Rev 6:8 | MHM | STEP | v. 8 : God gives these judgments power over a fourth of the earth, letting them kill with the sword, with hunger, with death, and with wild beasts (Revelation 6:8 ). God controls all these disasters; nothing happens without His permission. Sometimes, after war, famine, and disease have weakened a nation, wild animals become a new danger. This could also mean savage, cruel people who act like wild beasts. God uses many different tools to judge those who turn away from Him (Ezekiel 14:21 ).
