1KJV: 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.
2KJV: 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.
3KJV: And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4KJV: 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.
5KJV: 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.
6KJV: 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.
7KJV: And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8KJV: 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.
9KJV: And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10KJV: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11KJV: And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
12KJV: And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13KJV: And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14KJV: And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15KJV: And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16KJV: And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17KJV: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
Today's lecture will be lit, hope we understood yesterday's teaching? I hope we doing well, let's enter today's lectures. Now in this part, we're gonna talk about something I didn't talk about in chapter 5 lecture about the two-tiered folds of those seven seals. One of the tiers is towards God's people and another is towards the condemned, in chapter 5 we looked at the Seven seals towards the People of God, how it was broken, have you seen a scroll before? It has writings on either part. According to ancient writings and scrolls, when Prophets write on scrolls as messages from God, they write the good part on one side and the judgment or doom part on the other.
So if you don't belong to one party, the other part will come for you, John understood this as a prophet, so when the Lamb broke the seals over the Book, the writings of the book can now gain EXPRESSION, so if you do not align to the good part of the Book by being in Christ, the bad part will be your portion. Revelation 6 reveals the bad part for those not in Christ, I had to cement this foundation before I enter the teaching, for some of us who we ready getting confused. Now when you see horses, what comes to mind? A battle formation, so it doesn't mean there are literal horses in Heaven, right? I've had many encounters with Jesus on a horse and every time He's on a horse, he gives instructions, a formation for the Body to carry out as a commander, so I already know what it means seeing a vision of Him on a horse it's a signal I'm to receive an instruction soon.
So John saw a vision of horses means battle formation or warfare systems designed towards the Earth. I'll explain to them as we go on. Now when the first seal was opened, he saw a scene of vision unfold before him and he began to see a white horse and he saw one seated on it, had a crown, and had a bow, and he was a conqueror. Now, this is a spiritual reality presenting itself in natural earthly terms. John didn't dwell much on the white horse on this chapter, but in another chapter, he did talk about the white horse which he saw in the chapter. So I will talk about the white horse when we get there now remember what I said earlier about this? That the explanation of one vision may be in another chapter.
To Be Continued
