4 Horsemen of Apocalypse
Noise of Thunder

Weep Not
Revelation 5:5, And one of the elders saith to me, weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda the Root of David hath prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals thereof.
The Summit of Hubris
Time and again History repeats itself for the Lack of God Fearing Knowledge. The Book of Revelation is the summit of hubris and defiance against the Righteousness of God’s Statutes. A Scroll is Sealed and within lie the destiny of the Souls of Earth. Great sorrow commences for it appears no one is worthy to open the Scroll and as such all Hope is lost forever to return to Eden.
One comes forward in Victory King Jesus Christ is Worthy to open the seals as it is written in Revelation 5:12, Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength and honour, and glory, and blessing.
A time is coming and should be duly noted to heed the warning of Jesus there shall be “Great Tribulation” in the “Last Days”, Matthew 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.
To grasp the bitter understanding of this grave apocalyptic prophecy of “The Last Days” a time is revealed of a staunch opposition to the Holy Statutes of the Bible and as a such what commences is a personification of “Mans Cruelty to Man.” Such as it tis the warnings of the great tribulation !

2nd Peter 3 : 18, But grow in grace, and in knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen!
Seal One: The White Horse
Revelation 6:2, 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 “Bow” to conquer by way of deception a counterfeit “Peace and Safety.” 1st Thessalonians 5:3, For when they say, Peace and Safety then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.
The “Crown” signifies a cruel authority that demands to be worshiped and to pledge your soul by taking the “Mark of the Beast” as it is written in Revelation 14: 9-10, And a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand. The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.
The Keys of hell & Death
Revelation 1:18, I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive evermore. Amen; and have keys of hell and of death.

Like Unto the Son of Man
Revelation 1:13, And in the midst of seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of God, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the pops with a golden girdle.

Seal Two: The Red Horse
Revelation 6:4, 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 second seal breaks, a red horse emerges the rider is granted to weld a enormous sword to remove peace from the Earth.
The deceptive peace is taken away by the enemy “That Old Serpent” and violently forced aside, is the the Peace of God as it is written in Philippians 4:7, And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
The Earth is in chaotic struggle in the “Last Days” where treachery and betrayal shall be the cultural norm; even family members can no longer be trusted as it is written in Micah 7:2, 4-5, The good man perished out of the earth: and there is none upright among men: they lie and wait for blood; they hurt every man his brother with a net.
2nd Timothy 3:1, This know also, that in the last day perilous times shall come.
Matthew 10: 21, And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
Matthew 24: 10-12, And then shall any be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Nation Shall Rise Against Nation and the ruthlessness of War shall get under way as it is written in Mark 13:8, 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 beginning of sorrows.
Whence Come WAR as it is written in James 4:1, From whence come wars and fighting among you? come they not hence,, even of your lusts that war in your members?
Countenance was as the Sun
Revelation 1:16, And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

Bible Study
Ezekiel 44:1-3, Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looked toward the east; and it was shut. Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut it shall not be opened and no man shall enter in by it, therefore it shall be shut. It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.

They are Worthy
Revelation 16:6, For they have shed the blood of the saints and prophets and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.

Seal Three: The Black Horse
Revelation 6:5-6, 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. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beast say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny, and see that not hurt the oil and the wine.
The third seal is opened, a black horse rides forth, in verse 5 the rider is holding a pair of balances enabling an equal distribution.
On further deduction in verse 6 the black horse is a harbinger of severe economic conditions in modern terms “Hyperinflation”! Each living Soul shall be granted only ones daily allotment of food for survival.
Hyperinflation: A very high and typically accelerating inflation. It quickly erodes the real value of the currency as the prices of all goods and services increase.
Fiat Money Failure: “Fiat” typically backed only by confidence in the government. When confidence fails the money becomes a worthless paper.
Excessive Money Printing: Governments print money “Out of Air”, this drastically increases supply while the value plummets.
The byproduct of Economic Woes, Food Riots, Record Unemployment, Life Savings Lost.
The Oil can represent the essential staples of life such as in the Biblical daily life of Jesus. Oil was used for cooking and oil lamps. And religious ritual the “Anointing Oil” representing the Holy Spirit.
The Wine a Spiritual Symbol of the blood of Christ Jesus and the New Covenant.
The Oil & the Wine can be considered a protected luxury item which indicates the Heady & Highminded will manage just fine despite a time of economic crisis as it is written in 2nd Timothy 3:4, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.
1st Timothy 6:7, Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy.
A “World Beast (Old Serpent) System” will stabilize the world economic crisis by the introduction of a new “Biotech” currency “The Mark of the Beast”! Once the implementation of the “Mark ” is a done deal. A final conflict of the benevolent goodness of God vs the Evil malevolent destruction and chaos of the Old Serpent leads to “Armageddon”!
Vesture Dipped in Blood
Revelation 19: 13, And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

The LORD is Nigh
Psalms 34:18, The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

Seal Four: The Pale Horse
Revelation 6:7-8, And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice beast say, Come and see. 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 the sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beast of the earth.
The Fourth Seal is unlocked and we are invited to “Come and See”. That which is revealed is a “Pale Horse” the name of rider that sits upon the horse is Death & Hell follows. We shall traverse through the the Bible and see what is written regarding the 2 designation titles of Death & Hell.
Death first mentioned is the last enemy of humankind to be defeated as it is written in 1st Corinthians 15:26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
The Holy Scriptures speaks of the glorious good news where death shall be terminated as it is written in Revelation 21:4, And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for former things are passed away.
The meaning of the word Hell is self-explanatory but here is a Bible verse to illuminate as it is written in Matthew 10:28, And fear not them which kill the body but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
In conclusion the Faithful retains Victory through Christ Jesus over Death and Hell as it is written in Revelation 1:18, I am he that liveth, and was dead, and , behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have keys of hell and of death.
Wormwood Apocalypse
Wormwood Apocalypse rcascoherrera on Pixabay
Great Star of Heaven
Revelation 8:10-11, And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon a third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters. And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and a third part of the waters became wormwood and many men died of wormwood, because they were made bitter.
4 Horsemen of Apocalypse
Strong Man
Mark 3:27, No man can enter into a strong mans house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.

A Strong Mans House
Mark 3:27 is a Parable where Jesus explains He is the (stronger man) come to rescue the living Soul under the demonic influence of darkness. Jesus binds Satan (the spoiler) and frees the Souls of humanity from the bondage of sin. Hallelujah!
Awknowledged: Hallelujah: is a Hebrew word meaning ‘Praise ye Yah’ or ‘Praise the Lord’ The word Hallelujah serves as a joyful shout of thanksgiving and gratitude to God.
