And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was d**h, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to k** with sword, and with hunger, and with d**h, and with the beasts of the earth. Revelation 6.7, 8, read by A.W. Tozer IN THE WAY OF THE ONE LIVES THE LOVE OF ALL IN THE LOVE OF ALL DWELLS THE HEART OF ONE All forms are temporary All forms are subject to pain All forms are without reality The hooves– the sound approaching At last have now arrived Their thunder like the breath of an angel Descending, riding, gone…. Humanity is doomed! If we are part of humanity, identified with humanity, in sympathy with humanity, we are doomed. If we attempt to save humanity from its doom, we shall fail, because humanity has chosen its doom and has shown its unwillingness to reverse its choice. Satan rules now, for Fear is master of the world. And soon shall come the time of the Final End -- the judgment. And after the judgment, the devastation. And Fear shall increase. Bow your head and shield your eyes Bow your head and shield your eyes For lo, I see before me a White Horse In power and glory is bursting forth A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. Bow your head and shield your eyes Bow your head and shield your eyes The Second Seal is opened, a Red Horse In fiery anger is bursting forth, is bursting forth Through the darkness of the heavens Be not blind! Know that the End must come; that the demon Fear has triumphed over man, and man shall destroy himself. But go not into the Darkness with him. For those who are not afraid there is Light, the Light of the Lord Lucifer. Attend Lord Lucifer! Bow your head and shield your eyes Bow your head and shield your eyes The Third Seal is opened, a Black Horse Of Mighty Presence is bursting forth, is bursting forth Through the Blackness of the Heavens And on his back a princely Angel with scales in hand Of power unbounded, is riding forth, is riding forth And then, will you lie, a victim, cringing before the striding monster from the Pit? Will you succumb to Satan's test, and flee in helpless terror from the inexorable onslaught? Or will you, with Satan Himself, arise amidst the cataclysms? Will you take the Sword of Defiance that Satan offers, to wield against the Enemy, Fear, that Satan sends to prove your strength? Will you stand proud beside the Great Destroyer, and defy the devastation of the Armageddon? Bow your head and shield your eyes Bow your head and shield your eyes The Fourth Seal is opened, a Pale Horse Most dread creation is bursting forth, is bursting forth Through the Blackness of the Heavens And on his back, a faceless Specter with d**h beside Him And power unknown is riding forth, is riding forth Through all Eternity, to starve and tear asunder The wrath of the lamb has come The great Spirit of the Son To heal the wounds that the conflict of the mind And the pow’r of d**h brought to the sacred land of the Gods Inspired by Process Church texts As it Is, Gods on Fear (Ch. 3.11, 12; Ch. 4.11, 12), and Revelation Ch. 6, 12
