Yesterday marked the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear accident.

Well, that's the third trumpet in Revelation chapter 8.

But some contend the third trumpet occurs during the Great Tribulation after the rapture.

Well, we'll address the confusion and clear it all up on today's end time show.

Good afternoon, everyone. I'm Dave Robbins with End Time Ministries. Thank you so much for joining me on this edition of The End Time Show. And you know, that's right. April 26th marked the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl Nuclear Accident back the year I graduated high school all the way back in 1986, 40 years ago. But of course, the one I want to talk to you about

so the connection comes from the fact that Chernobyl is the Ukrainian word for a local variety of the bitter herb called wormwood. Many people missed the marking this anniversary because they believe the book of revelation is written in

a strict chronological order so the vast majority of prophecy teachers teach a pre-tribulation

rapture view so they they say the church is caught up in revelation 4-1 when john says john

come up hither and the church not, they say the church is not

mentioned again until Revelation 19. So because of this, they claim that the seals, trumpets,

and vials all happen during that final seven-year period, or they call it a great, a seven-year tribulation period, which they say
