them into a scroll aud have the scroll |
at seven different places sealed with |
sealing wax. You unroll the scroll until |
you come TO one Of those seals. and then |
you can go no farther until you break
that seal. Then uuruil ugain until you
come to another seal. and you can 90
farther until yuu break that seal Then
you 20 on until all the seven seals are
broken and the contents of the entire
scroll are revealed. Now that scroll
with seven seals held by the angel was
the prophecy OF what was TO come on
earth. II meant that the knowledge OF
the future was with God. and no man
and no angel was worthy TO open II,
but the Bible says Christ opened il and
broke all the seven seals. He broke The
| first seal and unrolled the scroll, and
there was a picture of a white horse,
and that meant prosperity and triumph
for the Roman empire. and so il really
came to pass that for 90 years virtuous
emperors succeeded each other-Nerva.
Trajan and Antoninus. Christ in the
vision broke the second seal and I'M
rolled again, and there was n seal of
red horse. and that meant bloodshed.
and so il really came to pass. and the
next 80 years were red with assassinA.
tions and wars Then Christ broke the
third seal and unrolled II. and there
was picture of u black horse, which
in ali literature means famine, oppres.
sion and taxation and so il really came
to pass. Christ went on until He broke
all the seven seals and opened all the
scroll. Well. the future of all of MS is in
sealed scroll, and am glad that no
one but Christ can open il. DO not let
us join that class of Christians in our
day who are trying to break the seven
seals of the future. They are trying to
peep into things they have no business
with.
DO not go to some Gecromancer OF
spiritualist or soothsayer or fortune
teller to find out what is going to hap
pen to yourself or your family or yOuI
friends. Wait till Christ breaks ;he
seal to find out whether in your own
personal life or the life Of the nation
or the life of the world il is going 10 be
the white horse Of prosperity or The RED
horse of war or the black horse OF fam
