My Brother asked me:
"When the first 2 trumpets sound and judgments fall, that remind people of the plagues on Egypt that the Bible talked about, what will be going through their minds?"
      My response:
What will they think? Great question. I'm convinced that you are correct, that they will remember the plagues in Egypt, that it clearly wasn't a fable like they may have thought, leaving them terrified as to what may yet be coming, possibly leaving them overwhelmed with fear, worrying about whether something like the death of the firstborn, might possibly be repeated upon them.
