Theory on Revelation
This is my developing theory about the Apocalypse, in the Book of Revelation, from the continuous-historicist's view merging into Futurism (Christianity).

Note: ''Some events seem to overlap into the next judgement; Once a judgement starts... they don't stop. There are no pretty time blocks.''

Seal 1: The spread of Christianity
"Behold a white horse... and he went forth conquering" - 301 AD - Spread of Christianity starting with the Christianization of Armenia. 380 AD - Christian doctrine established as the Roman Empire's sole recognized religion under the Edict of Thessalonica 1095 AD - The Crusades begin

Seal 2: The spread of Islam
A "horse [that was] red... to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword." - 

624 AD - Spread of Islam, starting at the Battle of Badr, led by Commander Muhammad (See also: Islam and the Arab slave trade) 632 AD - Muslim conquests begin 1092 AD - Rise of the Fedayeen Assassins of the Nizari Ismailis order. (See also: Jihad)

Seal 3: Great Famine
"A black horse... had a pair of balances in his hand." -

800 AD - Theory of Mayan civiliazation collapsing due to severe drought killing millions of Mayan people by famine. (See also: List of famines)

1202 AD - Failure of the Nile river flood, the 1202 Syria earthquake and the tsunami that followed, compacted problems with famine throughout the Mediterranean area. The death toll for the entire year of 1202 was originally recorded at over 1,000,000 deaths, affecting Sicily to Iraq and Anatolia to upper Egypt.

Seal 4: Mass Death
"Behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth." -

1315 AD - The Great Famine strikes North Europe from the Pyrenees to Russia and from Scotland to Italy.

Seal 5: The Inquisitions
"Under the altar the souls slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" And it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer... until their brethren, who would be killed as they [were], was completed." - 1480 AD - Spanish Inquisition begins; Reminisces the Medieval Inquisition 1536 AD - Portuguese Inquisition begins 1542 AD - Roman Inquisition begins

Seal 6: The Protestant Reformation
"There was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. And heaven departed... and every mountain and island was moved out of its place." -

1556 AD - 1556 Shaanxi earthquake kills 830,000. Ranks #1 as the Deadliest earthquake on record of all time. 1562 AD - French Wars of Religion (1562–1598), the first major conflict between Catholics and Protestants 1568 AD - Eighty Years' War of the European wars of religion, in response to the Protestant Reformation

1600 AD - "And after these things I saw four messengers... and I saw another messenger... having a seal of the living God, and he did cry with a great voice to the four messengers, to whom it was given to injure the land and the sea, saying, "Do not injure the land, nor the sea, nor the trees, till we may seal the servants of our God upon their foreheads." And I heard the number of those sealed, (144 thousands were sealed out of all the tribes of the sons of Israel)" - (Note what happens in 1648 AD)

Seal 7: Climax of the European wars of Religion
"Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw [it] to the earth. And there were noises, thunderings, lightnings, and an earthquake." -

Trumpet 1: Little Ice Age and World wars
"And there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up." -

1701 AD - War of the Spanish Succession (1701–1714)

1709 AD - The Great Frost of 1709 occurs during the mid period of the Little Ice Age, a noteably sharp cold period; This event caused: 1. Trees to explode, 2. Herbs and exotic fruit trees died, 3. Hardy oak and ash trees died, 4. The wheat crop failed (See: Anecdotal events of the Great Frost of 1709); Concerning the weather patterns documented in 1709, Dennis Wheeler, a climatologist at the University of Sunderland remarks, "Something unusual seems to have been happening".

Note: "The 18th century developed into a period of seemingly continuous world wars, each larger than the last." (See: Naval warfare)

Trumpet 2: Volcanic Laki System
"And as it were a great mountain with fire burning was cast into the sea, and the third of the sea became blood, and die did the third of the creatures that [are] in the sea, those having life, and the third of the ships were destroyed." -

1780 AD - The Great Hurricane of 1780 spawned from the most deadliest Atlantic hurricane season in recorded history. 1783 AD - The volcanic fissure craters of Laki in Iceland, erupted over an 8 month period killing over six million people globally from deadly sulfuric dioxide gas emissions, making it the deadliest volcanic eruption in historical times. (See: http://www.history.com/shows/how-the-earth-was-made/videos#how-the-earth-was-made-iceland)

Trumpet 3: Napoleon
"And there fell a great star from heaven... and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter." -

1799 AD - Napoleon Bonaparte assumes authority as First Consul of the French First Republic. 1803 AD - Napoleon leads the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815) in response to opposing coalitions. 1804 AD - Napoleon becomes emperor of the First French Empire and establishes the Napoleonic Code. 1806 AD - Holy Roman Empire dissolves 1815 AD - Napoleonic Wars claim between 3,350,000 to 6,500,000 casualties. 1815 AD - The United Kingdom becomes the first global superpower and initiates the Pax Britannia (1815–1914).

Trumpet 4: Rise of the Occult
"And the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise." -

1816 AD - The Year Without a Summer 1833 AD - "And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon... whose tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth." - (Compare with: Leonids of 1833) 1875 AD - Occult philosophies become more accepted, forming schools of thought such as the Theosophical Society. 1887 AD - The Lucifer magazine is in print. 1887 AD - Cipher Manuscripts are decoded. 1890 AD - Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn is established.

Trumpet 5: At the root of The Holocaust
"And he did open the pit of the abyss, and there came up a smoke out of the pit as smoke of a great furnace, and darkened was the sun and the air, from the smoke of the pit. And out of the smoke came forth locusts to the earth, and there was given to them authority, [to] injure the men... who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads, and it was given to them that they may not kill them, but that they may be tormented five months." - - ; Those who do have the "Seal of God", are the Sons of Israel -

This is the most sensitive and difficult period of all the apocalyptic events, because what happens here drives events to The Holocaust (meaning: "Great Fire"). Even the Orgins section of the Holocaust page couldn't go deep enough, into the later 19th century, to explain the real root cause for this war/hate crime. However, it is absolutely dangerous to even know, because you would have to peak into the abyss itself to see why antisemitists and anti-Christians really felt the way they did, without sharing their views or beliefs. (See also: 20th-century events)

188? AD - The book, The Antichrist, written originally in German by F.N., explains the torment that he and his contemporaries, who did not have the seal of God, felt from the Christian faith and from Jews.

Trumpet 6: The Great War
"So the four angels... were released [from the great river Euphrates] to kill a third of mankind. Now the number of the army of the horsemen [was] two hundred million... and out of their [horses] mouths came fire, smoke, and sulfur. By these three [plagues] a third of mankind was killed." -

1900 AD - "And there came war in the heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought" - 1914 AD - The Great War, from WWI to WWII [Fire] 1918 AD - 1918 flu pandemic [Smoke] 1933 AD - The Holocaust [Sulfur] 1945 AD - "So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." - ; (See: Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki) 1948 AD - "Get up and measure the temple of God and the altar, and those who worship in it. Leave out the court which is outside the temple and do not measure it, for it has been given to the nations; and they will tread under foot the holy city for forty-two months (1,260 days)." ; (See: Jerusalem) 1948 AD - "And I will give [power] to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth." - 1948 AD - "And the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her 1,260 days." - 1948 AD - "And the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ." - ; (See: Arab–Israeli conflict; See also: List of Islamic terrorist attacks) 201? AD - "And when [the two witnesses] may finish their testimony, the beast that is coming up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them." -
