The Four Horsemen of a modern apocalypse
In
the book of Revelation are described the four horsemen that will appear at the
end times. Now I'm not really one for believing that the end times are just
around the corner, this has happened so often in the history of Christianity.
However, if we look at the extraordinary events of today one could be forgiven
for believing that something is afoot. We have the fall of the West into
decadence of every kind, the rise of Islam throughout the world, the culture of
death with euthanasia and abortions riding roughshod over humanity. So who are
the four horsemen and how can their symbolism be applied to today?
The First Horseman on a
White Horse - Revelation 6:2 "I looked, and there before me was a white
horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a
conqueror bent on conquest.” This could represent the Antichrist, perhaps a
leader or a high ranking churchman who cloaks his misdeeds in fine sounding
speeches that sound so generous and yet he crushes all who oppose him.
The Second Horseman on a
Fiery Red Horse - Revelation 6:4 “Then
another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take
peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large
sword.” This could represent the war that the LGBT agendas are waging on the
innocent, especially the young, causing many to jeopardise their souls with
perverse lifestyles.
The Third Horseman on a
Black Horse - Revelation 6:5-6 “...and there before me was a black horse! Its
rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like
a voice among the four living creatures, saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a day's
wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil
and the wine!’ The Black Horse represents famine, the famine caused by wars and
the war the media wages on the truth. Famine of truth, the support the media
give to the nonsense of Islam and the famine that will follow their wars.
