The "Signless" Return: Dogma

[lecoop]

Revel said

The First Horseman, riding on a white horse, is given a “bow.†The Greek word for “bow,†toxon, finds its root in a word that means, “to produce. . . , lit. or fig.:â€â€bear, be born, bring forth, be delivered, be in travail.â€Â

What else is to be learned from the “white†horse? Christ and the church appeared to John riding on white horses. Why white? White is associated with holiness and righteousnessâ€â€which is what Christ is: holy and righteous. The symbolism of the white horse is that he brings the standard of Heaven to Earth: holiness and righteousness.

As I have said, the first horse and rider are to represent the church of our Lord. White represents righteousness. Since you brought up the bow, and the "“to produce. . . , lit. or fig.:â€â€bear, be born, bring forth... .

This is exactly what the church is suppose to do: reproduce! hallelujah! this fits perfectly with the white horse being the church.

Hello Vic,

Let begin by saying that we are all responsible to speak the truth in love, and I must say, I failed to live the love of Christ in my last series of posts regarding the seventieth "seven."

I like asking questions for the purpose of provoking thought, but I feel I was out of line with a few of them.

Please accept my apology.

God bless.

Hello lecoop,

Thanks for posting.

Let me say that I am going to take a breather on this thread for a few weeks...

For the moment, let us all rejoice in the knowledge that when the sun turns black and the moon turns blood red, our Lord and Savior will descend in the clouds and we will be transformed immortal!!

God bless.
