![]() ![]() We now come to the fourth seal, the fourth horseman, and his ride of death by plague. The cumulative effect will lead to such conditions that if Jesus Christ did not intervene and cut short the time of trial, “no flesh would be saved” (Matthew 24:22). These seals, dramatically depicted by four horsemen, show the effect of false religion, war, famine and plague among the earth’s population in the days leading to the return of Jesus Christ.Įach of these seals represents powerful forces that devastate human life on the earth. In this booklet we have been examining each of the first four seals of Revelation 6. Tomorrow it could be another, even greater plague to sweep across the landscape, leaving death and destruction in its wake. Before that it was aids, which has killed tens of millions and even today is still decimating the populations of some countries. ![]() Before that it was ebola, which killed thousands in Africa before being largely contained. The most recent disease fear was covid-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), which killed hundreds of thousands and panicked millions more. While the first can lead to the death of thousands, the second can unravel the social fabric, disrupting the precarious balance of relationships essential for the stability of nations. ![]()
