Seventh Trump
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Corinthians 15:52  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Some claim that the last trumpet mentioned in I Corinthians 15:52 is different from the seventh or last trump mentioned in Revelation 11:15. But notice in Revelation 11:18 that John is inspired to write that the seventh trump is the time of the resurrection! John is describing the same momentous event Paul does in I Thessalonians 4 and I Corinthians 15. Thus we see that Christ will return and the saints will be resurrected at the mighty blast of a great trumpet which will be heard by all the earth! The Sensational Return of Jesus Christ!

1 Thessalonians 4:13  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) What follows this verse is the instruction regarding the return of Jesus Christ at the seventh trump. So, where in the grand scheme of things is AD 50, the date of Paul's writing of this epistle? It is a mere nineteen years after Christ's death and resurrection, and He has not returned yet. It is a topic of hot conversation in the fellowship of the people of the church of God. Some are beginning to worry; some are beginning to feel that it is taken too long. Their hope is being deferred. So, Paul has to write them, instructing them about the return of Jesus Christ, and to exhort them to get their hope back on track! John W. Ritenbaugh How to Know We Love Christ

Revelation 10:6  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) In Revelation 7:1, time and events were held back, but once the seventh trumpet sounds, things will unfold without interruption until their conclusion. John W. Ritenbaugh Revelation 10 and the Laodicean Church

Revelation 15:1  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) The seventh or last trumpet (Revelation 11:15) consummates—COMPLETES—God's wrath. How? By announcing the terrifying "seven last plagues"! The Moffatt translation renders the last part of Revelation 15:1: "For they [the seven last plagues] complete the wrath of God." The Sensational Return of Jesus Christ!
