UN Writer Claims Four Horsemen Are in Somalia

14th Century Tapestry of the Third Horseman of the Apocalypse

The Bible is tells of a time that there will be food shortages and serious food inflation:

5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6)

Is this now starting to happen?

Interestingly, someone from the UN indicates it has:

Horsemen of the Apocalypse stalk Somalia

Korea Times – Oct 21, 2011

By John J. Metzler, United Nations correspondent.

UNITED NATIONS – The four horsemen of the apocalypse are stalking Somalia and riding further a field into the impoverished Horn of Africa.

Drought, famine, militias and global indifference plague this parched region at the mercy of weather, failed states, and donor fatigue.

Today, over 13 million people face a deteriorating food and security situation. http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/opinon/2011/10/137_97079.html

The sorrows and troubles are just beginning and will get much worse. Hopefully, people will wake up. It did seem a bit unusual that the UN writer referred to the biblical horsemen of Revelation in this context.

The four horsemen line up with something that Jesus said:

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
(Matthew 24:7-8)

37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:36-37)

Tougher times are coming. And for some parts of the world these tougher time may be here now. People who can prepare, should: both spiritually and physically. Westerners need to realize that this will not only affect people in places like Africa, Asia, and the Middle East–the Anglo-descended nations of the West will themselves suffer hunger, civil unrest, famine, and worse.
