Certainly Jesus is one of the four riders of Revelation.
"Let us pause now to explain something important that comes to my mind any time I read these scriptures in chapter nineteen of Revelation, especially verse 11: 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. Every time I read this scripture describing Jesus riding a white horse, I just want to cry out in frustration, recalling a prominent preacher who lately has been teaching on TV that the rider of the white horse appearing in chapter six of Revelation, and which is the same rider that represents Jesus in chapter nineteen, is the antichrist: And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him; and he went forth conquering and to conquer (Rev. 6:2).
I wonder sometimes where is the wisdom of our spiritual leaders. How can they allow this man to teach wrongfully that the rider of the white horse is the antichrist, instead of Jesus? Many will recognize this preacher, but even he, with his questionable interpretations of the scriptures, aids in validating the veracity of our doctrine, since traditional beliefs cannot recognize Jesus as one of the four riders with the Devil, His counterpart, the rider of the red horse: And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they shall kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword (Rev. 6:4).
Likewise, traditional doctrines do not accept God as the rider of the black horse, the mediator that keeps the balance between Jesus and the Devil, until everything in His plan is fulfilled, and Jesus sits on Gods throne forever: And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo, a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hands (v6); And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say [Gods voice from His throne], A measure of wheat for a penny; and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine (Rev. 6:5-6). For God, every human being has the same value, regardless of what others think of him, and this is implied when He says that three measures of barley have the same price as a measure of wheat. For Him, all humans are equal despite their contradictions, and no one will be hurt, like the oil and wine in the scripture, which represent antagonism. The oil and the wine will never mix. They stand for opposition, but for God, they are still equal. The fourth rider, on a pale horse, is death, the only way for men to go to Heaven: And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth (Rev. 6:8).
Yes, definitely, God and Jesus are two of the
four riders, and this is another astonishing
revelation that God wants us to transmit."
Excerpt from "The Last Prophecy" w..zondervansfall.com
The four horsemen are just symbols used to describe the first four [4] seals.
Revelation 6:2 New International Version (NIV)
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.
The rider of the white horse of Rev 6:2 is not the Lord Jesus Christ
However the rider of the white horse in Rev 19:11-14 is the Lord Jesus Christ
There are significant differences
Revelation 19:11-15 New International Version (NIV)
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 winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.
The riders mentioned are entirely different from each other even though they are both riding the white horse.
Further the Lord Jesus Christ is being followed by the armies of heaven in white horses
Being on a white horse per se does not imply the same thing.
Before we read the Book of Revelations we have to bear in mind:
These are prophecies of the Lord Jesus Christ - events that will take place
Revelation 1
The messages for the first century church of Christ Revelation 2-3
The vision of heaven, the 24 elders, the spirits, the angels of God and the four living creatures Revelation 4
The a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5
The scroll were sealed and it will be opened until the time of the end....
Daniel 12:4,9 New International Version (NIV)
But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.” He replied, “Go your way, Daniel, because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end.
These seals were written in Rev 6-8
