THE SEALS

Revelation 6

First Seal: The Conqueror


6 Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals;

[a]

and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like

thunder, Come and see. 2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to
him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.

Second Seal: Conflict on Earth


When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come and see. 4 Another horse, fiery red,
went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one
another; and there was given to him a great sword.

Third Seal: Scarcity on Earth


When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, Come and see. So I looked, and behold, a black
horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures
saying, A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the
wine.

Fourth Seal: Widespread Death on Earth


When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, Come and see. 8 So I looked, and
behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to
them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
7

Fifth Seal: The Cry of the Martyrs


When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the
testimony which they held. 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge
and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth? 11 Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to
them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who
would be killed as they were, was completed.
9

Sixth Seal: Cosmic Disturbances


I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as
sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. 13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late
figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. 14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and
12

[e]

[f]

island was moved out of its place. 15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty
men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, 16 and said to the
mountains and rocks, Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
17
For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?

Seventh Seal: Prelude to the Seven Trumpets


8 When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who
2

stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. Then another angel, having a golden censer, came and stood at
the altar. He was given much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which
was before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the
angels hand. 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth. And there were
noises, thundering, lightning, and an earthquake.

Isaiah 29: 10-11

For the LORD has poured out on you

The spirit of deep sleep,


And has closed your eyes, namely, the prophets;
And He has covered your heads, namely, the seers.
The whole vision has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one who is literate,
saying, Read this, please.
11

And he says, I cannot, for it is sealed.

Daniel 8:26 26 And the vision of the evenings and mornings


Which was told is true;
Therefore seal up the vision,
For it refers to many days in the future.

Daniel 12:9 And he said, Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 10 Many
shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but
the wise shall understand.

2 Corinthians 1:21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us
and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

Ephesians 13:14 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also,
having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the
redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
[b]

Ephesians 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

John 6:27 Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of
Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.

Mark 13:32-37

No One Knows the Day or Hour

But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Take heed,
watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. 34 It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave
authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. 35 Watch therefore, for you do
not know when the master of the house is comingin the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the
morning 36 lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!
