How do the four horsemen of Revelation relate to Matthew 24?

The four horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation chapter 6 are tied almost one by one to the events Jesus describes in Matthew 24. Jesus warns of deception by many claiming to be the Messiah and of wars and rumors of wars, which correspond to the horsemen's sequence, though the end is not yet.

In Matthew 24, the disciples ask Jesus what will be the sign of His coming and the end of the age. Jesus answers by warning that many will come in His name, claiming to be the Messiah, and will deceive many. He also says they will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but these must come to pass, yet the end is not yet. Les explains that he likes to tie the four horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation chapter 6 almost one by one with the events Jesus lays out here.
