The Seven Eyes of the Lamb for the Building of God
The Lord’s worthiness to redeem mankind is sung in countless hymns - yet how many have praised the Lord for His worthiness to open the secret of God’s economy? Witness Lee opens up a view that goes far beyond the common understanding in light of the context of Revelation 5. He also expounds the vision concerning the Lamb having seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven Spirits of God (Rev. 5:6), and connects this to the central subject of the Bible – the building of God.
The Scene in Heaven after the Opening of the Seventh Seal and the Judgment upon the Earth, the Sea, the Rivers, the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars—the First Four Trumpets
Today we come to the scene in heaven after the opening of the seventh seal, and the trumpeting of the first four trumpets (Rev. 8:1-12). We see how understanding the connection between the three sets of “seven” (seals, trumpets and bowls) greatly help us to understand the prophecies. Finally, Witness Lee explains how the seven trumpets are a direct answer to the prayer of the saints, illustrating a crucial principle - God does not act until His people co-operate with Him through their prayer.
The Judgment upon Men—the Fifth Trumpet
In this programme we look at the “great tribulation” presented in Rev. 8:13-9:11. Lee unfolds the prophecy of the seventy weeks in Daniel 9 and Matthew 24, to ascertain the beginning of the great tribulation. With the sounding of the fifth trumpet, Satan is cast down from heaven and collaborates with the beast coming up from the abyss to damage human beings. Positively, the promise to the church in Philadelphia to be kept out of “the hour of trial” (Rev. 3:10) is fellowshipped.
