    Each seal opens a new chapter in the book sealed with seven seals. The contents of the book under the second seal are revealed in symbol form in the seventh and eigth verses of Revelation Chapter 6.


    Revelation Chapter 6 Verse 7
    And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

    This article is one in a series of studies on the Seven Seals - you are currently on the topic that is in bold:

    The Lamb opens the fourth Seal

    Jesus, the Lamb of God, opens the fourth seal just as he opened the first three seals.


    The fourth beast

    The last six-winged beast, which looks like an eagle, says "Come and see." Like the Gospel of John (the fourth book protecting the testimony of Jesus Christ, and giving witness to the book of Acts), the eagle declares that a prophet will arise to anounce the coming of the Lord and expose the Devil. Under the anointing of the eagle the Church is carried by the wind of the Holy Spirit above persecutions and false doctrines, and back to the faith of the Apostolic fathers.


    Revelation Chapter 6 Verse 8
    And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

    The pale horse

    A horse is a power, and pale is a mixture of the three previous colours. Pale is a mixture of religious, demonic, and political power.

    “He had three powers or three--three jurisdictions: the earth, heaven and purgatory. He is himself a trinity. That's what he's made up of, and he rides in a trinity. His power's in a trinity. His crown's in a trinity. His horse is in a trinity.”

    (Sermon: The Fourth Seal)

    The rider named Death

    This rider is the same Antichrist spirit that rode the white horse, and the same false prophet that rode the red and black horses. This rider is the mature Nicolaritan spirit in the form of a man, but could not be identified without the vision of a prophet.

    "First, antichrist, white; second, false prophet, red; third, vicar of heavens and earth and--and purgatory, black; fourth, the beast, pale horse, Satan being kicked out of heaven. You want to read that? Revelations 12:13, Satan being kicked out of heaven...Then in Revelations 13:1-8, he is incarnate in the person of the beast."
    he's Satan representative on the earth; that he now is head of the kingdoms of the world, the very same kingdoms that he offered to the Lord Jesus in Matthew 4, Satan now becomes a full king.” (Sermon: The Fourth Seal)


    Power over the fourth part of the earth

    Currently, 33% of the world's population claims to be Christian (http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html), while 17% of the worlds population claim to be Catholic (http://cara.georgetown.edu/bulletin/index.htm). One interpretation would be to expect this 17% to increase to 25%, or to expect an alliance between Roman Catholic and certain Protestand or Orthodox churches to increase this to 25% by association.

    Just as the white horse rode conquering and to conquer, the pale horse is given conquering power over a fourth part of the earth through his doctrine.


    The sword, hunger, death, and hell

    The sword is the power of the red horse, hunger is the power of the black horse, and death is the power of the pale horse. Hell follows natural death, and reveals the end of the Antichrist's rule on the earth. Hell also signifies spiritual death.

    • Revelation 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
    • Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
    • Revelation 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

    The sword by which Satan will be killed is the Sword of the Word of God.

    “Jezebel, the wife of the false prophet which is supposed to be the genuine prophet of God: the pope (Right.), the genuine prophet and his wife Jezebel. Now, Ahab was supposed to be a genuine Jew, but he was a rascal; you know that. Because his wife just led him anyway he wanted to. We find out Jezebel takes her money and leads these the way they want to too.”
    "“Before He passed judgment upon her, He gave her a place to repent. And it's in the Name of the Lord I say this: He's give the Protestant church the same thing, and she won't do it. These messages shook everywhere, and she won't do it. She's going to have her own dogmas and creeds; I don't care how much you explain it.”
    “Like He give Egypt, He give Egypt place to repent. What was that last plague? Was death. That's the last plague that's hit the Pentecostal church. It's spiritual death; she's dead. That's in the Name of the Lord. She's spiritually dead.”


    When will the Pale Horse Ride?
    • The white horse rider started without a crown,
    • The red horse rider started without a sword,
    • The black horse rider started without boundaries, and
    • The pale horse started without power over a fourth part of the earth.

    William Branham prophecied that the fourth horse rider is on his last ride now, but has not yet been given power over the earth, the sword, bread, or death. Some of his comments indicate exactly when he will rise with this power:

    “Judas took the place as treasurer and fell by money. So does the church of this day...here's where he fell, and there's where the Protestants fall.”
    “and that's exactly the same thing that the Protestant church becomes a harlot is because she rejects the vindicated Truth of the Word of God, and that gives the devil a place to come right in and incarnate himself, and he will make an image unto the beast when they can consolidate together,”
    And now, seeing the holy Bride, he is against her, but he forms his own bride called antichrist by antichrist teaching, which is contrary to Christ. See how shrewd he is? And now, instead of having a unity of love controlling worship under Blood, he's got a denomination.
    “This pale looking, grizzled colored horse, mixed with black, red, and white, coming into the battle, gathering his subjects from every nation under heaven. Did not Daniel interpret the dream and seen that streak of iron running to every kingdom, of Rome?”
    “Rides a pale horse as he appears on his ride, this last ride. He's on his last now. Now, that is not in our day. That will be on down. It's the Seal foretold. 'Cause, see, the Church has done gone up when this happens.”
    Now, the battle started in heaven. It'll be finished on earth in the form of Armageddon.

    William Branham also pointed out that when Jesus comes, he will ride a white horse, and his name will be "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS" (Revelation 19:16) Out of his mouth will go a sharp sword, which is the Word of God, and he will call the fowls of the air to a great feast of the flesh of man (Revelation 19:15, 17). This prophecy reveals that the last Pope and the Christian denominations will be eaten by wild animals just like Ahab and Jezebel were eaten by animals as prophecied by Elijah.
