The Scroll and Horsemen of the Book of Revelation

Book excerpt: God gave Jesus a revelation to show his servants things which must come to pass. In the revelation we see a scroll, written on the inside and on the outside, sealed with seven seals. As each of the first four seals are opened we see a horseman. What is the scroll? Who, or what, are the horsemen? How will we discern what or who they are? How will we know we have discerned correctly? Many others have attempted to identify the scroll and horsemen. This book will not attempt to refute each and every identification they have made, nor discuss every possible identification. The approach is to show that the evidence fits a single scroll and a single set of horsemen. If this approach is successful, then it will effectively rule out all other scrolls and horsemen. This book will not attempt to discuss the first horseman's bow and the green color of the fourth horseman as there is too little information available to discern them. The scroll will be identified first using the evidence regarding the scroll. Then each horseman will be identified using the evidence regarding each horseman. The question about discerning correctly will be answered by showing how - the horsemen fit together - the horsemen fit the scroll - the scroll and horsemen fit the book of Revelation and show us things to come.
