The bible contains amazing prophecies about the history of the mankind. By looking at the prophecies and the fulfillments, we can realize that the human history is none other than God’s plan and the achievement.
This prophecy of the Seal of God also has been accomplished through the human history. Now let us study the meaning of the prophecy one by one. As the first part of the prophecy, I would like to discuss about the time and place of the seal of God.
“After This”
Even though this phrase “After this” is so simple, it contains deep secrets for our salvation. Through this phrase God is teaching us about the time frame when God begins his work of salvation in the last day. Let us look at the prophecy first.
Revelation 7:1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: 3 “Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.”
Now let us understand the meanings of this prophecy one by one. In this prophecy we can see the four angels standing at the four corners of the earth holding back the four winds lest they should blow on the land, the sea, or any tree.

What is the meaning of the four angels holding back the four winds? Are the winds literally four storms that would blow from all around the earth destroying everything on the surface of the earth like in a disaster movie?
Four Winds From the Four Corners of the Earth
Then what are the four winds that the four angels are holding to prevent it from blowing on the land. As we have seen over and over again, everything in the bible is a parable and thus has a figurative meaning behind it. Then what is the parabolic meaning of “wind” in the bible?
Jeremiah 4:11 At that time this people and Jerusalem will be told, “A scorching wind from the barren heights in the desert blows toward my people, but not to winnow or cleanse; 12 a wind too strong for that comes from me. …. ‘A besieging army is coming from a distant land, raising a war cry against the cities of Judah…… For I have heard the sound of the trumpet; I have heard the battle cry.
According to this prophecy, the wind figuratively represents “a war”. Then what is the meaning of “four”? Four winds from the four corners of the earth means a war coming from all the directions from east, west, south, and north. This is not a war that affects a city or a country. It is a war that takes places and affects all around the earth, in other words, “the world war”.
Four Angels Holding Back the Winds
According to the prophecy above, the four winds from the four corners earth, that is, a world war is held back by the four angels. This is means a world war was stopped by force by the four angels sent by God. In the human history, there were two world wars up until now. The first was the World War I from July 1914 to November 1918. And the second one was World War 2 from September 1939 to September 1945.
Then which of these is the war in the prophecy above? In the beginning of the prophecy, it is written that all these would take place “after this”. It means to know the exact time frame of the prophecy in Chapter 7 we have to look at what happened in the previous chapter. Immediately after what happened in Chapter 6, the prophecy in Chapter 7 is taking place. Then what is happening in Chapter 6?
Stars and Figs Fallen by Strong Winds
The Meaning of Stars
Revelation 6:12 I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, 13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind.
Here we can see another series of images that contains hidden meanings behind them. Among many images let us find out the meaning of the star and figs that fell down, shaken by a strong wind. What is the meaning of the figs and stars? Figuratively, both figs and stars represent the people of Israel or the Jews, God’s chosen people.
According to the bible, the descendants of Abraham, that is, Jews are compared to stars in heaven.
Genesis 15:4 He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.
In this scene God took Abraham outside and teaches him that his offspring or the descendants would be numerous like stars. God confirms again in Chapter 22 in Genesis.
Genesis 22:17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore.
Through these verses in the bible, we can know the stars in the sky figuratively means the people of Israel, the Jews.
The Meaning of the Figs
The Parable of Two Baskets of Figs
Then what about the figs? What is the meaning of figs in the bible? To make a long story short, the figs also represent the Jews. In Jeremiah the Jews either in exile or in Judah are figuratively compared to figs.
Jeremiah 24:4 Then the word of the Lord came to me: 5 “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Like these good figs, I regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I sent away from this place to the land of the Babylonians. ….. 8 “‘But like the bad figs, which are so bad they cannot be eaten,’ says the Lord, ‘so will I deal with Zedekiah king of Judah, his officials and the survivors from Jerusalem, whether they remain in this land or live in Egypt.
Here God teaches the meanings of two baskets of figs shown in the previous verse. The figs either good or bad signifies the Jews who were in Babylon living as exiles and those who were living Jerusalem as survivors. We can confirm this through the teachings of Jesus too. Jesus compares his ministry to the work of a farmer who are taking care of the fig tree.
The Parable of a Fruitless Fig Tree
Luke 13:6 Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. 7 So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’
In this parable, the fig tree represents the nation of Israel and the fruits represent the Jews who repented. Jesus came to this earth and preached the repentance to the Jews. However, they did not bear fruit, which means they did not repent. So Jesus cursed the fig tree and pronounced the judgment to the unrepentant Jews.
The Stars and Figs Fallen by a Strong Wind’
Then what is the meaning of the stars and figs fallen down to the earth shaken by a strong wind? Since the stars and figs signify the Jews and wind a war, the meaning is quite obvious. It means the death of the Jews by a big war. Since the time of this prophecy, then what was the war that caused a lot of Jewish casualties? It is the second world war or the World War II. It is said that about 6 million Jews got killed in the Holocaust during World War II.
Through this historical event, we can see the fulfillment of the prophecies of the bible. According to the prophecy in Revelation 7, the work of God putting the seal on his people begins right after World War II. World War II ended in 1945 and it has passed about 70 years since the war. Therefore, we can conclude that the last salvation work of God has already started.
From the Rising of the Sun
Then where does the work of God’s putting seal on the chosen people start?
Revelation 7:2 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea. (NIV)7:2
Revelation 7:2 and I saw another messenger going up from the rising of the sun (YLT)
While the four angels are holding back World War II, another angel is coming from the east, bringing the seal of God. The writer of this book, Apostle John was living in the Island of Patmos as exile when he received this vision from the Christ. Therefore, “from the east,” or “from the rising of the sun” originally in Greek means God would start the last work of putting the seal somewhere in the east from the Patmos Island.

Conclusion
Through this article, we have seen the time and the place for the seal of God. According to this prophecy, we can conclude that God must have started his salvation work by putting the seal on his chosen people, starting from somewhere in the east. In the next article, I would like to talk more about what the seal of God is and how we can receive the seal of God
Let us receive the seal of God before the terrible wind blows.
Who in the world can keep God’s prophecies from being fulfilled in their own times?
The Bible wrote all prophecies for the salvation of our souls.
Whoever receives God’s seal will be pretected from the last disasters!
People, who want to receive the salvation from disasters, must know the prophecy about the seal of God
The only way to escape the last disaster is to receive the passover which is the seal of God. Only Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us to keep the passover.
Who can tell us the prophecy of the bible? The mystery about future? Who know the seal for salvation? Only God.
He is true God.
There a time and purpose in our lifetime. God also has a time to put a seal to ppl of God from the east.To escape disasters, we must be put a seal of God
Oops! Has it already started??

i understand that i should receive the seal of God before the terrible wind blows.
so what is the seal of God? and how do i get seal of God?
Only who can teach the Bible like this?
The writer of the Bible is our God. Only God can teach the Bible correctly.
And Christ Ahnsahnghong who is our God taught us everything.
I truly believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong as our savior in this last age.
And in order to escape from the last disaster, we need to put the seal of God!!
All the words of God will fulfill correctly so let’s get the seal of God before the DAY.
The seal of God is only Passover the new covenant.
Unless we keep the Passover ,we can not go to Kingdom of Heaven and avoid distruction in this age.
We should know where and when God begins his work of salvation in the last day. Then we can be protected the last disaster, war. Thanks to the Elohim god to let us know the way.
People will see the genuine power of the Passover of the New Covenant at the very last moment. What a powerful prophecy and How blessed we are!
Interesting! I understand that we need to be put the Seal of God in order to be protected from the last plagues. What is the Seal of God then? I expect the next post about this matter.
We should receive the Seal of God to get salvation before it’s too late.
Very incredible prophecies. But I am very curious about “Somewhere”. I heard it is Korea, right? Do I come to know it exactly from the next article?
I read the link “from the east” now and understood. Thanks a lot for showing these important truth.
God’s seal is very needed for all mankinds who will face on the last disaster. I hope all people recieve the seal of God,
the Seal of God is the sign of salvation.I wanna recieve seal of God and be a chosen ppl.
God is indeed gracious!
God has come to save mankind and sacrificed death on the cross, but he prophesies again to come again.
He tells the time and place of his coming in the Bible well, and with what he will save mankind.
I am grateful for God’s mercy and salvation.
I think the bible is so mysterious and it is hard to get it. But this makes me interested in the bible.
I hope that all people receive the seal of God that is only solution to escape the last terrible disaster.
Let’s preach diligently the Seal of God for all people to be saved.
Wow, I want to know more what the seal of God represent.
Hi Sweetie, God bless you!
The seal of God is the Passover of the new covenant 🙂
I think the truth of the Bible is very deep and profound. We can understand the meaning of “After This”, “Four Winds from the four corners of the earth” and “seal of God” in Revelation only through the Bible. For our salvation, we should know what the seal of God is in detail. After World War II, God’s work of putting the seal starts in the east from Patmos Island. I will study the Bible more diligently to get the seal of God. Thanks to God the Father and God the Mother.
Before the disasters come upon us, must be sealed from God. Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother have been sealing, the Passover, the seal of God to their own people by preaching the New Covenant
The place is WMSOCG for the seal of God.
God came to the earth and opened the seal of God.
The new Covenant is God’s seals and only WMSCOG keeps it.
Without the new covenant, we have no salvation.
We have to keep it and can enter heaven.
God’s prophecy is fulfilled on its time God has appointed. The seal of God is to appear together with appearing of Second coming Christ just after the world war 2 and as prophesied it has been putting on the foreheads of the chosen. Christ Ahnsahnghong who has brought the seal of God is our Savior, our everlasting God.
The work of putting the seal of God starts from the independence of Israel. The place is somewhere in the east from the Patmos Island where the book of Revelation was written.
God Himself came to this earth for this again. He is Christ Ahnsahnghong who brought the seal of God, the Passover. He preached it from the time, at the place. How amazing the fulfillment is!!
The seal of God is the New Covenant Passover.
In order to receive the seal of God, we must know the time and place.
In order to know that, we need to look into the Bible.
Through the parable of the fig tree, it is said that the Second Coming Jesus would come with the seal of God in 1948.
And it is prophesied that he would come to Korea, the end of the east.
The Bible clearly testifies about the time when God comes to the earth and the place where God comes to the earth!! If you study the Bible correctly, you can realize who is the Second Coming Christ who brings us the seal of God!!
It is so clear that God in the flesh comes before the world war 3 for our salvation. God comes on the place where the work of salvation starts. The seal of God is put on God’s people from the east. The place is South Korea. It’s because the Passover, the seal of God is put first after Jesus’ ascension. He is God Ahnsahnghong.
I am truly grateful that I can realize and believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong, the Second Coming Christ, who has come a second time to the East, Korea, where the sunrise is rising in this last age of the Holy Spirit according to all the prophecies of the Bible.
I give eternal thanks and praise to Heavenly Father Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for coming to this painful land twice for our salvation and restoring the truth of the Passover of the New Covenant.
