Sorry I was gone so long ... computer was down. As foir the post quoted, light and white are not necessarily interchangeable. I believe in the inspiration of the Word ... that God spoke the Word into existence through His people. I also happen to believe He knew what He was doing ;) What...

Actually, I haven't said a thing about the word "Light" at all. I was talking about the word "White" in the verses concerning the Whiute horse. I'm sorry if you misunderstood. <whew> I can't take the time to respond to each verse (I did read the whole thing) but no,you were not in...

You are right, I did misunderstand. Mea Culpa. Hmmm ... I really shouldn't post at all when I've been 48 hrs without sleep LOL. :sorry:

This makes little sense to me. NONE of the riders is described as wearing anything yet we readily consider the color of those other three horses. Why should we not consider the color of this horse? We cannot accpet three and toss one out because we don't want to deal with it, can we? Also...

Why? They do not necessarily go hand in hand and the word "light" has nothing to do with these verses. :scratch: (and yes, Iknow where you are going with this lol)

It's our Monday night study, but I don't mind posting late Mondays :)

I agree that this is symbolic of literal events (whether spiritual or physical), no problem there. And history certainly plays a role in prophecy. My point is that Scriptural interpretation comes First. We have to be careful not to set the verse in a certain context of history then make that...

I see your line of reasoning here, however, as I said before, we must be careful o look at the Scriptures First. In this case, the crown you are refering to would be called a "diadem," the crown worn by a ruler. However, in the verse the word crown is not diadem but is a "stephanos" which is a...

Um, I see your point but don't you agree it is far more important to view these verses in Biblical context First? Historical conext certainly plays a role, I'm not arguing that, but Biblical context is paramount. But, if you would look to history first, then Why the White? Why the Bow...

I've never heard this take on it before. I grew up being taught the white horse was the ac (that'schanged) but never heard that the others were.

Jay, I know the heaviness of a heart that wants to die and I am so sorry that you've been through that ... and I'm so glad you failed in your attempts at suicide ;) You are God's precious creation and He has a beautiful plan for your life. As for my answer to your question, suicide is a...

I hadn't looked this up before, but when I saw Ken's post I had to be a good Berean :) and check into it for myself. So, I looked i upin mt Strong's and lo and behold, it is a stephanos ... a crown of victory. This would go hand-in-hand with the bow carrying the connotation of Divine Victory...

There are many accounts similar to this one Behe ... Great example. In answer to the question ... NO, one cannot be saved if He odes not know the name of Jesus since salvation comes by Him and Only by Him. Without Him, there is no salvation. Acts 4:12 says it clearly and without any room...

Okay, so this is what I get for having to take care of a baby during Bible Study ... I missed wriing down my notes on the bow altogether! I called my pastor and asked him about it and he gave me the verses. Just as with any key word (like the word "white") we often get our answers in a word...

An interesting point, but since this is the revelation of God to John, wouldn't God have made that more clear by saying something like ":a horse that Appeared to be white" or "a horse that seemed white in the eyes of men" or somehing to clarify it? Based on a word study of White in Revelation...

Hi JesusServant. Thank you for your response. I'm not into this to try to change minds, only o see what others think but I do feel like no matter what we choose o believe here, we should be Scriptural about it:) You are right ... it doesn't make sense, and it's also NOT what the Bible...

I have also posted this in the end times forum. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In our Monday night Bible study of the end times we are in Rev. 6 and an interesting point was made that I hadn't heard before. My mind is made up becxause it is a Biblical stance, bu I'm just wondering what everyone else thinks...

In our Monday night Bible study of the end times we are in Rev. 6 and an interesting point was made that I hadn't heard before. My mind is made up becxause it is a Biblical stance, bu I'm just wondering what everyone else thinks. Rev 6:1-2 says "Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of the...

I believe it was Francis of Assisi who said "Preach the Gospel whenever you can, and use words if necessary." Okay, it may not be an accurate quote, but you get the gis of it. I agree that we should lead a life that exemplifies the Gospel. Often, just chatting in an aisle or line at a store...
