The Revelation of Jesus Christ
John
was a Roman prisoner on the Isle of Patmos when God gave him this Revelation.
The book reveals Jesus the Priest-King, the judge of the churches, the Creator,
the Redeemer, the Lord of history, the Conqueror and the Bridegroom. The key
name for Christ is the lamb. John never lets us forget that Jesus died for the
sins of the world.
John
shows worship in heaven and warfare on earth. He wrote this book to encourage
the believers who were going through persecution. The hope of the Lord’s return
has kept the saints going when the going gets tough.
Certain
events will trigger God’s last days, leading to the defeat of the current world
system and the return of Jesus Christ to establish His kingdom on earth.
Revelation
predicts the future, even as it gives hope for the present. It reveals eternal
destiny of the human race, the new heaven and the new earth.
All
that humanity has lost by sinful rebellion against God will be regained by the
grace of God and the ultimate triumph of Jesus Christ.
The
promise is that anyone who reads this Revelation will receive a special
blessing. They will see that God wins. Christ triumphs. Righteousness prevails.
Satan loses. Sorrow, sickness and death disappear. God Himself wipes away the
tears from every eye.
Please read the Book listed so that you can understand the word of God to
its fullness. This study comes from The Jeremiah Study Bible, The Bible for
Hope, The King James Bible and the Nelson’s Quick Reference Bible Commentary
