ELEVEN:

The trumpets are also a revelation of time. See Rev. 9:5:

"And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man."

These five months began when the Turks made incursions into the Greek territories, according to Gibbon, in the year 1299, on the 27th day of July. 5 months is 150 years, 5 x 30 = 150. This trumpet ended in 1449.

And the sixth trumpet began to sound, and was to sound 391 years and 15 days, as in Rev. 9:15:

"And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year for to slay the third part of men;"

and ended 1840 on the 11th of August. Then the seventh trumpet begins, and ends with the fulness of times.

Rev. 10:5, 7:

"And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth, lifted up his hand to heaven, and swear by him that liveth forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: 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."

And synchronizes with Daniel 12:7.

See section 7, where it is shown to end in the year 1843.
