Known popularly as ‘The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse’, there has been much debate over who or what these horsemen are. This article will show, by letting the Bible define itself, that these horsemen are spiritual forces that have been on the Earth since the first day of the Church age until the Rapture of the Church and the start of the Great Tribulation. The Opening of The Seals. The Seven Seals of the Book Jesus Christ opens run through the entire history of the Church.“And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.” – Revelation 6: 1.

1. Who are the four horsemen of the Apocalypse? A biblical study of the first four seals of Revelation.
2. In late May, a yellow Chevrolet Corvette Z06 smashed into a tree in Michigan, leaving an expensive car in utter pieces. At first, it was a bit of a mystery who the.

To fully understand the context of the sealed scroll being opened, we have to go back to Revelation chapter 5, where the book is first given. The Apostle John was caught up to Heaven and given access to see God’s Heavenly throne room. A detailed description of this room is given in Chapter 4. John is standing before God Almighty. And in Chapter 5, we see the seven- sealed book: And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

Revelation 5: 1- 7. In this passage, the 7 sealed book is held by The Lord but no one is found who is worthy of to open. Verse 3 states that no one worthy was found “in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the Earth.”Now it is Jesus Christ who of course is worthy to open the book.

If 90 minutes of rally documentary isn’t your thing, watch the few minutes on the Safari rally which starts at 30:33. After the brief intro, it cuts to a music. Just one day after Hurricane Harvey made landfall in southeastern Texas, historic flooding continued to wrack the city of Houston and surrounding areas.

Benchmark Capital, one of Uber’s largest investors, is trying to explain its legal feud with former CEO Travis Kalanick to the ride-sharing company’s employees.

So why does verse 3 say this? It is because John is seeing this play out right before the resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ. John is seeing what for him, would be going into the past. This is critical to understand. Jesus Christ, in Revelation 1, instructs John to: “Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter.” This is a reference to the past, present and future. So going back to the throne room, John sees Jesus enter Heaven after His resurrection, when He conquered death and the grave and won salvation for all who believe in Him.

If this was decades after the Resurrection and ascension of Christ to Heaven, why would the angel say “no man” could be found anywhere worthy to open the Book? Jesus’ victory and atonement on the cross made the only man in the universe worthy to open it. And John is there to witness the scene in Heaven at the moment Jesus returns to Heaven, His earthly mission completed. The angel who is speaking to John confirms this saying: “Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.” There can be no question that this is referring to Jesus. And His victory earned Him the role of receiving the Divine book.

It is this author’s contention that this seven sealed book is the same book the prophet Daniel is told to seal until the time of the end in Daniel 1. Watch Amnesiac Mediafire here. At two points an angels instructs Daniel to: But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Daniel 1. 2: 9- 1. Now that we have the time frame and context established, the seals themselves can be examined. The Horsemen – Spiritual Forces For God. The Book of Zechariah provides the Biblical explanation of the spirit - realm horses.

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. Revelation 6: 1- 2. Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

Peter 1: 2. 0. The Bible instructs us to interpret Scripture by using other Scripture. Corinthians 2 states: “Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”  This is critical – the Holy Spirit teaches us that we are to compare Scripture (which is spiritual) with Scripture. So in order to divide a passage that is prophetic, there should be some confirming Scripture elsewhere in the Bible.

In the case of the colored horses and their riders, we find that confirmation in Zechariah Chapter 6. And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the LORD of all the earth.

Zechariah 6: 1- 5. Throughout the book of Zechariah, the prophet encounters beings and creatures from the spirit realm. In Chapter 6, he is converses an angel.

And from between two “mountains of brass” come forth a group of chariots with horses. As is often the case when a prophet encounters an angelic being or sight that is confusing, The Lord, in His mercy, has an angel to provide the explanation for us. The chariots and their horses are spirits that stand before God. They are spirit realm beings manifesting as a chariot and horses when they come to Earth. And their appearance happens to correspond to the colors of the horses we see in the first four seals of Revelation.

B& E: the color “grisled and bay”, can mean grayish, which is similar to “pale” in Revelation. Watch Taxi Driver Full Movie. Pale does not mean “white”, it means grayish or sickly looking. In the Septuagint, the fourth horse in Zechariah is called “ash- colored.”)In Zechariah Chapter 1, the prophet sees colored horses and inquires as to who they are and receives similar confirmation: I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white.

Then said I, O my lord, what are these?
