Seventh Seal: Silence in Heaven
Prelude to trumpet judgments
From the teaching of Apostle Mary Banks
When the seventh seal is opened, the purpose of the seals is complete. There is silence in heaven, not action, because the revelation of the information on the outside of the book has been completely received. Now it is time to receive the information that was hidden within the book.
Seal 7 was the final seal keeping the book closed; once it was opened, the book itself could now be opened and read. Hence the silence in heaven, given in reverence, because the time had come for the once-sealed secrets of God concerning the end to be revealed to all.
What is the first thing that happens once the book is opened and read? Not a seal. Not a horse. The angels with the seven trumpets align and the trumpet judgments begin. This is the first point where events actually unfold on the prophetic timeline.
The scriptures
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
