AR 419,421,424,425 - The Fifth Angel Sounded (part 1)

AR 419
Then the fifth angel sounded.
(Revelation 9:1)

AR 421
A key symbolizes the power to open, and also to close.
And a bottomless pit symbolizes hell,
where those people reside
who have affirmed in themselves 
justification and salvation by faith alone . . ..

. . . the affirmation of falsity constitutes a denial of truth.

AR 424 [2]
Because falsities of the lowest sort devour
the growing truths and goods of the church in a person,
they are symbolized by locusts
which devour the grasses in fields
and the vegetation on farms . . ..

AR 425
A scorpion symbolizes a deadly persuasiveness,
and a scorpion of the earth a deadly persuasiveness
in matters having to do with the church,
as the earth symbolizes the church.
