Revelation 19:11

And I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and 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.

Behold a white horse: and he that sat upon him. Identical with Revelation 6:2. He comes forth "conquering and to conquer." Compare the ass-colt on which He rode into Jerusalem. The horse was used for war: here He is going forth to war with the beast. The donkey, for peace. His riding on it into Jerusalem is an earnest of His reign in Jerusalem over the earth, as Prince of peace, after all hostile powers have been overthrown. When the security of the world-power and the distress of the people of God have reached their highest, the Lord Jesus shall appear from heaven to end the whole world-course, and establish His kingdom of glory. He comes to judge with vengeance the world-power, and bring to the Church redemption, transfiguration, and power over the world. Distinguish this coming (Matthew 24:27; Matthew 24:29; Matthew 24:37; Matthew 24:39 [ parousia (G3952)]) from the end, or final judgment (Matthew 25:31; 1 Corinthians 15:24). Powerful natural phenomena shall accompany His advent (Auberlen).
