Revelation's 6th trumpet
about to sound?
Carl Gallups riveting readers as events align with prophecy
Carl Gallups riveting readers as events align with prophecy
The rise of the Islamic State was horrifying,
unexpected, shocking.
And perhaps predicted by the Bible itself.
Christians around the country are noticing contemporary events are lining up with prophecy, especially the terrifying warning of a great war to come. Author Carl Gallups says Christians need to face the possibility that the "trumpet days" of Revelation already are here, and the sixth trumpet may be about to sound.
Gallups details his views in "Final Warning: Understanding the Trumpet Days of Revelation." Even a brief introduction to his work reveals startling correlations between Bible prophecy and contemporary reality.
Gallups notes: "The sixth trumpet vision (found in Revelation 9:13-21) speaks of a great war, bigger than anything the world has seen to date. The prophecy declares that this war will take place in the area of the Euphrates River – in the veritable heart of the Middle East. Bible students sometimes refer to the war of the sixth trumpet vision as The Coming World War III.
"This 'coincidence' is simply too large to ignore. The Euphrates River begins in the mountains of northern Turkey and runs down through Syria, then through Iraq and into the Persian Gulf. This entire area just happens to be the current hotbed of the geopolitical focus of the world and the main stomping grounds of ISIS. These particular nations along the Euphrates, and the ones that surround them, are all major players in today's terror climate and Middle East upheaval."
He said, "Added to the prophetic mix is the fact that the sixth trumpet vision speaks of the vastly spiritual nature of this particular war (four angels being bound at the Euphrates River for this day and hour). Many cannot help but think of the Islamic, Israeli, and Christian connections to the brewing disaster scenario in the Middle East at this very moment."
Not surprisingly, Christian leaders and eschatological experts find Gallups' work invaluable.

But Gallups sees his
role as straightforward. He is simply presenting the evidence as he sees it.
"I want to spiritually and physically prepare the church for the possibility of some tough times ahead," he said.
If the current state of the Middle East is any indication, they may have already begun.
