The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

[Ezra]

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have become legendary. Many Christians believe that the first four seals will be opened at the time when the Antichrist appears on the scene, with the first horseman representing the Antichrist. 

There are not too many who have actually connected these horsemen with the events in the earlier part of the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24:4-13).  But a close comparison shows a correspondence to the events listed by the Lord Jesus Christ from the time of the destruction of the second Temple (70 AD) until the time of the third Temple and the Abomination of Desolation.  As we can see below, those horsemen have already been released and are already bringing judgments upon the earth.

 

White Horse (Rev 6:1,2) Horseman with bow and crown“conquering and to conquer”	False Christs (including popes) (Mt 24:5) False Prophets (Mt 24:11) bow = attacks on Bible truth crown = usurped authority
Red Horse (Rev 6:3,4) Horseman with great sword “take peace from the earth, kill one another”	Sword = warfare Wars, rumours of wars, nation against nation, kingdom against kingdom (Mt 24:6,7)
Black Horse (Rev 6:5,6) Horseman with pair of balances “a measure of wheat for a penny, Three measure of barley for a penny”	Famine ...And there shall be famines (Mt 24:7)
Pale Horse (Rev 6:7,8) Horsemen; Death and Hades “Kill with the sword, with hunger, with death, with beasts of the earth”	Death ...pestilences, earthquakes, martyrdom, executions,  betrayals (Mt 24:7-12)

Yes Ezra, they match exactly with Matthew 24.  I can see that too.

Hi Ezra,

Agreed. Matt 24 adds some extra details, the two complement each other.

I've had quite a few years to think on this, and there is no doubt in my mind we are in the black horse period right now & are close to it's climax where the scales in the black riders hand kicks in, which is what "they" have  been planning so long now (so the world cries out for a solution of course) .. and we are now quite a bit along the way and they are certainly getting closer to achieving this "crisis".

And as soon as everything starts to crash (which is engineered btw, see rev 17:16-17) the scales in the hand of the black rider will come into play world wide .. food prices will soar astronomically, along with fuel, electricity, water etc etc etc

Right on cue for the next horse, the pale horse .. "he" will have the "answers" .. but unbeknown to the world, it comes at a price .. for as soon as they say "peace and safety" .. sudden destruction will come upon them .. this is when all bets are off and the wheels start to fall off .. but only after everyone is marked of course .. that is the primary objective .. mark the world first, then the wars begin in earnest .. and the blood will come up to the horses bridle.

God bless.
