Today Revelation Meditation : 30/05/2026 The book of Revelation Explanation Post -222 XIX) 3) "At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven." (Revelation 11:13) Beloved saints of the Lord, we learn that when the sixth seal was opened, "there was a great earthquake" (Revelation 6:12). According to Revelation 9:13, when the sixth trumpet sounded, we read that a voice came "from the four horns" of the golden altar. We can also understand from Revelation 16:18 that during the days when the seventh angel poured out the bowl of God’s wrath, "there was a severe earthquake." Although these three judgments originating from God are distinct from one another, they appear to be interconnected. We can read in Revelation 11:8 that because the city of Jerusalem was responsible for the murder of the two witnesses clothed in sackcloth, it was figuratively called Sodom and Egypt. Therefore, God punishes the city of Jerusalem. A tenth of the city collapses due to the earthquake. (We know that ten is a number of completeness, as seen in the Ten Commandments, the ten plagues, the ten virgins, and the ten righteous men). As a result, seven thousand people perish. The same God who said in the days of Elijah, "I reserve seven thousand in Israel—all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him" (1 Kings 19:18), here kills exactly seven thousand people. The number of the remaining survivors in Jerusalem is not mentioned. Those who witnessed the earthquake and the deaths of the people were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven. The title "God of heaven" is used in the Book of Revelation only in this verse and in Revelation 16:11. They must have been convicted as a result of the two witnesses being murdered, shedding their blood, and dying, and because God acknowledged their death by taking them up to heaven. They might have glorified God as a result of recognizing and understanding who the true God is. However, just because they recognized God’s power, it cannot be accepted that they were saved. This is because the Lord God has said nothing about them experiencing conviction of sin, confessing it, and receiving forgiveness for their sins. Satan also knows the true God and His power, but that did not bring him salvation. Salvation is obtained only when a person completely surrenders their life and soul to God.
