Is the first trumpet judgment the same as one of the plagues of Egypt?
Yes, the first trumpet judgment is the same as one of the plagues of Egypt. The first angel's sounding brings hail and fire mingled with blood cast upon the earth, burning a third of the trees and all green grass. This matches the Exodus plague of fire running along the ground and hail.
Les teaches that the first trumpet judgment corresponds directly to an Egyptian plague. Looking back to Exodus, he asks what one of the plagues was and answers, 'This very same thing'—fire running along the ground and hail. The first angel sounds, and hail and fire mingled with blood are cast upon the earth, burning up a third of the trees and all the green grass. Les adds that such events will bring death and destruction and also psychological warfare, happening one after another beyond comprehension.
