The first six seals have been broken. These are events of God's passive judgement on mankind that lead up to the tribulation and set the stage for the rise of the Antichrist. The first six seals include: 1) the Antichrist (the white horseman), 2) warfare (the red horseman), 3) famine and inflation (the black horseman), 4) more famine, disease, and wild beasts (the green horseman) 5) martyrs in heaven, 6) massive earthquake, sun blackened out, stars falling, mountains and islands rearranging.
