Christ is God’s faithful and true Witness who sits on a white horse, judges in righteousness, and makes war to judge any unrighteousness; we need to be those preaching the gospel to lead others to salvation, stand with the Lord’s judging any unrighteousness in us, and enjoy Christ to the uttermost to be fully one with Him.
Lord Jesus, unveil us to see Christ as the faithful and true Witness of God. May we allow You to shine on us and judge in us what needs to be judged. Amen, Lord, we open to You. Judge any unrighteousness in our being. Judge any ground of the enemy in us. May we be clothed in white clothes, bright and clean, having a conduct that is approved by You. May we be one with You in speaking Christ to others to bring them into Your kingdom today! Amen, Lord, we love You! Amen!
We need to prayerfully read the Bible, especially the book of Revelation, to see who Christ is. Our Christ is all-inclusive, vast, and immense.
On the one hand, He is the same yesterday, today, and yes, forever; on the other hand, He is so rich, so enjoyable, and so applicable, for He meets all our needs, He meets God’s need, and He carries out God’s economy!
The book of Revelation is a revelation of Jesus Christ. In Revelation 19 in particular we see Christ as the Word of God – King of kings and Lord of lords. He will come to fight the enemy at Armageddon.
Antichrist will have a prevailing way on earth in the last three and a half years of this age; he will convince and deceive many, and eventually he will lead all men in open rebellion against God, even declaring war with God.
Wow, man will rise against God and will declare that he wants to fight God! Though this may be inconceivable today, one day this will be real and will happen.
We need to know these things, but we should not be discouraged or afraid; yes, the enemy will bring all fallen mankind in war against God at Armageddon, but we aspire to be His overcomers who will descend with the Lord to defeat the enemy!
We today stand on the Lord’s side. We want to give Him more ground in our being. We allow Him to judge in us today what needs to be judged so that, on that day, He will have the full ground in us and through us to judge Satan and all his armies.
At Armageddon, Christ will come as a fighting General with His bride – the overcoming believers – to fight Antichrist.
Christ and His armies will defeat His enemy and will cast them into the lake of fire! Wow!
Oh, how we want to be one with the Lord in this age so that we may rule and reign with Him in the next, being with Him for one thousand years, feasting with Him! Amen!
Christ is God’s Faithful and True Witness who Sits on a White Horse and Judges in Righteousness
We need to exercise our spirit and see a vision of the Christ revealed in Revelation 19. When we see heaven opened, we will see a white horse, and He who sits on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war (Rev. 19:11). This is very significant.
Christ is God’s faithful and true Witness who sits on a white horse, judges in righteousness, and makes war. When He comes, Christ will fight against Satan’s power of unrighteousness, which today operates in the world as a mystery, the mystery of lawlessness (2 Thes. 2:3, 7-8).
Right now both God’s mystery and the mystery of lawlessness are hidden, operating within man.
In the believers in Christ there is the mystery of God, which is Christ, and the mystery of Christ, which is the church; these are mysteries, and they are seen, enjoyed, and touched only in spirit.
However, in the world today there is the mystery of lawlessness operating, and this mystery will issue in Antichrist, the man of lawlessness.
Lawlessness not only increases; there’s a mystery of lawlessness, and one day a man will rise up to be the Antichrist, the man of lawlessness.
When Christ comes, He will judge Antichrist and make war against the unrighteousness practiced by Antichrist and his partners.
Christ will judge in righteousness and will fight in righteousness; He judges by fighting. Today the law courts would have no power over man unless there is a police force to enforce the judgment; judgment can be executed only by police power.
When Christ comes to judge Antichrist, this evil one will be utterly rebellious. So Christ will fight to subdue this rebellion and judge all the rebels in righteousness.
He judges and fights according to righteousness and also to maintain righteousness. The entire world today is under the satanic power of darkness; the whole world lies in the evil one, in the evil sphere of his influence (1 John 5:19).
Christ is righteousness, His kingdom is of righteousness, and He comes to judge in righteousness and fight in righteousness to maintain righteousness.
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of God’s throne. Righteousness is to be right with God and man according to God’s righteous procedure.
Today on earth, there’s no righteousness, even though men yearn for righteousness and justice; everything today is according to lawlessness. Every man does what is right in their own eyes.
There are countries where there is democratic voting, and people may elect a certain ruler who promises to bring in justice and righteousness; however, everyone is disappointed when justice and righteousness are not done. But Christ will return and make war against all the unrighteousness!
Today we need to cooperate with the Lord and allow Him to expose and deal with any unrighteousness in us. Judgment begins from the house of God (1 Pet. 4:17); today we need to let the Lord shine on us and within us to expose and judge any unrighteousness.
We commit unrighteousness; under the Lord’s light, we repent and come to Him, and we allow Him to wage war against any unrighteousness in our being so that we may be cleansed, washed, and purified.
As He comes, Christ is God’s faithful and true Witness who sits on a white horse. He is faithful to God and to man, and He is true, even the truth; He is the faithful and true Witness of God.
And He is coming on a white horse; white in the Bible indicates being clean, pure, and approvable. Today we are riding on a white horse; this is similar to the horse of the first seal in Revelation 6:2, which is white, and it signifies the preaching of the gospel.
Our preaching of the gospel is clean, pure, and just, and it is absolutely approvable by the Lord. As the Lord fights against His enemy, He will ride on a white horse.
On the negative side, we need to let the Lord deal with and judge any unrighteousness in us. On the positive side, we need to preach the gospel (Matt. 24:14), riding the white horse of the gospel, so that we may lead sinners to salvation.
This is to bear fruit; we may admit that bearing fruit is scriptural and good, but we may not bear fruit, that is, we may not be on the white horse.
If we preach the gospel, our interest on earth is in God’s kingdom; we want to labour one with the Lord to help people be saved to build up the Body of Christ for the kingdom of God.
May we not give ourselves excuses for not preaching the gospel; may we be one with Christ riding on the white horse, even be one with Christ as God’s faithful and true Witness of God to witness of what Christ is to us and what He is doing in us.
Toward the sinners, we need to preach the gospel and bring them to know God. Toward the saints, we need to be in the home meetings to feed the young ones, hold group meetings to perfect the saints, and be in the prophesying meeting to speak for the building up of the church.
We need to be one with Christ, the faithful and true Witness of God, to preach the gospel to save sinners, and we also need to feed, nourish, and cherish the young ones.
Furthermore, we need to gather the new ones together for a group meeting, and perfect them to speak for the building up of the church.
In this way we are riding on the white horse today, one with Christ as God’s faithful and true Witness.
Lord Jesus, we want to know, enjoy, and experience You as God’s faithful and true Witness! Thank You for coming to witness God to us, making God real to us. We love You, Lord, and we love God because we see God in You and through You! We praise You for being the One coming on a white horse to wage war against Your enemies and deal with all unrighteousness. We open to You today. Deal with any unrighteousness in us. We come to You in the light to allow You to expose all our sins, transgressions, mistakes, defects, and all unrighteousness. Oh Lord, shine on us. Shine within us. We say Amen to Your shining. Remove any unrighteousness from our being. We want to be one with You as the faithful and true Witness of God to preach the gospel to the sinners, feed the new believers, and perfect the saints for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ so that the kingdom of God may come in. Amen, Lord, may we be those who bear fruit by preaching the gospel of the kingdom, thus riding on the white horse of the gospel!
Know Christ as the One with Eyes like a Flame of Fire, having Many Diadems on His Head, and having a Name Written which No one Knows but Himself
How we love the Lord Jesus, our Saviour, our Master, and our Friend! How we love to spend time with Him in the Word to get to know Him, enjoy Him, and experience Him! And how much we appreciate His inner speaking throughout the day, even when His favourite answer is NO!
We believers in Christ are those who not only love God and worship Him but even more, we enjoy Christ as the all-inclusive One. As we read the Bible, we see so many aspects of Christ. Even in Revelation 19, which is our focus these days, Christ is so much to us!
He is called Faithful and True, and He judges in righteousness, making war. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems, and He has a name written which no one knows but Himself (Rev. 19:12).
What is this? What kind of Christ is this? What do all these signify and how can we enjoy such a Christ today?
We love Christ as the faithful and true Witness of God, and we want to be one with Him today.
The fact that His eyes are flames of fire shows that He is carrying out His judgment.
We can testify in our Christian life that many times, when we come to the Lord to enjoy Him and spend time with Him, both personally and corporately, we behold Him, and His eyes are a flame of fire. He burns us.
His words are like a burning fire within our very soul to remove all the dross of earthly love. He wants to burn in us and remove by burning anything that does not match His holy, glorious, and righteous nature.
His judgment begins from His house, and He judges us so that we may partake of His holiness, to make us righteous, and to express His glory through us.
If we today open to His shining, burning, and enlighening, we will be judged in this age; however, if we run from His flaming eyes today, we will be judged in the next age.
The overcomers are those who fail but keep turning to the Lord, standing with the Lord and allowing Him to burn and judge, even remove by judging, all things in them that do not match Christ.
Christ has many diadems on His head; He has been crowned with many kinds of glory (Heb. 2:9), so He wears many diadems.
Wow, Christ accomplished many things on earth, and the crowns of glory are the issues of the things He accomplished! In the glorious issues of His accomplishments, Christ will fight for God and destroy all those who rebel against God, putting them to shame for eternity.
He has many crowns, and we praise Him! Even more, Christ has a name written which no one knows but Himself.
On the one hand, we know Christ, we know His name, we love His name, and we discover more and more of our rich Christ both in our enjoyment and our experience of Him.
On the other hand, there are certain aspects of Christ that we have not experienced and that only He Himself knows.
There are secrets concerning Christ that He keeps within Himself. We may enjoy Him today, we may experience Him quite a lot, and we may know so much concerning His all-inclusiveness, but there still are some aspects of Christ that will be kept secret from us.
Even His closest overcomers will not know some aspects of Christ, which are so rich, deep, profound, and inexhaustible.
It is so amazing to see that our Christ, the Christ we enjoy and experience, is inexhaustible! He is all-inclusive, vast, immense, and inexhaustible!
It will take us eternity to discover, know, enjoy, and experience His riches so that we may become a glorious expression and exhibition of what He is!
Lord Jesus, we love You and we give ourselves to enjoy You and experience You today! You are so rich, so vast, so immense, and so all-inclusive! What a rich Christ we have! We love beholding You, looking at You face to face. Keep us beholding You and looking at You with Your flaming eyes. We allow You, Lord, to shine in us and expose anything that does not match Your righteous, holy, and glorious nature. Judge in us what needs to be judged. Remove by burning anything that does not match You. Oh Lord, may we receive Your judgment in this age so that in the next age we would join You as Your overcoming saints to rule and reign! Amen, Lord, we praise You as the One crowned with many crowns. We praise You for all Your glorious accomplishments! We open to You to enjoy You more today. Keep us in the enjoyment and experience of Christ today so that we may enter into the fullest and highest experience and enjoyment of Christ in the next age! Hallelujah, for eternity we will enjoy and experience Christ, for He is rich, vast, all-inclusive, and inexhaustible! Amen!
