These flying creature wings are noisy.Like the drone swarm in the video.
What video?
9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
There were no flying creatures in the verses I referred to, and quoted. Just lion-headed, snake-tailes fire-breathing horses. 200,000,000 of them.

That is because what Luke wrote was said in the Temple to many Jews listening.

"And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said, As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass? And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.... And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives."

Jesus taught in the Temple as well as on the Mount of Olives.

Luke's account was slightly different, because Jesus was addressing the crowd at the Temple, and teaching them as well as in private with His disciples.

Perhaps you take stock in human theology too much, and have forgotten the actual Word of God?
His disciples did not ask him till he sat down on the Mt of olives.

There are two accounts of this.
Perhaps you hate the truth so you preach against it


Mathew
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?


Mark
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,



Luke simply omitted a few words"as he sat of the Mt of olives"

The video of the drone swarms.


So you believe locusts with wings can't fly,?
Normally locusts with wings can fly.What makes you think these locusts can't fly?


Revelation 9
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.

6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.

8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.

9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.

11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

Sounds like you don't read revelation.
I totally do, but I read it as an application text, instead of a "read it and sound like I know something the bible says I can't" text

Well,the bible doesn't say no one can understand it.

Really, the only thing Jesus told the disciples that no one knows is the day and hour of his return.

The bible does not say you can't know anything else.

The bible does say only the Father knows and people continue to declare this, that, and the other thing that is for the Father to know.

So using the bible to determine something that is Father God's exclusive knowledge? That's called divination.

No one is saying Jesus is coming back on a certain day or hour for only the father knows.

Now you say only the father can know what an earthquake in the bible is

Give us the Quote from the scripture that the father only knows what an earthquake is

Strawman. When did I use the word earthquake?

A good example of something that is commonly prophesied is about the return of Israel as a nation under God.

However, according to Jesus' words in acts, this is something only the Father knows.

There is no strawman in revelation.
There is an earthquake and according to you , no one can know what an earthquake is because it's in revelation and only the father can know what it is.

Your sentences are self contradictory.

Your the one who says only the father can know anything.
You believe all of his children are idiots.
If you read my posts this way, I'm skeptical that anything you read from the bible is credible either.

Squirrelly Squirrely I say unto thee, if they read from the book of Revelation, believe them not.
If they read from the book of revelation ,believe them not?

Your saying to believe no one who reads the book of revelation.That would include about every Christian that ever lived.
