Revelation 6:9-17; As the Lamb opened the first four seals of the scroll, the four horsemen were summonsed by the four living creatures to bring judgement and death upon the earth. When the 5th seal was broken, instead of another form of punishment for sin, John saw souls in heaven under the altar of the Lord. They called out for justice to avenge their wrongful deaths, but were instead given a white robe and instructed to be patient “a little while longer“. The Lamb then broke the 6th seal, which gave the martyrs a glimpse of a massive earthquake and extreme cosmic events which heralded the end of the eschaton. Those left alive were hiding in caves and calling the rocks to fall of them so they could avoid facing the wrath of the FAther and the Lamb.
