If the Mystery of God Is Finished in the Days of the Voice of the Seventh Angel, Where and When Do the Seven Thunders Utter Their Voices?
1) Direct Answer
They utter on earth, under the descent of the Mighty Angel in Revelation 10, and they do it in the days of the voice of the seventh angel—an end-time period just before the seventh trumpet. Their words are not written in Scripture but are revealed to the Bride to finish the mystery of God.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- Revelation 10:1-4 shows a Mighty Angel coming down, one foot on sea and one on land—an earthly scene. He cries as a lion roars, and “seven thunders uttered their voices.” John heard them, but was told, “Seal up those things… and write them not.” So the content was hidden in Scripture.
- Revelation 10:7 says, “in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished.” That links the finishing of the mystery with an end-time “voice” period, not a single moment.
- Revelation 10:8-11 commands the prophet to take the open book and eat it, then “prophesy again.” The little book is open, not closed—meaning what was sealed is now made known and spoken forth.
- This unfolds to the Bride (Revelation 7:9-17; 20:4), preparing her faith and testimony before the seventh trumpet turns fully to Israel.
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- If John was forbidden to write what the thunders said, then the Bible would not add new text for them. Yet God promised the mystery would be finished in the days of the seventh angel’s voice. Therefore, the thunders must be made known by revelation in that end-time voice, not by adding Scripture.
- The scene is on earth (feet on sea and land), so the thunders are uttered on earth, to be caught by the Bride during that “days of the voice” season.
- They are connected to the open book, so their purpose is to unveil what was hidden under the Seals, give the Bride rapturing faith, and complete God’s revealed mystery before the seventh trumpet sounds.
4) Short Reinforcing Statement
Now notice: the seven thunders are not future, unknowable noise; they are the hidden voices tied to the open book, sounded on earth in the days of the seventh angel’s voice to finish the mystery and ready the Bride.

The Evening Messenger
63-0116 §34
Each age has had its message and messenger. God has seen to that. Even in the church ages, we find out that each one had a messenger, and each one lived their age; and another one come in, and that one went out; and another one come in; on down to the seventh church age; each star, each angel of the church, each messenger. And we find out, at the last church age, over in Revelation 10, there is to be a trumpet sound, and there was seven voices uttered at... They was not permitted to write. But it was sealed on the...

I want you to watch this carefully now and see something really sweet and beautiful. I said this is His end-time revelation of Himself. When the day of grace closes, then the millennium comes very shortly thereafter, doesn't it? Well, read with me Isaiah 65:16-19. "That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes. For behold, I create...
Seals 10: The Seventh Seal
63-0324E §84
Seven---God's perfect number. Seven just right down the row. Seven thunders uttered straight together like they're spelling out something. Notice, at that time, John started to write, and he said, "Don't write it." Jesus never spoke of it. John couldn't write it. Angels know nothing about it. What is it? It's the thing that Jesus said even the angels of heaven didn't know nothing about it, see. He didn't know it Himself. He said only God would know it. But He told us when we begin to see these signs coming up... (N...
The Feast of the Trumpets
64-0719M §100
Pentecost feast finishes at the period of the seventh trumpet, for the next is the coming of the---or seventh seal, for the next is the mystery of the coming of Christ, and also the trumpet is sound for the Jews. Their sixth trumpet is sounded, and when it does, it makes known to them the revealed Son of God. One-half hour is fixed. Remember, all trumpets sound on this sixth seal. The sixth seal finishes the mystery---under the sixth seal just before the seventh's opened.
