The following is by Dr. Steven Anderson and those who love the Word of God and especially eschatology this is worth reading.

“The book of Revelation describes three series of seven judgments that will occur during the seven-year tribulation period—the seven seals, the seven trumpets, and the seven bowls. The seven trumpets begin about two years into the tribulation period. Jesus prophesied in Luke 21:11 that during the first half of the tribulation period “there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.” The first four trumpet judgments (Rev 8:7-12) are connected with the arrival of a great mass of cosmic debris, apparently a massive asteroid cluster (possibly a large comet). The sounding of the first trumpet is followed by a great storm of small and medium-size meteors which ignite fires all over the earth (Rev 8:7). This storm is followed soon after (when the second trumpet sounds) by the impact of a very large asteroid in the Pacific Ocean, which punctures the earth’s crust and causes a massive upwelling of blood-red magma (Rev 8:8-9). The sounding of the third trumpet heralds the arrival of another very large asteroid, which is composed not of rock but of a toxic substance that melts and burns in the earth’s atmosphere and scatters toxins over a region that contains the headwaters of many of the world’s great rivers—likely the great mountain ranges of Central Asia and the Himalayas (Rev 8:10-11). The fourth trumpet judgment describes a darkening of the sun, moon, and stars for a third of each day and night, which is apparently caused by the earth passing through a thick stream of cosmic dust which follows the asteroid swarm (Rev 8:12). These physical “falling stars” are followed in the fifth trumpet judgment by a “fallen star” representing a spiritual being, Satan, who unleashes a storm of fallen angels onto the earth (Rev 9:1-11). When the sixth trumpet sounds, four more fallen angels are unchained and provoke world leaders into launching an extremely destructive invasion (Rev 9:13-21). For a detailed explanation of the first four trumpet judgments, see my commentary on Revelation 8.
