I still think this is referring to the last trump as in the 7th trump.
Just because the angels as servants of God are the ones blowing the trumpets, does not mean they are not God's trumpets.
Can you give me a reason from scripture why this trumpet could not be the 7th trumpet?
I think we would need to find an answer as to also why it would not be the 7th Angelic Trumpet.
The trump of God, sounds and we are caught up.
1Co_15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Th_4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
For it to be the 7th Angelic Trumpet, I would need something connecting it to the 7th angelic trumpet. We have believers caught up, we have a resurrection event in Paul's account. These are very big events here as Paul mentioned them 3 times.
Rev_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.
The 7th Angelic Trumpet ends Tribulation. Jesus said Immediately after tribulation he comes and the sun, moon stars go crazy. That would be the 6th and 7th seal.
Rev_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.
Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and
thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
6th Seal:
Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Rev 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
John unfortunately did not write in the order of things but as given. These events follow Jesus coming with the angels and the angels take the tares off the earth.
Rev 14:16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
Rev 14:17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
Rev 14:18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
Even one that gets reaped after this even gets thrown into a bad place.
Rev 14:19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
Nothing is ever mentioned in the event after the 7th Angelic trumpet about "US" being gathered up by the Lord. The tares are gathered, and those that die in the Lord from that time rule with the Lord.
There is nothing that ties Paul's Trumpets with the 7th Angelic trumpet in Revelation. Trumpets just start and stop events.
Jesus said there will be a tribulation on the Earth that has never been seen and will not be seen since.
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Dan 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people:
and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time:
and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
Dan 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
At the time the tribulation starts all those written in the book are delivered... Michael is there.
1Th_4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Micheal is here. Michael is the Archangel.
Jud_1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
At the time of tribulation, We are delivered, there is a resurrection event.
John is told to come up!!
Rev 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said,
Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.
John shows up in the throne room ..... and there.
Rev 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
Rev 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
Is everyone of all the nations that had been redeemed by the blood numbering in the 10's of thousands and 10's of thousands.
Luk_21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Escape all that Jesus said above in Luke 21. Everything, the trumpets, seals and vials.
This is why the 7th angelic trumpet is not the Trumpet where Michael is standing by the Lord in Paul's account and Danial's.
Scripture comparison.
Mike.
