What does it mean that Jesus returns not only as Savior, but as a warrior executing perfect justice? Pastor Dean Murphy walks through Revelation 19 to reveal the full picture of Christ's return—the same Jesus who spoke grace and truth now comes as the Faithful and True judge of all nations. In this powerful message, we explore what the rider on the white horse means for those who follow Him and those who oppose Him. Through the lens of Revelation's climactic final battle, we discover what it means to take to heart the names and titles of Christ: Faithful and True, the Word of God, and King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

The Just Warrior And Judge
Rev 19:1 After this I heard what sounded like the roarof a great multitude in heaven shouting: "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, 2 for true and just are his judgments. He has condemned the great prostitute who corrupted the earth by her adulteries. He has avenged on her the blood of his servants." 3 And again they shouted: "Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever."
Rev 19:11 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. 12 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. 13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.
The Antichrist- Rev 6:2 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 aconqueror bent on conquest.
2 Pe 3:8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.
Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Rev 19:14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.
Rev 17:14 They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers."
Jude also writes (1:14) the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones…
Rev 19:15 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 winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and mar row; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Isa 63:6 I trampled the nations in my anger; in my wrath I made them drunk and poured their blood on the ground."
Rev 19:16 On his robe and on his thigh, he has this name written: king of kings and lord of lords.
Rev 19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in mid air, “Come, gather together for the great sup per of God, 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, great and small.”
Rev 19:19 Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army.
Rev 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East. 13 Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 They are demonicspirits that perform signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.
Rev 19:20 But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he haddeluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
Rev 19:20c The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. 21 The rest were killed with the sword coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.
Rev 20:1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
What shall we "take to heart"? (Rev 1:3)
Faithful and True (19:11)
A name no one knows (v 12)
Word of God (v 13)
King of Kings and Lord of Lords (v 16)
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that who ever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoeverbelieves in him is not condemned, but who ever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only S on. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.
