I have news.  The situation is under control.  God speed.

I have some issues, that are causing concern.

White Horse
See also: White horse (mythology)

The first horseman as depicted in the Bamberg Apocalypse (1000-1020)I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.— Revelation 6:1-2 NIV
The white horse of the apocalyptic four has been argued to represent either evil or righteousness:[edit]As evilThe other three horsemen represent evil, destructive forces, and given the unified way in which all four are introduced and described, it may be most likely that the first horseman is correspondingly evil.[2][3] Stuttgarter Erklärungsbibel, a German Lutheran, sees him as civil war and internal strife. One interpretation–which was held by evangelist Billy Graham–casts the rider of the white horse as the Antichrist, or a representation of false prophets, citing differences between the white horse in Revelation 6 and Jesus on the white Horse in Revelation 19.[4] Revelation 19 Jesus has many crowns, but in Revelation 6 the rider has one.[5][edit]As righteousIrenaeus, an influential Christian theologian of the second century, was among the first to interpret this horseman as Christ himself, his white horse representing the successful spread of the gospel.[3] Various scholars have since supported this theory, citing the later appearance, in Revelation 19, of Christ mounted on a white horse, appearing as The Word of God. Furthermore, earlier in the New Testament, the Book of Mark indicates that the advance of the gospel may indeed precede and foretell the apocalypse.[2][3] The color white also tends to represent righteousness in the Bible, and Christ is in other instances portrayed as a conqueror.[2][3] However, opposing interpretations argue that the first of the four horsemen is probably not the horseman of Revelation 19. They are described in significantly different ways, and Christ’s role as the Lamb who opens the seven seals makes it unlikely that he would also be one of the forces released by the seals.[2][3]Besides Christ, the horseman could represent the Holy Spirit.[citation needed] The Holy Spirit was understood to have come upon the Apostles at Pentecost after Jesus’ departure from earth. The appearance of the Lamb in Revelation 5 shows the triumphant arrival of Jesus in heaven, and the white horseman could represent the sending of the Holy Spirit by Jesus and the advance of the gospel of Jesus Christ.[6]
