7 End Times Prophesies from Revelation

The Fourth Seal - Plague

This fourth seal reveals the horseman of death. "And I looked up and saw a horse whose color was plae green like a corpse. And Death was the name of its rider, who was followed around by the grave. They were given authority over one-fourth the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals" (Revelation 6:7-8). This horse and its rider will be responsible for further bloodshed, accounting for the death of one-fourth the earth's population. Those dying at it's hand will go to Hades--the place where unbelievers go following death. This seems to indicate that the world might not be heavily populated with Christ-followeres at this time.
