The rider on this white horse is the same rider from Revelation chapter 6 that went out to conquest the nations (Zechariah 14:3). When the Conqueror left, he wore one crown; when he returns, he has many crowns. The rider on the white horse is the Lion of Y’hudah, the Warrior King returning wearing the royal crowns from conquering the nations’ kings. His eyes burn like fiery flames; he wears a robe soaked in blood. The blood is not Yeshua’s blood; it is the blood of the enemies of Adonai.
Revelation Chapter 18 – The Fall of Babylon
Babylon has become the ‘bride of the Adversry,’ the dwelling place for demons, a prison for ‘unclean’ spirits.’ Demons are evil spirits that are associated with the occult. Evil spirits can be divined through witchcraft and channeling and will appear as people we once knew. This is known as a ‘familiar spirit’ and many people embrace these spirits as the ‘return of a loved one.’ In reality, they are demons taking physical or emotional shape leading their prey away from the Truth of God’s Word: “it is appointed for a man to die once and then face judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).
Revelation Chapter 17 – The Whore and The Beast
In this interlude of Tribulation events, Yochanan is shown more details about the ‘great whore’ and ‘the beast’ from Revelation 13. The Hebrew word for ‘whore’ is zanah and means to ‘commit adultery.’ This ‘whore’ or ‘adulteress’ is a spiritual adulteress. She is a harlot who has chosen to forsake the Creator, the God of Isra’el, and submit to false gods. Her global harlotry includes kings and people from every nation, tribe, and tongue.
Revelation Chapter 16 – Bowls of Wrath
Yochanan hears a loud voice from the heavenly sanctuary commanding seven messengers to pour out the seven bowls of Adonai’s fury onto the earth. The Hebrew word for ‘fury’ is chemah and means ‘heat’ or ‘burning anger.’ The earth will be judged by Adonai with bowls of wrath similar to how He judged Egypt and her gods with plagues.
