Revelation 6; Verses 3-4; Mark 13:7-8; The Second Seal

(Revelation 6:3-4) "And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

***we are instructed to open our eyes and understand***


(Come and see. Nothing hidden the ongoing theme as have seen now for 2 whole chapters now basically. Hidden as satan and the false preachers working for him. Think not? Do they openly answer these questions? The book of Revelation? Therefore, the proof is in the pudding).


4And 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."


This sword is physical and not spiritual as we will see more here. The sword always represents going to war/battle. Hence to conquer in seal 1, by force here. Of course, Christ was adamantly against that the kingdom of Heaven would come by war. In other words, man's fallacy that war can bring peace. Though we have seen the cycle through HIStory repeat itself over and over, until now.


(Red always represents communism to one "worldism" in God's Word (we need to note we're in the political beast here, man removing freedom of both--religion and politics. We see this even through man trying to take God's free will away).

First we should be looking at that RED nation, Russia (Esau). Then we should fix our eyes on the byproduct of that RED nation (Russia), which is communism (marxism, socialism and every there type of ism that takes away from the worship of Almighty God). Esau, that Red nation by the use of communism seeks to remove Christ and the living God from the earth to the strong influence they have through the rest of the world with communism on the rise inherently though the attempted removal of God.


(Red always symbolic for blood whether either be the blood of Christ, or spiritual blood on the hands from the works of satan as well (such as Revelation 17 the scarlet shade blood on high rolling/high riding heifer, the babylon whore (as she has wed the king of babylon as she is the queen). Remember seal one along with Mark 13:5-6 in the prior study).


This peace taking away is the nations at war with each other as we see chaos on the earth. Strange alignments for power grabs (for there common cause at the moment), double/triple dealings in the dark, etc. satan at the 6th seal, and per Mark 13:14 comes in peacefully and prosperously after the healing of the deadly wound (more on that to come). So easy to see in that respect how the world accepts satan claiming to be Christ/God. In the next 2 seals we will see the other reasons.


Now to seal 2 in Mark 13:7. As this is sign 2 of the end-times, as we continue on here we will cover every signal sign in complete concordance with Mark 13.


(Mark 13:7) "And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars (certainly nuclear threats), be ye not troubled (no sweat we got this): for such things must needs be (got to happen); but the end shall not be yet.


(Don't be troubled as Christ is talking to His true people, not such as them false preachers in the previous verse. The end is not yet as we have a whole chapter to go through to the time satan comes to claim to be Christ/God. Then Christ coming at that last trumpet, the 7th trumpet. No pre trib rapture/rapture, OBVIOUSLY).


Part of verse 8 as well. The next seal will deal the other part of verse 8.


8"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom."


The next seals we will see more of the resulting conditions of satan sent to conquer and through the false preachers. Pretty simple, God and His Word should bring true blessings to earth. Not their lies, hidden agendas, not teaching anything, you can forget about openly. If their doors are not opened to teach, preach, answer questions who sent them?


***The second seal (Mark 13) is the same as the second seal referenced in Revelation.  What is worth noting that this is a war that will span the entire earth and is not a physical war as in WW III (things will get testy, Christ said be not troubled).  This is a spiritual battle, and all Christians need to go into combat with the Gospel Armour/Armour of God. Everyone is in a spiritual war whether they know it or not, and the first seal brought these conditions.*** 

AMEN.
