The Thrill of Victory And The Agony of Defeat (a commentary on Revelation)
Click A Chapter On The Left For A Brief Summary
This is the revelation and the revealing of a different side of Jesus Christ. It is written by John the Apostle, specifically to seven of the churches in Asia during the first century, and generically to the church for all time.
Chapter one shows the glorified Jesus. The book shows him as the king of heaven and earth, and his glorious accomplishment in dealing with the Roman Empire. Also, we see Jesus dealing with his people -both the faithful and the unfaithful.
The book is written in symbolic or figurative language. Why? Because as the saying goes "A picture is worth a thousand words." John paints us a picture, and we fill in the words. To read, understand, and obey the principles in this book is to be blessed by God. In the first three chapters Jesus is among the churches, examing and critiquing them.
