Verse number eight, I want you to notice something, though.
Because it said the rider on the pale horse,
and I want you to see something.
Go back to verse seven, verse seven.
And when he had opened the fourth seal,
this is the Lord opening the fourth seal,
I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, come and see.
And I looked and behold a pale horse,
and his name that sat on him was Death.
His name is his, singular or plural?
Singular, right?
One rider on the horse, one rider on the pale horse.
His name that sat on him was Death,
and hell followed with him, okay?
Hell follows this rider on the pale horse.
But notice, and power was given on to him or them?
Power was given on to them over the fourth part of the earth.
There's a difference as it goes from him to them.
It goes from singular to plural.
This is why you need a King James Bible, my friend.
You can't study the Bible with an NIV
or a New King James or all that garbage.
And we know that at this church,
but I just kind of want to point that out.
But it says power was given on to them instead of him.
This is different than all of the other seals.
Go back to Revelation six, verse two,
and I'll show this to you.
I'll show you how this is much different.
I'll tell you why it says them instead of him.
So maybe it's an error in the Bible.
Look, you need to find a new church, my friend.
Revelation chapter six, verse two.
And he that sat on him had a bow.
This is the Antichrist.
He that sat on him had a bow,
and a crown was given on to him,
and he went forth conquering and to conquer.
Singular, singular, singular.
In verse two, am I right?
Verse two, it's singular.
The rider on the white horse, the Antichrist.
Verse four, verse four.
And power was given to him that sat there on
to take peace from the earth
and that they should kill one another.
Now, when it says they should kill one another,
what that's saying, the reason why that's plural,
he has power to take peace from the earth
and you have all kinds of people fighting one another.
So basically when it says they should kill one another,
he is the one with the power that started that,
and what he's doing is causing people to kill one another.
But it's not them as in plural getting to do this.
It's one person still, okay, in verse four.
And it says, power was given to him that sat there on
to take peace from the earth and they should kill one another
and there was given on to him, singular, a great sword.
Once again, it's singular.
Revelation six, verse five where it said,
and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
He that sat on him, that is singular.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say,
a measure of wheat for a penny
and three measures of barley for a penny
and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
So what you're seeing with the first three seals
is it remains singular with that horse,
the rider on that horse.
Why does it remain singular?
Because before the abomination of desolation,
basically, there's chaos happening
in a lot of different areas.
One powerful man's doing this,
one powerful man's doing this,
but they're not organized into one system yet, okay?
All of this chaos is happening,
but what will end up happening
during the beginning of sorrows with all this chaos,
it will lead together into a unified system.
And there's a rider on the pale horse,
but now as you have all these systems come together,
all of a sudden it's one global entity
and power's not onto him, but them.
But then you need a person to run that global entity.
That's gonna be the Antichrist.
So the them is coming because all of these things
that were basically doing their own thing,
they are coming together as one.
Look, events like the coronavirus,
it will bring together all these world leaders
and say, we need to get together on the same page, my friend.
And that's what's gonna happen
during the three and a half years.
That is why it says onto them
because now they're getting together as one
and now what do you need?
You need somebody running this ship.
Obviously the devil's the ultimate guy running this,
but the Antichrist is gonna be the one used to run this.
Now here's the thing.
During the first seal, they weren't ready for it
because it wasn't them yet.
It was individuals.
But now at the fourth seal,
all of a sudden they're ready for it.
And that is when the Antichrist's gonna step in.
There's gonna be war in heaven.
There are places found no longer in heaven.
And then all of a sudden the devil's gonna use
the Antichrist to be that leader,
the abomination of desolation.
And then we move on to great tribulation.
