Revelation 18

1. Another Movement

This is the message that God commanded to be given to the world. It is the third angel’s message, which is to be proclaimed with a loud voice, and attended with the outpouring of His Spirit in a large measure. {TM 91.2}

The call of Jesus if any man will open the door was being heeded in the experience of the Laodicean ministry. There were some who opened their hearts to that. With that opening of the heart, came the Revelation 18 angel. We see another angel coming into focus in this history. Jesus says you are lukewarm but if anyone open the door I will come into him and the message can be proclaimed with power.

2. The Description of This Angel

When that happened with Enoch, when Jesus himself was on this planet and all the glory of God was shining as it is to shine in these people, this small number of people that the whole earth will know about, how will it be accepted?
John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

3. The History of This Angel

The powers of evil will not yield up the conflict without a struggle. But Providence has a part to act in the battle of Armageddon. When the earth is lighted with the glory of the angel of Revelation eighteen, the religious elements, good and evil, will awake from slumber, and the armies of the living God will take the field.–7BC 983 (1899). {LDE 251.3}

Five Celestial Messengers

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

25. The 144,000 — From Whence Are They?

Where did they come from? From what period of time? From what circumstances? Just as the angels are holding the four winds of the earth and could have let them go but the angel comes and says hold, don’t let go until we have sealed the servants in their foreheads. The description of this time of God’s wrath is to be poured out is depicted in Jeremiah. You can see the time the angels are being told not to let go just yet. This is speaking of the cup of Gods fury being poured out, the plagues about;

Jeremiah 25:17 Then took I the cup at the LORD’S hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the LORD had sent me:

Then it goes into the description of the destruction of all the nations that is the winds.

Jeremiah 25:31 A noise shall come [even] to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them [that are] wicked to the sword, saith the LORD.
25:32 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

How big a whirlwind was this? From the coasts of the earth. You can see the angels holding the four winds, east, west, north south.
