Day 359 of the podcast, reading Revelation 1-4 NET, read along at:
https://netbible.org/bible/Revelation+1-4/
This is day 359 of our journey.
Today we begin the last book of the Bible! The book of Revelation was written by a Christian elder named John while he was living in exile on the island of Patmos. He wrote to "the seven churches" as a warning to continue to remain faithful in the face of the hardship that would come at the hand of the Romans and the world at large. The book is classified as apocalyptic literature, with a visitor from heaven revealing the future and secrets of the unseen world through vivid symbols and imagery. These symbols are hard to understand, but become more clear when understood in the context of the first-century Christian and when compared to other Biblical imagery.
The book begins with seven messages to the seven churches. John writes of specific issues in those churches and their need to remain faithful to the end, giving each church a promise of what they will receive if they remain faithful. Today's reading ends in the throne room of God where we are taken up to witness 24 elders and 4 living creatures surround him to proclaim the holiness and glory of Christ!
Join me in Revelation 1-4 and praise the Saviour of the world!
Key verses:
Revelation 1:8
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God – the one who is, and who was, and who is still to come – the All-Powerful!
Revelation 2:29
The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
Revelation 3:5
The one who conquers will be dressed like them in white clothing, and I will never erase his name from the book of life, but will declare his name before my Father and before his angels.
Revelation 4:11
“You are worthy, our Lord and God,to receive glory and honor and power,since you created all things,and because of your will they existed and were created!”
All Scriptures are from the NET.
