 ANTICHRIST
When the First seal is opened a white horse appears, its rider holds a bow... Opinions differ on whether the first horseman, riding the white horse represents evil or righteousness. According to some scholars, the first seal, when broken, open is said to either bring the Antichrist or The Holy Ghost. The white color of the first horse could mean victory, but whose victory is not clear. The Antichrist would be a leader of great magnitude which will convince a great many to follow him through false promises gifts of presumed happiness or easier life. Once lured, the followers will be trapped into years of suffering. Do not be deceived by false prophecy or global leaders that promise salvation. Global Conduct will determine the outcome of the effect of the breaking of this seal and Christ's role as the Lamb who opens the seven seals makes it unlikely that he would also be one of the forces released by the seals.
Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.
Quotes: "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves." (Matthew 7:15-23)
First Horseman of the Apocalypse - Rider of the White Horse - First seal open brings False Prophets
"At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved...For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect –- if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time" Matthew 24:10-13;24).

 FAMINE
The third horseman brings the slavery wage conditions under which man must serve Satan. One day's supply for one day's work. The conditions are set so man is unable to work his way out of slavery. 
The 3rd Seal brings Famine.
Quotes: “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." (Revelation 6:5) "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.’" (Revelation 6:6).
The Third Horseman of the Apocalypse is the Black Horse - The 3rd Seal brings famine.
This is the situation with the western and third world today which takes the luxurious food for itself leaving hardly enough basic food for the third world. Famine can also lead to political instability which is also a cause of war. Famine is also one of the conditions leading to the end times.

 JUDGEMENT
The 5th seal is different from seals 1 through 4 and the 6th seal. Instead of pouring out judgment on the world that rejected the creator and his plan of salvation we see martyrs crying out to God for justice. That is they are asking God to judge the world for killing them.
Martyrdom - 5th Sign of the Apocalypse
Quotes: "When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those slaughtered because of God's word and the testimony they had.(Revelation 6:9) They cried out with a loud voice: "O Lord, holy and true, how long until You judge and avenge our blood from those who live on the earth?" (Revelation 6:10)
Martyrs Are Promised the Crown of Life
"So a white robe was given to each of them, and they were told to rest a little while longer until the number of their fellow slaves and their brothers, who were going to be killed just as they had been, would be completed." (Revelation 6:11)

 REBIRTH
The Seventh Seal Opened begins with Silence in Heaven for the space of half a hour and then: The Seven Angels given Seven Trumpets; The Golden Censer offered with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar: The prayers of the saints come up before God in a cloud of incense; no prayer, thus recommended, was ever denied audience or acceptance.
Seventh Seal opened leads to Silence...or Renewel
Quotes: "And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half a hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.” (Revelation 8:1-3)
The Seventh Seal or Sign is Silence followed by 7 Angels and 7 Trumpets.
" And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound." (Revelation 8:4-6)

 WAR
The rider of the second horse is generally held to represent War. The red color of his horse represents blood spilled on the battlefield. He carries a greatsword, which represents battle and fighting. Revelation 6:4 - "And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword." 
The Second seal or sign represents war and rumors of war.
Quotes: "And you will hear wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will raise against nation, and Kingdom against kingdom." (Matthew 24:6)
Second seal is opened : a red horse appears, its rider holds a sword (war)
"When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, 'Come!' Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword. The red color of the second horse could mean bloody war, and the sword held by the rider could symbolize war and violence." (Revelation 6:3)

 PLAGUE
The fourth horseman, on the pale horse, is explicitly named Death. The horse is a gruesome color--it is a pale yellowish-green, depicting death and decomposition--set before us in all its abhorrence.
Breaking the 4th seal bring plague and death throughout the world.
Quotes: "And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a pale green horse; and he that sat on him was called Death, and Hades followed with him." (Revelation 6:7) "And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, and that the four horsemen should kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth." (Revelation 6:8)
The opening of the forth seal brings plague and death.
"Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him." - Hades is the abode of the spirits after death and therefore always follows closely behind death - "They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth." (Rev 6:8)

 CHAOS
The sixth seal is a massive and violent earth quake, shaking the earth to its very core.
Opening of the Sixth Seal leads to World Chaos.
Quotes: "Then I saw Him open the sixth seal. A violent earthquake occurred; the sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair; the entire moon became like blood; the stars of heaven fell to the earth as a fig tree drops its unripe figs when shaken by a high wind; the sky separated like a scroll being rolled up; and every mountain and island was moved from its place." (Revelation 6:12 - 14)
The Sixth sign is World Chaos beginning with earthquakes!
"Then the kings of the earth, the nobles, the military commanders, the rich, the powerful, and every slave and free person hid in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains." And they said to the mountains and to the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of the One seated on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, because the great day of Their wrath has come! And who is able to stand?" (Revelation 6:15 - 17)
