In the Horse Stalls of Impending Judgment - Finding the Right MountReader comment on item: Ending a Century of Palestinian Rejectionism Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Nov 4, 2015 at 17:14 In eschatological terms, whether we discuss the things happening before our TV eyes of attempt to delve deeper into the 'things that are approaching' due to the Biblical checklist of prophecy, both are compelling, each in thier own way. The 'Revelation' or the 'Apocalypse of St. John' has been in this student's study of things Biblical for decades, even before becoming a disciple of Yeshua; and successively each time, only a little bit more was added to the understanding; that is until September 11, 2001. A peculiar thing; though the horsemen of John's vision are intriguing, that they are replications of Zechariah's horsement in Zechariah's Chapter 6, which provided a contrast/comparision moment, a deciding distinction being they are sent for specific emblems of executing the LORD's edicts that leaves little need for imagination of determing His will in all matters, especially those concerning Israel. How do the 'Palestinians' figure in all of this as they attempt to exert their own agenda of usurping control of the promise to the rightful heirs of Abraham's son, the Son of David and His true followers. Now the horses that troop will be riding will be more impressive than the four of Chapter 6; for their presence is to witness the final WORD of power expressed over Jerusalem. The question remains: will one be trampled under foot during the release of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse; or will one accept by faith the truth of the shed blood Yeshua and be mounted with the tens of thousands of the redeemed mounted on a white horse of our own when Jerusalem is received back into His kingdom. As Indiana Jones was told while he searche for the cup of Christ: "choose wisely;" for eternity hangs in the balance.......
