A revelation given by Jesus Christ which God gave to Him, to make known to His slaves what must very soon take place. He sent and communicated it through His angel to His slave John,

who testifies to what he saw, the message of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.

and from Jesus Christ the trustworthy witness, the First-born of the dead, and the Sovereign of the kings of the earth. To Him who ever loves us and once for all released us from our sins by His blood,

I, John, your brother and companion with you in the trouble, the kingdom, and the patient endurance which Jesus gives, found myself on the island called Patmos, for preaching God's message and testifying to Jesus.

They lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

"I, Jesus, sent my angel to bear this testimony to you for the churches. I belong to the line and family of David; I am the bright morning star."

He who testifies to this says, "Yes, I am coming soon!" Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!

The spiritual blessing of the Lord Jesus be with His people.
