Revelation explained!

The Opening of the Seven Seals!

revelation chapter 6
Revelation 6

 


The releasing of the Seven Seals...Last Day ministry goes forth...Peace being taken from the earth through warfare...A Great Famine...Death and horror on earth... A Great Martyrdom..The earth shaken...The wrath of God released...

The opening of the seals are in relation to the events which are to take place in the latter part of the dispensation under Grace.

John saw the Book in the hand of Him that sat upon the throne, with seven seals upon the back thereof.

The Book is the record of God's plan of salvation on earth, and the information under the seals were not to be released until the very Last Days of His plan of redemption.
(Chapter 6)

Why did God hold back this information? Because such information was not needed hitherto and would serve to create confusion in the true revelation held under the seals.

Many honest hearted ministers have erred in their interpretation of the mysteries and sayings recorded in the Bible in an attempt to understand and explain them. But when we move ahead of God's time of release we are subject to mistakes.

This, of course, brings confusion in the mind of those who live in the End Days, before God releases the truth of the true salvation. Because of the past teachings of the last century, there has been divisions of hundreds of faiths.

However, Zion shall receive the full revelation through the ministry of God's Chosen Elect in the Last Day, when the dispersed of Israel are gathered from all nations.

It is then, and only then, that God's people (Zion) will see eye to eye and the unity of all of God's people will become One in Christ. God's people in THAT DAY will know that God is speaking through His Watchmen who are publishing salvation unto Zion.

Isaiah 52:8 
"Thy watchmen shall lift up the Voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion."
Read verses 6 and 7 also...

Isaiah 52:6-7
6. Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

7. 
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion,Thy God reigneth!

The contents of that which was hidden behind the seals was made known to Daniel. But it was not to be released in its fulness to the public until the End Days.

However, the subject matter has been shown from Genesis throughout the Bible in type and shadow, through the production of the Church.

The Prophets and the Apostles have understood through the Inspiration of God's Spirit, and have written in part, in the Books of the Bible for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.

The contents of the seals have been foreshadowed and manifested in part, since the beginning of the last century of the Age.

The prophecy of Daniel said that many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase in the End Time. This began when the automobile came into existence somewhere around 1906.

Nahum also gives us some information of their coming and speed.

Nahum 2:3-5
3. The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.

4. 
The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.

5. 
He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk: they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.

This,of course,was only the beginning of the running to and fro, and now men travel to the moon in just a short time.

Knowledge was also increased in the recent past and the present time; not only worldly knowledge, but also Scriptural knowledge.

The opening of the seals pronounce judgment upon the earth. The first seal deals with the church.

1 Peter 4:17 says, that judgment must begin first at the house of God. "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?" ...

God is now judging His people because of sin.
 In order to have a pure clean church. He judges His people by their walk in Christ...

1 Timothy 5:24-25 
24. Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.

25. Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid"
....

It is according to their walk. The 
sins of the Last Day Church will be judged beforehand unto perfection, or unto a perfect Church.

THE WHITE HORSE AND THE RIDER

The contents of the first seal was manifested in type around the year 1906, when God brought a mighty deluge of His Spirit upon the people of God.

Thousands were slain under the power of God. In the streets and in the churches, souls were baptised with the Holy Spirit and fire, and they began to speak in the unknown tongue as they did in the early church, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, etc.

All were baptised in the Holy Ghost and fire: that would accept it, and in all different churches, God worked by His Spirit restoring unity and oneness.

God's people will be judged and separated according to their deeds and actions. The opening of the first seal is the beginning of the church revival in the Last Day.

This seal will not be closed until God's purpose has been concluded. The same applies to all seals. When they are opened, they must run their course from the time of their opening until the end.

Revelation chapter 6:1-2
1. 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.

2. 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.

The White Horse and the Rider symbolizes a great revival of the Last Day. The Holy Spirit carries the weight of the revival. God is now in the process of preparing His Army, Who will be the Rider of the White Horse.

Jesus said He would send the Comforter to show us things of Himself, and to convince the world of righteousness, and of sin, and of judgment.

John 16:7-11
7. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8. 
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9. 
Of sin, because they believe not on me:

10. 
Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and  ye see me no more;

11. 
Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

Jesus is now in the process of preparing the Army. The seal will not be opened until the Army has been tested, proven, and perfected.

This Army is the Elect and She will be gathered at the Second Coming of Jesus, unto salvation.....

Hebrews 9:28
“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”…

Matthew 24:31
"And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet,and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds,from one end of heaven to the other."

Matthew 24: 40-41
40. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41. 
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Luke 17:34-36
34. I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35. 
Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

36. 
Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.......The ELECT SHALL BE TAKEN and the other left.

The contents of this seal as a fore- runner, has been manifested since the beginning of the 19th century, and is released in its fulness at the specified time, at the beginning of the Last Day Ministry.

Since Jesus departed into heaven, the Holy Spirit (the White Horse) is carrying the whole load of developing the Church as the Body of Christ, which is to be joined together with Him when She is perfected.

1Corinthians chapter12 and Ephesians chapters 4 and 5

The Holy Spirit (the White Horse) has been given the responsibility of carrying the weight of the finished ministry of the Son of God and the Church.

Therefore, the Riders are Jesus and the Church. Under the supervision of the Holy Spirit, the Church is now going through the stages of development to become the Body, the Elect, and eventually the Bride of Christ.

When Her perfection is completed the first seal will be opened, and the Body as a great Army, will go forth conquering and to conquer, with Jesus at the Head... 

Joel 2:11

 "And the Lord
 shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?" and …….

Joel 3:16
"The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel."

The only weapon that the Rider of the White Horse carried was a BOW(Revelation chapter 6:2). It was a weapon that could shoot fiery darts to the heart. Not the darts of the Enemy, but the darts of the WORD OF GOD, that could pierce asunder the soul and body.

The BOW in hand was the only weapon of strength that could conquer the Foe. The BOW is the WORD of GOD, Genesis 9:13-16 tell us that God put a BOW in the cloud to remember His WORD to Noah.

It was called a RAINBOW and signified that when it rained on earth He would remember His WORD of promise.

Genesis 9:13-16
13. I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.

14. 
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:

15. 
And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

16. 
And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

Habakkuk3:9
"Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers."...

This Rider fights not 
with natural instruments of war, but with the WORD of God. He was crowned KING OF KINGS, and LORD of LORDS. His battle was unto Salvation.

The only protection therefrom is the full armor of God. God's Word shall not be void. It is the power of life or death.

The Rider is crowned with power and strength of the Almighty by the Word. In THAT DAY, the elements of heaven will move at the command BY THE WORD.

The earth will tremble and the mountains shall be removed at the command.

The Church, the great Army of God, will have power to remit sins,Joel 2: 1-11, Matthew 16:18,and John20:23 (below).

The gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church, The gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations, and then shall the End come...

Matthew 24:14 
”And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.”

Joel 2: 1-11
1. Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain:let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

2.
 
A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

3. 
A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

4. 
The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.

5. 
Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.

6. 
Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.

7. 
They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:

8. 
Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.

9. They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall,they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.

10. 
The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

11. 
And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

Matthew 16:18
“And I say also unto thee,That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church;and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

John 20:23
“Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain,they are retained.”

Some seminaries interpret the White Horse and His Rider as the Devil or the Anti-christ. But this would be impossible, for the Antichrist does not come in Person until the seals are all opened.

We go to the Bible for further understanding, by analyzing the word WHITE. White is used only three times in the Gospels, and each time it is in connection with the Son of God and His clothing.

AT HIS TRANSFIGURATION: Matthew 17:2Mark 9:3
Luke 9:29
....He was 
transfigured before Peter, James, and John, and His face did shine as the sun, and His raiment was  WHITE as snow…

Matthew 17:2
“And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun,and his raiment was WHITE as the light.”

Mark 9:3
“And his raiment became shining, exceeding WHITE as snow; so, as no fuller on earth can white them.”

Luke 9:29
“And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was WHITE and glistering.”

AT HIS RESURRECTION: 
Matthew 28:3, Mark 16:5, John 20:1? His countenance was like lightning, and His raiment WHITE as snow.

Matthew 28:3
His countenance was like lightning,and his raiment WHITE as snow:”

Mark 16:5
“And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side,clothed in a long WHITE garment; and they were affrighted.”

John 20:12
“And seeth two angels in WHITE sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.”

AT HIS ASCENSION: Acts 1:10 "And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in WHITE apparel."

WHITE is symbolic of purity in relation to righteousness and holiness. It is never used in connection with sin and corruption. 

In the Book of Revelation, WHITE is used 15 times....

Rev 1:14  His head and his hairs were WHITE like wool.
”His head and his hairs were WHITE like
 wool,as WHITE as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;”

  Rev 2:17  A WHITE stone for the overcomers.
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the  churches;To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him WHITE stone, and in the stone a new name written,which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.”

  Rev 4:4  Twenty four elders clothed in WHITE raiment.
“And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting,clothed in WHITE raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.”

Revelation chapter 6:11  Martyrs given WHITE raiment.  “And WHITE robes were given unto every one of them;and it was said unto them,that they should rest yet for a little season,until their fellowservants also and their brethren,
that should be killed as they were,should be fulfilled.”

Rev 7:1-13 Multitudes out of the great tribulation in WHITE robes.
                    (See Scriptures Here)

Rev 7:14 
 They washed their robes and made them WHITE in the blood of the Lamb.
 “And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation,and have washed their robes,and made them WHITE in the blood of the Lamb.”

Rev 14:14  The Son of Man sat upon a WHITE cloud. 
“And I looked, and behold a WHITE cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.”

Rev 20:11
  The Great WHITE Throne Judgement.               “And I saw agreat WHITE throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.”

Rev 19:8  The Bride arrayed in fine linen, WHITE and clean. 
“And to her was granted that she should 
be arrayed in fine linen,clean and WHITE: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.”

Rev 19:11 Christ the Rider on the WHITE Horse. 
“And I saw heaven opened,and
 behold a WHITE horse;and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True,and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.”

Rev 19:14
 Army on WHITE horses, clothed in WHITE.
“And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon WHITE horses,clothed in fine linen,WHITE and clean.” Others also...

Isaiah 1:18
 “Come now, and let us reason together together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as WHITE as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”

Daniel 11:35
 
“And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them WHITE , even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.”

In these scriptures we can understand that WHITE has no part with the Devil. The WHITE Horse and It's Rider, (Christ and His Church) will evangelize the whole earth in THAT DAY.

Read about it in the Book of 
Joel and Isaiah and in
Rev 19:11-16 below.

Revelation 19:11-16
11. And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12. 
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13. 
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called THE WORD of GOD.

14. 
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon WHITE horses, clothed in fine linen, WHITE and clean.

15. 
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16. 
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written,KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.


THE RED HORSE AND HIS RIDER
(The Second Seal)

Revelation 6:3-4
3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

4. 
And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.


The mission of this Rider was to kill and shed blood by waring with a SWORD, (not the two-edged sword) but an instrument to kill in warfare, to bring nation against one another and take peace from the earth.

The horse is the symbol of force and power. In our day we would call it a great machine.

It is a RED HORSE going out to take peace from the earth by warfare and blood shed, a great slaughter, and the outpouring of red blood upon the earth in killing of one another.

The White Horse and His Rider comes to conquer sin and to bring peace to the earth, but the Red Horse and His Rider comes to kill and take peace FROM THE EARTH.

These Two Riders are on opposite sides. They oppose one another. They both have a job to do on earth and are Enemies of one another. The Rider of the Red Horse is the brains of this world, empowered by the spirit of Antichrist.

The wars is Satan's doings. He is out to take peace from the earth. The Red Horse is the spirit of the Antichrist, carrying Satan's prepared Rider.

The World War of 1914 foreshadows the beginning of taking peace from the earth; unrest, strife, wars, and rumors of wars have filled the earth.

Every attempt to bring the nations together by the League of Nations or the United Nations has failed.

The second World War shook the world again when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Thousands more passed into eternity as the war continued.

The Red Horse was on the move again taking his toll. The Atom bomb brought fear to the whole world.

The United Nations was formed in an attempt to control the nations, but in just nine short years the Korean War broke out in the year 1950.

Then there was the undeclared war in Viet Nam which followed, and now we have trouble in the Middle East where another war has put the nations in confusion With great fear in the nations, they become sick at heart not knowing which way to turn in order to prevent the Nuclear war from breaking out and destroying the earth.

Red China, the great communistic antichristal nation, which flies the flag with the Red Dragon, is coming to the front, and Russia is living in a state of nerves.

Yes, peace is being taken from the earth by the Red Horse and His Rider, with the sword given to Him. This is a fore-runner of nation against nation when peace will be taken from the earth at the conclusion of the second seal.

For centuries the world has had peace, wars and disturbances have only been miner. Then suddenly like the bursting of a bomb shell, war struck the nations.

Its Not a coincidence but a prophecy. John saw the war of the nation’s almost 2,000 years ago. Jesus foretold of nations rising against nations...

Mathew 24:24-25
 “Behold, I have told you before”...
24. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

25. 
Behold, I have told you before.

Mathew 24:6-7
6. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars:see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass,but the end is not yet.

7. 
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines,and pestilences, and earthquakes,in divers places.

Christians take the actions of the nations too lightly. Because of nation rising against nation gradually through the years we have grown up with accepting these things without realizing the outcome.

Now it is here and it shall grow worse and worse. This is prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes.

Yet the Christian world is not stirred...WHY?...Because they are not aware of the truth, and many are not concerned. This is the way the Enemy wants it.

We are warned in the Scriptures that HE would blind our eyes. In the same chapter that tells us of wars in the nations, It warns us of false prophets and false christs.

The Devil has taken the desire to know from our hearts, that He might catch us off guard. If one could know that a flood was coming and that it would destroy his home and take his life, then he would prepare for that event.

When our financial wizards foresee a depression, they begin to prepare the people for the occasion. Jesus has told us of these things that are to come in the End Times. John has shown us his great Revelation.

WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT IT?...Most Christians are just sitting, waiting for Jesus to COME, not REALIZING what must happen in the world before He comes.

You and I will be here in these End Times. Those of us who are living in the END TIMES are warned by prophecies in the Scriptures of these times and we are without excuse.

There will be a great tribulation upon the earth, before the 3 1/2 year Antichristal Reign. This is shaping up now, READ Matthew 24:21....

Mathew 24:21
“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.”


THE BLACK HORSE AND HIS RIDER
(The Third Seal)


Revelation chapter 6:5-6
 
5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say,Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny; and three measures of barley for a penny, and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine."

This Black Horse and His Rider declare famine.....
Matthew 24:7, "There shall be famines  
and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”....

Mark 13:8
 
also declares trouble with famines. 
“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.”: These Scriptures are linked together, the Rider of the Black Horse brings famines and starvation. 

Certainly, these Scriptures fit the description of the days in which we live and they are a fore-runner.

In 1930 over 5,000,000 people in Russia died because of famine. Other millions have died of starvation in China, India, and other parts of the earth.

Worldwide famine is deepening and shall prevail until the very End. The ground is over fertilized, over-taxing the substance of the soil. Africa is near starvation because of famine and war, and there are other nations where people are now starving.

Scarcity of food will prevail. Rationing will come as it was in the 1st and 2nd World Wars. America, the land of plenty, will not be able to feed the world. The balances in the Rider's hand signifies scarcity and rationing. Worldwide famine shall exist.

The Black Horse is the sign of sorrow and want.
Jeremiah 14:1-2 
"The Word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.” Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof anguish; they are BLACK UNTO THE GROUND: and the CRY OF JERUSALEM IS GONE UP.".....

Lamentations 5:10
 
"OUR SKIN WAS BLACK LIKE AN OVEN because of the TERRIBLE FAMINE."
.....This is the fore-runner of the Black Horse.
 

АLL of these experiences of Israel are written for our admonition. They foreshadow the hardships of famine of That Day of the opening of the third seal.

The Book of Joel verifies the condition and the movements in THAT DAY. Read it CAREFULLY and let the WORD speak for Itself.

Joel 1:2-4
 Declares the positive famine of That Day, and that is to be in the days of the coming of the Lord. It is the theme of the whole chapter.

The second and third chapters declare the movements of the Elect Army, with Jesus at the Head. A strong People manifesting the supernatural power of God on earth. The earth and the heavens will shake.

Nothing like it has ever happened on earth before,
2. Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers?

3.
Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.

4.
That which the palmerworm hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpillar eaten.

FAMINE FOLLOWS WARS: They claim this world is increasing its population so rapidly that in a few years it will not be able to supply the needs of the people. Birth control is recommended.

A few nuclear bombs dropped here and there will decrease vegetation and the population of the earth. The prophecies of famine should be expected. Famines will increase until the End of the earth.

Revelation chapter 6:6
 
"A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine."

God's
 People will have plenty. The mountains of Israel that was desolate will produce in THAT DAY and Israel will be brought together...

Read Ezekiel the 36th chapter.. (See Scriptures Here). This takes place in the fulness of the prophecy when the third seal is opened. Jesus declares famine in the Last Days.....

Matthew 24:7
“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”

BUT SEE THOU HURT NOT THE OIL AND THE WINE.....

1 Kings 17:14
 
"For thus 
saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth"....

The cruse of oil and the 
meal in the barrel of the widow did not fail, and there will be plenty for the TRUE CHILD OF GOD, in THAT DAY.

THE PALE HORSE AND HIS RIDER
(The Fourth Seal)

Revelation 6:7-8
 
7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say. Come and see.

8. And I looked, and behold a Pale Horse: and his name that sat 
on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.
And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

The
 Pale Horse and It's Rider signifies ghastly, deathly, pale unto death. Death is the Rider's mission.

Death throughout the land. Remember what happened in Egypt before Israel went out?...There was death to all the first born...

Revelation 6:8 
"And power was given unto them over the 
fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth."...One fourth of the population of the earth is given over to the agencies of destruction.

Ezekiel 14:21
"For thus saith the Lord God; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beasts?"...

Jerusalem, as it is now controlled by the Antichristal Jews will be cleansed and the SPIRITUAL JEWS will take over as God's Chosen People.

Death through wars, famine, pestilence, strife, hatred, etc. will abound. This will be worldwide and will continue until the End comes.

Dreadful conditions are in the world now, but they do not compare with the coming conditions that will come in the very near future, at the opening of these seals.

Seal Number 1.
 
The WHITE HORSE: Worldwide revival will continue until the Church is taken out as on Eagle Wings' power...

Rev 12:6

“And the woman fled into the wilderness,where she hath a place prepared of God,that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and three score days.”

Seal Number 2.
 
The RED HORSE; Worldwide war and blood shed, which will continue until the Beast takes over the world.

Seal Number 3.
 The BLACK HORSE: Worldwide famine, which will continue until the End of the Age, with food becoming scarcer as time passes by.

Seal Number 4.
 The PALE HORSE: Worldwide death; pestilence, disease, death is everywhere in the world today, but woe unto the world in THAT DAY.

The OPENING OF EACH SEAL releases certain judgments upon the earth. The End of the Age is near.

The opening of the SEALS is divided into two groups. The four Horses and Their Riders in the first group, and the last three, which have altogether different features.

The seven days of the Lord's Week, likewise is divided similarly. The first four 1,000 year days of God's time are progressive days in preparation under the first 4,000 years.

The last three days of 3,000 years feature the dispensation under Grace, and the 1,000 year day of the Millennium.

Psalms 90:4 
"For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."
...

And I quote from...

 2 Peter 3:8 
"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this 
one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as ONE day. "

THE FIFTH SEAL

Revelation 6:9-11 
9. And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

10. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, О Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? .

11. And white robes were given unto 
every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled."

The opening of the fifth seal declares a great martyrdom in the Christian ranks of the Last Days.

There is yet to come a great tribulation upon the earth with false prophets, and false christs before the Beastly Antichristal Reign, which will create a great deception upon the earth.

The sinners are already deceived; therefore, this prophecy pertains to the professing Christians in THAT DAY who do not know the reality of God by the quickening Spirit of God dwelling in their bodies, and not dwelling in their minds only.

It will be those who only believe that they are Christians without having the Quickening Spirit of confirmation or the fruits of the Spirit, who will be deceived first in THAT DAY.

The souls under the altar are not sleeping as some declare, but rather they are crying for revenge. Many have been martyred, and much blood has been shed in the past.

They are resting for a little season, until their brethren that were yet to be martyred as they were should be fulfilled.

The Spirit of martyrdom is Satanic and has been in existence since the creation of mankind. The Spirit of martyrdom manifests the reality of the hatred of Satan against God and His creative plan.

The cry for vengeance began when Cain slew his righteous brother Abel, and his righteous blood cried unto the Lord from the ground.....

Genesis 4:10
“And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.”

Romans 12:19
“Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord”....

And every martyred soul shall be avenged by God at the close of 
the Last Day dispensation of the Ages.

All of God's people have been the target of martyrdom by the Enemy since the Beginning of the world, but God has stayed His hand from wholesale martyrdom until His purpose of salvation shall be brought to an end.

During the Apostolic ministry, and centuries following, thousands of Christians were martyred due to the hatred of Christ and the Gospel message.

Prophecy has been declared that many shall be martyred in the Last Day, the day which we are now entering into. Hatred of Christianity is clearly seen and swiftly advancing unto that day of martyrdom.

The Martyrs, spoken of, are those of the past and of the future who give or have given their lives for the Lord. The Scripture forewarns of these times...

Matthew 24:9-13
9. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10. 
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11. 
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12. 
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13. 
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. and...

Matthew 10:16-23
16. Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

17. 
But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

18. 
And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

19. 
But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

20. 
For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

21. 
And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.

22. 
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

23. 
But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.

And.......

2 Timothy 3:12-13
12. Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

13. 
But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, decieving,and being decieved.

Many people will touch the suffering of Christ and will die for Him. It will take more than a religious spirit in this LAST DAY to give our life's blood.

They (the souls crying unto the Lord) were under the altar. The altar was the place where the blood was shed and the sacrifice burned.

The custom of the temple worship, after the blood had been sprinkled before the Lord, was to pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the Brasen Altar.

It was carried from there through conduits, which were laid for that purpose, to be carried to the brook of Kidron,

Leviticus 4:7,25,34 
7. "And the priest shall put some of the blood upon the horns of the altar of sweet incense before the LORD,which is in the tabernacle of the congregation;and shall pour all the blood of the bullock at the bottom of the altar of the
burnt offering,which is at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.”

25. "And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering"

34."And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering with his finger,and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering,and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar."

The sacrifice took place at the altar. The life that was in the blood was poured at the base thereof. The sacrifice was killed (martyred), The blood was poured out there and the life was taken.
 

The blood of Jesus cries for forgiveness of the sinner. The blood of Abel and the martyrs, cries out for righteous judgment and the coming of the Lord. 

How long О Lord
 must we wait for vengeance? The soul cries for vengeance because the time is near at hand. These souls were slain for the Word of God, and for their testimony.

God, and His Word, was so mighty in the Apostles that it aroused the anger and hatred of the world. The LAST DAY martyrs will have a peculiar testimony that will cause the world to want to kill them.

Jesus angered the Jewish world with His teachings, and when He testified that He was the SON of God, they railed on Him and nailed Him to the Cross.

The martyrs will stand true to their testimony of the Church, and will not compromise, even as Jesus stood fast that He was the SON of God. Many shall be martyred in the opening of the fifth seal...

Matthew 24:9
“Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted,and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.”

Revelation 12:11
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,and by the word of their testimony;and they loved not their lives unto the death.”

White robes were given them. They were the robes of purity and righteousness, because the time is near when their cry will be answered.

They must wait and rest a LITTLE SEASON until their fellow servants and brethren should be killed as they were. Further persecution will be upon the Believers and many shall give their lives as martyrs in the near future.

Violence filled the earth in the days of Noah, and Jesus says these days will come again in the End Days...

Matthew 24:38-39
 
38. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,.

39. And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

The Great Harlot of 
Revelation 17 (See Scriptures Here) is drunken with the blood of the prophets and saints and all that is slain upon the earth.

She is Satan's woman of the Ages and Satan is a murderer. Mystery Babylon, the Mother of Harlots, seeks the souls of men...

Revelation 18:13,24
13. "And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves and souls of men."

24. "And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth."
...

MYSTERY BABYLON is the great City of Wickedness,(counterfeiting God's City, New Jerusalem,) She is the Wife of the Beast.

The day of vengeance will come as the day of the Battle of Armageddon when the wicked shall be bathed in blood that will flow for two hundred miles upon the earth. 
Revelation 14:18-20, Revelation 16:16-21.

The Scripture saith,
 "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."

Revelation 14:18-20
18. And another angel came out from the altar,which had power over fire;and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle,saying,Thrust in thy sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth;for her grapes are fully ripe.

19. 
And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth ,and gathered the vine of the earth,and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

20. 
And the winepress was trodden without the city,and blood came out of the winepress,even unto the horse bridles,by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.

Revelation 16:16-21
16. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

17. 
And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

18. 
And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

19. 
And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

20. 
And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

21. 
And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

Revelation 6:12-17
12. And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;.

13. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;.

16. And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.

17. For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?"

The releasing of the sixth seal will bring the greatest awakening of all times.

The events of the past are minor compared to what the world will face in the near future. Christians and sinners alike, will lose their proud indifference and arrogant spirit.

Suddenly they will become abased. Realizing that what is happening to the earth is not a natural phenomenon but a supernatural act of God they will be very fearful..

A GREAT EARTHQUAKE: This time it will not be just in divers places far off from us, but the whole universe will be shaken all at once.

This is NOT the END OF THE WORLD as many will believe, at that time, but it is an awakening of the world that GOD IS LORD and is not an imaginary or a dead God.

The End cannot come until all the seals have been opened and run their course, and all prophecies have been fulfilled. The Bible clearly states and prophecies of these coming events.....

Matthew 24:29-30
29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30. 
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Mark 13:24-26
24. But in those days,after that tribulation,the sun shall be darkened,and the moon shall not give her light,

25. 
And the stars of heaven shall fall,and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.

26. 
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

Luke 21:25-33
25. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

26. 
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

27. 
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28. 
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

29. 
And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

30. 
When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.

31. 
So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.

32. 
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

33. 
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

(Six is the number of man)

PAST PHENOMENONS

God has brought similar supernatural manifestations upon the world and some are recorded in the Bible, as transactions that took place in times past. We will call your attention to some of the most outstanding ones.

Exodus 19:18
 
"And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the Lord descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly." 

Matthew 27:45-52
 
45. Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

46. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama 
sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why has thou forsaken me?.

47. Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

48. And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him To drink.

49. The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.

50. 
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

51. And, behold, the 
veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;.

52. And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose."

Matthew 28:2 
"And behold, there was a great earthquake; for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it."

CONDITIONS OF THE SIXTH SEAL AND
THE END DAY

The sun became black as sackcloth of hair. Darkness was upon the whole earth. Black as sackcloth! Sackcloth speaks of mourning and repentance.

This will be brought about by the events of the sixth seal. God's call for all men to repent everywhere is brought about by these mighty acts.

Jesus says that if the mighty works or acts of God had been done in Tyre and Sidon as will be done in THAT DAY, they would have repented long ago sitting in sackcloth and ashes,

Matthew 11:21 
“Woe unto thee,Chorozin!woe unto thee Bethsaida!for if the mighty works, which were done in you,had been done in Tyre and Sidon,they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.” 
Darkness in all the earth compares with the Scripture...

Exodus 10:22
 "And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:"

The moon became as blood. The moon is a symbol of Jesus the Son of God. The moon's, becoming as blood, is a sign to the world of the blood of Jesus that was shed for them, when Jesus was crucified.

The Woman, the Church is standing upon the moon...

Revelation 12:1
 
"And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars;" ...

The blood of Jesus is the foundation of all
 Christianity. The Woman has prepared Herself by submitting Herself to the full essence of the power in the blood.

The stars of heaven will fall when they are shaken like a mighty wind. The heavens will be rolled together for a time...The mountains on earth will be removed out of their place.

THE EFFECTS OF MAN ON EARTH

The kings, the captains, the mighty men, and all upon the earth, and all that don't know God will hide in the rocks and caves of the mountains....

WHY?....BECAUSE they will have had a 
glimpse of the glory of God. They will cry for the rocks and the mountains to fall upon them to hide them from the face of God.

Fear of the wrath of God and death, which they feel is near, will cause them to Seek death. They desire to die any other way rather than by the Fire of God's Glory.

This is another great phenomenon of God, to create HIS FEAR upon the men of the earth, that they might know that He is God and LORD OVER BOTH HEAVEN AND EARTH, However, these great features are not the End of the world.

The earth will quake. The sun will be darkened. The moon will turn to blood. The Chosen Elect of God's Army are gathered. Famines and hardships will increase.

Fear and Demonic power of great deception will flood the earth. Many will be deceived, and the great Last Day Ministry will begin.
