(Lesson 619)(04-28-13) Revelations 1:7-9, "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ."
In this short lesson John describes whose words and by whose authority he relates the prophecy of the Revelations. As John so clearly states, what is written herein is truly the words and will of God.
As we study this book we should continually reflect back to verse 3, "Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand."~
