obadiah777: LOL TPIA I KNOW YOU ARE NOT PLANNING TO JOIN THE LIST OF PHARISEES IN 2013 WITH THIS YOUR UBIQUITOUS SCOFFING grin THIS HERE IS GEM. I TAKE IT YOU ARE INTO PANDA JEWELLERY AND CANT APPRECIATE 24 CARATS. YOU CANT APPRECIATE GEM, CAN YA ? *SMDH* AINT NOTHING JUMBLED UP HERE. STUDY REVELATION 6 VS 1-8 AND ZECHARIAH 6 VS 1-8. IN FACT THE NEW TESTAMENT IS COMPLEMENTARY TO THE OLD TESTAMENT.I COME IN THE VOLUME OF THE BOOK

this is the verse you're quoting. Read it properly, and understand.

You rushed to open the thread without stopping to think about what you were typing.


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!”

2 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.

3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!”

4 Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other. To him was given a large sword.

5 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.

6 Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds[a] of wheat for a day’s wages,[b] and six pounds[c] of barley for a day’s wages,[d] and do not damage the oil and the wine!”

7 When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!”

8 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.

zechariah 6:


I looked up again, and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.

2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black,

3 the third white, and the fourth dappled—all of them powerful.

4 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, “What are these, my lord?”

5 The angel answered me, “These are the four spirits[a] of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world.

6 The one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west,[b] and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”

7 When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said, “Go throughout the earth!” So they went throughout the earth.

8 Then he called to me, “Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north.”

for one, the first passage is singular (one horse per rider), and the second plural, showing they dont necessarily have to be read or interpreted in exactly the same context.

just saying, further study is needed before arriving at any conclusion.

secondly, the latter verses are describing geographical locations, while the former is much more general and not specific to a particular region.

TPIA IT IS OBVIOUS YOU HAVE NOT READ THE BIBLE A DAY IN YOUR LIFE. THE BIBLE IS NOT SOME DISJOINTED COLLECTION OF DIFFERENT ASSORTED OCCURRENCES OF STORIES. ITS A CONTINUOUS STORY TOLD FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. YOU HAVE TO FIND THE COMMON THREAD AND THEN LINK UP ALL THE STORY TO GET THE FULL PICTURE. ONLY WHEN YOU GET THE FULL PICTURE CAN YOU EFFECTIVELY SUPPORT YOUR POINTS WITH VERSES FROM DIVERSE BOOKS IN THE BIBLE. LIKE YOU CAN MAKE A POINT AND THEN SUPPORT IT WITH A VERSE FROM JOB, ONE FROM REVELATION, ONE FROM ISAIAH, ONE FROM MALACHI ETC ETC. ONLY PEOPLE WHO CAN DO THIS IS THOSE WHO HAVE FIGURED OUT THE FULL STORY. SO IT IS NOT A MIX AND MATCH OF VERSES AS YOU SAY. ITS THE SIGN OF SOMEONE WHO HAS THE FULL PICTURE. I CAN MAKE A POINT AND THEN QUOTE TO BACK IT UP FROM AS DIVERSE AS GENESIS TO REVELATION.

AND I WILL LIKE YOUR POST SO YOU CAN COME BACK AND READ THIS POST, NOT BECAUSE YOU MADE ANY VALID POINT grin
