👉 Armageddon is here.
The armies of the world gather, Babylon has fallen… and then heaven opens. Revelation 19 reveals the return of Jesus Christ, the Rider on the White Horse, Faithful and True. Don’t miss the ending: the choice between two banquets, the wedding supper of the Lamb or the great supper of God.
Escaping Babylon Podcast | Episode 78 Revelation 19: Heaven Opens — The Rider on the White Horse
The world is on the brink. Armies gather at Armageddon. Babylon has fallen. The Beast and False Prophet rally the nations for one final war. And then, it happens. John writes: “I saw heaven standing open.” A Rider appears on a white horse, His robe dipped in blood, His name: Faithful and True. Behind Him ride the armies of heaven. The nations see an invasion. The faithful see their King.
This episode unpacks Revelation 19:11–21. It's the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the contrast between the counterfeit rider of Revelation 6 and the true King, and the destiny of the Beast and False Prophet. We’ll explore: How Revelation 19 fulfills 300+ New Testament prophecies of Christ’s return Why the Rider’s blood-stained robe echoes Isaiah 63 The “Two Banquets” — the wedding supper of the Lamb vs. the great supper of God The fate of the Beast and False Prophet in the lake of fire What this means for us today: Which table will you sit at?
