Revelation 6:12
Revelation 6:12 When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold,
there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full
moon became like blood,
Revelation 6:13 and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig
tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale.
Revelation 6:14 The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up,
and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
Revelation 6:15 Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the
generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave[1] and
free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains,
Revelation 6:16 calling to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and
hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of
the Lamb,
Revelation 6:17 for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can
stand?"
When Jesus opened the fifth seal
John showed as some souls (martyr) are standing under alter and plead to the
God to take avenge against the earth people who killed them. God replied them
wait for the count full fill. Now the Lamp opening the sixth seal, when He open,
there are many incidents are taking place on the earth. That means God starting
his avenge against the wicked people on earth. He start pouring out his wrath
against the wicked. The 6th seal coincides with the beginning of
great tribulation which is the 2nd half of Daniel’s 70th
week.
There are many prophecies
foretold by many prophets what will happen after the tribulation and before the
doom day. Let’s start see the prophecies from the bible.
Matthew 24:32 "From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out
its leaves, you know that summer is near.
Jesus prophesied about the great
tribulation time.
Matthew 24:21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as
has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.
Here Jesus mention “For THEN” why
He starting like this ? if we see the Mat.chapter 24 talking about the end of
the age. The first 20 verses He talking about the tribulation period. When the
Great tribulation period will start? The Antichrist will give the offering in
the temple of Jerusalem. This was mentioned by Jesus before this verse
Mat.24:15
Matthew 24:15 "So
when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel,
standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),
In this time only all people eyes
will be open especially the Judea tribe understand the Christ.
John stating in this sixth seal what
are the incidents will take place in great tribulation period.

Why the Sun became dark ?

noon on that day when the sun is darkened
Eclipse
What Joel and Revelation both describe are a
solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse. During solar eclipses the sun is obscured by
the moon except for wisps of light around the corona as if a hairy sackcloth
was put in front of the sun. Lunar eclipses often cause the moon to not
disappear completely but turn shades of orange and red.
Joel 2:31
The darkening of the sun and the moon turning red like blood (Joel 2:31 NIV).
The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.
Eclipse Pattern Found In NASA 2015 Data
In 2015 there will be a a pair of solar and lunar
eclipses two weeks apart (on the new moon and full moon) one in the Spring and
one in the Fall. This could produce four blood moon eclipses in a row, rarity.
