3 Revelation 1 The resurrected Christ appears to the Apostle John and tells him to write down what he sees and to send it to the seven churches (1, 2). There is a blessing attached for the reader of this book (3). The theme of the message is Jesus Christ (5-8). We see an appearance and description of Christ (11-16). Christ reassures John of His resurrection and then explains the stars and the candlesticks to him (17-20).

4 Revelation 2 John writes to the first four churches: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira. In each message to each church there is a descriptive statement about Christ, a commendation, a correction, instruction, and a challenge for the church. Jesus holds the seven stars and walks among the candlesticks. Jesus is the First and the Last. Jesus holds a two-edged sword. Jesus' eyes are a blazing fire and His feet like polished brass.

5 Revelation 3 John writes to the last three churches: Sardis, Philadelphia, Laodicea. Jesus holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. Jesus holds the keys of David. Jesus is the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God's creation.

6 Revelation 4 John is caught up to Heaven (1). John sees someone seated on the throne (2, 3). John sees an emerald rainbow about the throne (3). John sees many creatures surrounding the throne: 24 elders, seven spirits of God, beasts. John sees a storm developing (5). John sees a crystal sea (6). John sees all the inhabitants of Heaven worship God (9-11).

7 Revelation 5 John continues his description of his heavenly vision. The seven sealed scroll...who is able to open? An unsuccessful search...John weeps...He is told there is someone qualified! (1-5). Jesus Christ steps forward, He is the Lion, He is the Lamb...The 24 elders worship Him (5-7). A song of praise for the wondrous works of God follows particularly the work of redemption (8). The singers: the angels, redeemed sinners, every creature in Heaven, earth and beneath! (9-11).

8 Revelation 6 John continues his description of the heavenly vision. The Lamb breaks the first six seals, sending God's judgment upon the Earth. The first seal - white horse - the conqueror (1, 2). The second seal - red horse - takes peace away (3, 4). The third seal - black horse - famine (5, 6). The fourth seal - pale horse - Death and Hell (7, 8). The fifth seal - the souls under the altar (9-11). The sixth seal - sun, moon, stars, sky, every mountain effected (12-14). The place, people and prayer...hid themselves...hide us...the great day of his wrath is come (15-17).

9 Revelation 7 Revelation 7 is an interlude between the sixth (6:12-14) and seventh seals (8:1). John witnesses the sealing of 144,000 witnesses for God, and he hears the praise song of an innumerable multitude which has been saved during the Tribulation. The sealing of the 144,000 are 12,000 from each of the twelve Israelite tribes (1-8). Angels, elders and the beasts join the innumerable multitude in singing God's praise for His glory, wisdom and power (9-17).

10 Revelation 8 The seventh seal is opened and the seven trumpets prepare to sound (1, 2). Silence in Heaven for an half an hour (1). The prayers of the saints are followed by fire from a censer cast to the Earth (2-5). First trumpet: trees and grass are burned, hail and fire mixed with blood (6, 7). Second trumpet: a burning object falls into the water (8, 9). Third trumpet: fresh waters poisoned (10, 11). Fourth trumpet: sun, moon and stars darkened (12, 13).

12 Revelation 10 Chapters 10:1–11:13 constitute a parenthetical interlude between the sixth and seventh trumpets. A mighty angel appears with a “little book” in his hand. He cries out and John is told, “Seal up those things… write them not” (1-4). There shall be time no longer (6). John is told to take and eat the little book; it is sweet in the mouth and bitter in the belly (7-10). John is told “thou must prophesy again” (11).
