4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse The last book of the Bible-Revelation, has intrigued and terrified many a reader in the last 2,000 years or so since it was penned. If you don't like religious writings I suggest you check out of this one. I wrote this not to scare anyone but rather to inform those who care to know, the true meaning of this enigmatic write. (For reference purposes please see Revelation chapter 6; Matthew chapter 24; and Luke chapter 21.) In Revelation 1:1-3, we see that Jesus Christ is the one who gave this vision to the Apostle John, so that all would know how future events would unfold, and would give his faithful (Christians) hope for the future. (see verse 3 which shows that those who read this book of prophecy could be happy even during these turbulent times) In Revelation chapter 6 we see described the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse. First the rider on the white horse (evidently Jesus Christ) Second is described a rider of a fiery (red) colored horse.(World war) Third is described a rider on a black horse. (World wide famine) Fourth is described a rider on a pale colored horse. (War, Famine and Pestilence) Each of these horsemen are symbols of what is foretold to occur in the period the Bible calls the "last days" or "end times". When a comparison is made between these parallel accounts (Revelation 6; Matthew 24; Luke 21) we can discern they are one and the same in meaning. They were all prophecies spoken by Jesus to his faithful followers as to what they could expect to happen before his second coming. They describe a period of time where Worldwide war, Famine Deadly plague and Great earthquakes would occur at an unprecedented (never before seen) scale. Those who choose to know, and understand, find hope (not fear) in these words of the book of Revelation. May these difficult times find you searching for understanding in God's Word the Bible. If you do read it, you will no doubt find comfort in knowing that these difficult times are what precedes, a wonderful new world, paradise restored here on earth under one government, God's Kingdom! See Rev21:3,4 April 21,2020 John Derek Hamilton
