Revelation 10:3,4

Seven thunders uttered their voices Revelation 10:3-4: The mighty angle "cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices." (Revelation 10:3) This cry was loud because it was designed to attract attention to the message of God. When God speaks men do well to take heed! When the loin roars the other beast of the jungle tremble. When the Almighty God speaks the occupants of sea and land should hear His voice and heed His message. Sadly many will not hear nor repent. Remember the words of Revelation 9:20-21. "And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts."

John said, "when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not." The seven thunders indicate that a storm is coming. This was another warning from God concerning the wicked. John had been commanded to write what he saw. (Revelation 1:11) Now he is told not to write what the seven thunders uttered. Judgment had been announced, God's warnings had been given and now there would be no delay.
