When the Lamb opens the sixth seal, there's a great earthquake. The sun turns black, the moon turns blood red, stars fall from the sky, and the heavens recede like a scroll being rolled up. Every mountain and island is moved from its place.
All people hide in caves and among rocks, calling to the mountains and rocks 'Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!' The kings of the earth, great generals, wealthy people, powerful people, and enslaved people all try to hide.
The cosmic disturbance signals that God's judgment is no longer theoretical. It's happening. The people responding aren't pagans only. They know what's occurring. They know they can't hide from it. But they try anyway. Fear makes people do senseless things.
