So far in our study of Revelation the imagery and text has been relatively clear. Sure, there has been some symbolism to sort out together, but a vision of Jesus, and visions of the Throne in Heaven, along with the letters to the churches, are fairly clear. This week the drama of the book takes off as the seals of the scroll are broken. It’s the first of three major movements in Revelation – seals, trumpets, and bowls. The first four seals in our passage for Sunday are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. So, fasten your seatbelt and hang on for the ride. I hope we will see that this passage applies powerfully to our lives even with all of its symbolism.
