Seven Thunder Revelation (What The Voice Of The Thunder Said in Revelation 10:1-4)

Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars. 2 He was holding a little scroll, which lay open in his hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, 3 and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders spoke. 4 And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down.” (Revelation 10: 1-4)

The seven thunders represent the seven mysteries of the end time. Apostle John was about to write what the seven thunders said, but he was told not to. Being curious to know what these seven thunders said, I tried to get an insight on what it is. 

Believe me, the bible is a book full of mysteries. Mysteries are hidden things or  revelations to be uncovered. The sound of thunders are symbolic for God's wrath or anger as describes in Psalm 29.

Thunders are also is a symbol of war between two opposing forces or spirits. It's like a reaction between two opposing forces or spirit. 

Digging Deep Into What The Seven(7) Thunder Said?

Though it was sealed by Apostle John, yet it was unveiled by Christ. Christ unveiled the mysteries of what the seven thunder said earlier in the book Revelation chapter 6 from verse 1.  John's  seven seals were loosed from the scroll by Christ. The scroll contains the mysteries of the end times. 

While the lamb (Jesus) was loosing the seals, each of the four living creatures spoke with a voice like thunder.  You see, the seals were broken by Christ, and the four living creatures spoke with voices like thunder. John had no power to loose the seals he used in sealing the scroll. 

The events in the book of Revelation doesn't seems to be arranged timely. For chapter 10 preceeded chapter 6. Chapter 10 showed us when it as sealed, while chapter 6 showed us when the seals were loosed and the scroll opened by the lamb. 

What the seven thunder said reflects what was revealed when Christ loosed the seven seals from the scroll or book. The living creature reflects the thunder.  

I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2 I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.

3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other. To him was given a large sword.

5 When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. 6 Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds[a] of wheat for a day’s wages,[b] and six pounds[c] of barley for a day’s wages,[d] and do not damage the oil and the wine!”

7 When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” 8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. 10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?” 11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters, were killed just as they had been. (Revelaton 6:1-11)
