And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
(Revelation 9:3-12) KJV
Something that doesn’t get discussed very often is this terrifying description of horse-sized armor-plated locusts with scorpion tails that are going to emerge from within the earth when the impact of Wormwood splits the crust open.
I know that there are interpretations out there that the locusts are the description that a Bronze Age prophet imagined for the black helicopters of the United Nations. This is as weak and feeble an interpretation as you can possibly get. It comes from the same folks who claim that the description of all humanity being able to see the glory of God during the Millennial Kingdom is a prophecy of satellite TV.
I think it’s much more likely that we are really talking about horse-sized armor-plated locusts with scorpion tails. The point that I want to make about this is that these creatures exist. Now. They are a population of some kind of biological entity that has been in existence for millennia. They are down in the bowels of the earth right now. Waiting. Probably very hot and angry, and really ready to get out onto the surface of the earth. The identity of these creatures is unknown. It is pure speculation to attempt to come up with the origin of these beasts, the only clue that we have is the binding of the rebellious angels in the center of the earth. They are referred to by Jude:
And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;
(Jude 1:6) NKJV
Back to our developing image of the process of the construction of the Millennial Kingdom and, I believe, there is more to be said about the impact of the star Wormwood. If, as I suggest, the identity of this star is the planet Mercury, then the effect of this impact is what triggers the magma plumes which raise up the portion of the earths surface which will be the Millennial Kingdom.
- We previously calculated the mass of Mercury to be 3.24E+12 Kg.
- If it’s density is comparable to the earth’s then its volume is 5.89E+05m³.
- This is sufficient for a sphere with a radius of about 104 Km.
If Mercury were to strike the earth on the opposite side to the location of Jerusalem, and cause sizeable sections of crust and mantle to fall into the core (hell) then this would force the ejection of the magma plumes which will raise up Jerusalem and the Millennial Kingdom. There is also the remnants of the pillars of the earth which are going to fall into the core, increasing the amount of volume that is added to it.
