The Seventh Trumpet and the Seven Thunders by Russell Stendal Review

We interpret much of the Old Testament in light of the New Testament, but the keys to the signs and symbols of the book of The Revelation of Jesus Christ are found in the Old Testament. This is where we discover the message of the seventh trumpet. It will sound along with the previous six trumpets on the last day, but the Lord has been sounding this message throughout all of history. The trumpet symbolizes the direct voice of God and the gospel of redemption. It was blown to warn of danger and announce that there is shelter and protection in God.
So what does the Lord require of us so that we may participate in His plan of redemption?
In this book, you’ll discover:
  • Cross-referenced scriptures unveiling the definition of the seventh trumpet and seven thunders.
  • How trials, tribulation, and adversity are used by God to develop our spiritual eyesight 
  • Incredible symbolism concerning Noah, the Ark, and God’s plan for us today.
  • Insights concerning the altar, blood, and communion with God.
  • Revealing details of Leviathan and our current government and institutions.
  • Scripture references indicating widespread false new births and “spiritual abortions”, and what a genuine new birth looks like.
  • God’s requirements for individuals in order to escape the day of wrath.
The Seventh Trumpet will help you connect the dots, bringing end times Bible prophecy and all that is involved into clearer light. The antichrist, rapture of the church, second coming of Jesus and predictions concerning the end of the world will all make more sense.

My Review:
This is an interesting book about the Old Testament. The book of Revelation is one of the most well known, and probably the one I know the most about. In fact Noah's Ark in my favorite part of the Bible and I loved reading about it's Prophecy. Genesis is very interesting to me to read about how God started and how he had a plan for everything. It is amazing to read about. I liked that the author had little snippets of information that pertained to the Bible. For instance how important the word Grace is in God's vocabulary. I liked reading throw all the revelations and how they corresponded to the voice of God (or trumpet). Redemption is very important to Christians and that is why we go to confession. There is a whole chapter on redemption. The fifth Beatitude, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy", is a perfect quote from this chapter. There are also chapters on The Altar, The Gospel, Leviathan, The New Birth, Two Covenants, Two Women and Two Mountains. In each chapter I found something interesting. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review from Life Sentence Publishing, however all opinions are my own.
