The Four Horsemen of the ApocalypseAre the four horsemen of the Apocalypse already riding their horses on the loose and amongst the nations of the world today?
There are a growing number of Bible scholars that think they may be?
My view is that no, they have not mounted their steeds to take the final rides that will spell the end of mankind's existence here on the earth; not yet anyway, but that is not to say that those dire circumstances may already be nigh on already at hand even if they are not quite here just yet.
There still may be a lot more of the Bible prophecies that have yet to be fulfilled before we can say that terrible time is right on our doorsteps.
The White Horse
The Antichrist is revealed as he rubber stamps a seven year covenant between Israel and the Arab states in the Middle East.
Red HorseThe Antichrist is given a large sword meaning a large army, that would be equal or greater than any other army on the face of the earth. He then sets out to start and win an apocalyptic third world war.
The Black HorseAfter the war the world is racked by famine and plague the likes of which mankind has never witnessed before, or will never witness again, as a result the Antichrist takes control of the food and dishes it out to those that he wants to live, at the same time denying it to those that he wishes to see die from starvation.
The Pale Horse
There are some Christians and Jews that will resist the Antichrist as well as a few others of various denominations. As a result the Antichrist sets out to kill and destroy those that will not be subversive to his commandments by taking his mark.
Everyone is familiar with the current 2012 doomsday predictions. In December of 2012, the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, which was used by several Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures, will reach the end of its 13th baktun.
People have predicted that this indicates that a massive geological event will occur on Earth. There are many theories surrounding the sun, space and the 2012 severe weather patterns. Put yourself in the place of a high level government official.
If you had direct information that a cataclysmic event was approaching Earth, would you suppress it from the public or announce it?
The obvious answer is to hide it and secretly prepare for a response, but that does still not give us any indication whatsoever that there is indeed anything of real significance that is going to happen in 2012 that one could consider to be out of the ordinary.
But how does this date setting of 2012 tie in with the Bible prophecies mentioned above relating to the most terrible time that is ever to befall mankind during the terrible reign of the Antichrist.
The answer to that is as plain and simple as the nose on your face - it simply doesn't.
There is nothing in the word of the maker of the living God, the Holy Bible, that has ever mentioned anything about a date, or date setting for specific events to take place, and neither should the Born Again Christian believer be concerned with the setting of dates for the timing of explicit events to take place such as predicating the end of the world in 2012.
Basically, we are simply not privileged to know this type of information so just forget all about the scaremongering attached to this 2012 end times scenario and get on with living your life by taking one day at a time.
