Revelation Chapter Six Satans Eviction Notice

“…The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.” (I Corinthians 10:26)

The saints of God are soon going to inherit this earth and rule it with a rod of iron. Remember, the second stanza of their song in chapter five. “And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign (rule – Be in total authority.) on the earth.” (Revelation 5:10) Satan has been the god of this world for six thousand years and has consistently turned the fruitful valleys into deserts and wildernesses. Wherever Satan has authority and dark evil deeds have been allowed, the entire culture slowly turns into a cesspool. “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” (Psalm 9:17) We see it occurring right now all across our nation and in most of the world. Homosexuality and lesbianism is being ballyhooed by the media and the entertainment industry even as the church world is like “… dumb dogs, they cannot bark…” (Isaiah 56:10) But, it is almost over for the devil and his crowd.

Revelation chapter six is the prophetic picture of the beginning of the end for the evil reign of Satan and his horde of spirits and evil mankind. It’s incredibly sad that most of the world had rather serve the world’s god than the Creator God. The whole world system is quickly becoming evil to the core and set against everything that centers in Jesus Christ. The term “god” is becoming a world phenomenon, while the name “Jesus” is utterly rejected and squashed. Most of the church world is adopting the new theology of the One World Church, which is being called “sinner-sensitive” programs. They believe that if you commit not to unsettle the sinner, then they will be delighted to become Christians. It’s the new easy way to hell; and it’s exactly what Jesus said would reign in the last days before He returns to evict the devil from his stolen post as “god of this world.”

ItÂ’s almost impossible to believe that the church world could be so theologically dumb and ignorant of truth. The Book of Revelation has been rejected as to its prophetic values and its chronological picture of the end. You cannot read this book literally and take it literally as our Lord Jesus Christ intended without being overwhelmed with its perfect beauty of what is about to occur. Every evil act and every lifestyle contrary to the Holy Bible is about to be judged by the exact standard of holy truth. Every religious person that refuses to life a godly set-apart life according to the whole Word of God will be brokenhearted at the revelation of the coming judgment of the church. The Scripture declares that “… judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” (I Peter 4:17) The compromise of Bible Holiness is the greatest tragedy ever to occur in the House of God. It will damn an overwhelming multitude of church souls.

SatanÂ’s Eviction
The devil is truly on his last rampage. Once the great celebration of Revelation chapter five is finished, it will be time to begin the opening of the seven-sealed book. This book contains the title deed of this earth and the process of its redemption out of the hands of the interloper named Lucifer. Satan’s six thousand year reign of terror is about to end and he will be evicted from his falsely acquired kingdom. The process of this eviction is extremely thorough and nothing of his evil designs and deceptions will remain. As Daniel prophesied, “And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” (Daniel 2:44) The Son of God, seen as a lamb slain, has earned the perfect judicial right to direct the process and His elders, the glorified Raptured saints, will share the glory of His victory. Let’s begin our verse-by-verse review of Revelation chapter six.

“And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 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.” (Revelation 6:1-2)

The champion of this grand finale is the Lamb of God. His death was more than a sacrifice to cleanse our personal sins; it was the complete sacrifice to redeem this cosmos and to evict the devil out of God’s total kingdom. It was the end of the devil. Satan has been on a leash since that very moment and His saints have been gathering evidence to put him away forever. Now, the process begins. Jesus opens the first seal and we hear a “noise of thunder” as one of the cherubims/beasts says, “Come and see.” These four cherubims, called beasts in our King James Bible, have been evident in Scripture all the way back to Genesis chapter three. They are God’s keepers of holiness in the earth, so any activity of God’s righteousness relating to this earth must include their activity. These cherubims will be manifest on this earth during the entire process of evicting Lucifer and cleansing this earth.

Immediately a “white horse” appears and begins his ride through the earth. Throughout Scripture, “four horses” have been the conveyors of judgment in this earth. They ride together when the Creator God is sending forth His powers to recompense evil and bring it to task. This horse has a “bow and a crown” and he goes forth “conquering and to conquer.” Many see him as the Antichrist, but I see him as representing the going forth of righteousness to judge and to disquiet every work of evil. It certainly can include the releasing of Antichrist activities because the Lamb of God and His servants of cherubims and saints or elders will orchestrate every detail of this seven-year period, and Satan can do nothing except by God’s design and plan.

“Conquering and to conquer” suggests that Satan’s reign of terror is in the process of the end. God is doing the conquering, not the devil. The going forth of judgment is a judgment of wickedness and evil and the conquering of the dark forces that represent Satan’s horde of evil powers and spirits. These four horses are intimately connected and nothing can be said of one without fitting the pattern of all four. They are intimately connected and related to each other as a whole. It’s all the mighty right hand of the Great Judge bringing redemption from wickedness to this universe.

“And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 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.” (Revelation 6:3-4)

Now, we hear the second cherubim crying out as thunder, “Come and See.” There is something stupendous about their cry, “Come and See.” It certainly suggests an effect in the earth that demands attention. This is not entertainment; this is judgment. The process shows that this period will escalate as it continues. Hour-by-hour the earth will grow darker and the judgment will increase as human pain and sorrow explodes. The whole period of seven years will be a full and total judgment of cleansing.

The second horse is the color of red, the color being a symbol of death and deep convulsions of excruciating pain. This horde has power to take peace from the earth and to stir men’s hearts toward a dark desire to destroy. We see this destructive culture developing presently, but only in its early stages. The mass murdering by the worldwide terrorism is just a beginning. Their god is the source of direction for their terror. We have no better proof that false gods are demons that are already showing the coming terror of the future. The theme of this second seal appears as “a great sword” in the earth.

“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. 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.” (Revelation 6:5-6)

The darkness, as revealed in this seal, is now reaching the pandemic stage. This third cherubim cries, “Come and See,” and what we see is sheer horror. The horse is black, showing the symbol of a hellish blackness descending on this earth. The rider of this horse has a scale or a pair of balances in his hand suggesting a famine on a total scale. Now, we see all four of the cherubims together and one cries out with a mournful cry of coming drought, crop failure, starvation, and death. The insanity that follows the disaster of starvation and famine is impossible to describe. Never has there been such a worldwide famine at the same time. To even consider the kind of beastly human behavior during a worldwide loss of the food chain is terror.

“And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.” (Revelation 6:7-8)

Now, the last of the four cherubims issues his cry, “Come and See,” and the fourth horse, pale in color, rides. The horse is named “Death and Hell” because the increasing destruction guarantees death on an unimaginable scale. Literally hundreds of millions of souls are dying, being killed, slain by massacring beasts, and killed by each other. We saw thousands being buried in mass graves after the tsunami in the Far East. At this stage of the seven years of hell on earth, millions will be quickly buried in massive graves that are presently unknown to the human mind. The psychological effects of this period of history will assure insanity on a worldwide scale.

As you read this commentary, you must remember that all of this is a panoramic view of the real Lucifer that is about to be evicted. Every expression of evil is nothing but Lucifer personified. He is more of a beast than man has yet to see, but will in this fulfilling prophecy be impossible to miss. This horse, named “Death and Hell,” is given power over the fourth part of the earth. It appears that one fourth of the earth’s population will be killed by the effects of this horse and rider. At a population of six billion plus, that could represent over one and one-half billion deaths. They will be killed by every possible means, from a sword to starving wild beasts. By this time the earth will be in a worldwide pandemic. The impossibility of burying the dead will unleash disease and malignity impossible to contain. All of this is guaranteed to escalate until the world will be ready to help evict the devil and his army of unclean spirits. The Father will insure that the world learns the true source of all sorrow.

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.” (Revelation 6:9-11)

All hell has broken loose against the multitudes of the professing church that missed the Rapture. The church world, as a whole, has rejected holiness of lifestyle and the separated godly standard of Biblical living. You cannot tell the average professing Christian from the unprofessing world. Self-will is the scourge of todayÂ’s religious movements. Cross-bearing and total surrender of all selfish plans and lifestyles is the one and only standard for a Rapture-ready believer. The Rapture will remove such a small minority of church members that the existing church will hardly catch their breath. Multitudes will suddenly show up at churches looking for answers from unprepared preachers that must hurriedly study the Book of Revelation and other great Biblical books.

At this time, the only hope for the left behind is to prepare to be martyrs for Christ at the terrible cost this period will demand. The One World Church will deny the Rapture as having any significance or will give it a twisted explanation. The multitude of decent people that failed to be prepared will know the truth and will certainly make every effort to repent and prepare for the dark days ahead. Many backsliders and apostates will discover that it is too late to repent and will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

Those that do surrender totally to Christ will be hunted and killed by the gathering group of Christ-haters and Antichrist followers. These souls are heard to cry out for God to judge such a godless crowd that floods the world with their Christ-hating vengeance. The very words of these martyrs reveal the depth of slaughter that men will experience. They cry out from their grave, “Dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” They will be given white robes as they await multitudes of other saints that will repent and be slain. The very wording of this truth suggests that the martyrdom of souls, as they repent, will continue unabridged throughout the seven years of this Great Tribulation.

“And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?” (Revelation 6:12-17)

While varying events are described in this entire chapter, it is important to see all of them as ongoing revelations that will each continue for an indefinite time. This is the beginning of great and unprecedented sorrow. This sixth seal reveals an earth – the very structure of the earth – and the heavens above the earth, all experiencing an upheaval that matches the time of NoahÂ’s great flood. GodÂ’s universe is a united whole and every expression of this universe affects all of its systems. This great earthquake certainly appears to be a one of a kind as never experienced. The sun becoming black as sackcloth of hair appears to suggest the kind of catastrophe that will send such earthly segments into the atmosphere that it darkens the entire sky. Earthquakes often unleash other elements in a domino effect as we saw in the recent tsunami. The moon turning to blood shows the effect our planetary bodies have on each other. The falling of stars says the same thing.

Now, the universe begins to move in such an upheaval that the flood of Noah comes to mind. I believe all of this earthly consternation is actually a redemptive process. The acts of God and the earthÂ’s upheaval would suggest that it is repairing itself back to its original splendor. Mountains that were raised during the NoahÂ’s flood will now be returned to a more garden-like landscape. When the seven years are completed, this world is going to be resplendent and prosperous.

The mighty kings and all earthly authorities are going to see the sources of their power and wealth slipping into destruction. Earthly upheavals of unknown dimensions have filled the greatest of men with insane fear and this will be on a level that our minds are incapable of understanding. It will be a total upheaval. Suicide will become a welcome escape for those that do not know God or that refuse to repent.

This truth shows men praying to the mountains to fall on them and to aid them in death. Finally, the world population admits that God judges sin as they proclaim, “The great day of His wrath is come.”

Conclusion
This chapter is the beginning of Satan’s total eviction from the earth. The world will know that his reign as “god” has proven to be the grand disaster of which the Father had warned. The church must see the Book of Revelation as redemptive and not destructive. Surely, dark and wicked deeds and all their results must be judged, destroyed, cleansed, and purified. It may look like calamity, but so does all the building materials of a mansion and the adjoining gardens when the raw materials are collected and work is just begun. This seven-sealed book contains all the dark transactions, but it also is the blueprint for a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
