Demonic Horror
The fifth trumpet brings the scourge
Of locust. A huge star personified
As Destruction opens the yawning
Abyss, and smoke darkens the sun.
In Revelation the abyss is the
Place of intermediate punishment
For fallen angels, the beast, the
False prophets and Satan.
The smoke which had darkened the
Sun, turns out to be locust with
Stingers like scorpions to torment
Men until they desire to die.
They were told to harm only the
Enemies of God, and to injure not
God’s marked people. These are safe,
While evil suffers their last chance.
God is faithful to the just and unjust.
Believers are marked with God’s seal.
In the visions the unjust have suffered,
And given time but repent not.
Remember all the visions are
Symbolic, and not to be taken
Literally. They are a piling of
Demonic horror upon horror.
