Revelation 19:11-13
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.

Welcome to CC, Jakotis!
Rightly is there concern over false doctrines and those who teach them. Here's a question though: who determines what is "false"? Around here we debate many issues, and it is common for "person A" to think that "person B" (who disagrees with him) holds to false doctrines, and person B thinks the same of person A. Who decides what is true and what is false? Ultimately, Jesus does, of course, but how are we to keep to the straight and narrow in the meantime?

Rev 6:1 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!” 2 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.
Where are the lies you mentioned?

Well I am not sure that the white horse would be a false doctrine more like a series of interpretations.
Some think it is the antichrist, others Jesus himself others say it is a foreign country and others still think it is actually the false prophet.
With so much symbolism in revelations it is easy to see different views and aspects to try to discern the true thing,

The white horse/s of Rev - whether taken as symbolism or not - always seem to be connected to Jesus. In fact, other places in Rev 19, the rider of the white horse is: called Faithful and True; judging with justice; wearing many crowns; dressed in a bloody robe; has the armies of heaven following him... so where or how this idea of lies being associated with it, is puzzling, especially given that His Name is the Word of God.
Let's take a look:
Revelation 19:
11 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. 12 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. 13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. 14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.
