Revelation 6:7,8 NCV When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.

A Florida man is dead after a killer bacteria swept through his body in just 28 hours.

Henry Konietzky spent Saturday in the Halifax River near Ormond Beach, Florida, setting traps for crabs. By Monday he had died from Vibrio vulnificus shutting down his kidneys and liver.

“It’s just horrifying,” Debbie Stack, his sister-in-law, told WKMG Orlando. She said that he woke up Sunday and noticed what appeared to be a bug bite on his leg. He started feeling ill and the wound started to fester. Konietzky went to the ER Sunday night and was dead within hours.

Health officials told WKMG that the bacteria living in warm brackist water or seawater. They urged residents to avoid eating raw shellfish and to avoid going into any water with open wounds.

Konietzky’s family said they’re tempted to make signs to hang on trees in the area warning people of the deadly bacteria in the water.
