"Mystery of God in Revelation 10:7"


 
Hi John and Doves,


Revelation 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

"as he hath declared to his servants the prophets."

This mystery has a origin. It began at the time God declared a message to his ancient servants and prophets. Some suggest the mystery is rapture. But it can't be because since Paul revealed the rapture to us in first century, it's no longer a mystery. Even little children hear about the rapture. Some suggest this mystery is the commencement of God's kingdom on earth.  It can't be either because kingdom of God is not much a mystery to us. Jesus has told us this kingdom would come, so did Paul. 

In Leviticus 25, we did find God has declared a message to Moses the prophet and Israelis the servants.

Leviticus 25:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD. 3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof; 4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

God declared a seventh year sabbath unto the land to Moses and Israelis. They are not allowed to sow or plant in the seventh year. 

8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years. 9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land. 10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

God went on further to ordain a 49 years cycle, and hallow the 50th year as a jubile unto them, to proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof. Since Israelis entered the land in 1404 BC, and observed the land for Sabbath for one year,  in 1403 BC, the jubilee cycles has begun to roll. In 2021, there have been 3423 years since God ordained the jubilee, and 69th jubilee has appeared in 1979. The issue is, no one knows when will God pause these jubilee cycles, and tells His Son Jesus to return to Jerusalem to proclaim liberty to the people and to the land. Having said this, God's mystery in Revelation 10:7 has something to do with how many jubilees has God ordained. Did he ordain 70 jubilee, 71 jubilee, 75 jubilee, or other numbers?

Take 2029 for example, if Jesus returns to earth in 2029,  then there has been 70 jubilees since it began in 1403 BC. The 7th angel shall sound the 7th trumpet on Day of Atonement in 2028 (Leviticus 25:8-9) to hallow the arrival of 2029 as the 70th jubilee.  By then, God's mystery is finally finished, because heaven will know God did number the jubilees to 70 cycles.

Revelation 11:15 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. 16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, 17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

Heaven rejoice at the sounding of the 7th trumpet, because they have been waiting for this arrival of 70th jubilee for 3430 years. The kingdoms of the world are becoming the kingdom of God. This is why the 24 elders bow down and worship God. 7th trumpet brings in 7 vials judgment. Before Jesus returns to earth shortly, Jesus shall unleash 7 vials judgment which is God's final wrath on earth.

And immediately after the 7th vial judgment, Jesus  returns to earth, and establishes God's kingdom on earth.

Make my long story short. God's mystery in Revelation 10:7 has to do with the number of Jubilees which He has declared to His prophet Moses and His servant Israelis. Since 70 represents completion, perfection in God's design, my belief is God has ordained a 70 jubilees.  7th trumpet shall be blown on Tishri 10, on the Day of Atonement in 2028, to hallow the arrival of 70th jubilee which is 2029. When the 7th angel blows the 7th trumpet in that day, God's mystery is finally finished. God's mystery is 70 jubilees.
