The Four Horsemen and You - BETTER TIMES ARE AHEAD!
The present times of trouble will soon end. Remember this: Jesus "went out conquering" in 1914, confining Satan to the earth, but Jesus did not then complete his conquest. (Revelation 6:2; 12:9, 12) Soon, during Armageddon, Jesus will remove Satan's influence and will destroy the Devil's human supporters. (Revelation 20:1-3) Jesus will not only terminate the ride of the other three horsemen but even reverse the effects of their destructive ride. How so? Consider what the Bible promises.
Instead of war, peace will reign. Jehovah "is bringing an end to wars throughout the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear." (Psalm 46:9) As for peace-loving people, "they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." -Psalm 37:11.
Instead of famine, there will plenty of food. "There will be an abundance of grain on the earth; on the top of the mountains it will overflow." -Psalm 72:16.
Instead of plague and death, there will be perfect health and eternal life for all. God "will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore." -Revelation 21:4.
When Jesus lived on earth, he provided a heartwarming preview of future conditions under his rulership. He promoted peace, miraculously fed thousands, and cured the sick, and even raised the dead to life again. -Matthew 12:15; 14:19-21; 26:52; John 11:43, 44.
Jehovah's Witnesses would be delighted to show you in your Bible how you can be ready when the ride of those horsemen ends. Will you accept an invitation to learn more?
THE FOUR HORSEMEN REVEALED
WHITE HORSE
The rider pictures Jesus Christ. He began ruling in 1914 and will soon complete his conquest, ending all suffering.6:1, 2
FIERY-COLORED HORSE
The rider represents warfare. World wars and smaller conflicts have taken countless lives since 1914, Revelation 6:3, 4.
THE BLACK HORSE
The rider denotes famine. Food shortages have ended or ruined lives of tens of millions, Revelation 6:5, 6.
PALE HORSE
The rider brings premature death due to disease and other factors. The Grave gathers up the victims, Revelation 6:7, 8
