Heavenly Realm and Earth—As the Lamb opens the first six seals, judgments unfold on the earth: the Four Horsemen bring conquest, war, famine, and death; martyrs cry out for justice; and a great earthquake causes terror among all people. Faced with such revelations, how do we respond to God's sovereignty and justice in a troubled world?

The Rev. Jim Daub, pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Havelock, NC joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Revelation 6:1-17.

Shrouded in mysterious visions of cosmic battles, plagues, and catastrophic events, the Apocalypse of St. John, or as it’s more commonly known--the Book of Revelation, paints a haunting picture of the end times. Cryptic symbols of beasts, the rise of the Antichrist, and the final judgment unfold with unsettling intensity, revealing the ultimate clash between good and evil. Yet, beneath its terrifying imagery, Revelation is also a deeply personal letter, offering comfort to early Christians facing persecution. It reassures them—and believers today—of God's control over history, His promise of redemption, and the certainty of Christ's victory.
