November 2015

On January 7, 2015, two gunmen raided the office of the French magazine Charlie Hebdo. November 13-14, 2015 was the worst terrorist attack in French history with strikes at a football stadium, restaurants and music hall. The radical Islamic terrorist group, Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, claims responsibility for the incidents. Other terrorists attacks Australia, Canada, Egypt, Lebanon, Tunisia and United States. ISIS is developing into a varsity Islamic terrorist organization in the Middle East. Radical Islam is at war with western civilization but it is not political correct to be at war with radical Islam. When America refuses to lead, China, Russia and ISIS will lead but not to peace or freedom.

The Arabic acronym for ISIS is Daesh and the plural daw'aish means bigots who impose their views on others. Islamic State (green horse), Russian-Ukraine War and South China Sea (red horse) are world powers fighting against capitalism (black horse), the current ruling power. These horses were at rest during the Persian empire but on the run since the merger of church and state (white horse).

I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white. And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sits still, and is at rest (Zechariah 1:8,11).

In Revelation 6, the Bible describes a map of our end time world. Look and see horses running. Russia and China lead the red horse of war (communism). The black horse of trade is capitalism. Groceries cost a denarius or day's wage but food and wine are available. Since 1588, the United Kingdom and United States lead the black horse. Islam is chloros or green horse of Death. It controls a quarter of the world's population (2 billion) through sword, hunger, death and beasts. The white horse of conquest is apostasy, false religious system within the Christian church. Four horses are fighting to control the world.

He (angel) carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast (Revelation 17:3).

From Babel to Europa, there is a fifth system that tries to unite the political, religious and economic systems. Revelation 13 says during the Tribulation, Antichrist rules the political system (Beast), the false prophet rules the religious system (Woman) and they control people through an economic system (Mark of the Beast). Despite opposition, Antichrist unites the world opposition but is defeated when Jesus Christ returns to rescue His people, defeat His enemies and reign as King of Kings. 

Have you ever wondered what the end of the world looks like? Look at a world map and see God at work among the peoples of the world.
