One reason why you're just not going to understand what I am saying is because you tend to think of the judgements of God as literal interpretations,
hail and fire, meteors etc. as stated in your battered planet thread.
Whereas I see hail as symbolic of a 'hard spirit' and fire as persecution.
When the hard spirited Romans killed everyone who wouldn't bow to Papal Rome, I saw this as hail and fire, one of the plagues.
While God is always in control in the background and overall, his words can only be carried out through people. When the Romans thought they were
doing God a service by killing his people, they actually became a plague and this judgement was 'written down' by them.
So when the angel says to seal up the thunders and do not write them down, I take that to mean to not become the judgement itself like the Romans.
As we live, it is written.
....and the books were opened: and another book was opened...the things that were written
So when the angel says to seal up what the thunders said and do not write them down, this is signifying the position that God's true church should
have. They should have no part in being one of God's judgements, they are not to 'write it down', in other words live it.
But in the three and a half years of their prophesying, they are to be the means in which God's voice is heard, the thunder as you say.
