Revelation Chapter 6 (R06-2)

            Second Seal

Rev 6:3-4  When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come and see." Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.

Fiery red horse – much bloodshed
Take peace from earth – unrests, rebellions, riots, wars, skirmishes.
People killing one another – civil wars caused by racial, religious, tribal and political unrests.
A great sword – multitudes will be killed in a very short period.

    In the late 80's, there were more than 100 civil wars, skirmishes and unrests worldwide. In 1991, after US, EU and coalition conquered Iraq, Muslims demonstrated to show their dissatisfaction and some went into terrorism killing many innocent souls. In early 90's, some unrests and uprisings developed into serious civil wars, and those with tens of thousands massacred were found in Rwanda, Chechnya, Ethiopia, Bosnia, Burundi, Somalia, etc.
    UN (esp. US) was tasked with the difficult mandate to bring peace to all these warring nations.
    In 1993, US President Clinton succeeded in bringing the Jews and Palestinians to sign the abominable PLO-Israel Peace Treaty of land for peace, thus fulfilling the prophecy of the opening the First Seal.  
    However, without God's approval, there was no peace in Israel as the Palestinians daily took to the street causing civil unrest, street protests, skirmishes and killings until the Israeli government had to build an 8 metre high wall to separate them.

Fulfillment of Second Seal
   On 6 April 1994, after the plane of the President of Burundi was shot down, all hell broke loose. The great sword with one stroke killed almost one million souls within a short period of three months.
    I believe this Rwandan Genocide was the fulfillment of the opening of the Second Seal.

This 2nd Seal - Rwandan Genocide was not recorded in Mat 24 because it was in Central Africa. The end time signs taught by our Lord Jesus in Mat 24 concern only the temple of God, Jerusalem and Israel.

Wikipedia: The Rwandan Genocide was a genocidal mass slaughter of Tutsi and moderate Hutu in Rwanda by members of the Hutu majority. During the approximate 100-day period from April 7 to mid – July 1994, an estimated 500,000 – 1,000,000 Rwandans were killed, constituting as much as 70% of the Tutsi and 20% of Rwanda's total population.

Civil Unrest and Wars
    Since the Rwandan Genocide and within two years, UN was successful in bringing peace to almost all the waring states by giving them financial helps and incentives resulting to some sort of peace worldwide.  
    The 1997 Financial Crisis caused the poor in third world countries to suffer hardship and hunger, leading to the 2011 Arab Spring, where all Arab nations were affected.

Arab Uprising and ISIS
    The Arab Spring developed into the Arab Uprisings with civil wars and rebellions in many Arab countries. By the end of February 2012, rulers had been forced from power in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya with civil uprisings erupted in Bahrain and Syria.
    In March 2013, the atrocious ISIS (Danesh) took over the Syrian city of Raqqa and then many parts of Syria and Iraq.
    All these wars and atrocities against mankind forced the Arabs to flee their devastated homeland, resulting to millions upon millions of Muslim refugees entering the rich and stable West.
Note  - meanwhile the proud and mighty LGBT community strongly supported by US President Obama, UN Human Rights, and leaders of EU had turned the West into Sodom and Gomorrah. They persecuted and forced godly Christians to accept homosexuality, which will lead them to damnation.
    The presence of these fervent Muslims, who pray on the streets and abhor homosexuality, brought fear into the LGBT community thereby suppressing their abominable street processions and persecutions.
