6. Revisiting the Red Horse and the Tower of Confusion.

In this article, I will be sharing additional thoughts about the Red Horse of Revelation. Please click here to read the first part.

And they said one to another, Go to, let us make BRICK, and BURN THEM THOROUGHLY. And they had BRICK for STONE, and slime had they for morter (Genesis 11:3)

In today's world, a New World Order has been constructed using bricks. These bricks undergo thorough indoctrination (“burn them thoroughly”), rendering each one remarkably similar to the others. They exhibit a uniformity and compliance that often makes it difficult to differentiate between them. Every brick follows the same indoctrination process, leading to strikingly similar ideologies.

I want to emphasize that my intention is not to attack any individuals. It is crucial to distinguish between what the Lord hates and what He loves. The Lord expresses his aversion towards harlotry but demonstrates love towards the harlot, as seen in John 8. He did not state that he hated the Nicolaitans themselves, but rather despised their deeds and doctrines.

The Lord’s Building Material

While the Devil uses bricks to build the Tower of Babel, the Lord constructs His Temple using living stones that are chosen and precious.

To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
1 Peter 2:4

These stones are not random; they are chosen and precious. Each stone handpicked by the Lord possesses its own preciousness and uniqueness.

And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
Revelation 21:19

Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
1 Corinthians 6:19:20

The Holy City of God, with its wall foundations composed of 12 distinct and precious stones stacked upon each other (i.e. dependent upon each other), symbolizes the Chosen People of the Lord. These individuals are joint-heirs of the Kingdom, each possessing their own unique and distinct characteristics, with Jesus Christ serving as the chief cornerstone.

Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone.
Ephesian 2:20

And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and JOINT-HEIRS with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Romans 8:17

The 12 foundational stones of the walls are NOT CHOSEN randomly. The significance of these stones are revealed in the Light that shines upon them from within the City.

And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:5

Let’s go into a little bit of science…

Understanding the characteristics of light is worthwhile. Light is typically described as electromagnetic waves that vibrate in multiple directions.

In photography, a polarizing filter aligns light waves to a single plane. However, by using two perpendicular polarizing filters, we achieve cross-polarized light.

Under normal light sources like sunlight, moonlight, or candlelight, the 12 precious stones typically exhibit a single color. However, when illuminated by cross-polarized light, these stones reveal the vibrant colors of the rainbow, each possessing a distinct appearance. These stones are referred to as "anisotropic" due to their unique composition and structure, which result in a diverse range of colors that vary based on the viewing direction. This composition creates a dynamic mixture of colors in all directions.

These precious stones are chosen carefully as the foundation of the city to illuminate and MAGNIFY the Lord’s glory.

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will MAGNIFY him with thanksgiving. Psalm 69:30

Remember that thou MAGNIFY his work, which men behold. Job 36:24

O MAGNIFY the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. Psalm 34:3

And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord. Luke 1:46

Visualization under normal, single polarized and cross polarized light.

A demonstration of Cross Polarized Light can be seen here.

The Cross represents God's Light (Cross Polarized Light), which differs from the light emitted by the sun, moon, or candle, where the light waves propagate in multiple directions (leading to confusion!).

So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived.
Numbers 21:9

As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning.
Exodus 17:11

When Moses raised the bronze serpent, it brought healing to the afflicted. Similarly, when he lifted his rod during the battle against the Amalekites, the Israelites gained the upper hand. These instances symbolize the dual nature of Light, akin to a double-edged sword, capable of both granting salvation and causing destruction.

And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Rev 1:16

The Light must be lifted up!

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
John 3:14

When the crowd inquired about the lifting of the Son of Man, symbolizing the Cross on which He was crucified and lifted up, Jesus responded by referring to the nature of Light.

So the crowd answered him, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever. How can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?” So Jesus said to them, “The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.”
John 12:34-36

Ritual vs Substance

Whenever an element does not fit, there is always a replacement. It is important to remember that these stones are chosen ones.

To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
1 Peter 2:4

For many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 22:14

It is crucial to bear in mind that even among the called ones, such as the 12 apostles or the 12 tribes of Israel, replacements occurred.

For instance, Judas was replaced among the 12 apostles, and in the case of the 12 tribes of Israel, Dan was replaced.

Similarly, the ritualistic ephod worn by the priests under the Mosaic law consisted of 12 stones, and one of those stones, which exhibited an undesirable property, was eventually replaced.

The 12 stones worn by the Priests

And you shall put settings of stones in it, four rows of stones: The first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and an emerald; this shall be the first row; the second row shall be a turquoise, a sapphire, and a diamond; the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They shall be set in gold settings.
Exodus 28: 17-20

The Lord specifically utilizes the diamond, a stone highly regarded as precious by humankind, as the sole isotropic material in contrast to anisotropic materials. The diamond does not exhibit the colorful illumination of the rainbow under cross-polarized light.

This highlights the flaw of religious rituals and emphasizes the need for them to be replaced with a superior substance.

The Substance is Christ in You, the Hope of Glory!

And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 
Revelation 22:22

And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
Revelation 22:5

The sun, moon, and candle are regarded as symbols of guiding lights. In ancient times, people relied on the light emitted by these celestial bodies and candles to illuminate their path. We have the choice to utilize the light from the sun and moon, which vibrates in multiple directions and can cause confusion, or we can opt for the symbolic "cross-polarized Light from within” that comes from the Lord.

And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. Mark 5:9 —> confusion!

In current times, the many directional light manifests itself through various guidelines, often concealed beneath the guise of false virtues. These guidelines include mandates such as:
- wearing masks “to protect others”,
- practicing social distancing "to protect others”,
- taking boosters “to protect others”,
- using inclusive language “to safeguard minority rights”,
- employing paper straws “for the sake of the climate”,
- supporting Ukraine “to protect the innocent”,
- celebrating Pride month “to uphold the identity of marginalized communities”.

But hold fast to what you have…

Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, THAT NO ONE MAY TAKE YOUR CROWN.
Revelation 3:11

The Crown is placed on the head, symbolizing your mind: independent thoughts that are unique and precious.

We do not need the light that comes from the sun, the moon, or the candle. When Jesus died, the Light was freely given to all who accept it by faith. From that point in time, the inhabitants of the world are given a choice. They can continue to seek guidance from the sun and the moon, or they can choose to seek guidance from the Light that comes from within.

Those who choose to remain outside the temple rely on the "light" that comes from the sun, moon, and stars. Those inside the temple rely on the light from within.

“A Physical man-made Temple taking many directions from the Sun and Moon. In a physical building but “outside the temple of God”

But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months.
Revelation 11:2

When the light comes from within, there is no longer a need to delegate our thinking to external sources.

You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
1 Thess 5:5

If you possess independent thinking with Christ as your cornerstone, welcome to the Temple of God!
