A TESTIMONY ABOUT JESUS (28) Revelation 6:3 – 17

Lucifer was expelled from heaven.

“I looked on when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with thunderous voiced, ‘Come!’ So I looked, and here came a white horse! The one who rode it had a bow, and he was given a crown, and as a conqueror he rode out to conquer.” Revelation 6:1 – 2, NET. We do not know where Lucifer went out of heaven. He, as a spirit, does not need a physical place. However, he needed a home because he lost his home in heaven. The ensuing blogs will present Lucifer’s conquer of a home. God expelled Lucifer from heaven because he rebelled against him, waged war, and lost. However, he won the battle. Before he waged war, Lucifer won one-third of the heavenly angels; therefore, a victor’s crown, a wreath, was given to him. Therefore, he was recognized as a minor victor. However, Lucifer was not satisfied. In addition to the victor’s crown, he also wanted a royal crown.

Consequently, Lucifer left heaven with a firm determination to win a dominion for himself, and his followers.. However, he did not deserve a home or a dominion. Had Lucifer won the war, he would also have the royal crown. Had he won a dominion, he would have become a legal property owner. However, we shall see later in these presentations that he still needs to gain a deed to the property. By expulsion from heaven, Lucifer lost his home. To live forever, all created intelligence must have a home where it belongs, according to our understanding of the law of intelligence. If we extend this logic to Lucifer, he had to win a home for himself and his followers. Did he succeed?

Unfortunately, he did. He rode out of heaven on a white horse, intending to win. He was determined to cause as much disruption in God’s Dominion as was possible. In biblical times, riding on a white horse symbolized victory. Both benevolent and evil victors rode on a white horse as a form of honor. In Revelation, John describes Jesus and Lucifer, Satan, as riders on a white horse. However, John differentiates between Jesus and Lucifer by describing Jesus as a rider with “many crowns,” including the royal crown. Lucifer, however, has only a victor’s crown, signifying that he has won over one-third of the angels in heaven.; Revelation 6:1 – 2. Additionally, John describes Jesus as riding a white horse in heaven, while Lucifer rides a white horse out of heaven. Satan’s riding on a white horse out of heaven is a warning that an evil force has gone out of heaven with the intent to conquer and dominate.
