9 - And the angel said to me (disciple John, seeing the vision in his old age while in an island prison) “Write this - Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb!!” {Mt.25:1-13! In the parable of the ten bridesmaids, the door is to serving, called reigning (for logical reason) during the Lord’s long second advent. The door is to the wedding banquet/reception/supper. And the catching away of dead and alive believers - aka the resurrection, called the first (partial collective, eschatological) resurrection, is the wedding, the union.

     “The door” closes to “the” millennium - noT to Life, closed forever. The door is to the wedding supper/banquet/reception and what comes after, up to the second, rest of humanity, eschatological vivification (Rev.21:5, the word “things” was/is inserted). This vivification is not simultaneous with its partner resurrection, but between the second resurrection and the second vivification is the GWT judgment ‘day’. And to “rise into the judgment” (‘day’) Jn.5:29, is to rise “still in ones sins” (not yet perfected). The judgment is the  GWT judgment ‘day’, elsewhere called an aion-ion kolasis (correction, with logical, INITIAL inner torment for some (few? comparatively speaking that is) aka, the condition of misery, being in the inner, outside of the light, darkness ..with gnashing of teeth.. think, for example, of a heartless and cruel despot, rising into the judgment radiance. But Jesus said he “will draw all” - Jn.12:32, so this tormented from within condition will progress to weeping, beating self up.. with many stripes.. And finally to heart and gut wrenching remorse - as he reviews the faces of those he so hurt and harmed, even killed. Think of a modern day child trafficker, where the child goes no one knows.

     But finally, after a while (purgatory flames are psychological) coming to realize ..God, loving Presence/Spirit (Holy Ghost all loving) and mercy.. “Christ Crucified”.. the remedy God instituted, it being strong enough to appease every conscience, even the worst. The initial condition of some is also portrayed in the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22.}

    And the angel said to me, “These are the true words of God!” 10 And I fell at his feet {overwhelmed?} to worship him, but he said, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brethren who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit  of prophecy”. {Meaning it’s all worked out? All laid out.. We just need to be told/shown about it ..and follow, aka, conform. ..To our own, individual, highest blueprint. But it is not, as they say ‘all about me’. Not by a longshot, Lol!}

     11 Then I saw heaven opened, and look! There was a white horse! {The gospel, the Truth, which rode forth “openly victorious over powers and principalities”. Led to the Magna Charter, the Constitution.. individual rights and freedom. Nuclear family culture, some stability for a while..}

     And the one sitting upon the white horse is called “Faithful and True”. In righteousness he judges and makes war {rescues, vindicates, works justice}. 12 His eyes are like flames of fire (penetrate) and upon his head are many crowns. He has a name written that no one knows but he himself. 13 He is clothed in a robe that was dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word/Message of God. {Master blueprint and plan. Embodiment of Truth.} 14 And the armies oF heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. 15 From his mouth comes a sharp sWord (Truth!) with which to strike down the nations, and he will shepherd them (the nations/this is obviously future) with a rod (measuring rod) of iron (i.e. is un-breakable - truth cannot be broken, or done away with). He treads the winepress of the fury [thumos - from thuo - to rush {7 thunders? Well, six..} or to breathe hard] of the wrath [orgé - passion, wrath, indignation, a settled and abiding condition of mind with a view to justice {scales! Cause and effect!} Settled indignation going forth ‘wrath’/consequences] {at cruel and heartless evils, the passion} of God the Almighty. [Isaiah 13:9 - Behold, the day of the LORD comes, cruel, with fury and fierce anger - to make the land a desolation, and to destroy its sinners from off it.] {But as cause and effect. Apocalypse is all man done. Even the final “bowls” called “of God’s wrath” ..The “seven thunders”? Though one is past. Rev.10:4 (over and out, six are future. Didn’t 13:13 pinpoint an oFFice? NoT an individual.. as of yet). Seal six but veiled by its description.} 16 On his robe and upon his thigh he has a name written, “King of kings and Lord of lords!” [Upon his robe - “Inscriptions on the outer garments were sometimes used by distinguished personages. The title anticipates the final victory.. And upon his thigh, upon the humanity he lived” - from biblehub dot com.] {The title and crowns, engraved as in stone, forever, enduring, unchangeable. All of heaven and earth fully convinced. God is Life and he “is Perfect”. Only perfect can work. How do you create genuinely able to think and reason beings, aNd, keep paradise/perfection intact? “Let us” Father and Son “make mankind in our likeness” ..They’re not done yet. “The lion will eat straw like the ox. The bear will graze with the cow” Isaiah 11:7.

36 - As they were talking these things over, Jesus himself stood among them, and said, “Peace to you.”

     37 But this startled them, and they were frightened for they thought they were seeing a ghost.

     38 And he said, “Why are you troubled? And doubts rise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and feet. And see that it’s I myself. Touch me, for a spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones. As you see that I have.” 40 And while he was saying this, he showed them his hands and feet.

     41 While they were joyfully wondering, but not quite able to believe, he asked, “Have you anything to eat?” 42 So they gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he ate it.

     44 Then he said to them, “This is what I told you, that what’s written about me in the Law of Moses and in the Prophets and in the Psalms, has to be fulfilled.” 45 Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. 46 And said, “This is what’s written, that the Christ would suffer, and would rise from the dead [nekros - dead, deceased, lifeless, without life] on the third day. 47 And that repentance [metanoia - a change of mind, change in the inner person, a turning away and to] would be proclaimed, in Messiah/Christ’s name, to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem ..Turning, proclaimed for the forgiveness {the ‘problem’ being God is Life, and “is Perfect” Mt.5:48} [for aphesis - forgiveness, release, remission, cancel of debt, struck from the record, complete pardon] of sins [(greek) hamartia - missing the mark, imperfection]. {The biG cause and effect defeated - the remedy “built in from the formation”/creation - death subdued, overcome by Jesus/Christ Crucified, the rider on the white horse.. the white horse being the Gospel, the Truth ..which “openly triumphed over powers and principalities”. Today’s verses from the letters closely tie in with these gospel (life and 1st brief advent of Jesus) verses.}

     48 And he said, “You are witnesses of these things.”

Galloping Seals - What is Commonly Missed!

The Opening of the Seven Seals, in the Book of Revelation, chapter six, begins with the first four seals being called the notorious "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse". Each of the seven seals are elements of the/a latter age of man, the years of our Lord, A.D.
- When each seal, one through four, are Opened, a horse and rider come galloping. These galloping horses and seals are the progressing elements of the age (the years of our Lord, A.D.)
- Recognizing this is a key to Bible prophecy, and is a major key to understanding the Revelation vision. This fancy footwork of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, is a lock upon the vision, hiding and obscuring much of the vision "for many days".
- The key is knowing that each seal, explained in chapter six is a blend of two things: what that element of the age is when it is Opened, and what it is in its fully progressed (galloped) state at the 'end'. Therefor, things which occur very late upon the planet, are described here, so very early in the Revelation narrative! Most cipherings of these seals are highly misunderstood therefor (not to say each element doesn't escalate as the 'end' progresses). With the first seal and white horse and rider being interpreted as a false Christlike figure known as the 666 man (er, office!) in Christian circles.
- A key to understanding the Seven Seals of God, is knowing they are the galloping, progressing elements of the years of our Lord A.D.
- We also need to know that each seal continues its gallop throughout the rest of the age, peaking at the 'end'.

The Seven Seals of God (The First Seal)

New King James Version (NKJV)
~ ~ Revelation 19:12
His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.
~ ~ John 19:5
Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, “Behold the Man!”
~ ~ Hebrews 2:7
You have made him a little lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
And set him over the works of Your hands.
~ ~ Hebrews 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.
~ ~ Isaiah 28:5
In that day the Lord of hosts will be
For a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty
To the remnant of His people,
~ ~ Revelation 6:1,2
Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, “Come and see.” And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer. (Beginning of the years of our Lord A.D.)
~ ~ Revelation 19:11
Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.

Reading Bible Prophecy 2012, #1

The "four horsemen of the apocalypse" pick up their gallop. The gospel (the first horse and rider, a white horse) picks up its gallop/progression. Then "wars and rumors of war" increase. The 2nd horseman, or element, of the 'latter' age of the year's A.D. is war, a red horse. The 3rd horse's march has to do with trade ("weights and balance" a black horse). All things economic slide. The 4th horseman is called "death" and "the grave" (mass) "follows after him" - this one is "pestilence" including chemical (we've seen this in our age and will see it again). This horseman rides a "pale horse".
- These four horsemen are the first four seals in the Book of Revelation. The 5th seal is persecutions and murders for the faith, and that too accelerates. The 6th  seal is thermal-nuclear winds.
- When each "seal" is described, very early on in the Book of Revelation narrative, they are described in a blend of what they are when first "opened" and what they are at the 'end' in their fully progressed state. [This obscures the Apocalypse vision, a first lock, and key.] This new wind, the sixth seal, was "opened" in 1945, then are seen "four angels at the four corners" (directions, north, south, east, west) "of the world holding back the wind" so it "not harm earth or trees" for a space of time (Rev 7:1). This progressing/galloping element of the years of our Lord A.D. also accelerates, as what's prophesied unfolds and occurs.
- - Matthew 24:7,8 - New King James Version (NKJV) - "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows."
