“The Revelation of Jesus Christ…” -REVELATION 1:1
The
Book of Revelation itself is not primarily the revelation of what the
end of the world will be like (although we do learn
that), but is the Revelation and Testimony of Jesus Christ. We are
immediately confronted with a vision of Jesus Christ standing in the
midst of the Ekklesia: it is quite different from the image of the
suffering Messiah, despised and rejected of men. So, this is a further
unveiling or revealing of the Lord Jesus and is genuinely prophetic.
The
rest of the book, its symbols, and its meaning may be unclear, and we
may disagree with the interpretations thereof, but the main gist of the
book,
the revealing of Jesus Christ as the King of Kings and the Lord of
Lords, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and
the Last, is beyond dispute.
