  • The Fourth Seal, the Fourth Horseman

    The article APO012 studies the fourth seal of Revelation (Rev 6.7-8) and the appearance of the pale horse ridden by Death. As the culmination of the three previous horsemen, this rider is given power to kill a quarter of humanity by war, famine, plagues and wild beasts. The article stresses the divine sovereignty that frames this terrible judgment, and places this event within the prophetic unfolding of the end times.

    Revelation 6.1-8 (King James Version) :
    And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.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 kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.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 the wine.And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
