The Meaning of the Book of Revelation: the Four Horsemen
原作者： Jonathan S. Rose, Curtis Childs
Transparency is needed to sort things out. Before big change happens, God first reveals what’s really going on.
In the Book of Revelation - the last book of the Word - the apostle John describes a series of apocalyptic visions that he experienced during his exile on the Isle of Patmos, in the Aegean Sea.
In one of these visions, he saw four horsemen, the first riding a white horse, the second a red horse, the third a black, and the fourth - named Death - riding a pale horse. These "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" - oft-pictured - are described in Revelation 6:1-8.
What do these horses, and their riders, represent? What do they have to do with us, today? Watch as Curtis Childs and Jonathan Rose explore the hidden Bible meaning of the Four Horsemen in the Book of Revelation, in this video from the Swedenborg and Life Series, from the Swedenborg Foundation.

Matthew第13章:36-43
36
Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field."
37
He answered them, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38
the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
39
The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
40
As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.
41
The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,
42
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
43
Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
