The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave
Him to show to His servants ...
Chapter 1
- The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him
to show His servants - things which must shortly take place. And He
sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, (Rev. 22:6)
- who bore witness to the word of God, and to the
testimony of Jesus Christ, and to all things that he saw. (1 Cor.
1:6)
- Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words
of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the
time is near. (Luke 11:28; James 5:8)
- John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:
Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and
from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, (Ex. 3:14;
John 1:1; Is. 11:2; Rev. 3:1)
- and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the
firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth.
To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, (Ps.
89:27; Prov.
14:5; Is. 55:4; John 8:14; Rev. 3:14; Rev. 17:14)
- and has made us kings and priests to His God and
Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. (1
Pet. 2:5; 1 Pet. 2:9)
- Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye
will see Him, and they also who pierced Him. And all the tribes of
the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. (Matt. 24:30;
Zech. 12:10 - 14)
- "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and
the End," says the Lord, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
(Is. 9:6; Is. 41:4; John
8:58; Rev. 4:8)
- I, John, both your brother and companion in tribulation,
and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that
is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
(Phil. 1:7)
- I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard
behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, (Ex. 20:18)
- saying, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the
First and the Last," and, "What you see, write in a book and send it to
the seven churches which are in Asia: To Ephesus, to Smyrna, To Pergamos,
to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia and to Laodicea."
- Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with
me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, (Ex. 25:37;
Ex. 37:23)
- and in the midst of the seen lampstands One like
the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about
the chest with golden band. (Rev. 2:1; Ezekiel 1:26;
Daniel 10:5; Rev. 15:6)

- And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as Dead.
But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, "Do not be afraid;
I am the First and the Last. (Ezekiel 1:28; Daniel 8:18;
John 11:32)
