Title: *HISTORY’S PAGENT OF SUFFERING*
Text: Revelation 6:1-17
Introduction:
Brace yourselves, for our study of Revelation is about to take a big change: we come to the unfolding of three series of judgments that come upon the earth.
We are at the beginning of the seven years of the Great Tribulation.
It is set in motion in chapter 5 where Christ takes the seven-sealed scroll from the Father.
God pours out judgment upon all those who have rejected Him and have persecuted those that belong to Him.
As we study, we can’t help but shudder what is to come to this sin-sick world.
The Father is long-suffering, but eventually He must judge sin and vindicate His servants.
But keep in mind that John wrote to encourage God’s people, though he is told to reveal the outpouring of His wrath.
The end of the conflict between God and Satan comes when the King of Kings gives victory to His overcomers in the closing chapters of this book.
Since we do not know when Christ will return, each generation is to live in expectancy of His coming.
Each generation has to declare God’s truth because all of us contend with a corrupt society (Babylon) and those who work against Christ (Antichrist).
*Read Text.*
* *It is appropriate that Christ takes the sealed scroll to open it.
Sin is rebellion against God, and Jesus died because of that rebellion.
Therefore it’s God’s justice for Jesus to initiate the outpouring of wrath against the rebellion.
As the first four seals are broken, each reveals one of the creatures that surround the throne summoning a rider on a horse.
(Please refrain from reading the insight until we have discussed the questions first.)
1.
What do you think the rider on the white horse represents?
(The first on the scene is the counterfeit white horse rider – the Antichrist.)
Any ideas on what the bow in his hand would represent?
(The subtle and swift work of the deceiver; notice it was /given/ to him = delegated authority.)
*1 Thess.
5:3* And the crown?
(Temporary victory over the earth.
This is contrasted with Christ in *Rev.
19:12*.)
\\ *Insight:* /We must keep in mind that God allows this false Christ to take this role.
When Jesus came in the Father’s name, He was not received on earth.
Yet when this false one comes, the world receives him.
/*John 5:43* /This is a picture of a brilliant and irresistible conqueror whose victories will dazzle the world and he will gather together 10 kings for Satan’s anarchy./
*Rev.
