What uses symbols to encourage Christians to hope for the triumph of God in the end of the world?

Answer 1

You are confused, the trump which you speak of is the 7th and it does not end the world, it proclaims the coming of the true Christ

You are somehow misunderstanding

1st Corinthians 15

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the Trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed

You will find the sounding of the 7th trumpet written in Revelation 11:15.

You will find the day of the blowing of trumpets written in Leviticus 23:24 (1st day of the 7th month - and no that is not July 1st), your big hit is the word Septem which means 7 (the last months of the Gregorian calendar year are Latin numbers Septem, Octo, Novem, Decem or 7,8,9,10 ). Our Fathers calendar actually runs from Spring Equinox to Spring Equinox (March 20-21), it never starts in January.

Paul is discussing the appearance of Christ at the 7th trumpet and how all flesh ends at that very moment in time, however from Revelation 20 you learn that Christ and the Elect will teach for 1000 years, therefore the 7th trumpet is not the end of the earth, its the end of flesh mankind.

in 2nd Peter ch3 you will learn there are 3 earth iterations, we are currently in the second, and there will be a permanent 3rd earth iteration. Therefore the earth is not destroyed and neither shall it be, the flesh and its cosmos is all that is destroyed at the 7th trumpet.

In that same 1 Corinthians 15, Paul will instruct you on the two bodies ones soul can reside within. Once flesh is destroyed, all souls reside in their heavenly bodies.
