Revelation 1: 9 – 20 (ESV)     We are in a series, as noted last Lord’s Day; Part 3 of This Same Jesus, focussing on the fact that this book before us is, first and foremost,1 The revelation of Jesus Christ... Revelation     That, in itself, is complex enough that John will write 22 chapters (as we know them) between that opening statement, and his closing benediction,21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen. Revelation      Having said that, the book begins with Jesus, it ends with Jesus, and in a very real sense, everything that comes in between is simply, 1 The revelation of Jesus Christ... Revelation      That’s the point of the book, and to go looking for anything that is not a part of that is, in some sense, to miss the point.
