"Rev. 9  Abaddon, Destroyer, Saddam"


 
I'm sharing another one of Irving Baxter's teachings. The description of fifth trumpet in Revelation 9:2 includes the following ...." The sun and sky were darkened by the smoke from the Abyss."  Also in Rev. 9:11 "...They had a king over them...whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon." Baxter and others translate this name as "Destroyer".
 
Baxter believes that the burning of the oil wells in the Gulf War/Desert Storm fulfills Rev: 9:2, and  according to his research, the name "Saddam" means Destroyer. (Supposedly his mother chose that name after a horrific childbirth.)
 
You can read about his interpretations of the other trumpets on his website www.endtime.com.  I must warn you, dear Doves, that he is a post-tribber, but filled with the Spirit, very humble, and on fire about getting the Word out.
 
Despite our differences, he is joining us is proclaiming, "Wake up, World! It's much later than you think!"
