The White Horse and the Antichrist
Hi Friends,
Today I am writing concerning a most difficult topic: the beginning of the end. Everyone squirms in their chairs when we begin to speak of these things. But if I am going to write about this, I hope you will also be willing to read it. I have been praying over this vision for almost two weeks.
Just now as I was praying about this vision, I was feeling a sense of dread. Not all of my visions are received by others with joy. Some are difficult messages, and are not accepted. I guess part of this dread is to share what I already know will be hard to accept. As I was praying just now, God gave me another vision:
The Bowl of Soup
In this vision, I see a bowl of clear broth with vegetables and a very prominently displayed hard boiled egg in the center. I recognized this soup, because I had ordered a similar bowl at a new restaurant almost a month ago, before everything closed for the Corona virus.
On most week days, I make myself a bowl of soup with ramen noodles, lots of vegetables, and two beaten eggs whisked into the broth. I love this soup so much that I have it at nearly everyday. A new restaurant in town specialized in ramen, so I went to try it out. When the soup came, it looked scary! There was an under-cooked hard boiled egg in the middle of the soup, sliced in half with its gooey yolk. The egg white was not white; it was somewhere between a burgundy and a rust color. It did not look edible. The vegetables were also unrecognizable. I thought to myself, no wonder this restaurant is nearly empty.
In this vision of a similar soup, the egg is more fully cooked and the egg white is white. It is by far, a more attractive option than the soup in the restaurant. I believe that God was showing me that I should not dread writing or sharing this vision because others may find it difficult to “swallow.” I should write it and share it because it is the Lord’s will.
So, before I began to write, I grabbed my devotional, My Utmost for His Highest, and asked God to show me anything that I needed to know before I began. This is the title of the page that I saw: “All Efforts of Worth and Excellence are Difficult.” Yes, it is probably so. Now I must begin.
The Vision
The Hand
The vision begins with a flesh colored scene. I see a human hand, relaxed in a semi-closed position. One finger moves as if to beckon me or someone else. What is strange about this vision, is the ambiguity of the body parts. I couldn’t tell if the hand was motioning with a pinkie finger or a thumb! It was not the pointer finger as if to motion someone to come quietly or secretly. It was not like a policeman directing many cars to keep moving, using his whole hand, either. There was simply one finger motioning someone to come forward. There was no arm attached to the hand; no specific structure was visible, for the hand was surrounded by flesh of the same color.
The White Horse
Next I saw a white horse which was not in a stable or fenced in a yard or field. There was a tree just behind the horse, and nothing else of prominence. The white horse lowered its neck towards the ground where there was a tall slender glass bottle, filled with what appeared to be clear water. The horse took the bottle by the opening with its teeth, and threw his head back, tilting the bottle upside down. He consumed all the water in the bottle.
The Bottle
Then I saw what seemed to be the same style bottle, long and slender, filled this time with a red liquid. Someone took the bottle and poured the red liquid on the ground.
What I believe that the visions means:
The White Horse
When I began thinking and praying about this vision, I began with the white horse. I thought of the white horse and its rider in chapter 19 in the book of Revelation.
“I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. ‘He will rule them with an iron scepter.’ He treads the wine-press of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: King of Kings and Lord of Lords.” Revelation 19:11-16
Scripture tells us that the Rider on the white horse is Jesus, the Word of God, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. He will return with his believers at the end of the seven years of Tribulation. But I don’t believe that the horse in the vision represents the Lord at his second coming.
There is another white horse that appears closer to the beginning of the Tribulation, spoken of in Chapter 6 of Revelations:
“I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other. To him was given a large sword.
When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!”
When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:1-8
These horses represent the first four seals. It is the Lamb who opens the seals. The Lamb is Jesus, the one slain for the sins of the world. The four creatures and the 24 elders around the throne of God declare: “You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God, from every tribe and language and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:9-10
Going to the beginning of the passage above, I saw that this white horse also had a rider. “Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.” Revelation 6:2
Notice that there is not yet blood shed with this first seal. My study Bible says that many Biblical scholars consider this rider to be the Antichrist, who becomes the premier world leader in the beginning of the seven year tribulation.
The following notes are from the Full Life Study Bible, Donald C. Stamps, 1992 Life Publishers, Zondervan Publishers:
“He is allowed by God to deceive all who oppose Christ. His initial conquest will be accomplished without open warfare, for peace is taken from the earth beginning with the second horseman (v.4; cf. Da9:26-27; 1 Th 5:3).”
So we see that the white horse in the vision could represent the Antichrist.
The Hand
In this 6th chapter of Revelations, as each seal is opened by the Lamb, one of the living creatures would announce with a loud voice “Come”.
In my vision of the hand, the hand was making a motion with one of its fingers, calling someone to come. The four living creatures around the throne of God are mentioned in both Revelation and the book of Ezekiel. They are described as having hands under their wings, and eyes all around them. “Under their wings on their four sides, they have the hands of a man.” Ezekiel 1:8
I believe that the hand in my vision, might very well be the hand of one of these living creatures calling the white horse and its rider to come forth. The hand appeared to be human, in basic shape and color, but it was not attached to any specific structure, like a forearm on a man. The pointer finger was not used to beckon, as we would, but it seemed to be the pinkie or the thumb. I could easily recognize the motion was beckoning, but it didn’t appear entirely familiar.
The Bottles
The first bottle was filled with clear water which the horse consumed completely. The second bottle was filled with a red liquid. Both bottles were the same shape: tall and slender. I believe that these bottles represent people, for often in the Bible, people are likened to vessels. “Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use?” Romans 9:21
“So if anyone cleanses himself of what is unfit, he will be a vessel for honor: sanctified, useful to the Master, and prepared for every good work.” 2 Timothy 2:21
“Honor your wife as the weaker vessel” 1 Peter 3:7
So, the two bottles, or vessels, in the vision represent people. Jesus said,“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said: “Out of his heart will flow living water.” John 7:38
The water contained in a vessel for noble purposes is a person who has the Holy Spirit dwelling within him. The water represents the Holy Spirit which is pure, perfect, and holy. We are “temples of the Holy Spirit,” because God’s Spirit dwells within each of us as believers.
Paul compared himself to a vessel in saying: “For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near.” 2 Timothy 4:6
Even Jesus was the ultimate drink offering when he died upon the cross. “But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.” John 19:33-34
So we understand that we can be the vessel and the clear water is the Holy Spirit. But what is the red liquid? Is it wine as in a drink offering? Is it blood? Isn’t blood, what is represented by the wine?
Remember at the last supper, Jesus introduced the new covenant by holding up a glass of wine and saying “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” Matthew 26:28
Just as Jesus poured out his life blood, at the cross, Paul in anticipation of his execution wrote that he was being poured out as a drink offering. We should know and expect that there will be many in the last days that will pour out their life’s blood as a drink offering unto the Lord.
The Tribulation
As the first seal is opened, the white horse and its rider, the Antichrist is introduced. This represents the first 3 1/2 years of a seven year period, referred to as the Tribulation. It is a time of political peace. It is not until the second seal is opened that the fiery red horse comes forward. The red horse and its rider represent war and violent death. This will begin the last 3 1/2 years filled with great destruction and death.
Now you might be asking, “Why would the Lord show us things that are already written about in the Bible?”
I believe the Lord gives us visions like these because these events may occur within our lifetime. He wants us to be ready and to prepare others so that they may also be ready. I have been given several visions concerning end time events: the rapture, the tribulation, the Antichrist, wars, disease, drought and even the world’s largest caldera erupting.
I have not posted everyone of these yet, but there are many that I have posted on this website.
This is a long post, but let me share one other vision I had concerning the Antichrist. This vision I received on January 2, 2006:
Satan and the Antichrist
I saw an alligator from the jaw forward. Its mouth slowly opened, and out emerged a large lizard, nearly the size of the alligator. It came out and stood proudly, stretching his neck and looking around, as if it expected to be admired.
Whenever I think or speak of alligators, I usually describe them as “eating machines,” because they eat anything that comes their way. I thought of the alligator in the vision, as Satan, “The Devourer.”
Then I asked myself, “Who or what would Satan allow to live?” The Antichrist immediately came to mind. The lizard reminded me of a komodo dragon in a children’s movie called, “Napoleon.” The dragon in the movie was a deceiver. He was known to mislead various characters by mimicking the voices of other animals.
I looked to the Lord for his confirmation. In a vision I saw two numbers: 1266 and 1296. So I immediately grabbed my Bible and opened it. Can you believe it! The Bible opened to the very page 1296!
At the top of the page were notes regarding the book of Joel:
“Joel spoke and wrote because of two recent natural disasters and the imminent potential of a foreign military invasion of Judah. His purpose was threefold: (1) to bring the people together before the Lord in a great sacred assembly,(1:14; 2:15-16); (2) to exhort the people to repent and humbly return to the Lord with fasting, weeping, mourning and intercession for God’s mercy (2:12-17); and (3) to record God’s prophetic word to his people on the occasion of their sincere repentance (2:18-3:21).”
This is God’s direction to us through this vision concerning the alligator and the lizard. He wants us to do as he instructed Joel to tell the people: humbly return to the Lord with fasting, weeping, mourning and intercession for God’s mercy. That is what we are to do today. When we face a crisis like the Corona virus, we need to seek God as in 2 Chronicles:
“If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14
Then I was very anxious to see what was on page 1266 in the Bible. The very first words on that page read: “Tell this man the meaning of the vision.” Wow! God wants to confirm his message!
It continued: “As he came near the place where I was standing, I was terrified and fell prostrate. “Son of man,” he said to me, “understand that the vision concerns the time of the end.” Daniel 8:16-17
Then on that same page, 1266, were the confirming words:
“In the latter part of their reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a stern-faced king, a master of intrigue, will arise. He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the mighty men and the holy people. He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power.” Daniel 8: 23-25
You can readily see that God was confirming his vision. The alligator was Satan and the lizard was the Antichrist. And because the lizard was at first inside the alligator, it showed that the lizard was hidden from view, as is true for the Antichrist. But as the lizard came forward out of the mouth of Satan, the Antichrist will represent Satan, and his identity will soon be revealed.
Now today, the vision speaks again of the Antichrist. The white horse and its rider will soon be called forth, as the first seal is opened. This is serious. We are definitely in the end-times. I will share with you another vision that came immediately following the alligator and lizard, for it was a warning to me.
My Clothing
After the alligator and lizard vision I went back to prayer, and received this vision: I saw my clothing on the ground, laid out as if I were wearing them. My black sweat shirt and black pants were trampled. Then I saw two men wearing sunglasses, working on a large electrical box. They were pulling out wires and re-inserting wires. As they worked they continually looked over their shoulders to see if anyone was watching.
This vision is a warning that the visions that I share, particularly of the end-times and of judgment, would not be respected. Anyone like myself who share about the Lord will come under attack. The enemy does not want watchmen, to warn people of these events, so through deceit, fear, misinformation and confusion, no one will take this seriously. It is easier for the demonic to work in broad daylight, when people are spiritually blind.
In Conclusion
So in conclusion, the Lord is asking us to be aware of the times in which we live. “But about that day or the hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son. but only the Father.” Matthew 24:36
He wants us to be ready for his return: to stand watch, to be prepared, to have oil in our lamps which means to be filled with the Holy Spirit, to be praying, to be awake, not asleep spiritually, but to be ready living everyday as if it belongs to God. “For you are not your own, you were bought at a price.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Thanks for reading. Please pass this on to others that you think will be interested and will take this seriously. Be blessed and may God’s divine love, mercy and protection keep you from illness and from the enemy’s schemes.
