Written by Yahusha's Student John ...
1 And I saw the Lamb open the FIRST SEAL of the scroll and I heard one of the four Living Creatures saying (with a voice like thunder), “COME AND SEE THIS!” 2 And I looked and saw a White Horse and He who sat on it was encircled with a crown and was holding a bow. And He surged forward with all power into the earth like a war-hero, overcoming and to conquer.
THIS RIDER IS YAHUSHA THE WORD,
GOING INTO THE WORLD!
THE SPIRIT AND WORD OF YAHUSHA GOES FORTH IN ALL POWER AS THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM (IN THE BOOK OF ACTS). REMEMBER YAHUSHA OPENS THIS FIRST SEAL RIGHT AFTER HIS ASCENSION TO THE FATHER'S THRONE. THE SPIRIT AND THE WORD WENT FORTH OVERCOMING AND TO CONQUER THROUGH HUMAN VESSELS.
3 And when He opened the SECOND SEAL, I heard the 2nd Living Creature saying, “COME CHECK THIS OUT!” 4 And a Fiery Red Horse raced out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that mankind should slay each other. And a great sword was given to him.
THIS RIDER IS THE SPIRIT OF WAR AND BLOODSHED! YAHUSHA PERMITS THESE THINGS TO ACT AS JUDGMENTS UPON A WICKED MANKIND. NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT HIS DECISION ! THE RED HORSE PROCEEDS AFTER THE WHITE HORSE - SO IF A NATION REJECTS YAHUSHA'S GOOD NEWS OF DELIVERANCE, THEN WAR AND CONFLICT USUALLY FOLLOW.
5 And when He opened the THIRD SEAL, I heard the third Living Creature say, “COME AND SEE THIS MATE!” And I looked and saw a Black Horse and he who sat on it was holding a pair of scales in His hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four Living Creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a day’s wage, and three quarts of barley for a day’s wage. And don't harm the oil and the wine.”
THIS RIDER IS THE SPIRIT OF FAMINE AND DEATH, USUALLY THE RESULT OF WAR & BLOODSHED.
7 And when the Lamb opened the FOURTH SEAL, I heard the voice of the fourth Living Creature saying, “DUDE ... YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!” 8 And I looked and saw a Green Horse. And He who sat on it had the name `Death', and the grave followed with him. And authority was given to him over a fourth of the earth’s population, to kill with the sword, and with hunger, and with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
THIS HORSE IS PALE, SICKLY, LIVID, GHASTLY, DEATHLY GREEN OR SICKLY LEPROUS YELLOW, THE COLOUR OF PUTRIFYING FLESH AND DISEASE. THE RIDER IS ACTUALLY NAMED AS DEATH - THE SPIRIT AND POWER OF PESTILENCE, PLAGUES AND DEADLY VIRUSES.
IN ZECHARIAH'S VISION YAHUAH SENDS 4 HORSES OF ALMOST IDENTICALLY DESCRIBED COLOURS AS THOSE JOHN DESCRIBES IN REVELATION, TO GO OUT AND PATROL THE EARTH AND TO PUNISH THOSE NATIONS WHO HAVE OPPRESSED HIS PEOPLE.
9 And when the Lamb opened the FIFTH SEAL, I saw (under the Altar) those who'd been killed/slain for guarding the Word of YAHUAH and for the witness which they held. (BEHAVING OBEDIENTLY TO HIS INSTRUCTIONS) 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “HOW LONG OUR MASTER, SET-APART AND TRUE, UNTIL YOU JUDGE AND AVENGE OUR BLOOD ON THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE EARTH?” 11 And there was given to each one a white robe, and they were told that they should wait a little while longer, until the rest of their brothers and sisters (who would be killed as they'd been) was completed.
THESE PEOPLE WERE LITERALLY PUT TO DEATH FOR THEIR BELIEF, BUT HOW MANY SCRIPTURES TELL US TO `PUT TO DEATH' OUR MEMBERS (STOP THE WORLDLY BEHAVIOURS COMING THROUGH US) TO OFFER OURSELVES AS LIVING SACRIFICES, KILLING THE FLESH WITH ALL IT'S PASSIONS AND INSATIABLE DESIRES - TO NOT FEAR THOSE WHO CAN MERELY KILL/SLAY OUR BODY, BUT TO FEAR THE ONE WHO CAN KILL BOTH BODY AND SPIRIT IN DESTRUCTION? SO SHOULD THIS `BEING SLAIN' BE DONE BY SOMEONE ELSE, OR SHOULD WE BE STARTING THE PROCESS OURSELVES?
"WHITE ROBE" POINTS TO THE RECEIVING OF THE RESURRECTED AND ESTEEMED BODY OF IMMORTALITY, JUST LIKE YAHUSHA'S BODY OF LIGHT, AT HIS SECOND COMING. THESE BEINGS UNDER THE ALTAR WILL BE CLOTHED WITH IMMORTALITY IN THE FIRST RESURRECTION, AT HIS COMING AGAIN. THE DEAD IN MESSIAH (THE CHOSEN AND OBEDIENT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME) WILL RISE FIRST, AND THEN THE LIVING BRIDE WILL BE TRANSFORMED TO JOIN THEM.
12 And I looked when He opened the SIXTH SEAL and saw a great earthquake came to be. And the sun became black as a sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood. 13 And the stars of the heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its unripe figs, being shaken by a strong wind. 14 And heaven departed like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great ones, and the rich ones, and the commanders, and the mighty, and every slave and every free one, hid themselves in the caves 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 sitting on the Throne (from the wrath of the Lamb) 17 because the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
THE SIXTH SEAL IS SIGNIFICANT OF A WORLDWIDE SHAKING OF THE EARTH AND THE HEAVENS, WITH WORLDWIDE SIGNS IN THE HEAVENLY BODIES, TELLING US THAT THE DAY OF WRATH IS AT HAND AND THE GREAT TRIBULATION OF PRESSURE IS ABOUT TO BEGIN. DON'T WE SEE ALL THESE SEALS AND SIGNS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW?
