Is the scene of the heavenly armies on white horses following Christ the second coming or the Rapture?
The scene depicts the second coming, not the Rapture. At the Rapture Christ comes for the saints; at the second coming He comes with them. The heavenly armies follow Him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, identifying the saints accompanying Him, including members of the body and citizens of the kingdom.
The context identifies this scene as His second coming. At verse 14, the armies in heaven follow Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen for the saints. Les teaches that this distinction is important: at the Rapture He comes for the saints, but at the second coming He comes with them. That contrast helps separate the two events clearly. Here the saints come with Him, described as members of the body, but also as citizens of the kingdom.
