What do you think this says about Jesus? Scripture reference is Revelation 19:11 - 21:
(Revelation 19:11) And I saw Heaven opened. And behold, a white horse! And He sitting on him was called Faithful and True. And in righteousness He judges and makes war.
(Revelation 19:12) And His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head many crowns. And He had a name written, one that no one knew except Himself.
(Revelation 19:13) And He had been clothed in a garment dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
(Revelation 19:14) And the armies in Heaven followed Him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
(Revelation 19:15) And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, so that with it He should strike the nations. And He will shepherd them with a rod of iron. And He treads the winepress of the wine of the anger and of the wrath of Almighty God.
(Revelation 19:16) And He has on His garment, and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
(Revelation 19:17) And I saw one angel standing in the sun. And he cried with a great voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven, Come and gather together to the supper of the great God,
(Revelation 19:18) so that you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of commanders, and the flesh of strong ones, and the flesh of horses, and those sitting on them, and the flesh of all, both free and slave, both small and great.
(Revelation 19:19) And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth and their armies, being gathered to make war against Him who sat on the horse, and against His army.
(Revelation 19:20) And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet doing signs before it, (by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast), and those who had worshiped his image. The two were thrown alive into the Lake of Fire burning with brimstone.
(Revelation 19:21) And the rest were slain by the sword of Him who sat on the horse, it proceeding out of His mouth. And all the birds were filled from their flesh.
