The Rider on the White Horse is Yahshauh at the beginning of his kingdom. The White Horse represents his followers.

"for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle. " (Zechariah 10:3).

At the beginning of his kingdom Yahshuah is alone and has no army. He has only a bow and one crown. In Revelation 19:11 when his victory is completed he has all the crowns of all the nations and he is now the King of Kings. His blood soaked cloak shows that he has been through many battles. He now has an army without number. He now has a sharp sword. But notice that the sword is not one of metal for it comes out of his mouth. Don't be decieved into thinking that Yahshuah is fighting a flesh and blood battle using carnal weapons. Christians must never take up arms and start killing people. This whole picture is one of spiritual battle.

"he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked." (Psalm 11:4).

Yahveh's kingdom advances not by swords and killing but by speaking the truth in love and reasoning with unbelievers. The arrows of Yahshuah pierce the hardest hearts with love and truth.

When Yahshuah returns in Revelation 19:11 he returns as a Judge. Yahveh has given him the task of Judging the living and the dead and we will be judged on how valiant we were to learn the truth as found in his New Testament teachings, how well we lived them, and if we did so in a spirit of love.

The Rider on the Red Horse is The New Testament. The Red Horse represents Yahshuah's Evangelists who carry the New Testament to all the tribes of the earth. They are red because of matyrdom. The message they carry is a great sword. Yahshuah said:

"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. " (Mathew 10:34)

The Rider on the Black Horse is Famine. Since black is symbolic of evil, the black horse represents the false evangelists who teach another Jesus. These are the false Messiah's, false prophets and spirits of anti-christ that replace the true gospel with an erroneous, wicked, counterfeit gospel.

"Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD." (Amos 8:11)

The Rider on the Pale Horse is Death. Actually there are two riders on this horse: Death and Hell. The Pale Horse is Unbelief.

All those who reject Yahveh, and his only begotten son, the Messiah Yahshuah ,and all those who do not live by the New Testament teachings, or live by them without a spirit of love, have only two things awaiting them-death and hell.
