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.
Worshipping Madness: The New World Order Demands A New god
In 2015, there was an online viral phenomenon centered around the colour of a dress. Was it blue and black or was it white and gold? This unanticipated drama divided households, businesses and, seemingly, the entire planet. At its peak #TheDress appeared in 11,000 tweets per minute. However people perceived the colours of the dress, it was impossible to see it differently, despite the exasperation and insistence of those who saw it in the other colours. I mention this because of the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics. Did we witness a mockery of The Last Supper or was it, as claimed, the Feast of Dionysus? The world is, once again, divided and both sides are standing their ground on what they perceived. However, this time, we are not simply dealing with the colour of a dress. We are dealing with demonic deception on a global scale.

George Soros, Andy Stanley, and the left-wing plot to end Evangelicalism
Evangelical leaders are selling out to the LGBTQ agenda, and Daily Wire reporter Megan Basham, who just released her new book “Shepherds for Sale: How Evangelical Leaders Traded the Truth for a Leftist Agenda,” has the receipts.
“You have organizations that claim to be ministries that are taking funding from secular, left-wing, gay lobbying groups,” Basham tells Allie Beth Stuckey on “Relatable,” noting that the Arcus Foundation is one of them.
The Foundation was founded in 2000, and it’s the country’s largest LGBTQ grant maker.

In the year of our Lord 2024, check out this list of college courses in witchcraft and magical spells 😑
While most universities in America may have started out as seminaries dedicated to the study and propagation of the Gospel, they’re a far cry from those foundations now.
I’m not talking about their jaunt down the path of secular humanism, because, as it turns out, that path was just a detour back to the occult and paganism.
Once the bastions of logic and reason, universities are now pushing spell writing and tarot card reading as academic pursuits.

Israelis practise red heifer ritual in front of Al-Aqsa Mosque
A group of religious Israelis have been pictured practising the ritual of the red heifer, which is meant to herald the building of a new Jewish temple on the site of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
According to Jewish tradition, the ashes of a perfectly red heifer cow are needed for the ritual purification that would allow a third temple to be built in Jerusalem.
That temple, say radical Jewish groups, must be constructed on the raised plateau in Jerusalem’s Old City known as the Temple Mount, where Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock shrine stand today.

Federal judge delays posting of Ten Commandments in Louisiana public schools
A federal judge blocked Louisiana from posting the Ten Commandments in public schools until November after parents from five districts sued the state over the law.
In a brief ruling Friday, district court judge John deGravelles said that the parents and the state agreed that the Ten Commandments will not be posted in any public school classroom before 15 November. The state also agreed to not “promulgate advice, rules or regulations regarding proper implementation of the challenged statute”.

‘Eco-Theology’: The Latest Departure From The Faith
If I was to use the word “theology”, most Christians would have an accurate understanding of what it means. However, for the benefit of those who may be unclear, the word is composed of two Greek words: theos (“God”) and logos (“word”). In the literal sense, the study of theology refers to the study of words about God, specifically the revelation of God through His true and trustworthy Word. Therefore, the knowledge of God is the goal of theology.
Now, what if I used the word “ecotheology”? Well, if you want to know more, this is an excerpt from the Harvard Divinity Bulletin: “This course surveys constructive religious reflection, drawn from a variety of religious and spiritual traditions, that is informed by an ecological worldview and accountable to various forms of environmental activism. In constructing the syllabus, I sought to include constructive or ‘theological’ texts from as many different religious traditions as possible. As a result, the course functioned as an introduction to comparative theology as well as to the ways people of diverse faiths think about environmental issues.”

Oklahoma State Superintendent Mandates Biblical Instruction in Schools
School districts, principals, teachers, parents, and perhaps even a few students in Oklahoma were likely surprised yesterday by a letter from Ryan Walters, the state superintendent of public instruction.
Walters’ letter informed superintendents across the state that all schools must incorporate the Bible, including the Ten Commandments, into the curricula for all students in grades 5-12. In the message, Walters said:
The Bible is one of the most historically significant books and a cornerstone of Western civilization, along with the Ten Commandments. They will be referenced as an appropriate study of history, civilization, ethics, comparative religion, or the like, as well as for their substantial influence on our nation’s founders and the foundational principles of our Constitution. This is not merely an educational directive but a crucial step in ensuring our students grasp the core values and historical context of our country.

Israeli politician carves stones to build Third Temple
Avideo was posted on social media showing former Knesset member Moshe Feiglin near the town of Eli carving stones for the Third Temple.
“This was a very moving experience for me,” Feiglin told Israel365 News. Feiglin recited a special prayer before taking up a hammer and chisel to carve a large stone. The prayer asked that just as we carve the stones to serve God, He should form us to serve Him. And that just as the stones will be steadfast in the service of God, so should we be steadfast in our unity and love of our fellow man.
“We are in a very special generation,” he added at the end.

Pope Francis Laments ‘Mother Earth Violated and Devastated’
ROME — Pope Francis has denounced the arrogance of those who seek dominion over nature, which leads to the degradation of the environment.
In his annual message for the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, the pontiff urges people of faith to embrace “creation as an earthly paradise, mother earth, which is meant to be a place of joy and a promise of happiness for all.”
Harmony among men and women “should also be extended to creation,” he writes in the message released Thursday, “in a sense of responsibility for a humane and integral ecology, the path to salvation for our common home and for us who inhabit it.”
