The Last Trumpet, Part 2
Series Last Things
Today we concluded the passage on the Seven Trumpets.
The Seventh Trumpet corresponds to the Last Trumpet of 1 Corinthians 15:51-53.
Our souls do not sleep (2 Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 1:23; Hebrews 12:23; Revelation 6:9), but our bodies do, awaiting their resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:51-55).
Adam rebelled against God, and Satan seized control (John 12:31; 14:30; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Ephesians 2:1–3; Matthew 4:8-10; Luke 4:5-8).
But the Lord Jesus defeated Satan, sin, and death on the mountain where Jerusalem sits, as Isaiah foretold some 700 years before (Isaiah 25:7-8).
Because the Lord Jesus put others ahead of himself (Philippians 2:5-7), when he fulfilled the task of the first Adam, he gave it all up to the Father (1 Corinthians 15:20-29).
The return of Christ is still future for us. The Seventh Trumpet has not yet blown. However, there is a foreshadowing of this in the universal preaching of the gospel to all nations following the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple in AD 70 (Matthew 24:29-31).
