Revelation 6

Sorry, I was sick last night, there will be another post later today! Have you ever heard about the four horsemen of the apocalypse? Well, this chapter, chapter 6 is where you'll hear more about them. Recap, John is having a vision while in the spirit and he sees a lamb that represents Jesus accepting a scroll with seven seals from a being who occupies a thrown in the centre of his vision which represents God the father. There are four winged animal creatures with several eyes resembling an ox, a lion, a man, and an eagle. As he open each seal a horseman appears. 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. (‭Revelation‬ ‭6‬:‭2‬ NIV)...Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other. To him was given a large sword. (‭Revelation‬ ‭6‬:‭4‬ NIV) When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. (‭Revelation‬ ‭6‬:‭5‬ NIV)
Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!” (‭Revelation‬ ‭6‬:‭6‬ NIV) I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. (‭Revelation‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ NIV)When he opened the fifth seal, and the sixth seal, there we no horses, instead for the fifth martyrs who died preaching the good word asked when their death would be avenged, the sun turned black, the moon blood red, and the sky receded and the mountains, and islands were all moved from their place. All of the kings, princes, generals, the rich and everyone else hid away in caves from the one who sits on the throne and the wrath of the lamb.
