THE FAITHFUL WATCHMAN CHRONICLES THE RIDE OF THE FOUR HORSEMEN
In Revelation 1:10 The Apostle John states that he was “in the spirit on the Lord’s day (the day of the Lord).” Revelation 1:19 states, “Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter.” Therefore, the seven seals which are opened in Revelation occur in the day of the Lord.
The first four seals are commonly referred to as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The Faithful Watchman chronicles the ride of these horsemen as an educational service for the public and a warning for those who have ears to hear (Rev. 2:7).
The Church of God’s Faithful can prove that the day of the Lord has begun. For more information about The Day of the Lord and the ride of the Four Horsemen visit our website at setapartbytruth.org.
Understanding the Watchman Categories
The Faithful Watchman follows world events in light of the warnings and prophecies found in the Bible. The categories below help readers understand why certain events deserve our attention.
These reports are intended to help us watch and consider world conditions. An event placed in a biblical category is not, by itself, proof that a specific prophecy has been fulfilled.
White Horse
Revelation 6:1–2; Matthew 24:4–5, 11
The first horseman rides a white horse and carries a bow. Jesus Christ warned that false prophets and religious deception would lead many people astray. This category follows religious movements, false teachings, and efforts to deceive people in matters of faith.
Red Horse
Revelation 6:3–4; Matthew 24:6–7
The second horseman rides a red horse and is given power to take peace from the earth. This category follows wars, armed conflicts, military threats, and growing tensions between nations that could lead to bloodshed.
Black Horse
Revelation 6:5–6; Matthew 24:7
The third horseman rides a black horse and carries a pair of balances. The Bible describes high prices for basic food. This category follows famine, food shortages, rising food costs, and economic troubles that make it difficult for people to meet their basic needs.
Pale Horse
Revelation 6:7–8; Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11
The fourth horseman rides a pale horse, and his name is Death. This category follows deadly diseases, widespread outbreaks, disasters, and other conditions that threaten large numbers of lives.
Heavenly Signs
Luke 21:25–26; Matthew 24:29; Revelation 6:12–14
Jesus Christ spoke of signs in the sun, moon, and stars. This category follows unusual events in the heavens, including eclipses, celestial activity, and other developments that may be important to watch. Not every unusual event is a fulfillment of biblical prophecy.
Perilous Times
2 Timothy 3:1–5; Matthew 24:12
The Bible warns that the last days will bring perilous times. Paul described people becoming selfish, violent, dishonest, and lacking natural affection. This category follows civil unrest, riots, lawlessness, moral decline, and growing problems in society that reflect these conditions.
Christian Persecution
Matthew 24:9; John 15:18–20
Jesus Christ warned that His followers would face hatred and persecution. This category follows threats, violence, imprisonment, and restrictions against people who profess Christianity.
Not all who call themselves Christians are necessarily God’s Saints. However, persecution of those who act in Christ’s name is real and may also affect God’s faithful people.
Warning
Ezekiel 33:6–7
The Bible describes a watchman who warns people when he sees danger approaching. This category covers serious threats and harmful developments that deserve attention, such as growing national debt or dangers to public safety and freedom.
Warning is used when a danger can be identified but the article does not fit another, more specific category.
Watching
Mark 13:37; Habakkuk 2:1
Jesus Christ instructed His followers to watch. This category follows important events, decisions, and changes taking place in the world whose future effects are not yet clear.
These developments may become more important over time. Watching is used when an article does not fit another, more specific category.
Good News
Proverbs 25:25; Daniel 11:34
The Bible reminds us that good news brings encouragement, even during difficult times. This category shares reports of people receiving help, lives being saved, freedoms being protected, and suffering being reduced.
Acts of kindness, courage, and mercy remind us that hope and relief are still possible in a troubled world.
‘Glitter Blessings’ and Women Pastors Who Say ‘Queer’ a Lot
Today, we’re going to start with a woman pastor (shocker) preaching a “sermon” about Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. That account from John 4 is a powerful tale of truth and redemption. And then there’s Rev. Liz Edman’s take.
According to the website of a conference she spoke at, “Liz Edman is an Episcopal priest and political strategist who has been igniting people’s understanding of Christianity and queer life for more than 25 years.” Edman wrote a book called “Queer Virtue: What LGBTQ People Know About Life and Love and How It Can Revitalize Christianity.”

The Most Important Prophetic Sign Of All Has Bloomed Right Before Our Eyes
When Jesus walked throughout the Promised Land 2000 years ago, Israel was already past its prime. The golden era under David and Solomon had come and gone. Divided into Israel and Judah, the Jews had been conquered by the Assyrians and Babylonians and carted off into exile. Fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah, Cyrus had encouraged Jews to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. Waves of exiles returned from the east, repopulating the Land—even as Samaritans and others now shared the territory once known as Israel.

Mardi Gras Draws Ire Of Christians In Australia After Open Mockery Of Jesus
Sydney was once again the host city for a Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which ran from February 14 to March 2, 2025. This year, the parade itself (which is often a magnet for controversy) was held on Saturday, March 1. The theme for this year’s festival was “Free to Be”. After witnessing one such moment, where a drag performer was pointing a spear at a person dressed as Jesus Christ, it is clear that some participants wanted to exercise their freedom to be blasphemous! The question that organisers and participants need to reflect on is this: why is it only Christianity that is always mocked and attacked? Why not Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and others? Well, whether they realise it or not, they are being inspired by the adversary to attack the truth.

AI-powered church service in Germany draws a large crowd
On Friday, over 300 people attended an experimental ChatGPT-powered church service at St. Paul’s church in the Bavarian town of Fürth, Germany, reports the Associated Press. The 40-minute sermon included text generated by OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot and delivered by avatars on a television screen above the altar.
The chatbot, initially personified as a bearded man with a fixed expression and monotone voice, addressed the audience by proclaiming, “Dear friends, it is an honor for me to stand here and preach to you as the first artificial intelligence at this year’s convention of Protestants in Germany.”

Federal judge temporarily blocks Louisiana law requiring Ten Commandments in classrooms
A Louisiana law requiring schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom has been temporarily blocked by a federal judge, who ruled it coercive and unconstitutional. The law, set to take effect January 1, was challenged by nine families, who argue it violates the First Amendment by endorsing religion in public schools.
The state’s Attorney General, Liz Murrill, vowed to appeal the decision, defending the law as recognizing the Ten Commandments’ historical significance in U.S. law. The law mandates 11-by-14-inch posters of the commandments with a contextual statement in schools receiving state funds, including colleges and universities. Schools may accept donations for the displays but are not required to purchase them.

Pastor Claims Calling Jesus ‘The Savior’ Is A ‘Stumbling Block’ To Church Attendance
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Without due vigilance to obey the command to rightly handle God’s truth, it’s easy to allow our own thinking, our emotions, or the ethos of our cultural moment to shape our interpretation of Scripture. That’s one reason why my father always taught me to start with God’s Word—when we read, study, and apply God’s Word to our lives and recognize that it is our authority, it will keep us from error.

Transgender ‘Jesus’ Art Causes Outrage at Tennessee University
There is great fury at the University of Tennessee at Martin over an art display that blasphemed the Christian faith. One painting depicted Jesus Christ as being transgender. Another featured a man dressed in clerical robes cutting up a lamb.
One outraged resident called it “an utter embarrassment for a State of Tennessee public institution.”
“Disappointed and embarrassed that the University I call home would let something like this be displayed for the public eye to see,” an alumnus wrote. “Poor representation of our community and our love for Christ. You can be whatever you want to be. But leave Jesus out of it.”

Who will be the next Pope? Here are the contenders to watch
Selecting a new Pope is a complicated process. While in theory any Catholic man can be selected, in practice, this process is limited to the 253 cardinals from around the world. These candidates will gather in Rome upon the Pope’s death or resignation.
This voting process is called a conclave. It will be held in the Sistine Chapel and will occur over various rounds with some candidates being unable to be elected as Popes due to their age — the newly elected Pope has to be under the age of 80.

Top Law Professor Calls Gov’t Education An Unconstitutional Establishment of Religion
Government education of children funded by taxes represents an unconstitutional establishment of religion and as such, it violates the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment and protections for religious liberty, warns Liberty University Law Professor Jeffrey Tuomala in a powerful new paper.
Tuomala’s unequivocal conclusion that state “education” must go joins a growing chorus of legal arguments seeking to fundamentally re-think American education. Indeed, more and more prominent legal minds are now openly arguing that government schools violate the Constitution and must be shut down.

Progressive Christianity Watch: Trans Lord’s Prayer, DEI Babylon, and Who’s Afraid of Losing Federal Cash
We already know that the left ruins everything it touches. This includes Christianity.
Progressive Christianity is loaded with dangerous heresies, but it’s also ripe for ridicule. A few stories I’ve seen this week highlight both of these truths about progressive Christianity.
Let’s start with a video from St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Essex, Ontario. It’s a heretical version of the Lord’s Prayer that the folks at Protestia call the “most cursed version” of the prayer.
