275) 2nd – 4th Trumpets: It’s The End Of The World As We Know It (Rev 8)

2nd Trumpet – Naval Power Destroyed By An Intercontinental Ballistic Missile

And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea:

  • and the third part of the sea became blood;
  • And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died;
  • and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

We know that this sea is located on earth because the creatures in this sea are defined to have life. This eliminates the hyper dimensional beings in the sea of outer space who are disconnected from the source of life.

The pattern I’m picking up is strike and counter-strike, standard war games, expecting that both sides are prepared to return fire. So in the scenario I’m proposing – based on current world news – is that the Eastern Alliance devastates the Western Alliance by crippling America’s fleet.

The Normandy Invasion of WWII provides some historical background for understanding what John is describing.

Codenamed Operation Overlord, the battle began on June 6, 1944, also known as D-Day, when some 156,000 American, British and Canadian forces landed on five beaches along a 50-mile stretch of the heavily fortified coast of France’s Normandy region. The invasion was one of the largest amphibious military assaults in history…The Normandy landings have been called the beginning of the end of war in Europe…

more than 5,000 ships and landing craft carrying troops and supplies left England for the trip across the Channel to France, while more than 11,000 aircraft were mobilized to provide air cover and support for the invasion…

Operation Neptune would bombard the Normandy coast from several miles off shore while overhead, waves of Allied aircraft headed for Normandy to pulverize what Adolf Hitler called the Atlantic Wall, “impregnable against every enemy.”

Allied strategists believed the wall’s fortifications could be destroyed by naval bombardment and aerial bombings. A briefing officer in England, describing the expected results, said, “Every grain of sand will be turned over twice before the first wave hits the beach.” But…aircraft had dropped their bombs far beyond the beaches because clouds obscured targets…

“Up to within a few hundred yards of the water’s edge,” says an official history, “there was every reason to hope that the enemy shore defenses might have been neutralized. Then, many of the leading craft began to come under fire from automatic weapons and artillery, which increased in volume as they approached touchdown.”

The Neptune plan had to be changed. Destroyers were ordered to risk grounding by steaming close to shore and firing their 5-inch guns as supporting fire for the men on the beach.

More than 4,000 Allied troops lost their lives in the D-Day invasion, with thousands more wounded or missing. At least 200 ships and landing craft sank off the beaches…

By 1957, salvagers had harvested 25,000 tons of Neptune metal off a stretch of D-Day beach from Omaha to Sword, the easternmost invasion beach.

During Desert Storm the U.S. Navy has five aircraft carriers in the waters around Iraq – three in the Persian Gulf and two in the Mediterranean Sea. Each of those carriers travels in a group of roughly 10 ships, which includes destroyers, guided-missile cruisers, a frigate, one or two submarines and a supply vessel.

The cruisers and destroyers exist largely to fire missiles. They are outfitted with MK-41 vertical launchers, built by Lockheed Martin Corp. in Middle River, and can carry more than 60 Tomahawks at a time.

At that time when 1/3 of America’s fleet was in the Persian Gulf, a massive combined strike from Iraq could have sunk it into the sea. This consideration continues to fit with the premise of America being on the defensive against an Eastern coalition.

“Since taking office (in 2019), President Trump has promised to increase the size of our naval fleet to 355 battle ships, re-establish the United States as the global power at sea to continue to secure our country while making it more prosperous…road map for achieving maritime supremacyand sending a strong message to our adversaries like China.

The Trump administration’s long-term shipbuilding plan projects spending $167 billion over five years to boost the Navy’s fleet as it confronts a rising China in the Pacific.

The plan relies on a national defense budget topline of $759 billion in fiscal 2022, adjusted for inflation in the future years.

The Red Sea crisis began on 19 October 2023, when the Iran-backed Houthi movement in Yemen launched missiles and armed drones at Israel, demanding an end to the invasion of the Gaza Strip. The Houthis have since seized and launched aerial attacks against dozens of merchant and naval vessels in the Red Sea, drawing hundreds of air strikes on missile sites and other targets by US and allied forces. The crisis is linked to the Israel–Hamas war, the Iran–Israel proxy conflict, the Iran–United States proxy conflict, and the Yemeni crisis.

According to the Israel-based news outlet, the Houthis are now using Chinese-designed weapons in their attacks. In exchange, the terror group will cease attacks on ships flying the Chinese flag. With a shared mutual contempt for the West, Beijing and Tehran’s collaboration in the region makes sense.

US strikes Houthi rebels in joint Yemen bombing with UK. How close are we to all-out war?

The strikes represent a significant escalation of U.S. involvement in the Middle East amid Israel’s war in Gaza − and perhaps the most dangerous escalation of a conflict that threatens to metastasize across the region.

“The U.S. has now put itself in a situation where more military action is all but assured, resulting in a tit-for-tat cycle that could quickly get out of hand,” said Daniel DePetris, a foreign affairs fellow at Defense Priorities, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank.

The U.S. Navy has entered sustained combat operations in the 5th Fleet Area of Operations after U.S. President Donald Trump promised “overwhelming lethal force” against Iranian-backed forces threatening U.S. forces in the region. The campaign will involve multiple rounds of proactive strikes on various targets, not limited to the retaliatory strikes seen in past strikes on Houthi positions, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

March 2025 – U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized the start of an extended campaign in the Red Sea.  U.S. fighters launched from the USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) have struck dozens of targets across Houthi-controlled Yemen in the past 24 hours.

The U.S. military is sending the USS Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group to the Middle East, ending its current deployment in east Asia to join the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group in the fight against Houthi forces around Yemen. 

3rd Trumpet – America’s Star Wars Returns Biological Weapons 

“And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp,”

Biological weapons disseminate disease-causing organisms or toxins to harm or kill humans, animals or plants.

They generally consist of two parts – a weaponized agent and a delivery mechanism. Biological weapons delivery systems can take a variety of forms. Past programmes have constructed missiles, bombs, hand grenades and rockets to deliver biological weapons.

“and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.”

Since an air-borne agent can literally blow back onto the sender via unpredictable winds, a water-born agent just makes sense.

The Great Himalayan Watershed (GHW) encompasses most of Asia’s rivers — today around 45 per cent of the world’s population depends on the watershed. This location targets Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the wealthy Southeast Asian Moslems, and economically powerful China, all of whom represent American enemies.

4th Trumpet – Nuclear Winter Across The Entire World

And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.

This cascade of events leading to the end of the world as we know it is not just prophecy by fanatical religious fundamentalists, it is a prediction by top scientists.

A snowball effect is how it rolls in the book A Path Where No Man Thought: Nuclear Winter and the End of the Arms Race by eminently popular atheist scientist Carl Sagan and Richard Turco. Published in 1990, it continues to be defended as a real and present danger by scientists.

A nuclear conflict reaches far beyond the two warring nations, said Coupe. “There are dire consequences not just for countries involved, but for the rest of the world.”

Recently updated geopolitical assessments have led scientists to warn that, one way or another, human misbehavior is bringing our world to an end.

for I have heard from the LORD God of hosts a consumption /utterly consumed, devastation, even determined upon the whole earth. ” (Isaiah 28:14-22)

Nuclear Winter: Global Consequences of Multiple Nuclear Explosions

R. P. TURCOO. B. TOONT. P. ACKERMANJ. B. POLLACK AND CARL SAGAN

SCIENCE• 23 Dec 1983• Vol 222, Issue 4630• pp. 1283-1292• DOI: 10.1126/science.222.4630.1283

subfreezing land temperatures may be caused by fine dust raised in high-yield nuclear surface bursts and by smoke from city and forest fires ignited by airbursts…in which dust and smoke are generated and encircle the earth within 1 to 2 weeks, average light levels can be reduced to a few percent of ambient and land temperatures can reach -15° to -25°C… even in summer…for months…radioactive fallout…of days to weeks can lead to chronic mean doses of up to 50 rads from external whole-body gamma-ray exposure, with a likely equal or greater internal dose from biologically active radionuclides…When combined with the prompt destruction from nuclear blast, fires, and fallout and the later enhancement of solar ultraviolet radiation due to ozone depletion, long-term exposure to cold, dark, and radioactivity could pose a serious threat to human survivors and to other species.

Nuclear Winter May Bring a Decade of Destruction

If nuclear war broke out between the United States and Russia…A nuclear winter would occur in the aftermath of nuclear blasts in cities; smoke would effectively block out sunlight, causing below-freezing temperatures to engulf the world.

important metropolitan areas—population centers or cities with strategic value, for example—would likely be targeted. And if those cities were hit, everything would likely burn…producing “a very dirty, sooty, smoke”… into the stratosphere…

They found that after simulated nuclear blasts, almost the entire Northern Hemisphere was engulfed in stratospheric soot within the first week. In 2 weeks, soot had invaded the Southern Hemisphere.

“Our research shows that in this U.S./Russia nuclear war scenario, nuclear winter would happen,” he said, adding that the models show an almost 10°C reduction in global mean surface temperature, extreme changes in precipitation, and a 90% reduction in the growing season across many parts of the midlatitudes.

To put things into perspective, Coupe said that the temperature change from preindustrial times to today was only 1°C. “But in nuclear winter, it approaches 10°C below the climatological mean after 2 or 3 years.”

Solar radiation, important not only for surface temperatures but also for photosynthesis, drops precipitously…around a 75% decrease…

Precipitation rates…drop about 58% after soot injection into the stratosphere. Patterns of rainfall also shift…

“And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!” (Revelation 8:13)

“Woe” is a primitive wordless vocalization of distress with the “w” formed by the abrupt opening of the mouth only to expel a scream of horror. It can be alternately recognized as “Ow!’ or ‘Oh!” in English. It is pronounced “Oy!” in Hebrew and “Oo-ah’-ee!” in Greek.

In every one of the 99 times it is pronounced in the Bible it announces certain doom, e.g. “Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone!” (Numbers 21:29)
