The spiritually dead are the VICTIMS of the locusts from the smoke at the time of Revelation 9:3:
Revelation 9:4 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.
Today, the spiritually dead are much like bugs attracted to the light. They can't help themselves to seek out believers in Christ. They don't know why and it frustrates them, so they lash out in anger and derision.
Most of the time non-believers outnumber or at least equal believers in a question by believers

since revelation was given in symbols u need history to attest to what this meant ! too bad though many wont be satisfied to look but assume it means just what it says actual locusts,,
the whole book of revelation is aprophetic book of symbols and images some are revealed meaning it tells us in the next verses just what that specific symbol meant .
in the book of revelation if it could of been understood by its oppressors it would of been tossed out or destroyed -GOD -knew what he was doing- when . yeah i he put this book in symbols just like the parables of the bible u have to search and understand the answers its not for those who are worldly in knowledge and wisdom for this book then is just foolishness
Revelation 1
Introduction and Benediction
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.
ok here their are 3 blessings found inthis book in order to get them u have to do 3 ,,, things read hear and obey the writings found in this book// ?? question ?? if its in symbols how do they obey then?? would jesus tell john to write and deliver these messages without giving also a key in which to unlock these revelations??
for instance can we by reading a verse in revelation assume it means something that is not particularly stated?? here is an example; chap 1 v;9 , I, John,. 10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, now from that verse we know nothing of what day this is we would have to look elsewhere in the bible to discover just when that is.. ,, another time i will address this; continuing12 Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. ,, these verses also dont tell us what lampstands are and who is this person standing in the middle of these golden lampstands either .. .. what is my point then?? simple u have to keeep reading to fully understand just what is presented we live in a time when these sayings are not know ,, so we go back into the bible where these words have been mentioned before!! any other way and u lose just what is stated to ,,! u then ***-u- me things that are not written think about it mj

Wow! I'm stunned. That's sooo deep!
Resembles the "revelations" I had in the bad old days when I smoked pot. I actually tried writing them down a few times - they were embarrassing.

That scripture tells me of the plagues. The locus will cover the earth, and they will have power. They will devour everything in their path. Now think about that in reality.
