The Black Horse-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and The Black Horse
We spoke earlier about The Four Horsemen representing races of people and I mentioned that if, by chance these horses represented spaces of time as well that we would be currently living in The Black Horses time. I had chosen Dr. Martin Luther King as the rider of The Black Horse simply because the literal sign of the times is focused on equality of some proportion-civil rights, worker’s rights, veterans rights, equal rights, smokers rights, gay rights, womans rights, unborn rights, etc…
Rev 6:5 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.
The Black Horse carries “the balances”, or scales and scales measure equality. Used as an icon in the courts, it would seem that the balances also measure justice, as in “the scales of justice” where evidence is weighed. Appropriately we have also learned that on “Judgement Day” when the book of life is opened, we will be accountable for the deeds of our life whether good or bad. Could it be that good and bad will be measured by balances?
Back to equality. Dr. Martin Luther King is an icon of equality. He not only fits the race required for The Black Horses’ rider, he also fits the cause: Equality. It is only appropriate that he is The Black Horses’ rider. The role is too significant that he played in changing the world to ignore and should be illuminated, thus never forgotten. He was the father which birthed modern day of battles dealing with equality in any manner. Numerous hours were spent sketching Martin Luther King.
Many sketches will be in the Journal of Sketches. Roughly the first sketch and final painting are revealed here in this blog. Martin Luther King is nearly completed here:
Interesting fact: Martin Luther King, Jr., was originally named "Michael King, Jr.," until the family traveled to Europe in 1934 and visited Germany. His father, Michael King Sr., soon changed both of their names to Martin Luther in honor of the German Protestant leader Martin Luther.
From the Journal of Measures (and Numbers)...
As Michael King Jr., his name = 3 but as Martin Luther King Jr., it = 7
Seven is known as "Gods" number.
A CLUE TO A MYSTERY....remember when you see the painting all together 12/2010, follow his eyes and then back again. Mysteries will be revealed for those who have the keys-simply follow the eyes and see what he see's!
