Who is the horseman right now conquering the world with peace?

5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and 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.

This is happening right NOW? This is describing issues where food is actually unattainable, where an incredible famine takes place. I'm still having breakfast lunch and dinner. I'm frying up a mess of chicken right now.

The Bosom of Abraham is under the altar? You are losing me G1. Remember everything is literal, so we must use your interpretation. Who are these current martyrs? They are Apostolic Pentecostals? Who killed them for their testimony? Was it you? Why are they under an altar? Is it an Apostolic Altar? in a modern church? I thought Revelation is using temple items? Funny, Sean use to do the same thing. We would ask him questions he would post scripture with little or no explanations.

So, the book of Revelation was absolutely meaningless for the last 2,000 years? This says they should rest "as sleep" for as in the Greek wording "tiny time!"

This is happening RIGHT NOW!!!!??? LITERALLY RIGHT NOW??? What earthquake? Where? The largest recorded earthquake in MODERN HISTORY was a 9.5 on May 22, 1960 in Chile on a fault that is almost 1,000 miles long. 1960 61 years ago. Also a "great earthquake" to be modern like NOW!!! Would be an extinction level event. Why you ask? Because it would cause a chain reaction causing the entire earth's tectonic plates to let loose. The planet would crumble.

This is happening RIGHT NOW!!!!???
Sean, do you know how large one star is? Some are 1500 times larger than our Sun. How big is the SUN??? its radius is 432,690 miles! But you say it's literal, so it's on you to tell us how these things work out literally.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

Now this is puzzling, the planet has just gone through at least two extinction level events, a magnitude earthquake exceeding 10. on the Richter scale, and the decimation of the entire universe. There wouldn't be anyone around pray to mountains and rocks for help.
Sean please explain how this is all literal?
