Revelation 1

RevelationSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg provides an insightful analysis of the Book of Revelation, starting with the identification of John as the writer of the book. He explains that the phrase "born witness" means to bear witness to one's faith at the cost of one's life, which John did, and also that the word of God refers to both the written word and Jesus Christ. Gregg also delves into the symbolism of the book, including the seven eyes of Christ representing the seven spirits of God. Finally, he notes that the "first and last" phrase used to describe Jesus in Revelation is a reference to Yahweh in the Old Testament.
