       Now, the second trumpet: “The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood. A third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed” (Revelation 8:8, 9, ESV). We have all seen movies where giant comets, meteors, or astroids hit the earth, or are heading toward the earth, like ‘Deep Impact’ and ‘Armageddon.’ Nonetheless, in real life something like a meteor or astroid actually is going to hit the earth. Obviously, there have been meteors or asteroids that have hit the earth in the past. It’s been some 10 years ago now, but I recall going to a meteorite site out in Arizona, east of Flagstaff, where there was a large impact on the earth. It was an awesome site. If you drive off the freeway there a ways, off Interstate 40, you can drive up to the crater, walk right up to it, and look down into it. It is a massive sight to see. My understanding was, if I recall correctly, was that the original impact of the meteor, when it hit the earth, had the explosive power of many atomic bombs.
