Rev 1:1-11
The Revelation to John
Introduction and Salutation1The revelation of Jesus Christ,
which God gave him to show his servants* what must soon take place;
he made* it known by sending his angel to his servant* John, 2who
testified to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ,
even to all that he saw. 3 Blessed is the one who reads
aloud the words of the prophecy, and blessed are those who hear and
who keep what is written in it; for the time is near.
4 John to the seven churches that are in Asia:
Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to
come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, 5and
from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead,
and the ruler of the kings of the earth.
To him who loves us and freed* us from our sins by his blood, 6and
made* us to be a kingdom, priests serving* his God and Father, to
him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
7Look! He is coming with the clouds; every eye will see him, even
those who pierced him; and on his account all the tribes of the
earth will wail. So it is to be. Amen.
8 ‘I am the Alpha and the Omega’, says the Lord God, who is and who
was and who is to come, the Almighty.
A Vision of Christ
9 I, John, your brother who share with you in Jesus the
persecution and the kingdom and the patient endurance, was on the
island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of
Jesus.* 10I was in the spirit* on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind
me a loud voice like a trumpet 11saying, ‘Write in a book what you
see and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to
Pergamum, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.’

God's
love and attention for us is without end, without bound, without limits.
Why should our personal worship encompass only 1 hour on Sunday?
God invites us to a 24/7 relationship. Here's your opportunity to
continue to explore the way God's word connects with this week's worship
theme. We invite you to spend some time each day discovering God's
word...
