Is the white horse riding?

Some people are claiming the first horseman of the 4 horse riders. The white horse is riding and the others are right behind it, some even say that the 2nd and 3rd riders are riding, I say Hold your horses.

They use the word for crown which they say is Corona which is their proof. https://biblehub.com/revelation/6-2.htm

https://biblehub.com/greek/4735.htm

This word stephanos is the same for Jesus’ crown and our crown, it is not corona in Greek, as in corona19 virus that is spreading throughout the world.

Rev 6:2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer .

Corona is Latin, it can be a ring, wreath, diadem, chaplet, garland. Since when do we use Latin to interpret Greek

The word for crown here and elsewhere is stephanos, it is used for the twisted crown of thorns upon Jesus Mk.15:17

2 Tim. 4:8 the crown of righteousness,

Jms. 1:12 crown of life (Rv.2:10)

1 Pt.5:4 crown of glory

Rev. 14:14 having on His head a golden crown

NT:4682 a prize in the public games or a symbol of honor generally; a badge of royalty (Biblesoft's Strong's Numbers and Concordance.)

All these crowns are the same given to us and even for Jesus, so calling it a corona (virus) crown is inaccurate. And what of the bow? “He who sat on it had a bow”

These piecemeal prophecy teachers do not learn the overall meaning so how can they know the details. This is what the Bible also calls false prophecy, when it is reinterpreted and applied wrongly.

Consider this, what if certain events take place that are not in the same order or the exact same as what is written. Is it prophecy being fulfilled? Similarities do not mean sameness.

Ps 11:4 His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men.

God may be testing his Church to see if they are holding to his Word.
