16.1 The White Horseman of Revelation 6
— The First of the Four Horsemen —
Gravity
The four horsemen of Revelation 6 appear to be congruent with the Four Natural Forces. The white horseman is highly similar to Gravity.
| The Horse and the Force | ||
 The White Horseman of Revelation 6 | ||
| Gravity | ||
| Sequential: First | ||
| The white horseman is the first of the four horsemen to show up. | ||
| Gravity is the first force to break free from the Grand Unification. | ||
| The living creature: Lion | ||
| The Hebrew word for lion, 'ary, comes from the verb 'ara which means to gather up or gather together. A lion was seen as 'one that gathers'. (Judges 14). |  | |
| Gravity always attracts; never repels. This in contrast to electromagnetism, the other long distance force, which is represented by a horseman carrying scales. | ||
| The color: White | ||
| The word for white in Hebrew is bad and this word is also used to indicate a certain garment that was both white and seamless. And even though whiteness of skin is not very positive in Scriptures (usually indicates either leprosy or arrogance) whiteness and seamlessness of garment is. The white horseman returns in Revelation 19 where it carries the one called Faithful and True, Word of God, King of Kings, Lord of Lords. Many have comfortably connected the white horseman of Revelation 19 to the one of Revelation 6, and also to Jesus Christ, for obvious reasons. When Jesus was crucified soldiers cast lots for His garment because they didn't want to tear it up as it was seamless. | ||
| Gravitons are too small to be observed individually. Gravity has the appearance of a continuum. | ||
| Attribute 1: Crown | ||
| Gravity rules the universe. Its range is indefinite and gravitational pulses move at the speed of light, and in the very fabric of space-time. Gravity is the force that governs, like an emperor, the universe's large scale goings on. | ||
| Attribute 2: Bow | ||
| The bow is a long distance weapon based on the tension that comes from bending a stick. The sword, with which the green and red horsemen are equipped, is a proximity weapon, as these horsemen represent the two local, nuclear forces. |  | |
| Gravity is a long distance force. It is able to do what it does through space-time curvature. | ||
| Activity: Conquering | ||
| Gravity is the only force that can overcome all other forces and structures. When a large star collapses and a black hole forms, gravity takes over completely and all traces of particles and other forces are erased. | ||
