Revelation 6 -- There Is Nothing Hidden That Shall Not Be Revealed

6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, For thousands of years none was worthy to open the seals because none was worthy to be the lamb that takes away the sins of the world. Each one of these seals is opened by the lamb. and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Thunder accompanies lightning. Jesus said that He saw Satan falling as lightning when the apostles and the 70 were out preaching the gospel. Come. 2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. There are a lot of different interpretations about what this horse is. Let’s consider everything we know. First, the horse rides through the Earth, this is something that rides forth throughout the Earth, and it comes forth when the Lamb opens this seal. The rider has a bow but no arrow. The rider had a crown and he came forth conquering and also to conquer. Some think this represents the antichrist, false prophets, and the false gospel. That doesn’t make sense, the antichrist is not going to conquer, he is going to be defeated. Jesus has a crown, He is Lord. He came forth from the grave conquering sin and death. He has already shot His arrow. The gospel is going to be preached to the uttermost parts of the Earth. Everyone who participates in this ministry is led about in the victory train of Jesus. Finally, Jesus has conquered and He is going forth to conquer. By the end of this age every knee will bow and every voice will confess that Jesus is Lord. Prior to Jesus resurrection and ascension this gospel was sealed up. Paul said that the prophets had longed to see what we see. Throughout the gospels you see that the apostles and the religious leaders did not have the vision, it was sealed up to them, yet the Lord fulfilled all the prophecies. The Black Lives Matter movement is evidence that we still have battles to win. Climate change, Amnesty international, social justice, there are many examples of battles that still need to be fought and won. The strategy for victory is revealed when this seal was opened. If you want to go forth and conquer you need to be one with the Lamb.
