I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose
rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war. His
eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name
written on him that no one knows but he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped
in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following
him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Coming
out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He
will rule them with an iron scepter.”[a] He treads the winepress of the fury of
the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name
written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.” Revelation 19:11-16
Often I don't reflect on the God of Glory enough. God is a just God and He is also a God that needs to be feared. I need to reconcile both the God of Grace and the God of Justice in my head.
