Star that's a somebody

Revelation 6: [12] And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

There’s tremendous storm activity; cosmic activity that goes around and is placed there and the people of the earth, when they see the sun during the day it’s dark and when the moon comes out at night it’s blood red.

[13] And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

When a fig tree drops its figs before they’re ripe they’re hard as a rock and when a storm comes and makes them fall, it has an impact, and that’s what that’s talking about.

What would the stars be there? You say, “Well that can’t be a literal star falling because if it was, it would burn everything up; it would never get to the earth. So it’s got to be a figure of speech.” But what would it be?

Revelation 9 begins, [1] And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.
[2] And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
[3] 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.

Now wait a minute. To who? To him. Well, the star must not be that gas ball we think about; it must be somebody. Well, who’s the star then? Verse 2 says, “And he opened the bottomless pit,” so the star, in this case, is somebody.

Revelation 1:20: [20] The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

We know a star represented an angel. You see, angels are associated in your Bible with stars from the very beginning of their appearance.

Job 37 and 38. It is necessary for an angel to have light in order to operate. If you put an angel in pitch black darkness he can’t function. That’s why in the Book of Jude, those angels who sinned in Noah’s day are held in chains of darkness.

The darkness immobilizes them and they need light and light sources to function. And so they are associated with stars and stay around the light sources and the stars and so forth.

So when he sees this star fall from heaven in chapter 6, evidently it has something to do with chapter 9.

Revelation 6: [14] And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
[15] And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
[16] And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

What does it mean when it says the heaven is parted as a scroll?

Job 26: [5] Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
[6] Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
[7] He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
