By “God”, do you mean the Second Person of the Trinity in His human Incarnation, - Jesus Christ?
Or, by “God”, do you mean the Trinity (One God, three Persons)?

The sarcasm is entirely inappropriate. postwriter asked a question and was hoping for an answer, not ridicule.

Gary, try as I might I cannot find that postwriter, the original poster, asked ANY question at all.
Rather, he or she announced that something happened (but gave no specifics) on February 7 which supposedly indicate we are at a specific point in a Biblical ‘prophecy’, then posted this.

No questions, just statements. Until he or she further clarifies, we have no idea whether he or she is asking a question or making any kind of statement that is up for discussion purposes.

Unless you’re willing to answer some of the questions being asked of your claims, you’re nothing but a baiter - an antagonist.
This is a growing epidemic on this board.

Whether it was a question, comment or whatever is irrelevant. It is possible to ask for a clarification without getting sarcastic.

Actually, my interpretation (given to me by the Holy Spirit) is that we are in chapter 9, not 11.

I think there was a question for clarification on the very first response. It went unanswered.
The only answers so far have been rather cryptic.

My brother, I hate to have to correct you on this, but the Holy Spirit isn’t a gift, he’s the 3rd person of the blessed trinity. I think what you mean is you are under the guidance of the Holy Spirit who enables you to interpret scripture infallibly, and that you have the gift of prophesy.
In prayer,

No, we are in chapter 9. This isn’t bankruptcy!
In that case, I will now separate from your church and form my own church, which I will call the Brotherhood of Chapter Seven Trumpets Fellowship, and spend the next 150 years saying bad things about the heretic Chapter 9 adherents.
The Holy Spirit told me so.

What does this mean to you in relation to this topic? (I ask because you seem to be claiming to be infallible by saying that you have the gift of the Holy Spirit.) What then of people with a different point of view on the book of Revelations? Are they heretics? Are they going to Hell? How can you prove that you are correct and those who differ are wrong?

OP did not ask a question, OP posted a statement which taken by itself is nonsensical, for which he has offered, in support, a series of bible verses w/o context or explanation, and made a dogmatic interpretation of a sliver of the book of Revelation, by authority he claims has come directly to him from the HOly Spirit. He has been politely asked, here on on other threads, to offer more, to explain his claims, and to ask a question that can be sensibly discussed, but has yet declined to do so. He also has yet to enlighten the rest of us on the events upon which he based his statement.

I’ll bet you actually think you have something to tell us, postwriter.

I think it has been explained to him. He chooses not to listen.

My point is quite simple, it doesn’t matter what he did, treating him poorly was wrong. “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” (Rom 12:21)

The OP referenced the events of 2/7, but never mentioned the year. Here are some events of Feb. 7 Past. Speculate to you heart’s content
Today is Thursday, Feb. 7, the 38th day of 2008. There are 328 days left in the year. This is the Lunar New Year of the Rat.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Feb. 7, 1964, The Beatles began their first American tour as they arrived at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
On this date:
In 1812, author Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth, England.
In 1857, a French court acquitted author Gustave Flaubert of obscenity for his serialized novel “Madame Bovary.”
In 1861, the general council of the Choctaw Indian nation adopted a resolution declaring allegiance with the South “in the event a permanent dissolution of the American Union takes place.”
In 1904, a fire began in Baltimore that raged for about 30 hours and destroyed more than 1,500 buildings.
In 1936, President Franklin Roosevelt authorized a flag for the office of the vice president.
In 1943, the government announced the start of shoe rationing, limiting consumers to buying three pairs per person for the remainder of the year.
In 1948, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower resigned as Army chief of staff; he was succeeded by General Omar Bradley.
In 1974, the island nation of Grenada won independence from Britain.
In 1983, Elizabeth H. Dole was sworn in as the first female secretary of transportation by the first woman to sit on the Supreme Court, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor.
In 1984, space shuttle astronauts Bruce McCandless II and Robert L. Stewart went on the first untethered space walk.
Ten years ago: The Winter Olympic Games opened in Nagano, Japan. It was announced that Carl Wilson, a founding member of The Beach Boys, had died in Los Angeles from complications of lung cancer; he was 51.
Five years ago: The government raised its terror threat level to “high risk” orange, warning of a growing possibility that the al-Qaida network would launch an attack against the United States to coincide with Muslim holy days. President Bush courted the leaders of France and China in an uphill struggle to win U.N. backing for war with Iraq. Tom Christerson, the longest-living recipient of a fully self-contained artificial heart, died at Jewish Hospital in Louisville, Ky., after 512 days on the AbioCor; he was 71. Colombian guerillas bombed the exclusive El Nogal social club in Bogota, killing 36 people and injuring 160 others.
One year ago: U.S. officials confirmed a new security operation was under way in Baghdad; U.S. armor rushed through streets, and Iraqi armored personnel carriers guarded bridges and major intersections. A Marine CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter was shot down by insurgents in Anbar, killing all seven people on board. In a first, the Food and Drug Administration approved alli, a diet pill that can be bought without a prescription.
