Revelation is a book of trumpets and battles led by an anointed leader that results in the collapse of the walls of an idolatrous city and the taking of a promised kingdom by God’s people after 40 years of wondering in rejection. Sound familiar? It should. There was quite the foreshadowing in the Old Testament with Joshua and Jericho. 40 years after the Messiah was crucified and took our sin for us, He would return in judgment just as He said, just when He said. Seven trumpets would sound and the walls of an idolatrous city would fall – just as predicted by all the Old Testament prophets – ushering in the fullness of the everlasting kingdom cut by no human hand … more powerful than every great empire that ever existed. Jesus is the cornerstone, the apostles are its foundation, the Lamb is its light, and Christ is its reigning King.
