“The Last Book: The Book of Revelation, Part Two - "The Horsemen and the Trumpets” by Dr. Frederick K. Price delves into the profound meaning and timeline of end-time events as revealed to John, the last Apostle of the Lamb.

Let’s explore the key themes and insights from this study:
  1. The Glory Given to God in Heaven:
    • In Revelation chapter 4, John is lifted up to heaven and witnesses a place of constant worship. The 24 elders (representing the twelve tribes of Israel and the twelve apostles) and the four living creatures (representing the four evangelists) continually sing praises to the Most High God.
    • The heavenly host glorifies God with the refrain “Holy, holy, holy.” This emphasizes the eternal worship and majesty of God in the heavenly realm.
  2. The Recognition of the Lamb of God:
    • In chapter 5, John sees the Lamb (representing Christ) who holds a scroll containing the mysteries of Divine judgment and the consummation of all things.
    • The Lamb’s role is central to the unfolding events. His sacrifice and victory over sin and death are pivotal to God’s plan.
  3. Connection Between Saints on Earth and in Heaven:
    • References throughout the text highlight the close relationship between the saints on earth and those in heaven.
    • Despite suffering and warfare, God limits punishments and grants time for repentance and conversion. Heaven is filled with those who have endured suffering for Christ.
Now, let’s focus on the seven seals mentioned in Revelation:
  • Seals One through Six:
    • These seals are dealt with quickly in chapter 6.
    • The first four reveal the memorable “four horsemen of the apocalypse”:
      • The white horse signifies conquest.
      • The red horse represents the loss of peace on earth.
      • The black horse symbolizes famine.
      • The pale horse brings death, afflicting one-fourth of the earth.
    • These horsemen serve as harbingers of judgment and turmoil.
  • Seal Seven:
    • Seal 7 previews Jesus’ return and connects all judgments to the Lamb.
    • Rather than focusing on specific human events, the Book of Revelation emphasizes spiritual implications and God’s battle against evil to draw all people to Himself.
Remember that the Book of Revelation uses symbolic language, and its eternal implications transcend our earthly understanding. It invites us to be vigilant and faithful as we await the fulfillment of God’s plan.
