How on earth could you tell if the 5th seal has been broken? The events that it heralds are all otherworldly. Unless you know what's going on in heaven, you can't claim the state of the 5th seal.

Is it not written; My House shall be called The House of Truth, and the armies of night shall come alive to claim their due when the beast looks upon the face of beauty. And when it stays its hand from killing, the seal shall be broken. His overconfidence shall be his weakness, and your faith in your friends shall be yours. And Lo, we shall on that day witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station!

Well, is it written or not? I don't know!

I gave it a quick patch job. It should hold unless it's trying to constrain a sudden surge in religious fanaticism; not perfect, but heaven is really running low on resources at the minute. Damned church keeps making us work overtime to clean up after them.

I mean, honestly, you should hear the PR guys - not a second goes by without some kid ringing up asking for new clothes or those guys out in the 9th sector seeking retribution to the foes of Allah. We reckon someone's got a very elaborate prank-call scam going on.

Ok boys and girls, time for a little lesson in The Seven Seals from Uncle Stone Bridges!

The First Seal - Religious Deception and Persecution

"I watched as The Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest." (Revelation 6:1-2)

Soo, umm, which events coorelates with this? If anything I would actually have to say this started with the Crusades, and it's been going in ever since. Not too clear on this, for I am not a Bibical scholar.

The Second Seal - War

"When The Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword." (Revelation 6:3-4)

Well we've all seen Wars, I mean even the Old Testament had Wars, but I think this War is to be of religious nature. To me, when the Jews re-build the temple in Jerusalem, It will spark a war between the Muslim and the Jews. This is where the Antichrist is susspose to appear, because it is written that the Antichrist will appear from this temple, and start claiming that he is a messenger of God or God himself.

The Third Seal - Famine

"When The Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!" (Revelation 6:5-6)

Let's face it, as the population grows, the reasources like food, water, etc will be smaller. Also couple with the fact that Africa famine will contiune to keep on growing, and as the earth climate changes, it can also mean changes to what happens to our food supply.

The Fourth Seal - Pestilence

"When The Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth." (Revelation 6:7-8)

Bird Flu, the h5n1 virus, HIV/AIDs, stuff like that. The wild beast of the earth could mean earthquakes, eruptions. So basically the earth is going to be a bitch to us now.

Now the first four seals is baiscally whats going to happen to us through nature, through the earth, and through our own actions. The fifth deals with the followers of God.

The Fifth Seal - Tribulation and Martyrdom

"When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of The Word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until You judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed." (Revelation 6:9-11)

If you believe in God, follow God's words as it is written in the Old and New Testament, you are screwed because you will be killed. One could make a case that this has already happened in Hitler's Holocaust, but I dunno. This is also where the "mark" comes in. In the book of Revelations, people will be required to use the mark of the beast in order to live day by day. Some people already think this has happened with Social Security numbers, but the mark would have to have 666 somewhere in it.

The Seventh Seal is broken up into Seven trumpets and Seven Bowls You can read about it here.

So these are the events that are to take place when Jesus comes back to earth. And that concludes this lesson of Theology with Uncle Stone Bridges!

This is a bad start. This passage is refering to Pestilence, not persecution. Don't you know the four horsemen?

The Second Seal - War

"When The Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword." (Revelation 6:3-4)

This is where the Antichrist is susspose to appear, because it is written that the Antichrist will appear from this temple, and start claiming that he is a messenger of God or God himself.

In other words if the Bible is right then we haven't even seen the second seal opened yet, let alone the fifth?

The Third Seal - Famine

"When The Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!" (Revelation 6:5-6)

Let's face it, as the population grows, the reasources like food, water, etc will be smaller. Also couple with the fact that Africa famine will contiune to keep on growing, and as the earth climate changes, it can also mean changes to what happens to our food supply.

Compared to not long ago when nearly everyone was impoverished and unable to afford enough food, even in the west, we seem to be doing pretty well.

The Fourth Seal - Pestilence

"When The Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth." (Revelation 6:7-8)

Bird Flu, the h5n1 virus, HIV/AIDs, stuff like that. The wild beast of the earth could mean earthquakes, eruptions. So basically the earth is going to be a bitch to us now.

Now the first four seals is baiscally whats going to happen to us through nature, through the earth, and through our own actions. The fifth deals with the followers of God.

This rider isn't Pestilence, it's Death. The clue is in the passage where it says 'Its rider was named Death'...

One third of the world's population died of the Plaque, even the most pessimistic of predicitions puts the maximum figure for H5N1 at a quarter of the population, and many predict that it won't be as bad as the 1918 flu.


The Fifth Seal - Tribulation and Martyrdom

"When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of The Word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until You judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed."

Yes, the Christians have never predicted the Apocalypse and been wrong before have they?

Except for the first Christians who thought it would come in their life time.

And the Christians who predicted it in 247 AD, the 1,000th aniversary of Rome and a highpoint in the persecution of Christians.

And the panic which was widespread just before 1000AD.

And the witch hunter who predicted that the end would come in 1697 and then revised the date twice when it failed to happen.

And the Jehovah's witnesses who predicted it in 1874, then 1876, then 1881, then 1910, then 1914, then 1918, then 1925, then 1941, then 1975, then 1984.
