Elijah to go. All of those men tried to kill Elijah and everyone of them tried to kill Elijah, and the Bible says he's still alive today! he was taken away in a chariot and they're all dead! Amen, glory to God!

They were trying to kill him and they couldn't kill him. They could not get ahold of God's man! And everyone of those who tried to tormen him and kill him are all dead and the Bible said the Elijah is still alive today -- he went away in a whirl of fire and caught up in a chariot with God -- he shall return before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord to give another witness, and amen, be caught up again!

We want you to pray: Jesus, I repent. I receive your Word I take Thy blood Lord, that was spilt for me. I know that by acting on the Word, I am saved. You saved me at the cross and it's finished! Now you begin to thank God for saving you. Ins't Jesus wonderful!
