Subject: Who's the rider in Rev.'s 6:2? |
Bible Note: You are right in saying that the events following the seventh seal are God's wrath. No, the great tribulation is not the wrath of satan, but it is events brought about by God so as to fulfill bible prophecy, just as Christ also fulfilled scripture by being baptized by John and other events that followed. Satan however does fit into the scheme of things, obviously by immitating Christ as the first rider going forth as a conquerer, dwelling in a human vessel namely the anti-christ. The seven seals are all about war, famine, and pestilence. We have that going on today, but the intensity however, will be greatly increased. Remember what the apostle paul said in 2nd Thess 2 vs 3. "Let no man DECEIVE you by any means, for that day (the coming of the Lord) shall not come except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition. (the anti-christ) The anti-christ must first be revealed, the bible is very clear on that, regardless of what any man says. Jesus said it and Paul says it. Everything is based upon what is written by the apostles and the prophets and of course Christ. There really is no other simple explanation for these verses, only what others claim to satisfy their personal views. This scripture is not my view, but only what the manual (bible) says. God Bless |
