Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Earth is symbolic of our Adamic spiritual man. We are Adamic influenced by the serpent though we know it not, until we have a new birth experience.
When we are born of the Holy Spirit, we still have to contend with our carnal flesh man
Romans 8:6
Thank you, I appreciate your input in the thread.
Spiritual warfare is a fight.

It's my favorite topic. It didn't use to be, I went 35 years as a Christian ignoring the book of Revelation because I didn't understand it.
I picked up a series with an idealist interpretive method and it all started making sense.
I'm word salady because I'm a bit slow. I do try to communicate as best I can.
Enjoy your post on the pale and white horses, I look forward to reading it.
Me and the wife recently watched Tombstone and the Pale Rider.
Noted the references as well.
Good day fren
Sorry about being testy. Maybe you’re right about some of this stuff and I should research and contemplate more before making a post. Something interesting is that in Rev 6:2 the first horse is also described as leukos or white. Maybe it’s the same leukos horse from Rev 19:11, or maybe it’s an impersonation. I suspect the latter, that it’s the horse of the antiChrist trying to impersonate the real Christ who shows up later. Or maybe it’s your hypothesis that none of the four horses are tools of the antiChrist. I’ll dig more…

Awesome, thanks again,
We're supposed to be testy, I truly appreciate my words being tested.
