Jesus is not alone in fighting this battle. John tells us: "Also, the armies that were in heaven were following him on white horses, and they were clothed in white, clean, fine linen." (Revelation 19:14) The fact that the horses are "white" denotes righeous warfare. "Fine linen" is appropriate for the King's horsemen, and its glistening, clean whiteness indicates a pure righteous standing before Jehovah. Who, then, make up these "armies"? Doubtlelss, they include the holy angels. It was early in the Lord's day that Michael and his angels hurled Satan and his demons out of heaven. (Revelation 12:7-9) Further, "all the angels now attend upon Jesus as he sits on his glorious throne and proceeds to judge the nations and people of the earth. (Matthew 25:31, 32) Surely, in the decisive war, when God's judgments are executed to a finality, Jesus will again be accompanied by his angels.
