The White Horse of the Apocalypse

Now I will continue on with my own interpretation concerning the current times we live in. Please take note that I could be wrong in my interpretation and there is a possibility none of the seals mentioned in Revelation have yet to be opened. The Bible is to be read and interpreted through prayer and be aware of false teachings by others. My interpretation is to incite thought and get people thinking of the current possibilities. Please ask God for guidance before taking everything I have written as truth.

First and foremost, we must compare Scripture with Scripture and allow verses to support each other. In Matthew 24:4-5 and Luke 21:8, you will see we have been warned to “take heed” (be warned) that you are not deceived. Many will come in Jesus’s name and deceive. I believe the White Horse represents truth. This is the Word of God. We are told in the last days God’s Word will reach to all corners of the Earth so ALL men will have heard the gospel. We are to take heed, and learn the truth.

To compare, in Revelation 19, we are told the rider on the horse is the Word of God and He is wearing many crowns. Notice also the color white represents purity and truth throughout the Bible, and that the White horseman was also given a crown. There are people who believe the first horseman represents evil or “the antichrist”. Personally I believe this to be false and lacking, and the White Horse represents truth and righteousness.

Today we have seen the gospel go far and wide. It has reached all nations, and the work of many missionaries putting themselves in harms way to bring truth to people who would never know the story of Jesus otherwise.

Again, a lot of people believe the White Horseman represents “the antichrist” who will go out and conquer and take on the image of God. Throughout all the other books of the Bible all references to a white horse have to do with “wisdom of righteousness”. Here is an interesting thought. Could the white horseman be sent to us from Heaven as the spirit of Elijah?

According to Malachi 4:5-6, describing the end of days, he says”

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

In the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 1:17 it says:

And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias (Elijah), to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

John the Baptist in Matthew 11:14

And if ye will receive it, this is Elias (Elijah), which was for to come.

In Matthew 17:12 it says:

But I say unto you, That Elias (Elijah) is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

It is quite possible the White Horse is the Spirit of Elijah calling people to the “wisdom of righteousness” according to the “Lord’s Command” similar to nearly 2,000 years ago. Regardless, the white horseman is more than likely “The Word”.
