[Alexandr Korol]

Maybe, after the first and second volumes, when I was writing the third volume,
that chief Spirit meant that I must come to know three worlds and three gods,
and not what I was coming to know then. Well, it’s clear that it’s one and the
same, but it turns out that back then I came to know the four animals — that is,
the four horses, the four horsemen, as the four elements, and so on. And it’s true,
these are four worlds, but maybe for this reason it’s precisely three worlds that
are depicted on the globus cruciger: because these three worlds, besides those
four, are the next three, and that’s why there are seven, you understand? That is,
it’s as if God is precisely the one who governs these three spirits: heaven, earth,
the underground kingdom. Or let’s call it differently: not heaven, earth, and the
underground kingdom, but the sun, the moon, and the star — and He governs
them. Whereas these three worlds — further on, they already have that division
there, as I said: in the world of the sun there are worlds, in the world of the
moon there are worlds. This is what it all leads up to. This is what the Trinity is.
Everything comes together completely. Even very, very much all comes together.
And here about the seven seals it’s also curious: what will be at the moment of
the seventh seal and after it — it all comes together too.

What the Bible says about who opens the seals
In Revelation, only the Lamb (Jesus Christ, slain and risen) is worthy to open the seals
of the book in the hand of God (Revelation 5:6–9). This is His exclusive right. No one
else — not an angel, not a man, not even the most righteous prophet — can do this.
When the seventh seal is opened (Revelation 8:1), there is silence in heaven for about
half an hour. This is not merely a pause. This is the moment when the heavens grow
still before the next judgments (the seven trumpets).

What comes next in the text (if one follows Revelation literally)
After the silence:

1. The angels receive seven trumpets — new, louder judgments begin.
2. The prayers of the saints ascend, and fire is cast upon the earth.
3. The trumpet judgments follow (hail, fire, poisoned waters, the darkening of the
heavenly bodies, and so on).
4. Then — the seven bowls of wrath.
