Rev 12:1:5 Activity from earth’s view Rev 4 Activity from heaven’s view Rev 5 Activity from heaven’s view Rev 4,5,12:1-5 told us events from heaven’ view and earth’s view connected with the true Church caught up (raptured) to heaven and the visible unsaved Church that was left behind to go into the 3 ½ year great Christian tribulation period (for review click on any of the images above). Now we are going to study events connected withthe great 3 ½ year Christian tribulation period.

  5. Interpretation of the six seals of Rev 6 Rev 6:1-171 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.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.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.7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of thefourth

  6. 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.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, O 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 littleseason, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.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.

  7. 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: Jesus account of the 3 ½ year Christian tribulation period given on the Mount of Olives as He spoke to His disciples that match perfectly all 6 seals of Rev 6 Matthew 24:7-14 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 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. 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.

  8. It is best to study the 6 seals opened during the 3 ½ Christian tribulation period against the backdrop of what Jesus said in His Mount Olivet discourse as recorded in Matt 24:7-14 and Luke 21:10-19 concerning this same time (see chart below). Jesus Mount Olivet discourse bridges between the Book of Daniel and Revelation.

  9. 3 ½ Year Christian Tribulation Period6 seals opened – Rev 6 = 6 notable features Jesus mentions: Matt 24:7-14and Luke 21:10-19

  10. Rev 6:1And 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. Christ opens the 1st seal accompanied by what sounded like thunder. Thunder symbolizes the coming storm -   the approaching judgment on all nations known as terrible Day of the Lord (see reference chart) when 7th seal is opened and God’s pure wrath without mixture is poured out on the earth. However, the great 3 ½ year Christian tribulation period is a time immediately after the rapture that is wrath mixed with grace. The Church age has not ended yet. God is still dealing with the Church left behind and out of her will come many tribulation martyrs for Christ. (seeRev 4 subject oflightenings and thunders) where I talk of two types of judgments following the rapture. Also Rev 12 that judgment will begin at the house of God (Church).

  11. Rev 6:1And 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. Beasts should be translated ‘Living Ones’. They represent a group of Christians in heaven around the throne that appear to lead in worship and praise and distinct from the group identified with the 24 elders who also represent Christians from every nation, tongue, tribe, kindred around the throne. (SeeRev 4 for complete review on 4 living ones and 24 elders around the throne). Click toenlargeimage

  12. Rev 6:1And 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. When Jesus opens the seal, one of the 4 living ones has been given instructions to execute as an administrator. It is clear then that within the raptured Saints represented by the 4 living ones will be sub-groups assigned to the different seals opened. This sub-group of Saints will then tell another sub group within the 4 horsemen as we will see in the next verse Rev 6:2. They say, come and see – that is come and see what instructions I am going to give you. Revelation 6:2And 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.

  13. Revelation 6:2And 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. Christ opens the 1st seal. One of the 4 Living one gives the orders to 1 of the 4 horsemen. He descends riding a white horse toward earth to carry out his orders

  14. Revelation 6:2And 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 rider of the white horse cannot be Antichrist. The white horse is sent from God’s throne where Christ opens the 1st seal The rider of the white horse has been one of the most misinterpreted verses in Book of Revelation. Most commentaries make the rider of the white horse Antichrist yet the three remaining riders (red, black, pale) are anonymous. The riders of the horsemen are sent out from heaven where God’s throne is, where Jesus opens the seals, and where 4 living ones and 24 elders are. Antichrist is not sent down from heaven. We already saw in the study of raptureRev 12:3,4 and Daniel 7:8-11 that Antichrist is already in power ruling before the rapture his formed empire (see Rev 12 study).

  15. Revelation 6:2And 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 4 living ones around the throne represent Christians (seeRev 4) giving orders they receive from Christ their Chief commander. The 4 horsemen are Christians leaving God’s throne going into battle executing these orders As Christ opens each of the four seals, He gives instructions to one of the 4 living ones. As administrators they give the 4 horsemen their battle orders. These 4 horsemen are identified by standard Biblical rules of interpretation. Number 4 has to do with the earth (see reference chart). The nature of their work is denoted by the color of the horse and what is said about the rider. They represent a large group of raptured Christians that leave God’s throne and as mighty horses in battle and strength carry out their orders without turning to the right or left. On the earth Antichrist is cursing God and the

  16. Revelation 6:2And 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. raptured Saints and seeking to kill worldwide anyone that turns to Christ and does not receive his mark. Revelation 13:6,7 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. God is responding to this tough talk of Antichrist the Beast. God has the advantage. Christ and His raptured Church are now the new powers of the air. The raptured Christians have immortal and incorruptible bodies just like Christ. The devil is wreaking havoc on the Church left behind. Those that are saved are our brothers and sisters in Christ and many are being killed. Right now, Christ’s first priority and the raptured Saints will be to do all that is in their power to help them

  17. Revelation 6:2And 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. Conquering souls with the Word of God (bow) Leaves Throne Room with crown and bow The Church on earth is in hiding. Saints being chased down like dogs. Beast and false prophet are killing as many as confess Christ and receive not the mark of the beast. No Christian television, radio, public, meetings, tent revivals. But God’s love, mercy, grace acts first before judgment. God sends His immortal, glorified, incorruptible Saints – His horsemen into battle in a war like gallop to do a work of righteousness. Taking the Word of God (bow) to preach the Gospel (Word) to all nations, conquering souls as conquerors.

  18. Habakkuk was a poet. He saw the full effect of the 6 seals opened up in heaven by Christ and their full effect on the nations, nature, Church left behind. Habakkuk mentions God’s horsemen and chariots (vs 8) going forth for the salvation of his people with his anointed (vs 13);1st seal: Rider with the bow. At the same time nuclear war breaks out, global warming is greatly accelerated, Habakkuk talks of the earth being cleaved with rivers, the seas angry, and tidal waves and earthquakes (Hab 3:10). The sun and moon are still one minute and then flee from their positions (Hab 3:11) which is fulfilled when the 6th seal is opened (Rev 6:12). Notice vs 8 (God’s displease, anger, wrath, grace). God said (vs 9) that His bow (His Word) that these judgments were made clear according to the oaths of the tribes –that is-through the O.T. prophets that came from them. Hab 3:14 reads the nations goal was to scatter me (Habakkuk way of referring to the Church which was a mystery in the O.T.), to devour the poor (persecuted Christians) secretly (rigged courts and death to Christians). God’s whole purpose in these 6 seals is to help the Church left behind after the rapture alive as long as He can to save souls and yet be judging the nations. We will see that length of time is 3 ½ years. Then the Church age ends. No more grace but God’s glittering spear (vs 11) - 7 year terrible Day of the Lord (7th seal). See reference chart

  19. Conquering souls with the Word of God (bow) Leaves Throne Room with crown and bow Another clear confirmation of the work of the white horse of Rev 6isRev 14.Rev 14 is earth’s view of the Saints sent from God’s throne as horsemen sent into battle. In Rev 14:6-10 those on the earth are looking up in the sky and seeing the raptured immortal Saints flying over the earth preaching, prophesying, and given warnings. Revelation 14:6-10 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. 8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

  20. Conquering souls with the Word of God (bow) Leaves Throne Room with crown and bow 9 And the 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, 10 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: Remember, Revelation uses the word angel to refer to saintsin several places (seeRev 4 study). The word ‘angel’ denotes the office of a messenger. Here in Rev 14 Saints are called angels because they are messengers of God. Angels were not given the commission to preach the everlasting Gospel to the world. This was given to the Church. Devil won’t allow it on earth but he can’t stop the raptured Church in heaven from doing it. This is Christ’s first priority by opening the 1st seal and sending the horsemen into battle with the bow in his hand (Word of God) going forth conquering and to conquer souls for Christ showing grace to the Church left behind.

  21. Conquering souls with the Word of God (bow) Leaves Throne Room with crown and bow Rev 14 like Rev 12 and 13 connect with 3 ½ yr Christian tribulation but is a fill in chapter (see chart below). It fills in very important details not mentioned in Rev 12 and Rev 13 so the narrative of these chapters are not broken. This is standard prophetic practice used in both O.T. and N.T. chapters. Rev 14 also serves to transition between the 3 ½ Christian tribulation of grace mixed with wrath (timeframe 4 in chart – 6 seals) which now ends also ending the Church age and the terrible Day of the Lord (7th seal – timeframe 5) which is pure wrath from God (see reference chart)

  22. Conquering souls with the Word of God (bow) Leaves Throne Room with crown and bow The last scripure before I discuss the opening of the 2nd seal is what Peter said on the Day of Pentecost. Pentecost is called the birthday of the Church. Acts 2 tells us the Holy Spirit came with the sound of a rushing mighty wind into the upper room and baptized the 120 Jews with the Holy Ghost, fire , and power.This outpouring on the Jews only Peter said would happen to all flesh (Jews, Gentiles, all ethnic backgrounds) at the end of the Church age. Here is what Peter said Acts 2:17-21 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

  23. Luke 21:12-19 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.19 In your patience possess ye your souls. Jesus talked of the effects of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the tribulation saints (Luke 21:12-19). They would be able to stand before kings and nations and God will give them boldness and what words to speak. When Jesus says in vs 12 before all these things (wars, famines, earthquakes, etc), that is, before even the 6 seals are opened persecution of the Church has begun. This would be immediately after the rapture. This is why in Rev 12:6 as soon as the unsaved church left behind (symbolized by the woman in Rev 12) she now flees for her life.

  24. Matthew 24:7-14 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 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. 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. It is very important to now that in Matt 24:7-14 Jesus ends the Christian tribulation period with these words ‘and then shall the end come’. The disciples originally asked Jesus what are the signs of the end of the age. Jesus answered their question exactly and took it to be the end of the Church age. The rapture takes place right before Matt 24:7but the unsaved Church left behind continues the Church age for another 3 1/2 years. God deals with her and out of her will come a great many tribulation martyrs. Also souls saved that endured until the end of the age without being killed. God then seals them (Rev 7) in their foreheads to protect them from the judgments of the terrible Day of the Lord (7th seal). For a completestudy of Matt 24 and Luke 24 Olivet discouse on the end of the ageand signs of His coming click here. See reference chart

  25. Revelation 6:3,4 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. Christ opens the 2nd seal. One of the 4 Living one gives the orders to 1 of the 4 horsemen. He descends riding a red horse toward earth to carry out his orders

  26. Revelation 6:3,4 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 first horsemen was grace. The raptured immortal,incorruptible, glorified Saints sent into all the world preachingthe Gospel, prophesying judgments, and warning of the approachingDay of the Lord not grace but pure wrath. Before any seals are opened

  27. Revelation 6:3,4 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. Jesus tells us Christian believers will be arrested, persecuted, brought before kings and rulers for His name sake. They would be betrayed by parents, brethren, kinfolks and friends, and be hated by all nations for His name sake – that is – for believer in Christ as Savior (Lu 12:12-19). The 2nd, 3rd, 4th horsemen sent from Gods throne connect with judgments that focus on Antichrist and his empire the most. God will use the sword, famine, and pestilence. God has done this numerous times in the Old Testament to accomplish His divine purpose. Jeremiah 14:12When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, the famine, and by the pestilence.

  28. Jeremiah 21:9 He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey. Jeremiah 24:10 And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers. Ezekiel 5:12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them. Ezekiel 5:17 So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee; and I will bring the sword upon thee. I the LORD have spoken it. Ezekiel 6:12 He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them. Ezekiel 7:15 The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die with the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.

  29. The sword, famine, pestilence are measured judgments to accomplish two things. God’s measured fury against evil in the world w/ special focus on Antichrist’s Empire in a time of wrath mixed with grace. Second reason is the help the trib Church stay alive as long as it can to save the most souls possible. Those martyred for Christ will be resurrected at the end of the 3 ½ year tribulation period. Those that are not killed but endure to the end of trib period ( end of Church age) will be sealed by God (Rev 7) and protected from judgments of 7 year Day of the Lord(7th seal trumpet /vial judgments) (see chart above and reference chart).

  30. Revelation 6:3,4 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 second horsemen takes peace from the earth. One would think that the rapture took peace from the earth. Christians disappearing from cars, trains, planes, jobs, homes,worldwide. Evidently it did not. This is because it did not cause any wars between nations. Two, Satan through the rise of Antichrist before the rapture had deceived the whole world. Antichrist came to power with all of Satan’s power, lying signs and wonders. They came right from outer space where Satan has his throne. The whole world by the time of the rapture will believe in UFO’S, ET’S, earth watched over by a canopy of gods far superior to us and our technology. Antichrist’s

  31. Will exalt his new age god while the ascended masters guide our evolution. One new age channeler (person whom demon spirits speak through but they call guides from other galaxies) says that Christians are not ready for the new world order when it comes. The only ones ready would be those that have the Christ consciousness. They say true Christians would one day be caught up in the twinkling of a eye to starships (UFO’S) and transported to another dimension so not to hold back earth’s entrance into the age of Aquarius – peace, love, harmony between mankind. They say Christians are old fashioned and holding on to the age of Pisces (fish age) which is 2000 years old. New agers teach Christ is a consciousness. That Jesus Christ was a man having the Christ consciousness back then when the gods spoke to mankind. But now, that earth is moving from one Zodiac sign to another (happens about every 2000 years) , from sign of the fish Pisces to age of Aquarius, the ascended master send a newage Christ – a great teacher that will lead us into our inherent godhood. So the rapture will be explained away as a necessary cleansing for the new world order, new age religion, new age Christ (seebook of DanielFor the pre-rapture rise of Antichrist, his massive deception, lying signs and wonders.

  32. Revelation 6:3,4 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. We see then that after the rapture and after the first seal is opened and the whole world hears the Gospel that 2nd horsemen takes peace from the earth then comes sudden destruction. 1 Thessalonians 5:2,3 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night 3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. Paul talking about the Day of the Lord coming which immediately follows the 3 ½ year trib period talks of

  33. destruction coming as labor pains upon a woman, and the world will not escape. In other words, when peace is takenfrom the world and war breaks out, followed by famine, pestilence, earthquakes, it’s going to get a whole lot worse. That’s because the terible Day of the Lord that lasts 7 years starts immediately after the 3 ½ year trib period (see chart). This perfectly agrees with what Jesus said. Jesus said the wars, famines, pestilences were only the beginnings of sorrows, it is going to get a whole lot worse. Matthew 24:7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

  34. Do not confuse wars of 2nd seal with what Jesus said inMatt 24 or Luke 21. Jesus said you shall hear ofwars and rumors of wars. Those wars connect with the rise of Antichrist before therapture. When Jesus said later that Kingdom will beKingdom, nation against nation, this is world war four (WW4) and these connect with 2nd seal.

  35. Wars and rumors ofwars Gray area – extent of Antichrist’s empire Pre-rapture map shows wars connected with rise of Anti- christ (click map for scrip- tures). Trib map shows full extant of Antichrist’s Empire the 4 horsemen focus on. Any one of those nations taken by force (Iran, Iraq, parts of Russia, etc.)could start ww4. Rider of 2nd seal knows. On earth, blood,fire, pillars of smoke, fearful sights, great signs in heaven, Spirit poured out (Acts 2:17-21)

  36. Christ opens the 2 seal, gives instructions to one of the living ones who in turn gives orders to the horsemen and they go into battle and take peace from the earth. When this happens and as we quoted 1 Thess 5:23 destruction shall come suddenly, WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ANTICHRIST. Scripture tells us HE RECEIVES A DEADLY WOUND BY A SWORD (weapon) yet he comes back to life. He is the same person and yet scripture says he will become the son of perdition of man, man of sin revealed. This can only happen if Satan incarnates him. And this is exactly what happens.

  37. After the rapture Michael and his angels fight against Satan and his angels (see Rev 12 study) Satan and his angels are defeated and cast down to the earth. God will then give Antichrist this deadly wound when God takes peace from the earth during the 2nd seal. Satan who has been cast down to earth has no choice but to incarnate him. Satan wants maintain control of the earth and above all, be worshipped as God. Antichrist, his main man has been admired worldwide. Everybody remembers the wars that brought him great admiration and worship when outer space (where Satan and his angels dwelt before the rapture – see Book of Daniel) came down to earth with great signs and lying wonders defeating Antichrist’s enemies for him. They made themselves out to be sent from the ascended masters to bring about peace, harmony and a new world order, and a new age Christ. But first, they had to make war because the transgressors that are threatening the world with biological, chemical, nuclear weapons of mad destruction must be defeated. Yes, outer space chose Antichrist to be their ambassador on earth and contact with different civilizations were now made. Yet it is all a massive deception of Satan put on mankind. We Rev 12:7 that when Satan and his angels are cast down to earth

  38. right after the rapture, that they had already deceived the whole world. Now, Satan can take over this man’s soul and body. Antichrist already has an empire. Antichrist is already in control of the economy. All Satan has to do now his seemingly bring him back from the dead by incarnating him. Now Satan has a worldwide visible presence and a platform to try and take complete control over the whole world. Notice Rev 13:3,4 the whole world when they worship the beast they worship the dragon also. Also notice they worship the beast for his ability to make war. If this is the case he must have demonstrated it. This happened when he came to power before the rapture (seebook of Daniel menu) Revelation 13:3,4And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? Revelation 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

  39. If Antichrist received a deadly wound and did live, where was he wounded. The answer is a head wound and this was prophesized to Satan by God Himself the day that Adam and Eve fell. God also told the Satan that He would give the seed of the woman (Christ) a bruised heel. That happened at the cross. For a full study of Gen 3:15 click here. Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. If their ever was a person that went on and on in his trespasses that deserved a head wound it is Antichrist and Satan. Psalms 68:21 But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses. Hab 3:13 that made reference to the horsemen begin anointed and going forth for the salvation of the people (see1st seal study) during the 3 ½ year Christian trib period had this also to say. Habakkuk 3:13Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah.

  40. The house of the wicked is Antichrist’s empire. God singled him out and gave him a head wound and allows Satan to incarnates him and bring him back to life. Habakkuk 3:13Thou wentest forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah. We have this description of Antichrist in Zechariah. Zechariah 11:17Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.

  41. 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. 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. Christ opens the 3nd seal. One of the 4 Living one gives the orders to 1 of the 4 horsemen. He descends riding a black horse toward earth to carry out his orders

  42. 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. 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.

  43. 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. 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. First , there was the rapture, which caused chaos on theearth but did not take peace from the earth. The secondhorseman took peace from the earth and Kingdom andagainst, Kingdom took place. Fearful sights of atomic warfareand great pillars of smoke (see second seal). Famine is a natural result of warfare of the 2nd seal. The black horsemen does not cause the famine, He is an horsemen administrator, weighing who gets food and how much. The war has effected the whole economy. Brought trade to its knees. There is not only mass starvation but mass stealing. Rev 13 says that theAntichrist who had received a deadly wound during the 2nd.

  44. seal (see second seal) and comes back to life, allows no one to buy or sell except they have the mark of the beast. We readin Rev 13:16,17 Revelation 13:16,17 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. At the same time we still have the raptured saints flying overhead from the first seal preaching the everlasting Gospel and also warning those on the earth not to receive the mark. If they do they will experience the full wrath of God yet to come in the 7 year terrible Day of the Lord (7th seal with its 7 trumpet/vial judgments). Revelation 14:9-12 And the 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, 10 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

  45. presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. 12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. The raptured Christians sent out when the 3rd seal is opened are carefully watching and weighing the extent of the famine noted by the scale in their hands.

  46. 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. 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. As the raptured Saints that make up the black horsemen are given their orders to execute on earth, one of the 4 living ones says ‘A measure of wheat for a penny’ and ‘three measures of barley for a penny’ and see to it that theoil and wine is not hurt. The Living one is giving us insight into instructions he was told to give the black horsemen. From these instructions you can see that God put a limitation on the famine and not to hurt oil and wine by charging to much because it needed for the hurting and wounded.

  47. A measure of wheat for a penny The word ‘measure’ is a unit of measure for dry things, about an eighth of a bushel. An eighth of a bushel will cost a penny. This is not the American penny. From Jesus parable we see that a penny equates to a whole days wage. Matthew 20:1,2 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. 2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard. three measures of barley for a penny Translates into 3/8th’s of a bushel for a whole days wage. and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine In other words, the commission to the Saints of the blackhorse was to oversee that oil and wine prices were notoverinflated by greed among sellers. A days wage could only buy so much but keep it fair from price gouging. Oil and wineas medicine was important for the wounded, the dying, hurting Luke 10:34And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

  48. Revelation 6:7,8 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. Christ opens the 4th seal. One of the 4 Living one gives the orders to 1 of the 4 horsemen. He descends riding a pale horse toward earth to carry out his orders
