Download or read book The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse written by Kostas Tzouvelekis and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-22 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my previous three (3) books which are: 1) The true Interpretation of the Revelation of John and the Bible 2) The Seven Golden Bowls of the Wrath of God, Book One 3) The Seven Golden Bowls of the Wrath of God, Book Two and which can all be found on Amazon in Kindle and in Paperback form, it must be pointed out that, many important verses of the Revelation of John as well as some significant verses of the Bible, were correctly Interpreted and Published for the first time on a worldwide scale. The present book, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, continues in the same powerful mode and reveals a subject which is very much sought and searched by many people who want to discover the truth about this very powerful issue. I have already indicated the fact that the Bible, which is the Word of God, cannot be Unsealed by anyone no matter how much he tries to achieve this formidable task, unless God Himself gives to him the key of David as stated in the Revelation of John in Chapter 3 verse 7. In addition, I have indicated many times that certain verses in the Bible have been used on purpose, in order to Seal the Scripture, until the right time comes as set by God and only then can the Scripture be correctly and truly Unsealed and finally Interpreted. The fact that what I am offering here as well as in my other books, is the True and Correct Interpretation of the Revelation of John and the Bible is also confirmed by the effortless and simple way that these verses, which were used on purpose I repeat in order to make all other Interpretations null and void, are now easily Interpreted. On top of that, it is quite obvious that the Interpretation offered here and in my other books, is in complete conformity with the World's Historical stratum. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse is a very hot issue right now and it is searched by many people who desperately want to find out the meaning of the White Horse, the Fire Horse, the Black Horse, the Pale Horse as well as their Riders. I want to make crystal clear that there is absolutely no way to provide the true Interpretation of the Revelation of John and of the Bible, prior to the year of 1896 A.D., since this was the year that was Stigmatized by God to be the year of the true Interpretation of these marvelous Books, which undoubtedly contain the infallible Word of God. And because I want to remove even the slightest possible doubt from the mind of the important reader of this book, here is the proof of this tremendous issue. The great Prophet Daniel in Chapter 12 verse 4 was ordered to Shut up the wonderful words that He heard coming straight out of the Golden mouth of Jesus and to Seal the Book until the time of the end where many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. Then Daniel in the same Chapter in verse 7, actually heard the time of the end that these wonderful things will be Unsealed, where knowledge shall be increased, which definitely refers to our epoch where knowledge has dramatically increased. Because as Daniel himself states, He heard Jesus Christ saying that in time, times and half of a time all these things shall be known. Daniel actually saw Jesus Christ Our Lord standing above the Water of the Euphrates River and raising both of His Hands and swearing to Him who lives forever and ever, that a brilliant amount of Knowledge was going to be poured upon humanity in time, times and half of a time. The time period time, times and half of a time, is equal to twelve hundred and sixty (1260) years and it is the time period that the Prime of the Christian Church, the Christian Church of Jerusalem, was displaced to the desert Monasteries of Egypt in order to be saved by the rapid and savagerous expansion of Islam. All this is very clearly outlined in the Revelation of John which is in complete agreement with what the great Prophet Daniel states above. Because in the Revelation of John in Chapter 12 verse 6 and verse 14, the time period of t

Download or read book A History of the End of the World written by Jonathan Kirsch and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2006-08-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[The Book of] Revelation has served as a "language arsenal" in a great many of the social, cultural, and political conflicts in Western history. Again and again, Revelation has stirred some dangerous men and women to act out their own private apocalypses. Above all, the moral calculus of Revelation—the demonization of one's enemies, the sanctification of revenge taking, and the notion that history must end in catastrophe—can be detected in some of the worst atrocities and excesses of every age, including our own. For all of these reasons, the rest of us ignore the book of Revelation only at our impoverishment and, more to the point, at our own peril." The mysterious author of the Book of Revelation (or the Apocalypse, as the last book of the New Testament is also known) never considered that his sermon on the impending end times would last beyond his own life. In fact, he predicted that the destruction of the earth would be witnessed by his contemporaries. Yet Revelation not only outlived its creat∨ this vivid and violent revenge fantasy has played a significant role in the march of Western civilization. Ever since Revelation was first preached as the revealed word of Jesus Christ, it has haunted and inspired hearers and readers alike. The mark of the beast, the Antichrist, 666, the Whore of Babylon, Armageddon, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are just a few of the images, phrases, and codes that have burned their way into the fabric of our culture. The questions raised go straight to the heart of the human fear of death and obsession with the afterlife. Will we, individually or collectively, ride off to glory, or will we drown in hellfire for all eternity? As those who best manipulate this dark vision learned, which side we fall on is often a matter of life or death. Honed into a weapon in the ongoing culture wars between states, religions, and citizenry, Revelation has significantly altered the course of history. Kirsch, whom the Washington Post calls "a fine storyteller with a flair for rendering ancient tales relevant and appealing to modern audiences," delivers a far-ranging, entertaining, and shocking history of this scandalous book, which was nearly cut from the New Testament. From the fall of the Roman Empire to the Black Death, the Inquisition to the Protestant Reformation, the New World to the rise of the Religious Right, this chronicle of the use and abuse of the Book of Revelation tells the tale of the unfolding of history and the hopes, fears, dreams, and nightmares of all humanity.

T H U N D E R I N G H O O F B E AT S B R I N G WA R , FAMI N E , A N D P L A G U E The image of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation 6:1–8 is one of the most vivid and powerful in all the writings of the prophets. Their presence speaks of a coming day of horror—the first four judgments of the Tribulation. White, red, black, and pale, they will wreak destruction around the world. Prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock takes an in-depth look at the horsemen and shows how today’s events point toward the prophecy about them. Signs all around us indicate that the four horsemen of the Apocalypse may be ready to mount up and gallop across the earth. “Mark Hitchcock packs a wealth of information on biblical prophecy into an excellent ‘quick read.’ I highly recommend Mark as a faithful guide to understanding current events in light of God’s wonderful plan of prophecy.” —TIM LAHAYE, author, educator, minister Story Behind the Book The four horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation 6:1–8 is one of the most vivid, powerful visions in all of the Scriptures. The apostle John saw a vision of four horses (white, red, black, and pale) galloping across the world in the end times, leaving unbelievable destruction in their wake. The chilling imagery of that vision has gripped believers for over two thousand years. The purpose of the book is to take an in-depth look at these four mysterious horsemen and show how their approach seems to be developing before our eyes, signaling the advent of that terrible seven years known as the Great Tribulation. The four horsemen are symbolic of great movements that will mark the onset of that climactic era in history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The epic tale of an Argentine landowner’s family fighting on opposite sides during World War I became a worldwide best-selling novel when first published in 1916. Fanatical nationalism tragically triumphs over common sense and family ties, causing horrific destruction and death in a war the likes of which the world had never seen. More than a story about long-ago events, this historical novel is a piercing meditation on modern warfare and a profound warning about the dangers of isolationist nationalism. This first new translation in decades offers a fresh look at a disastrous global tragedy that is eerily relevant to current events in the 21st century. The 1921 American silent film had a huge cultural impact and became the year’s top-grossing film. It turned actor Rudolph Valentino into a superstar and inspired a tango craze and gaucho pants fashion fad.
