When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. (Jesus Christ died and He took the reigns of death and Hades as He descended into Hades to set mankind free) And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. (Jesus became SIN on the Cross and took it to HELL and left it there) And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth,(1/4 of EARTH is dry land) to kill with sword,(The WORD) with hunger,(Hunger for God leads to death of SELF) with death,(Praise God, Jesus has set us all free from the second death!) and by the beasts of the earth.
