Uncomfortable Reading

We're now getting into the really violent imagery found in Revelation. I said that I would prefer to think of God as being nice and fluffy, a God who likes us and wants to be our pal. What we have in Revelation is martyrs crying out for vengeance, blood for blood and God inflicting horrific suffering to get the worlds attention. Still, violence and these dark side thoughts are part of being human so we shouldn't skip over them. Doesn't make this chapter any easier to read though.

They Ride Among Us!

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are really confusing. I hope that the talk I did sheds some light on the role they play in the world today and in the future. The other part of this is the cry of vengeance from the martyrs which will follow on the 24th.
