Rev. Nate Ruback, pastor of Grace Lutheran Chapel in Bellefontaine Neighbors, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Revelation 6.
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse! Depicted in art countless times over the centuries, they are well known even in popular culture. Are they code for future events?
These riders rather represent the past and the present, the “kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful” of every age (v 15). The colors may be the same white, red, black, and dapple-grey from Zechariah 6, representing those whose power comes from tyranny, warfare, oppression, and disaster in every part of the world. Yet all of these are in the hand of God, and “the wrath of the Lamb” will avenge His people against them. Through baptism we will “stand without fear before the judgment seat” clothed in Christ’s righteousness.
