Bible Question: In Rev. 6:2, it speaks of a white horse with a rider with a bow and wearing a crown. My paster asked me the question if I know who that mistery rider is? I think it is Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, [Zeck. 6:11]. Is this true? And what are the other horses supposed to be? |
Bible Answer: The rider on the white horse is the anti-christ trying to immitate christ, wearing a crown and conquering the nations of the earth. Remember, the seven seals are not God's wrath, this is the tribulation Jesus spoke about it matthew 24. Take notes and compare it with this chapter of revelations. The sun turns black, the moon turns red and the sky is shaken at the coming of the lord. AFTER this you will see in the 7th chapter of revelations, a great multitude is now before the lamb. They came out of one tribulation, the great one. There isn't a tribulation and a great tribulation, there is only one. A lot of ministers confuse the wrath of God with the great tribulation. The bible says...even Jesus said that we will suffer tribulation and the world will be in anguish because of what is coming upon the earth. Read what Jesus says in matthew 24 vs 29. "Immediately after the distress of those days" men will be in distress because of what is happening to the world and because of the reign of the anti-christ. When Jesus is speaking he was talking to his disciples, also to us (believers) saying "when YOU see the abomination that causes desolation spoken of through the prophet Daniel." Jesus Christ has not yet come. He comes immediately after the distress of those days. Take time to read and study carefully Matthew 24 and revelations 6 as well as daniel. |
