“shofar”, translated as “trumpet”, is used eleven<br />
times from chapter 8, verse 2, through chapter 9<br />
and chapter 10, verse 7, to chapter 11, verse 15. The<br />
last three trumpets are announced in Rev. 8:13 and<br />
are called “voices”, like in Rev. 10:7, “Woe, woe, woe,<br />
to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other<br />
voices of the trumpet of the three angels which are<br />

Question 13: Do you believe in the ministry of an eighth messenger?<br />
Answer: No, I certainly do not believe any man who claims<br />

stars, the seven angels to the seven churches, and<br />
they were in the right hand of the Lord. Any eighth<br />
messenger can therefore only be in the left hand<br />
or left pocket of someone else, because there is no<br />
promise for him in the Holy Scripture. There is furthermore<br />

Elisha or of any other prophet. All true servants of<br />
<strong>God</strong> at this time stand on the same foundation and<br />
they proclaim the true Word — the message of the<br />
hour, which foreruns the second coming of Christ.<br />
Question 14: Do you believe in the “parousia/coming” teaching?<br />
Answer: To this question I always give the same answer:<br />
When the Lord comes I will ascend to Glory together<br />
with all the saints. Each coming of the Lord<br />
is a reality, it is in person, a bodily presence. The<br />
term “par ou sia” in itself means coming in bodily<br />
presence. As long as the Bride Church is on earth,<br />
the Bridegroom has not yet come. When the Lord<br />
