Rider on the White Horse conclusion
I would conclude therefore that the two riders are completely different persons. In Revelation 6:1 we have an imposter; an imitation Christ; white-washed with a veneer of deceptive righteousness but with an evil heart that seeks to conquer souls for himself and his own twisted glory’ In Revelation 19:11 we have Christ Jesus who has…

Rider on the White Horse 7
Therefore, the rider on the white horse here in Revelation 6 wears a different form of crown to the many crowns worn by the rider of the white horse in Revelation 19:11, thus separating the two as being different people. One is Christ Jesus and the other is the false antichrist.

Rider of the White Horse part 6
The rider on his white steed rides out as a conqueror bent on conquest.I would argue that this rider is the Antichrist whose purpose is to coerce and dominate the souls of the inhabitants of this earth by spiritual deception.Our relationship with Jesus is one of willing love and not of forced conquest.

Rider on the White Horse 5
So this rider on a white horse may appear to be righteous but he has covered his corruption with lies and falsehoods. We are called to see behind his deceptions and know his evil heart. We need to discern. We must stay close and true to Jesus!
-
Rider on a White Horse 3
It would be much more likely that this rider is the Antichrist who will actually bring warfare, hunger and death in his wake. Some have attempted to turn the elements of warfare, hunger and death into symbols of this or that but this seems like a desperate attempt to symbolize the meaning out of the…

Rider on the White Horse 2
It is imperative that we can discern between Christ Jesus and the deceptive Antichrist, that we can tell who is who, otherwise we risk being horribly deceived in these last days. It certainly makes much more sense that Jesus the Lamb opens the first seal to reveal someone other than himself! Someone such as a…

Rider on the White Horse 1
“It is imperative that we can discern between Christ Jesus and the deceptive Antichrist, so that we can tell who is who, otherwise we risk being horribly deceived in these last days.”

The Sixth Seal pt 8
I would suggest that since Matthew 24 and Revelation 6 are running parallel and describe remarkably similar sequences, we can therefore assert that Christ will gather the elect, immediately before the wrath of God is poured out upon this earth.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 7
So the end-time sequence of Matthew 24 and Revelation 6 are the same: the tribulation, then the disturbances then the return of Christ. Once again we see that Revelation 6 runs remarkably parallel with the Olivet Discourse of Matthew 24.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 6
Many have argued, quite rightly, that Revelation chapter six runs remarkably parallel with the Olivet Discourse of Matthew 24. Therefore, the cosmological disturbances of Matthew 24:29-30 are one and the same with the cosmological disturbances of Revelation 6:12-15. Both mark the exact same point in time.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 5
Fallen man has always preferred to deny the existence of God, hoping in vain, that they will somehow escape his wrath. But the cosmological disturbances, the darkened sun, blood-red moon and falling stars, have concentrated their minds and they are forced to recognise His throne and His wrath.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 4
I appreciate this all probably sounds rather gloomy and sober, but there is a day of reckoning coming upon the corrupt and the cruel, which will precede the heavenly righteousness of Christ’s kingdom that will be established on this earth.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 3
God has created the most magnificent of worlds for His children to dwell in. But yet, in His righteous anger, He will bring it all down upon those who refuse to accept His grace and mercy.

Sunday Review 14
Welcome to this Sunday Review. This past week I have been continuing with Revelation 6 and the fifth and sixth seal. I will carry on with this tomorrow, coming to its dramatic climax swiftly.
-
The Sixth Seal pt 2
The very end-times will feature a great number of earthquakes, as the earth and creation itself will groan in expectation of liberty. Some have associated this great earthquake with Zechariah 14:4.On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two…
-
The Sixth Seal pt 1
There will be a series of cosmological disturbances just after the tribulation and just before Christ Jesus returns in power and glory. We can put aside the popular notion that the sky will be full of fluffy white clouds when Christ Jesus returns. This will be a dark day of judgement and vengeance. Every eye…
-
The Fifth Seal pt 4
Our initial verse tells us that there will be a wave of intense persecution focused on the Middle East, leading to martyrdom for countless Christians. This will need an immense level of trust between ourselves and our King. This will call us to step forward as lambs, enfolded by the love of Christ, surrendering ourselves…
-
The Fifth Seal pt 3
How long must the injustices of fallen man plague this earth. But in all things there is the perfect timing of God. No matter how impatient we become, and this is quite understandable, , we must surrender to God’s perfect timing, praying that the day will hasten, When the time is perfectly right, Christ Jesus…
-
The Fifth Seal pt 2
It breaks our heart when we consider the injustices of this world. Everywhere, the rich and the corrupt profit ruthlessly from the sufferings of the poor without respite. This stands in sharp contrast with the kingdom of righteousness of our Sovereign Lord that he will establish here on earth when he returns in power and glory.
-
The Fifth Seal
The fifth seal also brings a great word of encouragement. It is true that there will be a wave of persecution and martyrdom during this time as the antichrist fights in anger. But yet the martyrs will be brought under the altar, close to Jesus. They will be safe in his presence. He has been…

The Fourth Horseman
The grim measure of these verses holds a toxic stench. Here lies the harvest of unrighteousness, the fruit of the sinful nature of fallen man

The Third Horseman part a
Yesterday’s post might have been discouraging as we learnt that the end-time beast would weaponise food supplies in order to conquer the souls of the populace. However, the Lord has promised to keep us through this time of tribulation. These will be lean times indeed but the Lord will always walk with us and care…

The Third Horseman of Revelation 6
This morning we explore the rider on the black horse who carries the scales.The bitter fruit of warfare and persecution is inevitably hunger and famine.

Laodicea 6
Some commentators hold a forward-looking approach, suggesting that the refining fire mentioned here is the coming end-time tribulation. Those who remain true and do not renounce their faith, will be refined and purified by this tribulation.
