Fourth Horsemen's Plague 00:07:59
Before we started today, I was going to read just one verse here from the Revelation because I want to keep you in mind what the Bible says about where we're living right now.
And it says, And when he had opened the fourth seal, and this is the fourth beast or the fourth horse, the horses of the apocalypse that we read about it in the Bible here.
And I looked and behold, a pale, and this is that greenish, pale, the color of death, a corpse-looking creature.
This horse is sick.
And his name that sat on him was death, which means plague or pestilence.
And the power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth to kill with the swords, with hunger.
So this is, you know, and the other horse, the black horse, is starvation.
And it says it with hunger and with death, which means disease or plague, pestilence from the beast of the earth.
So a disease by the animal will circle the globe and cause a fourth of the world to die.
That's what the Bible says.
This is what Jesus says in the book of Revelation.
These are the last days.
So, you know, when I first read it, I couldn't understand how a fourth of the earth could die from animals.
You know, you're not going to have elephants or any tigers or anything.
Can't kill a fourth of the world.
That's millions of people.
That's hundreds of millions of people.
But what it said here is you look at it in the Greek, you'll read that it's the plagues or pestilence or the disease from the beast of the earth that has spread.
So this could be it.
If this is it, we're closer to the coming of the Lord.
It may be next year that this one happens.
But the three horses are riding, and I believe the fourth horse may be riding right now.
It's totally covering the world.
That meets that part of this, that it's a worldwide event, and a fourth of the people of the world will die from this disease if this is it.
Pray to God.
It's not.
But everything in the Bible is going to take place because it has taken place.
It points out to what the scriptures teach us about the clean and the unclean food.
There is food that is prohibited in the Old Testament from eating, and God had a reason for it because they carry bacteria.
They carry viruses.
They carry things that your body cannot absorb.
Well, in China, they're eating bats and snakes.
These are all part of the unclean animals.
People eat them raw many times.
Many times they eat it in sushi.
But the biggest thing with this epidemic, people are saying, oh, don't worry about it.
It's not going to affect you.
It's going to blow over.
Well, this is common flu.
Yeah, this is a new virus.
And you look at that virus back in, you know, 1918 that killed millions.
Well, this is a new virus.
Our immune system is not prepared for this virus.
People are going to have to have church themselves.
And you can do it.
Many of the churches are having church online, as our church is.
But it's in Singapore, the Catholic Church has suspended all public masses.
Even the Assembly of God Church and the Life Church and Mission in Singapore, they've had cases in these churches, and so they've closed down.
And so you don't stop serving God because you can't go to church.
Use it to read.
Use it to study.
The greatest time in prison I had is reading.
Maybe you ought to read the Revelation and see where you're living.
Wouldn't that be good to do?
I think so.
Amen.
Mondo, there's so much happening.
Absolutely.
Just a few minutes ago, New York Times reported New York will restrict most gatherings of more than 500 people.
And they're saying this.
New York will ban most gatherings of more than 500 people, including Broadway shows.
Restrict smaller gatherings in a way that will step up the fight to combat the outbreak of the coronavirus in the state.
Again, this is Mr. Murphy saying we are taking the steps because of the social distances will work to contain the virus.
We are seeing dramatic measures being taken by governors in different states to help people's lives.
The shocking thing is that people are fighting the measures that these governors are taking in order to save people's lives.
This statement from Dr. Scott, he's the commissioner of the FDA.
He says, we're past the point of containment.
We have to implement broad mitigation strategies.
The next two weeks, and watch this, the next two weeks are really going to change the complexion in this country.
We'll get through this, but it's going to be a hard period.
A lot of the experts are saying this is not going to go away anytime soon.
If the reflection of what we're seeing in Italy will take place in America, we're in it for the long haul.
Coronavirus, this is according to Vice News, coronavirus has northern Italy's hospitals on the brink of collapse.
The week reported this.
Trump's former pandemic advisor, he says, and I quote, we are 10 days from our hospitals getting creamed, meaning they're getting ready for the hospitals to be overwhelmed with the amount of patients that are going to come in with the coronavirus.
The biggest dilemma we have in this country is that we don't have enough testing to be able to test people and find out.
That's why Governor Como is taking measures of shutting a whole entire part of New York City.
Orange County is being another part that is being in lockdown.
Washington State is the epicenter of this coronavirus.
Again, the key is what they're telling us, prepare, prepare to be in self-containment.
Otherwise, you are liable to spread this coronavirus like wildfire.
A few days ago, we saw that two of the major NBA players were tested for the coronavirus.
No telling how many people they came in contact with.
Therefore, you're seeing the NBA shutting things down.
NHL just announced a few minutes ago they're canceling all the NHL games.
March Madness is no longer accepting people in the audience.
You're seeing drastic measures being taking place.
Unprecedented.
This has never happened before.
But I'm glad because we don't want to repeat what took place in 1918, where parades were being allowed and one parade changed the course of the history in America.
We don't want to repeat history.
But you know what's so crazy about all this taking place?
At the same time, we're seeing earthquakes taking place in America.
They're not being reported.
We're seeing famines taking place in Africa right now, plagues of locusts just coming.
Video Warning: Hope Next 00:00:30
We're seeing volcanoes erupting.
I mean, we're even seeing shadows of an asteroid.
Could that hit Earth?
What would that do to Earth?
Again, you're seeing biblical proportion events taking place.
And the number one question they're asking, is this the Revelation times?
You have been warning us.
And I hope in the next few days you stay tuned because we found a video of you warning us that something big will come and we are not going to be ready for it.
