I would like to start this post out by stating that I believe that Jesus is the entire reason that the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse may be coming. I believe that because of what happened over 2000 years ago with the naming of Jesus as the “Messiah”, the “false christ”, had triggered the chain of events that will happen in the book of Revelation.
Now I have many reasons to believe what I am telling you. I only hope that I can possibly share these reasons in a way that possibly will make some of you understand what I am trying to say.
The First Horseman Of the Apocalypse
Revelation 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
Zechariah 6:11 Accept their gifts, and make a crown from the silver and gold. Then put the crown on the head of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
As you can see from the verse above that the Lord of Hosts is making a crown from silver and gold to be put on the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak. Yeshua translated to english is Joshua.
The Second Horseman of The Apocalypse
Revelation 6:3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
Now for the second horseman as you can see he is given the power to take peace from the earth. That they should kill another. And there was given a great sword. Now read the verse below.
Matthew 10:34 Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. · For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter in law against her mother in law.
As you can see from this last verse from Matthew, Jesus is openly telling everyone that he is not here to bring peace. He is here to bring a sword. He is openly admitting that he is here to set children against their parents, and couples against their in-laws. Now I do not see how much clearer a verse in the Bible can be when it comes to telling us something.
Especially when you look at what it is saying in regards to the 2nd horseman. This second horseman is given power to take peace from the earth. Just as the 2 witnesses are given power over the waters, and plagues. And the Beast from the sea is given power to do as he will for a period of 42 months.
I believe they all go hand in hand. The horseman comes in with a sword to take peace from the earth. There has not been much peace on the earth since Jesus came over 2000 years ago. Has no one ever wondered why a God who claims that he is going to save us would come to the earth, get himself killed by the ones that he was supposed to be saving, while telling the ones he was supposed to be here saving, that he was not here for them? And he goes through all of this just so as that he can leave the whole world, wondering around in confusion? It doesn’t make any sense to me.
The Sword
Jeremia.h 25:27 “You shall say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, “Drink, be drunk, vomit, fall and rise no more because of the sword which I will send among you.
If you will notice that here in the above verse we have the Lord of Hosts stating that he will be sending a sword amongst the people so they can rise no more. This verse below is also the Lord of Hosts speaking.
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in, he shall be there.
The messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in, he shall be there. Jesus was the messenger. And you can tell that there is sarcasm dripping from the words of the Lord of Host as he says this.
Revelation 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;
Revelation 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace;
The Third Horseman Of the Apocalypse
Revelation 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
With the third horseman I believe this is an after effect of the first 2 horses. For the third comes in with a pair of balances in his hand. Saying a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measure of barley for a penny. And to not hurt the oil and the wine. Now I believe in this one they are talking about how the world will now be out of balance.
Every since Jesus came to earth, and supposedly died for our sins, things have been very off balance in my opinion. No matter how you look at it, there is not any balance hardly left in the world. Whether you want to look at it as the United States versus other countries, or the entire world’s money supplies and who controls most of the money. The rich are the powerful, and they are the ones in control of everything.
Our World Is Completely Out Of Balance
Check out all of these articles and headlines that will show exactly how out of balance our world really is becoming.

\”Ed Conway, the economics editor at Sky News, wrote in a thread on Twitter that access to documents revealing the data concerning taxable capital gains helps “solve an economic puzzle: why were official inequality measures narrowing when anecdotal evidence suggested the gap between rich and poor was widening?”
As you can see from all of the above articles that this world is completely out of balance! It is completely ridiculous that my neighbor had to move into an apt inside of our trailer court, leaving his camper that his father had left him as part of his inheritance, because they will not let him get his water turned back on in his name. The reason they will not let him turn it on in his name is because he had his water turned off three times in one year. I really do not understand how this is legal. Considering that there is only one water company in our small town of Connersville. I mean we are talking about water. That is a basic human need. Not a want. A need! But because you cannot pay your bill and get behind 2 months, they shut you off. And even though you pay your whole bill up, and pay whatever fees they think you should have to pay to get it turned back on, you have had this happen 3 times in a years time. So guess what? They take it upon themselves to now decide that you are now not allowed to turn your water back on at the residence that this happened at. Not under your name at least. All of this is ridiculous if you ask me. But what makes it even more ridiculous is thinking about it after reading the headlines on wealth inequality in the world. And how sickening it is that some people have so very much, while others in the world can not afford to pay their water bill every month with the check they are provided from the government! We seriously need to wake up!
The Fourth Horseman Of the Apocalypse
And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. Revelation 6:7
So with this horse comes death. And with the death, hell is following with it. Now let”s look at a few different verses in the Bible.
Hell And Death
Isaiah 28:15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:”
So with the above verse it looks to be that the people have made a covenant with death. And with hell they are at agreement. Stating also that they have made lies their refuge, and under falsehood have they hidden themselves. Now stop and think about how Jesus made a covenant with the people back when he was here over 2,000 years ago. And they did this at the last supper. He told them that if they ate of his flesh and drank of his blood that he would give them everlasting life. I will just leave it at that as we look into some of the other verses that pertain to Jesus and death.
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 3:23
This verse shows where Jesus speaks to the church and states that he will kill Jezebel’s children with death.
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Revelation 1:18
In the above verse take notice of how he states that he has the keys of hell and death. And what is funny is if you fast forward a little to a verse in Revelation where they are sounding the trumpets you will see when the 5th trumpet is sounded it states,
And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. Revelation 9:1
As you can see from the verse above that the key to the bottomless pit is given to a star that falls from heaven to the earth. Well as we all know, the star (angel) would be the devil (Dragon) who falls from heaven to the earth.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation 12:9
The Morning Star
Now let us explore a little further into this falling from heaven to earth and what it has to do with the Morning Star.
Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”Revelation 2:4
Now check out a verse in Isaiah.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! Isaiah 14:12
As you can see the above verses are very similar. Remember from whence thou art fallen and repent. And then we have \”How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! And you will understand all of this a little better with the next verse.
\”I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.” Rev 22:16
As you can see Jesus is testifying to the churches that he is the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. And I am taking this obviously to mean that he is the son of the morning star! People can try and explain it away all that they want to. But it is right here in your Bible people! If you are going to call yourself a Christian, I just think that you should know exactly what is in your Bible. And hopefully this will be a wake up call for at least. a few of you. To go home and open up your own Bibles and try to find your own answers. Before it is too late. Now let\’s look at another verse where Jesus is addressing the 7 churches.
Now once again we have the morning star. And it does not sound very good if you ask me. He is telling the church that if they stay true to him that he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and as the vessels of. apotter shall they be broken to shivers. Even as he received of his father. And he is going to give them the morning star. So this is their prize? To be ruled with a rod of iron? And they shall be broken to shivers? They shall get exactly what his father gave to him. And they get the morning star for their loyalty.
Which I guess is better than him completely denying even knowing you. Like he says in this verse of Matthew.
On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers‘“ (Matthew 7:21-23)
As you can see there are many times throughout the New Testament that Jesus gives us some major hints as to why he was here. But most just refuse to see them. Just like when Jesus admits he is not here to bring peace.
Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother…Matthew 10:34
He comes with a sword. Not to bring peace, but to take peace. Just like the 2nd horse when he comes in. \”And there went out another horse that was red: and power … they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.\” Revelation 6:4
Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. Hebrews 5:11
It seems to me that the people seem to have some issues with their hearing according to Jesus and Paul. Seems like there have been many warnings given but people have been trying to cover up a lot of it. And then you will have people just not wanting to really read the Bible and question anything in it. For I am sure many times people have been accused of being of the Devil if they question things in the Bible, such as these verses I am showing you.
Jesus Saving And Keeping His People With Him
Now let us explore some verses that pertain to Jesus keeping his people from the temptation to come and making sure they will be where he will be. We will start off with the verse from Isaiah up above.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid:” Isaiah 28:15
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Rev 3:10
Sounds to me like Jesus is saying that he will keep his people that made the covenant with him from all of what is going to come upon the earth. Yet as you can see in the verse from Isaiah there is someone else stating that this will not be.
In My Father’s House are Many Rooms
In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going, John 14:2
So if you will notice how in the above verse Jesus is talking to his disciples and telling them how he is going to prepare a place for them. And he is going to come back and welcome them into his presence. So that they will also be where he is. Now check out the verse below when they are talking about who will be burning for worshiping the beast and his image. They say basically that he will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the lamb. And most everyone knows that Jesus is referred to as the lamb.
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out no more: Revelation 3:12
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascends up forever and ever: and they have no restday nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name. Here is the patient of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Revelation 14:9
Now from the verse above that I just mentioned up above, we also have the last sentence where it is telling us who will be the ones who are going to be tormented with fire and brimstone. And it states that “here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. This seems to be a very bold statement. And there are other warnings in the Old testament concerning where people will be keeping their faith. Check out this verse in Habakkuk.
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.” Habakkuk 2:3
The Seraphim
“Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.” 4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.” Isaiah 6:2,4
And I said: “Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!” Isaiah 6:3
Seraphim are angels with 6 wings. The word means “the burning ones.
And one cried unto another and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. Isaiah 6:3
And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. Rev 4:8
Creation Of God
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Now here is where I will point out how it states in Revelation 3:4, that he who is saying these things is the faithful and true witness, and also the beginning of the creation of God. They are always saying that Jesus is a new creation. I have also read that when they are talking about the 7 signs, Jesus is like the 8th sign. Because he is a new creation. Now with the creation of God, we also have below talking about how Jesus purchased the church of God with his own blood. And how grievous wolves will enter in among you.
Acts 22:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Spirit hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, 6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
And with the above verse you will notice how they talk about Jesus being the first begotten of the dead. So this would go right along with the creation of God and Jesus being of the 8th.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17
This leads me into another part in Revelation that tells us a lot about who will be coming. Read this next verse from the book of Revelation.
“And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. 11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.” Revelation 17:10
As you can see this verse tells us a lot about what is happening concerning the 7 kings. 5 are fallen. One has not come. And one has been here. But the one that has been here is not. And he is of the seven and he is the 8th. Now how can someone be one of the 7 kings, and yet still be considered to be the 8th? The answer is simple. He would have had to been here before, and is coming back! And this is Jesus Christ! Whom we have named our messiah.
And I believe this is how he is going to get almost the entire world to worship him. For when he comes for his second coming, the entire world will be in awe of him. There will probably be people leaving their religions in order to convert to Christianity. I mean why not? Obviously these Christians have it all figured out. Their Messiah came back just like he said he would. And it states in Zechariah that the people will grab hold the skirt of a jew and say we will go with you. For we have heard that God is with you.
“Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.” Zechariah 8:23
As we see it is once again the lord of hosts who is stating these things. Now let us look a little more into what the Lord of Hosts will be doing.
“Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously“. Isaiah 24:23
Now if the Lord of Hosts is actually our God they are referring to then why on earth is the sun ashamed and the moon confounded when he is ruling gloriously?
And it shall be, that whoso of the families of the earth goeth not up unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, upon them there shall be no rain. Zechariah 14:17
“Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.” Rev 3:9
Forcing people to worship seems to go hand in hand with the Lord of Hosts and Jesus.
Why all the New Names?
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.” Rev 3:12
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.” Rev 2:17
I find it strange that they are always talking about having new names in the verses I have enclosed. I find it strange because if you will look at this next verse from Hosea you will see how changing your name can really throw some people off possibly.
Hosea 2:16 “It shall come about in that day,” says the LORD, “That you will call Me Ishi (my husband) And will no longer call Me Baali (my Baal).
Hosea 1:10 “Yet the number of the children of Israel Shall be as the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered. And it shall come to pass In the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There it shall be said to them, ‘You are sons of the living God. ‘
Why Is Everything Burning In Relation To The Creation Of God And Jesus?
I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.” John 10:28
“And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;” Rev 2:18
Daniel 7:10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
(Rev 5:11) \”And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;\” 12 Saying with. aloud voice, worthy is the lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, glory, and blessing.
The above two verses are almost the exact same except for one little detail, one calls him the lamb and the other calls him the beast and the horn. Which now brings me to our next verse in Revelation.
As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.” Daniel 7:12
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;” 2 Corinthians 4:1
As you might have noticed in the last two verses I have shared they are speaking of how the rest of the beasts had their dominion taken away, and yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time. And then we have from 2 Corinthians how Paul is stating that they have this ministry, as they have received mercy. I put those two together because it sounded as though that may be exactly what he was talking about. I know that no one can ever be sure and I am sure that most people would disagree. But when I found this verse last night, it struck me as very similar to how everything seemed to be going down in Daniels vision. For he started with how he beheld because of the words that the horn spoke. All the way until they destroyed the body and gave him to the eternal flame. Then they go on and speak of how the rest of the beasts lives were prolonged, yet their dominion was taken away.
Now what makes me sure that they were talking about Jesus in these visions is because of how very similar the vision of Daniels was to the vision of Johns in the book of Revelation. They are both stating the same events. The numbers and everything are the same. The 10,000 times 10,000 and thousands of thousands. Exactly the same. The biggest difference would be that in Johns’s vision, he states the lamb, and in Daniels’s vision, he calls him the beast. And if you did not know about the ‘He Gets Us” ad campaign that started up for improving Jesus’s name and brand then check out my post “What does it mean that Jesus will be coming on the clouds of heaven?” post. Very interesting how this ad campaign started off with $100,000,000 paid by anonymous sponsors in the beginning. And this just happens to be the exact number that 10,000 times 10,000 equals out to be.
Then, in between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb, standing as if it had been slain. It had seven horns and seven eyes..Rev 5:6
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.” Rev 19:15
Jeremiah 19:11 And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as [one] breaketh a potter’s vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury [them] in Tophet, till [there be] no place to bury.
Sound familiar? Up above we were discussing how Jesus states to one of the churches how he will give them the morning star after he states that he will be ruling them with a rod of iron and like vessels of a potter thet shall be broken to shivers. Even as he received of his father.
Jeremiah 25:28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Ye shall certainly drink.
Habakkuk 2:13 Behold, [is it] not of the LORD of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity.
Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;” Hebrews 2:14
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Romans 10:4
“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” Romans 8:1
“For behold, the Lord will come in fire. And His chariots like the whirlwind, To render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire.“ Isaiah 66:15
Spirits Of Devils Working Miracles
Revelation 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:” Acts 2:22
Acts 5:11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.12 ¶ And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.
The Lord of Hosts And Searching The Reins And Hearts
Jeremiah 11:20 But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I revealed my cause.
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 3:23
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Now if you will notice the first two verses I have included above. In Jeremiah it states that the Lord of Hosts who judges righteously and who triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them. And then in the next verse I have Revelation and it states that I will kill her children with death, and all the churches will know that I am he who searches the reins and heart. So basically it is stating that he is the Lord of Hosts. Something I have been trying to put together for people to see that there are two different Lords that are talking in the Bible.
Two Different Lords Or Prophets?
The head is the elder and honorable man, and the tail is the prophet who teaches lies. … The aged and honorable, he is the head: and the prophet that teacheth lies… Isaiah 9:15
“And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war ...Rev 13:4
And I think that it makes perfect sense. The Lord of Hosts is the Lord over his angels and all the earth. Then you have the Elohim. That would be the God over everything. Like a tier system sort of. And this is shown when you look at the verse in Daniel.
Daniel 4:17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
So whos children are we really? It is obvious that there will be many on the side of the Devil and many on God’s side. But I believe many of us should be looking into all of this a little better so we know exactly who it is we are standing by.
But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by the Lord their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen. 8 Now when she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son. 9 Then said God, Call his name Lo-ammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God. 10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.” Hosea 1:7-10
It shall come about in that day,” says the LORD, “That you will call Me Ishi (my husband) And will no longer call Me Baali (my Baal). For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth So that they will no longer be mentioned or remembered by their names. Hosea 2:16
“For your husband is your Maker, Whose name is the LORD of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth. Isaiah 54:5
If you will notice in the above verses that there is a lot of talk about changing names. Now we have Baal basically changing his name to Ishi. Which meant (my husband). And then in the verse right after it I included where they are talking about how your maker is your husband, the Lord of Hosts is his name. And your redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. And they call him the God of all the earth. I believe this states what I have been trying to point out in my posts about the Lord of Hosts and how he is a seperate God in the Bible from the others they speak of.
Because of the verses above speaking of how the Lord will tell them that he will not be their God, and he then goes on to tell them that they are sons of the living God, I believe that rests my case on the Lord of Hosts. I am sure not everyone will agree with me on that, but I find it to be true. And makes perfect sense when you look at who and what the Lord of Hosts is. If you would like to know more about the Lord of Hosts then check out my post “Who is the Lord of Hosts?’
Warnings Of The Coming Of Jesus And The faith
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.” Habakkuk 2:3
“Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.” Hebrews 10:38
“Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people:” Habakkuk 2:5
“And Jesus turned water into wine”
“God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.
4 And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power.” Habakkuk 3:3
“And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.” Zechariah 13:6
As you can see from the above two verses there are some warnings in the Old Testament about light and hands. One is warning about how there are horns coming out of his hands and there is the hiding of his power. And the other is talking about wounds in his hands. And how he will admit that he was wounded in the house of his friends. They both seem like very bold warnings if you ask me concerning Jesus. For was he not supposed to have been nailed to the cross by stakes through his hands and his feet?
“I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled! Luke 12:49
He makes the winds His messengers, Flaming fire His ministers. Psalm 104:4
And the light of Israel will become a fire and his Holy One a flame, And it will burn and devour his thorns and his briars in a single day. Isaiah 10:17
He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal. Luke 13:32
“For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” 2 Corinthians 11:2
“Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds.” Colossians 4:3
