1 THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF REVELATION There are numerous thoughts and commentaries regarding the four horses of Revelation 6. The Book itself, Revelation, means to reveal or an unveiling. It is written for those who study the text to understand without confusion. Thus those with ears to hear and eyes to see would find understanding and knowledge in the text. One does not need high forms of education to understand the word of God. What one does need is a relationship with God. You may have a close friend that you have spent time with. You often know what your friend is going to do in a situation prior to them doing it or perhaps the same with a son or daughter. Why, because you know them. To understand God’s word you first must get acquainted with God. It truly was not meant for all to know but for all to understand who study the text and seek God. Few commentaries are in total agreement and some are totally false teachings that Paul warned us about. It is not my intention to say this is so, or that is so. It is my intention to plant a seed. Everything else is between you and the Holy Spirit. The Revelation of Jesus Christ as shown to John. THE FOUR HORSES Prior to seeing the release of the Four Horses, (The first four of the seven seals) John saw the following vision: And I (John) saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. (Rev. 5: 1-5 KJV)

THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF REVELATION

There are numerous thoughts and commentaries regarding the four horses of Revelat ion 6. The Book i tself , Revelat ion, means to reveal or an unveil ing. It is writ ten for those who study the text to understand without confusion. Thus those with ears to hear and eyes to see would f ind understanding and knowledge in the text. One does not need high forms of education to understand the word of God. What one does need is a relat ionship with God. You may have a close fr iend that you have spent t ime with. You often know what your fr iend is going to do in a si tuation prior to them doing i t or perhaps the same with a son or daughter. Why, because you know them. To understand God’s word you f irst must get acquainted with God. It truly was not meant for al l to know but for al l to understand who study the text and seek God. Few commentaries are in total agreement and some are total ly false teachings that Paul warned us about. It is not my intention to say this is so, or that is so. It is my intention to plant a seed. Everything else is between you and the Holy Spiri t . The Revelat ion of Jesus Christ as shown to John. THE FOUR HORSES Prior to seeing the release of the Four Horses, (The f irst four of the seven seals) John saw the following vision: And I (John) saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book writ ten within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders sai th unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tr ibe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. (Rev. 5: 1-5 KJV)

  2  

Who steps up that is the only one worthy? It is Jesus. No one else was found worthy to open the seals or to even look thereon furthermore who else could go to the right hand of the almighty “I AM”. This is extremely important to understand because in Revelat ion 6, i t is Jesus who opens the seven seals. This is not to say Jesus is behind what is to take place only that he al lows Satin and ungodly men to behave as they choose. Remember the Book of Job, where God al lowed Satin to basical ly do as he chose with Job but not ki l l him. Regarding the four horses, you wil l see how God al lows evi l to unfold however uses evi l to bring forth and fulf i l l his overal l plan. The f irst 4 seals in Revelat ion 6 are about 4 unique horses. To help us understand lets go to the Old Testament. In many ways most of Revelat ion can be found in the Old Testament prophecy thus lets see what we can f ind regarding horses/spiri ts . And I (Zechariah) turned, and l i f ted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. In the f irst chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot gris led and bay horses. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my Lord? And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spiri ts of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of al l the earth. The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country. And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and I said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth. Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spiri t in the north country (Zech 6: 1-8 KJV) The Bible has made i t clear that a horse can be symbolic of a spiri t as stated above (These are the four spiri ts of the heavens which go forth from standing before the Lord of al l the earth) . Thus the 4 horses of Revelat ion 6 could represent a type of

  3  

spiri t . Do not forget that the black horse goes to the north country for we wil l see this lat ter in our study. Prior to start ing this study regarding the term the “The Four Horsemen” we need to clarify what a horse represents from a Biblical perspective. Zech 6: 1-8, tel ls us a horse is a type of spiri t , however a biblical symbolic horse also represents power. In biblical t imes a horse equaled power. Did Jesus ride into town on a horse? No, because a horse represents earthly power. Often in the Bible and in this case a horse is synonymous with power, a lot of power. It st i l l is today. Have you ever been around some gear heads and hearing talk as; how many horses is she, 454 pushing 600 horses, stock 327 with 300 horse, etc. If you haven’t stop in at one of the local car shows in your area this summer. This is common talk. HORSEPOWER! Where does the word come from? Prior the combustion and steam engine that’s what power was. Horses! This is where many have gotten confused. Referring to the f irst verses of Revelat ion 6 as “The Four Horsemen” is some what misleading. It ’s about POWER, Spiri tual Power. Four specif ic forms of power. Prior to continuation we need to verify what has been stated above. Forces of War: Throughout the course of Biblical history, horses were the mounts of kings, conquerors, princes and soldiers. Riding a horse implied war, doom and victory. Men of peace did not r ide horses but rode donkeys or drove oxen. Horses were such a symbol of army strength in Bible t imes God charged the Israeli te Kings not to keep many horses. The Lord did not want the Israeli tes to trust in their resources of power, but he wanted them to rely on Himself for deliverance and victory from their enemies. Ps 20: 7 (NIV) Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. Dt 17: 16a (NIV) The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself . Ps 33: 17 (NIV) A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite al l i ts great strength i t cannot save.

  4  

Isa 31: 1 (NIV) Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the mult i tude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel , or seek help from the Lord. Horses were etched into the Hebraic mindset early on as representing the worldly power of Egypt and i ts armies. There are many examples in the Bible where a horse represents power. Hopefully at this point we can move away from the idea of horsemen and focus on the symbolism of the horse. This symbolism (horse) as we found in the Old Testament represents POWER, also a type of Spiri t , which can lead to forms of government, conquerors, famine, pest i lence, death and war. If we start the study with symbolical meanings of the text we should continue throughout the study with symbolism and not take things l i teral ly. Most al l prophecy is symbolical . John was in prison physical ly when he recorded what was shown to him that resulted with the book of Revelat ion. John probably did not understand what the Four Horses of Revelat ion were. John simply recorded what was shown to him. We are given characterist ics of each horse, thus al lowing us to verify and discern the probabil i ty of our assumptions. Each horse/POWER, must f i t i ts characterist ics. We cannot go off on a tangent thinking we have an explanation for one, but not the other. Very much l ike a puzzle, al l pieces must f i t or i t is not complete or, possibly not correct. Our Fathers Word often teaches with opposites, l ight verses dark etc. We might also uti l ize this thought process when we continue this study. Ezekiel 14: 12-23 is also helpful when studying Revelat ion chapter 6 for i t s tates: God speaking (when a land sins against me by acting fai thlessly, and I stretch out my hand against i t , and break i ts staff of bread and send famine upon it , and cut off from it man and beast. Verse 21: How much more when I send upon Jerusalem my four sore acts of judgment.

  5  

Are the four sore acts of judgment synonymous with the four horses of Revelat ion 6? Maybe, we should also be knowledgeable regarding anytime God stretches out his arm or hand i t usually is referring to Jesus. Jesus is God’s r ight hand prophetical ly thus matching Revelat ion 6 when Jesus opens the seals. Many rel igious sectors wil l not be able to accept the prophecy regarding the white horse in Revelation 6. However we must remember prior to going forward in this study that the Pharisees in Jesus t ime were very rel igious. They read the Bible daily however Jesus cal led them on the carpet many t imes. Jesus stated that a tax collector would enter into the kingdom of heaven before some of the rel igious Pharisees would. Jesus and the Apostles warned us continually throughout the New Testament regarding false teachings. Look at the 7 churches noted in Revelat ion, what Jesus found against them often pertained to false teachings. In Revelat ion chapter 2: 9 i t clearly states there wil l be tr ibulat ion even in the church. We know from history that rel igious sectors have persecuted the spiri tual church sense i ts inception, (Jesus t ime). Mill ions have died in the name of rel igion. The inquisi t ion kil led mil l ions of people in the name of rel igion. Do not read over what Jesus stated in the f irst verses of Revelat ion (what must soon take place) these things were to soon take place prior his return. Thus we should be able to see prophecy unfolding as stated (soon) after Jesus made this statement. If we are in fact in the end of days we should be able to see the signs. There are numerous books about the end t imes and the world coming to an end. Be very careful when reading such teachings. If i ts not mentioned in the Old Testament i ts probably not true. The best tool for understanding prophecy is the Bible i tself . Luke 17: 26-30 And as i t was in the days of Noah so shall i t be also in the days of the Son of man. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, unti l the day

  6  

that Noah entered into the ark, and the f lood came and destroyed them all . 28 Likewise also as i t was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought they sold, they planted, they builded; 29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained f ire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all . 30 Even thus shall i t be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. People wil l be l iving their l ives just as they did the day before and the day before and the day before right up unti l the return of Jesus. Just as they did in the days of Noah and Lot, they l ived the same as any other day right up to when the rain and f ire fel l from heaven. Verse (29) above brings this forth by stat ing “ the same day”. However, when HE does come back, You’l l know it ! No mistaken i t , missing out, over sleeping, etc. I highly doubt that HE wil l be the hippie Jesus (peace love dove) that some might be thinking of. Jesus is coming back to take back what is r ightful ly His. He wil l crush the Serpents head that now is in control of this world. Get ready for Kick Butt l ike you have never seen before. Ephesians 6:12, For we wrest le not against f lesh and blood but against principali t ies against powers against the rulers of the darkness of this world against spiri tual wickedness in high places. (KJV) Throughout this study do not forget (against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this world spiri tual wickedness) On with the study.

JESUS BREAKS THE FIRST OF THE SEVEN SEALS I looked up and saw a white horse standing there. Its r ider carried a bow, and a crown was placed on his head. He rode out to win many batt les and gain the victory. Rev 6: 2 (NLT) We have learned thus far from the Old Testament a horse represents POWER a type of Spiri t symbolical ly, which can lead to types of government, conquerors, etc. We are looking for a worldly power, symbolical ly white, out of al l the colors white needs to be dominant. We need to f ind a bow and a crown on i ts head. This verse specif ical ly stated male? Male dominance? He rides out to win many batt les and gain victory. As identif ied prior, this power should be easi ly identif ied worldwide if we are uti l iz ing the Old Testament as part of our study Zech 6: 1-8 “ for this spiri t walked to a fro throughout the earth.” Global influence with global intentions One minded spiri t , my way or the highway. Symbolical ly white. Extremely powerful Wins batt les however does not have arrows in i ts bow. Wields no tradit ional weapons of war however gains victory. Possibly male dominated. A mind set different than the other horses or maybe opposite. Take yourself to the heaven’s looking down on earth; do not stand in the trees looking for the forest .

  8  

DOMINANT COLOR MUST BE WHITE The early Christ ian church adopted the Roman symbolism of white as the color of purity, sacrif ice and virtue. I t became the color worn by priests during mass, the color worn by monks of the Cistercian order, and, under Pope Pius V, a former monk of the Dominican order, It became the off icial color worn by the Pope himself . Everything is White, even the transportat ion.

  9  

Okay, i f the Pope had a horse what color would i t be J

MALE DOMINANCE

WORLD INFLUENCE AND POWER The Vatican consti tutes the central authority over the church with roughly one bil l ion adherents. As such, i t exerts considerable moral influence among Roman Catholics, in part icular, and Christ ians, general ly. The Vatican has diplomatic relat ions with 172 countries - - more than the United States.

  10  

At t imes, the Pope wil l be outspoken on issues with clear poli t ical implicat ions. We saw this with Pope John Paul II’s statements and actions in relat ion to Poland and other East European nations before the fal l of communism. Many give credit to the Pope and Reagan for the fal l of communism. Ever seen a picture of Vatican City, Extremely Powerful.

  11  

  12  

The following paragraph was taken from the catholic exchange found online: What basic conclusions can be drawn from all this about the scope of papal power? In short, there is no question that the pope wields tremendous authority, but at the same t ime, his power does have very definite l imits. While nobody on earth may overrule him, he certainly does answer to someone higher than he is .

  13  

CARRY’S A BOW No arrows are mentioned in the bow? The bow wields no tradit ional weapons of war, but yet r ides out to win many batt les, and gain victory. Could this be the crosier? Some crosiers are actually bowed!

A CROWN WAS PLACED ON HIS HEAD Google: Images of Pope crowns, there is to many to l is t here, however we have provided a few examples:

  14  

  15  

  16  

Where’s a crown even today

  17  

Wins batt les however does not have an arrow in i ts bow!

  18  

Global power with global intentions:

Wields no tradit ional Weapons of War!

  19  

Not everyone who cal ls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ wil l enter the kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the wil l of my Father in heaven wil l enter. On judgment day many wil l say to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name. But I wil l reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’ Mat 7: 21-23 (NLT) Pope John Paul II traveled the world to build bridges to al l non-Christ ian rel igions. In a speech he said, “Christ ians and Muslims, we meet one another in fai th in the one God…and strive to put into practice …the teachings of our respective holy books. Catholicism strategy is to bring ALL religions under the power and influence of the papacy on the basis of unity, but is this God’s intentions? It is not just Catholicism, i ts al l Christ ian denominations under the umbrella of Catholicism. Catholicism is symbolical because i t is known as the mother church. If the White Horse is Catholicism it represents the corruption in al l Christ ian Denominations, thus al igning with Mat 7: 21-23 where i t s tates many wil l say! Wake up, this does not say some or a few, i t s tates many!! Yes, many wil l be saved, however as stated above

  20  

many won’t be saved that think they are. Your salvat ion is pending on you, not a priest or minster. Mat 7: 21-23, is very clear “Only those who actually do the wil l of my Father in heaven wil l enter .” Thus i t real ly does not matter i f you are Catholic or any other Christ ian Denomination. The Bible is clear, “only those who actually do the wil l of my Father”, the word actually brings forth that some wil l look as i f they are doing the work of the Father, but actually are not. Could the f irst seal be Catholicism? If so this seal has been open for sometime. So far al l the pieces of the puzzle f i t .

Catholicism

  21  

JESUS BREAKS THE SECOND OF THE SEVEN SEALS

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 kil l one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. Rev 6: 4 (KJV) Then another horse appeared, a red one. Its r ider was given a mighty sword and the authority to take peace from the earth. And there was war and slaughter everywhere. Rev 6: 4 (NLT) We have learned thus far from the Old Testament a horse represents POWER, type of Spiri t symbolical ly, judgment that can lead to types of government, conquerors, etc. We are looking for a great POWER, symbolical ly red, out of al l the colors red needs to be dominant. We need to look for a mighty sword (army) or (mil i tary). This power wil l take peace from the earth. This power wil l invade peaceful nations and countries. Human tragedy, war and slaughter everywhere. A power that is hosti le to i ts own people. As identif ied prior, this power should be easi ly identif ied worldwide if we are uti l iz ing the Old Testament as part of our study for these spiri ts walked to and fro throughout the earth. Zech 6: 1-8 A great global power, Global influence with global intentions, A mighty war machine, One minded spiri t , my way or the highway. It may over power peaceful nations. Different than the other horses, Extremely cruel, war and slaughter everywhere, It wil l ki l l i ts own people. Take yourself to the heaven’s looking down on earth, do not stand in the trees looking for the forest .

  22  

A GLOBAL POWER KNOWN BY THE COLOR RED The associat ion of red with communism is rooted by the use of a red f lag by European revolutionaries. The obvious symbolism is that of blood. In fact , red f lags were used in medieval t imes to indicate a cast le would not surrender, and later by pirates and others to indicate that, i f they won NO ONE would be spared (the blood would f low freely).

The butchers who ran the Soviet Union kil led between 25 mil l ion (The Black Book of Communism) and 60 mil l ion (Rudolph J. Rummel) innocent humans-men, women and l i t t le children The monster Stal in may be the greatest mass ki l ler of al l t ime. Some people think Lenin and Trotsky were “not as bad’ as Stal in, that the 1917 revolution was not criminal from the start , but only became criminal later. This is one of the greatest l ies in history. Lenin and Trotsky kil led 4 mil l ion people-men, women and children-by mass executions, death camps, and state-caused famine. Not so well known, and hard to believe, is that even in World War Two, the Soviet state was st i l l the no. 1 ki l ler of Soviet ci t izens, with the Nazis no. 2. Even in wartime, Stal in’s regime was kil l ing more of i ts own people than even an invading barbaric army could.

  39  

It is also often forgotten that the Soviet Union was al l ied with the Nazis for the f irst 2 years of the war. In 1932-3, Stal in and his butchers deliberately starved to death around 7 mil l ion utterly innocent men, women, and l i t t le children, mainly in the Ukraine. Their food was stolen by the government, and every measure was taken to prevent them obtaining any food. Soviet Union leaders, Lenin, Trotsky, Stal in, Khruchchev and Brezhnev al l are known for butchers of innocent people. Stal in being most evi l human that ever l ived. The Soviet Empire for 70 years, occupying countries, enslaving their peoples. A brutal total i tarian empire. Genocide, gulags, mass shootings, famine, deportat ions, tyranny. Sadist ic torture to death in interrogation. Gang-rape of women prisoners. Starvation to death of prisoners. A police state, run by fear, No human rights. No civi l l ibert ies. No freedom of speech. No freedom of rel igion. A one-party state, tolerat ing no opposit ion or cri t icism. Threatening the free world with nuclear weapons. Threatening Western Europe with invasion and slavery or extinction. There’s a reason President Reagan cal led them the “Evil Empire”. Mao Zedong was the leader of the Chinese Party from 1935 unti l his death in 1976. Chairman Mao, as he became known to generations of admiring Western left ists , is arguably the greatest mass murderer in history, ecl ipsing even the murderous Joseph Stal in in this regard. Some 70 mil l ion Chinese, along with countless Tibetans, Mongolians, Manchus, Koreans, Hmong, Uyghurs, and other nationali t ies, perished at his hands during his long and brutal reign. Could the second seal be Communism? If so this seal has been opened for some t ime. All the pieces of the puzzle seem to f i t .

  40  

Recap: A great global power, global intentions, mighty war machine, one minded spiri t , over power peaceful nations, extremely cruel, ki l l i ts own people etc.

COMMUNISM

If Communism had a symbolic horse what color would i t be J PS: 336 mil l ion abortions under China’s one-child policy. More than half a bi l l ion birth control procedures, including at least 336 mil l ion abortions, have been performed in the name of the one-child policy. There are more than 13 mil l ion abortions a year, or 1,500 an hour, in China, according to government researchers, who blame the high f igure on a lack of sex education.

  41  

JESUS BREAKS THE 3 RD SEAL OF THE SEVEN When the Lamb broke the third seal , I heard the third l iving being say, “Come!” I looked up and saw black horse, and i ts r ider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice from among the four l iving beings say, “A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley wil l cost a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine. Rev 6: 5-6 (NLT) 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. 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 wine. Rev 6: 5-6 (KJV) We know from the Old Testament that a horse represents POWER, thus we are looking for a worldwide power. The power needs to be associated with the color black. We are looking for inflated prices for three loaves of barley wil l cost a day’s pay. We are looking for scales and measures. The power should not hurt the oil and wine. We are looking for a great power. Symbolical ly associated with the color black. Scales and measures possibly world trade? A one minded spiri t , my way or the highway. We need to look for inflated prices. Welcoming to Christ ians (not hurting the oil or wine) Global power that is different from the f irst two. Take yourself to the heaven’s looking down on earth. Do not stand in the trees looking for the forest . To help us identify the Black Horse, we looked for the opposite of Communism, our Father uti l ized opposites in the Bible often as a teaching tool. Planting verses uprooting, Life verses death, Kil l ing verses healing and so forth.

  42  

CAPITALISM THE OPPOSITE OF COMMUNISM

In our study i t was very apparent that Capital ism is considered an opposite for Communism. Most al l our research put Capital ism on a pedestal when compared to Communism. However this is not our intent, for we are attempting to identify i f Capital ism could coincide with the Black Horse in Revelat ion. With a small amount of research you wil l be able to come to the same conclusion, that Capital ism is the opposite of Communism. We looked at what our Father’s Word said in the Old Testament about the scale to pinpoint i ts meaning: Your scales and weights must be accurate. Your containers for measuring dry materials or l iquids must be accurate. I am the lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Lev 19: 36 (NLT) You must use accurate scales when you weigh out merchandise. (Deu 25: 13) The LORD detests the use of dishonest scales, but he delights in accurate weights. (Pro 11: 1) The LORD demands accurate scales and balances; he sets the standards for fairness. (Pro 16: 11) The LORD detests double standards; he is not pleased by dishonest scales. (Pro 20: 23) Use only honest weights and scales and honest measures, both dry and l iquid. (Eze 45: 10) But no, the people are l ike crafty merchants sel l ing from dishonest scales—they love to cheat. (Hsa 12: 7) How can I tolerate your merchants who use dishonest scales and weights? (Mic 6: 11)

  43  

You can’t wait for the Sabbath day to be over and the rel igious fest ivals to end so you can get back to cheating the helpless. You measure out grain with dishonest measures and cheat the buyer with dishonest scales. (Amo 8: 5)

THREE LOAVES OF BARLEY WILL COST A DAY’S PAY

  44  

A dollar today can buy only one sixth of what i t could buy in 1971. In 1967, future Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan warned that leaving the gold standard would leave Americans vulnerable to forces that would devalue everything they own. Compared to the White and Red Horse the Black Horse is much more elusive. Many think that the debt of the USA has past the point of rescue. Once the dollar collapses the door wil l be opened for the Black Horse to raise i ts ugly head. It ’s already being talked about on the world stage. The problem with a one world monetary system is who would regulate i t? Although we can now see how the dollar has been signif icantly de-valued upon its collapse “three loaves of barely wil l cost a days pay” or “you can not buy or sel l .”

HOLDING A PAIR OF SCALES

DOUBLE STANDARDS AND DISHONEST SCALES

Although some business transactions are considered legal from the government view, the question remains i f our Heavenly Father approves of them. Why does the cost of gas real ly jump 35 cents in 30 days? Some banks can pay their tel lers simply by the late charges they take from their customers. Have you ever heard the words “to big to fai l” is this fair? There are television channels total ly focused on “American Greed”. The amortizat ion? You buy something, a house for example for $100,000 on a 30 year amortizat ion at 7 % interest . At the end of the f irst 10 years you st i l l owe $85,800. You have only paid off $14,200. That is r ight, you st i l l owe $85,800.00 after 10 years. How can a country be in debt in the amounts of 17 tr i l l ion dollars? Who is gett ing this interest payment? How can this possibly ever be paid for? Who really is the winner in the wars that have been fought? The banks? Every t ime you turn around i t seems another Bernie Madoff pops up. Many of us have lost thousands of dollars in the stock market/401K? We always hear of the losers, why don’t we hear about the winners, the money didn’t disappear. It

  45  

ended up in someone’s pocket. We not only have the Bernie Madoff’s but we have complete corporations that were total r ip-offs, (Enron as example). What’s this about bail the banks out, ah can we have them sell their cadil lac’s and airplane’s f irst? By al l means take their bonus’s away, but NO! I know of contract for deeds where $20,000 was put down on a home and when the home owner could not make the house payment the sel ler took the house back keeping the entire $20,000 put down on the home in only a matter of a few years. Then only to resel l the house again and repeat the same process and this cycle kept repeating. The banking industry often uses 360 days a year verses 365 days a year that normally most people think of. Why? You wil l be given many reasons for this but the fact remains when a 360-day method (known as ordinary interest or banker’s rule) wil l yield signif icantly more interest to the lender. Then the foreclosure market’s , enough said, you get the idea. I ’m not slamming Capital ism for there are many posit ives in i t however there is a dark side of Capital ism that the Black Horse might be evolving out of. We easi ly found 9 verses in the Bible where our Father made i t well known how He feels about dishonest scales. We certainly can see dishonesty today, some legal , some not.

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM

The f irst two objectives are sometimes referred to as the Federal Reserve’s dual mandate. I ts duties have expanded over the years, and today, according to off icial Federal Reserve documentation, include conducting the nation’s monetary policy, supervising and regulat ing banking inst i tut ions, maintaining the stabil i ty of the f inancial system and providing f inancial services to depository inst i tut ions, the U.S. government, and foreign off icial inst i tut ions.

The Federal Reserve has POWER, they tel l our country what to do, just as your banker tel ls you what you can or

cannot do f inancial ly.

  48  

The Federal Reserve Systems role as lender of last resort has been cri t ic ized because i t shif ts the risk and responsibi l i ty away from lenders and borrowers and places i t on others in the form of inflat ion. Note, the Federal Reserve is an independent enti ty and is not part of our federal government. I t ’s a bank with a lot of power. Proverbs 22:7, The rich ruleth over the poor. And the borrower is servant to the lender. (KJV)

SYMBOLICALLY BLACK

Most f inancial apps use a black or dark background

Note: Please be reminded what Jesus thought of the moneychangers. I real ize they were in the Temple however He could have stated to move elsewhere, however Jesus took a whip to them. There was a disl ike going on here, not just the location where the moneychangers were working.

Ever heard of these f inancial references? BLACK TUESDAY BLACK FRIDAY BLACK-SCHOLES MODEL BLACK BOX BLACK MONDAY BLACK THURSDAY FINANCIAL BLACK HOLE BLACK SWAN THEORY BLACK MONEY BLACK TRADING IN THE BLACK BLACK ELECTORATE ECONOMICS BLACK MARKETS FINANCIAL BLACK SHEEP At least three of these l isted above represent market crashes. When we looked for the opposite of Communism we also found that i f a country was considered non-al ignment with the red, the country would be considered black. Example taken from Time magazine talking about Germany states; there are healthy differences between the partners: the Christ ian Democrats are semi-conservatives who favor free enterprise and f irm ties to the West ; the Social Democrats are l iberals who favor some state control of the economy and cal l for a more open att i tude toward the Eastern block nations. The art icle went on saying; In today’s West Germany, there are few men who could have forged the black-red coali t ion. This is real common in the European nations to describe the west this way. If non-al igned with the red you are considered black.

The symbol above or f lag denotes the Trilateral Commission, originally set up by capital ist ic nations in efforts to control their interests globally. The color is correct for their logo, black. I would urge al l reader’s to invest igate/google this organization and see if you feel this is just a part of the bigger picture to come. There’s books writ ten on the tr i lateral commission, book cover shown below, and on occasion we have heard of this group in national news.

Above is the logo for the f lag of the International Monetary Fund with the correct color.

(KJV) AND SEE THOU HURT NOT THE OIL AND THE WINE

We took this verse prophetical ly and symbolical ly.

Oil can represent the Holy Spiri t and wine is also representat ive of the covenant blessings God promised to Israel for obedience and which He would withhold for disobedience. Where does the Holy Spiri t reside? Among and within believers. Where do we f ind freedom of rel igion? Most Capital ist ic countries are Christ ian friendly with USA being most Christ ian friendly nation in the world thus (see thou hurt not the oil and the wine).

Does the Black Horse represent Capital ism?

The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and grisled go forth toward the south country. And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth; and I said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth. Then cried he upon me, and apake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spiri t in the north country. (Zech 6: 6-8 KJV) Is this the Black Horse of Revelat ion residing in the north country as spoken by Zechariah? All the characterist ics f i t , inflated prices, trade and commerce/scales, opposite of seals 1 & 2, where the oil and wine wil l not be hurt, extremely powerful, presides in the north countries. All the puzzle pieces seem to f i t . The scripture below reads as i f just broadcasted on CNN. (Nehemiah 5: 3-5 ESV) There were also those who said, “We are mortgaging our f ields, our vineyards, and our houses to get grain because of the famine.” And there were those who said, “We have borrowed money for the king’s tax on our f ields and our vineyards. Now

  54  

our f lesh is as the f lesh of our brothers, our children are as their children. Yet we are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters have already been enslaved, but i t is not in our power to help i t , for other men have our f ields and our vineyards.”

The fal l of the USA wil l be i ts debt for whoever controls your debt controls you!!

If the world monetary system had a horse, what color would i t be? Woops, I guess some already picked the color of their horseJ

JESUS BREAKS THE 4TH SEAL OF THE SEVEN

When the Lamb broke the fourth seal , I heard the forth l iving being say, “Come!” I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. Its r ider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to ki l l , with sword and famine and disease and wild animals. (Rev 6: 7-8 NLT) When the Lamb opened the fourth seal , I heard the voice of the fourth l iving creature say, ”Come!” I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its r ider was named Death, and Hades was fol lowing close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kil l by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. (Rev 6: 7-8 KJV) Prior to our study of the 4th horse we need to determine what the color of this horse actually is . Is i t pale or green or both? The Greek-word is (Chloros) which represents green. Chloros is the word in Revelat ion 6: 8 as shown above. The same word Chloros is translated green in Mark 6:39 (commanded them all to si t down by companies upon the (Chloros) green grass) . Again this word Chloros is used in Rev 8: 7, but translated as green, (a third of the trees were burnt up, and al l (Chloros) green grass was burnt up. The same thing is also found in Rev 9: 4 where Chloros is translated as green. We feel the translat ions should al l be the same. We wil l begin our study looking for a green horse and see what happens. We can only assume the translators fel t that there was no such thing as a green horse. A few translat ions state pale green however many do not. Who’s ever seen a green horse is probably what the translators were thinking. However the correct translat ion can easi ly be green as we have shown above. We know from Old Testament teachings that a horse represents POWER. We are looking for a great power that wil l have authority over one-fourth of the earth. Take note that this verse tel ls us straight out that the horse has power/authority. We are looking for a power al igned with the color green. Its r ider has a

  56  

name: Death, (capital D an actual name). We should look for an opposite of the 1 st, 2nd, or 3 rd horses. His companion was the grave. The opposite of the grave biblical ly is eternal l i fe. This power was given one-fourth of the earth to kil l . Then we are given examples of what is used to ki l l . Note that this power wil l basical ly use any thing i t can imagine to kil l with. We also know from biblical study that Satin can be referred to as Death.

SYMBOLICALLY GREEN

The color green has a special place in Islam. I t is used in the decoration of mosques, the bindings of Qur’ans, the si lken covers for the graves of Sufi saints, and in the f lags of various Muslim countries. Green has been associated with Islam for many centuries. The color green was the color used by Muhammad’s tr ibe on their f lags. According to Muslims the color green symbolizes nature and l i fe. In the Qur’an (Surah 76:21), i t is said that the inhabitants of paradise wil l wear green garments of f ine si lk. The color green has been considered especial ly Is lamic for centuries. Crusaders avoided using any green in their coat of arms, so that they could not possibly be mistaken for their Muslim opponents in the heat of batt le. Green is considered the tradit ional color of Is lam.

There were numerous camera’s that caught Muslims cheering after the attack on the twin towers. How about the ones the camera’s never caught? Is this the power that would kil l with wild animals? These who have kil led as shown in the above pictures were certainly animals for no human could kil l innocent people this way.

A POWER THAT LOVES DEATH

Muslim leaders the world over are preaching the doctrine of Death. They love death. They say, “We are going to win, because they love l i fe and we love death,” said Hassan Nasral lah, the leader of Hezbollah. He has also said: “Each of us l ives his days and nights hoping more than anything to be kil led for the sake of Allah.” Shortly after 9/11, Osama bin Laden told a reporter: “We love death. The U.S. loves l i fe. That is the big difference between us”. “the Americans love Pepsi-Cola, we love death.” Explained Afghani al Qaeda operative Maulana Inyadullah. Sheik Feiz Mohammed, leader of the Global Islamic Youth Center in Sydney, Austral ia, preached: “We want to have children and offer them as soldiers defending Islam. Teach them this : There is nothing more beloved to me than wanting to die as a Mujahid.” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a speech: It is the zenith of honor for a man a young person, boy or gir l , to be prepared to sacrif ice his l i fe in order to serve the interests of his nation and his rel igion. To the Muslim rel igionist death is victorious because he bel ieves he wil l be united with 72 virgins in some “Paradise” after he blows himself up in his misguided attempt to please his god-Allah. Under this interpretat ion of the Koranic verse, Islam is a suicide/death cult and Mohammed taught that death is good and glorious. I John 4:3, And every spiri t that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the f lesh is not of God: and this is that spiri t of antichrist , whereof ye have heard that i t should come and even now already is i t in the world. (KJV)

A POWER THAT WILL USE ALL MEANS TO KILL

Islamic Mil i tants/In the News

Islamist mil i tants have cut off emergency food delivery for an est imated 240,000 people in the central southern regions of Somalia, according to rel ief workers, in an ominous development for one of the largest food-delivery programs in the famine –stricken east African nation. Suicide bombers str ike Kabul hotel , fourteen dead. Suicide bomber ki l ls 21 at Pakistan mosques. Suicide bombers target Afghan security forces. Double suicide bombing in Tel Aviv Tailbans new weapon: Suicide bombers. Iraq increases i ts payments to suicide bombers. Suicide bomber ki l ls guard at U.S. embassy in turkey. Suicide terrorism in Pakistan. Mahmoud Abba’s Fatah glorif ies suicide bombers on i ts facebook. Iraq, 442 suicide bombing occurred, one of the highest yearly. This l is t is never ending! You get the point. II John 1:7, For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the f lesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist . (KJV) Muslims do not confess Jesus Christ. Please view: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-3X5hIFXYU

All the characterist ic’s f i t , a great power, the color green, authority over one quarter of the earth, celebrates death, global intentions, global influence, ki l ls with no remorse, loves death and kil l by any means. If Islamism had a symbolic horse what color would i t be J

IS THE GREEN HORSE ISLAMISM?

But the serpent said to the woman. “You wil l not surely die.” (Genesis 3: 4)

The devil throughout al l t ime has been trying to persuade humans to die. (Since the seventh century Islam has been doing the same.) The last enemy to be destroyed is death . (1 Corinthians 15: 26)

Jts r ider was named Death (Rev 6: 8)

“Crescent” shown on many Islamic f lags

Jdg 8:21 So Zebah and Zalmunna said, “Rise yourself , and ki l l us; for as a man his strength.” So Gideon arose and ki l led Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent ornaments that (were) on the their camel’s necks. (NKJV) Jdg 8:26 Now the weight of the gold earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred (shekels) of gold, besides the crescent ornaments, pendants, and purple robes, which (were) on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that (were) around their camel’s necks. (NKJV)

A Midianite is s t i l l an enemy of Christ ians to this day.

The One and Only God glorif ies Himself

Take the maps of each horse and overlay them on the blank map shown above. The entire world covered by 4 HORSES/POWERS. Only God could have such control? Prophecy writ ten 2,000 years ago, two prophets l iv ing many years apart , with the prophecy matching each other and then for us to see this prophesy unfold some 2,000 years lat ter, identifying each element of the prophecy within our current t ime frame. This is not coincidence. For this type of accuracy is the work of the mighty arm of God. Coincidence in this case is impossibil i ty. A stat ist ical study or probabil i ty study regarding the odds of this happening would certainly be interest ing. Can the mysteries of this world be revealed? According to the Bible they can be, we are supposed to understand. We started this study with understanding that the Old Testament shown a horse represented POWER, symbolical ly a type of SPIRIT, that can form or bring forth governments, conquerors, famine, pest i lence, death and war or possibly al l the above. We are concluding our study understanding that i t is al l the above.

  68  

Remember early in our study we found a horse can represent judgment, and usually dramatic judgment for the sake of purif icat ion. We also understand that Jesus opened these seals 1-4. When does man turn to God? Often after a catastrophe we wil l turn to God? This real ly is not much different than what happened in the Old Testament t ime. God al lowed powers of the world to carry his people away due to their disobedience. Biblical story after biblical story shows where disobedience leads to judgment and tribulat ion, thus why would we be any different. Remember Israel of the Old Testament; the better things were the further away from God they got. Judgment after judgment came down, God was warning them and did not want to see them perish. Furthermore God choose his people for a purpose and when we start walking in our path, rather than God’s path, we should plan on being corrected. We are no different than those of the Old Testament, for we have drif ted further and further from God. If God can get our attention to wake us up and repent and go back to him it is surely better than the second death that is spoke of in the Bible. Remember He loves us, he does not want to see us perish, He died on a cross for us. The colors that were on the maps are exactly how these maps were printed off the Internet. Nothing included in this study was f ixed in anyway, statements and pictures were printed as found on the internet. We hope you followed our suggest ion by coloring in the blank map showing the 4 POWERS/HORSES covering the entire globe. When coloring in the world map save space for a nation known today as Israel. Although the modern day state of Israel is very corrupted, as is the rest of the world, i t wil l l ikely play a role in the end t imes. There may only be a hand full a remnant left however they wil l win. Yep, a t inny remnant WINS!! How? Just l ike Gideon of the Old Testament. Why, God wil l show the world i t is He who fights the batt le just as he did during the days of Gideon. We should not close our eyes to the fact that al l nations Israel fought against in the Old Testament days are presently Muslim. When Jesus returns where does he go? Isaiah 19 “Behold the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud and shall come into Egypt”.
