The second advent of Jehoshua Messiah, Revelation 11:15-19

Revelation 11:15-19

15And the seventh angel sounded; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, The kingdom of the world is become [the kingdom] of our Lord, and of his Christ: and he shall reign for ever and ever.16And the four and twenty elders, who sit before God on their thrones, fell upon their faces and worshipped God,17saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty, who art and who wast; because thou hast taken thy great power, and didst reign.18And the nations were wroth, and thy wrath came, and the time of the dead to be judged, and [the time] to give their reward to thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and to them that fear thy name, the small and the great; and to destroy them that destroy the earth.19And there was opened the temple of God that is in heaven; and there was seen in his temple the ark of his covenant; and there followed lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.

Verse 15, The seventh angel sounding his trumpet coincides with the kingdoms of this world becoming the Kingdoms of our God and His Messiah. This is when the eternal Kingdom of God comes to earth and He will reign forever as the Kingdom will be handed over to Him from the Son (1 Corinthians 15:24-28).

Verse 16, the 24 elders who are likely angels prostrate themselves before Jehovah God and worship Him. The sounding of the seventh angel and the Kingdoms of this world becoming the Kingdoms of God is a cause for the angels to bow to the Father in reverance.

Verse 17, they praise Jehovah God Almighty who art and who wast echoing Revelation 1:4; 1:8 and 4:8 that refer to the Father as the one "who is, who was and who is to come". This shows that the 24 elders are worshipping the Father as Jehovah God Almighty. The seventh trumpet brings in the Kingdom of Jehovah God upon the earth where He will reign forever.

Verse 18, prior to the coming of Jehovah's Kingdom the nations are angry and they have taken counsel against Jehovah and His anointed one (Psalm 2:1). Jehovah will vex the nations in His sore displeasure and pour His wrath out on them. This will be the great and terrible day of Jehovah where the dead will be resurrected and then judged. All the dead will be raised up at one time as Jehoshua states in John 5:28-29.

Those who are in covenant with the Son of God and His Father will be given rewards. Those who are not in covenant with the Son of God and His Father are those who destroy the earth as sins brings death and causes the land to be defiled. It will be those that fear the name of Jehovah God that will be rewarded and to fear Him means to keep His commandments.

Verse 19, in connection with the second advent of Jehoshua Messiah and the day of Judgment is the opening of the temple in heaven in which the ark of the covenant is seen. In the ark of the covenant is the 10 commandments and this is seen in connection being poured out on the nations. This picture is seen in the prophecy of Isaiah 24:

5 The earth also is polluted under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

We see that the violation of Jehovah's commandments is what causes Him to pour fire out on the earth and it's inhabitants. Contrary to the popular belief that God's 10 commandments are abolished the 10 commandments are seen in the holy of holies in connection with the saints being rewarded and those who destroy the earth being destroyed.

Revelation 22:14-15

14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.15For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

It is only those that keep God's commandments that enter into New Jerusalem and eat of the tree of life.
