18 The Tribulation Begins

The apostle John as speaking in this verse stating what he is seeing in God’s Throne Room. The Lamb (Jesus) has taken the scroll and opens the first seal. One of the four living creatures, which are the Cherubim, says with a very loud voice COME! The word come is the Greek word erchomai; Strong’s # 2064 and can mean either to come or go. It is signifying the cherubim’s command to the horse to either come forth from where it is onto the world scene or to go forth into the world scene. Remember the scene is in heaven so the horse is in heaven but the event that gets activated on earth in time and space is different than what the heavenly scene depicts.
John then describes what he sees as a white horse departing with a rider who receives a crown and comes forth conquering, present tense and to conquer future tense. The present tense shows us his nature as a conqueror and his program, to conquer. Both of these are important to observe since we will examine who this individual is and what he is going to do. This is the coming world leader we call the Antichrist. This first seal brings him forth to lead and conquer the earth.
