Rev 6:3-4 Picture of the Second Horseman of the Apocalypse
2nd Horseman of the Apocalypse
In the last picture we saw the 1st Horseman.
Yes, there is a period of time in the book of Revelation called the “Beginning of Sorrows”. The Beginning of Sorrows is not marked by a particular time or date. It is revealed by a series of unfolding events. The Bible uses very graphic terms to create very vivid word pictures in describing these events. The 1st Horseman of the Apocalypse is one of the first of these biblical events. It presented a false Messiah who goes throughout the earth to conquer. So, the fist Horseman was a picture of the “Beginning of Sorrows”, a false Messiah.
What is your new picture about?
I ended the first part of the interview with a warning of war clouds forming. Does this threat of war predict the end of the world? Not really. There will always be war. This new picture presents the 2nd Horseman of the Apocalypse. This Horseman takes peace from the earth through war. However the bible is very clear in explaining the 2nd Horseman.
Matt 24:6
6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
So how do the Horsemen relate to the end of the world?
These pictures relate to a series of seven unfolding events. At the conclusion of these events we see the destruction of the world. We are just at the second event. Stay tuned more to come.

When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
