Revelation Book One: Jesus Christ, The Resurrected King

The first four chapters of the Book of Revelation reveal Jesus Christ as the Resurrected King. As He stands in the midst of the seven churches, He ministers to each church. First, He ministers as King, then, as Priest, and, finally, as Prophet. While the seven pieces of furniture in the Mosaic Tabernacle depict spiritual experiences in our growth in Christ, the seven churches in Revelation depict the overcoming power that we must obtain at each level of experience. This book also reveals the degrees of reward for spiritual growth, and it identifies the twenty-four elders and the four beasts mentioned in chapter four.
