Introduction
"The Revelation of
Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him. to shew unto
his servants things which
must surely come to pass; and he sent and signified
it by his angel unto his servant John:
"
Who bare record of
the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus
Christ, and of all things that
he
saw.
Blessed is he 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.

John to the
seven
churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and
peace, from him which is
and
which was,
and which is to come; and from the
seven
Spirits which are before his throne;
And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful
witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and
the prince
of the kings
of the earth. Unto him that loved us and washed us
from our sins in his own blood,
And hath made us
kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him
be glory and dominion for
ever
and ever.
Amen.
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 be-cause of him. Even so,
Amen.
I am Alpha and
Omega, the be-ginning 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 tribu-lation, and
in the kingdom and p-atience of
Jesus Christ, was
in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of
God, and for the testimony of Jesus.
Christ
I was in the Spirit
on the Lord's day, and heard behind me
a great voice, as of a
trumpet,
Saying, I am Alpha
and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou
seest, write in a book, and send it unto
the seven churches which are in Asia: unto Ephesus,
and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto
Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia,
and unto Lao-dicea
And I turned to see
the voice that spake with me, And being turned. I
saw seven golden candle-sticks ;
And in the midst of
the seven candlesticks one like unto the
son of man. clothed with a garment down to the
foot, and girt about the paps with a golden
girdle.
His head and
his hairs were white like wool, as white
as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of
fire;
And his feet like
unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace;
and his voice as the sound of many
waters.
And he had in his
right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a
sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as
the sun shineth in his strength.
And when I saw him,
I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right
hand upon me, saying unto me. Fear not; I am the
first and the last:
I am he that
liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for
evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell. and
death

Write the things
which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and
the things which shall be here-after;
The mystery ot the
seven
stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the
seven
golden candle-sticks. The
seven
stars are the angels of the
seven
churches: and the
seven
candlesticks which thou sawest are the
seven
churches. "
