Revelation tells us that the End of Days will begin with the opening of the first seal, which releases the first of the horsemen of the apocalypse. The second, third, and fourth seal similarly release the remaining horsemen. With the opening of the fifth seal, we witness a more complex scene: And when he had … Continue reading “The Opening of the Fifth Seal”
Attack on the Nation-State
We have argued that there is a strong similarity between the prophecies of Revelation as they relate to the Beast (aka the Anti-Christ) and Jewish beliefs as they relate to their long awaited secular messiah (aka moschiach). Revelation tells us the Beast will come to power over a 10 nation confederation, a merged mega-state, and … Continue reading “Attack on the Nation-State”
