THE BLACK HORSE
The black horse of the apocalyse designates famine with world wide economic disruptions, partly because of the afore mentioned civil wars. Food will be a scarcity. Inflation will cause the price of food to go up 10 times the normal price. Husbands and wives will sruggle to feed their families.
Here is an amazing revelatory unveiling we are given by the text itself.
The black Horse and Rider are directed to protect and preserve the oil and wine.
These could represent the areas of protection for christians and nations that truly adher to the Judeo-christian belief system. The annointing with oil and the drinking of the fruit of the vine were instituted by the Master Himself as living determinates in the remembrance of Him, til He
victoriously returns to take full control of planet earth.
Jesus said that after His resurrection; an obomination that makes desolate would occur to the jewish nation; and the the Jewish temple and the beloved city of Jerusalem. The temple would be torn down and the city made a desolate wilderness.
His exact prophecy was fulfilled in a.d. 70 when the Romans and their prince Titus ; son of Vaspasian, who was called back to Rome to become Ceasar; invaded and reluctantly destroyed the temple and the city.
Flavius Josephus, a jewish historian at the time of the
destruction , records the events in graphic detail.
I say reluctantly, because Titus desired to have the city and the temple as his own trophy of war.
However, insurrections and
false Messiahs, stating that God would save the temple and the city, entrenched themselves with in the temple and with their followers through out the city, therefore, the situation demanded the afore mentioned , burning of temple and city.
As the writer of old said,. "woe unto the inhabitants of the earth when the BLACK HORSE AND RIDER gallops across the world scene.
And then, in concurrent finality, another conspiuous entry appears, and now galloping on the scene is the final horse of the 4 horsemen; to wit; the PALE GREEN HORSE AND RIDER!!!!!
THE PALE GREEN HORSE
The interpretation of the Green Rider is given by the proclamation itself. The name on the rider is death. Indeed, this horse's color was pale green like that of a corpse.
Hence, death and the grave (hades), will follow in the aftermath of his galloping hoofbeats.
Again, with the concurrence of the other stampeding horses, one fourth of the inhabitants of the earth will be killed, as a result of the wars, the famines, and wild animals.
Finally I think we have an understanding of the ( wild animals), that are a part of the devastation of this corpse like horse.
There is a contemporary realization that has emerged from the scientific community, that deadly virus's are coming from the animal world, that could devastate
huge, significant, and numerically astounding amounts of the population of the earth.
So then, what are we to conclude from the revelatory galloping of the Four Horsemen. They are in fact, the failure of man to recognise and incorporate the truths of the Judeo-- Christian covenants into their governments and families, and individuals.
It is the collective responsability of the world to veiw the cross of Christ at Calvary as the tool of the Heavenly Father to reconcile all men to Him. Also to be gathered to the loving Bosom and the House of our Father.
REMEMBER THIS, MAN FAILS BUT GOD MAKES A WAY.
But " take heart"; peoples of the earth ; - For another " rider of victory " is thundering toward us, who will destroy the works of the four horsemen, and will save planet earth from total innihilation.
He flashes upon earth as lightning. THIS RIDER IS CALLED FAITHFUL AND TRUE. HIS EYES ARE LIKE BLAZING FIRE AND ON HIS HEAD ARE MANY CROWNS. HE IS DRESSED IN A ROBE DIPPED IN BLOOD, AND HIS NAME IS THE WORD OF GOD.
He will rule the next age with the dicipline of a rod of iron.
On His robe and thigh He has the name written; KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
MESSIAH JESUS, HAS RETURNED TO END THIS FAILING AGE AND TO USHER IN A NEW GLORIOUS AGE .
EVEN SO, COME QUICKLY LORD JESUS.
