4 John, to the seven churches which 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, 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who [b]loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us [c]kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. 8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, [d]the Beginning and the End,” says the [e]Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” Note those who read Revelation have a special blessing upon them in several ways. 1. They will be blest studying the scriptures. 2. It is a blessing to be and to read and then understand what is read as you compare Old to New. 3. It is a blessing to read and hear it read by those qualified to give us a better understanding. 4. It is not sufficient to only read for ourselves the Bible, but hear the Spirit of Scriptures, that we can keep the things that are written, we must keep them in our memories of our body, soul and spirit, so we are blessed with its deeds. 5. The closer we come to the accomplishment of the Scripture, the greater the regard we will give to them. The time is here now, so we need to pay attention to what God is allowing to happen today. Note, He is talking to 7 Churches in Asia and they are named. He gives a blessing of Grace and peace, holiness and comfort of peace. Yet what are we seeing destruction to the greatest degree with Hamas and Gaza. Yet Grace that is present toward man and His good work in us and peace, that is the sweetest evidence and assurance of this grace. No true peace with out true grace. Grace goes before peace and peace always follows. Thank the Lord for Grace we see abounding in our world of insanity. God is not finished yet! 2. Where does blessing come from; In the name of God and the whole trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We are blessed in no other name, but the Name of Jesus. (1.) The Father is first named for He is the first in the trinity, God and our Lord Jesus Christ is described Jesus promised us the Holy Spirit as we wait upon Him. So, Jehovah who is, who was, and is to come eternally. (2.) He is the first-begotten, or first born from the dead, or the first parents and head of the resurrection, the only one that raised himself, by His own power from the Grave to everlasting honor, For He has begotten us again to a lively Hope, by His resurrection from the dead. (3.) He is the Prince of the kings, of the earth, for from Him they have life and authority, and by Him their power is not limited and their wrath not restrained and there counsels are ruled and to Him they are accountable. This is good news to the Church and good evidence of the God head of Christ. (4.) He is the great friend of His Church and the people who have done great things. This is out of pure disinterested affection. He loves all and wants to wash out our sins by His blood that will leave no stain on the soul and spirit. So, nothing can wipe out this stain of guilt and pollution, but the blood of Jesus Christ who willing shed His own blood to purchase pardon and purify us from all Sin. Secondly, He has made them kings and priest to God and His Father. Having Justified and sanctified them, He makes them kings to His Father, in His Father account with His children. As Governors we conquer Satan and have power in Praying to God the Judge of all. (5.) He will be the Judge of the world. Vrs 7 the Book of Revelations begins and ends with a prediction of the second coming of Christ. That’s the reason we should think of His return all the time. He cometh as sure as if you beheld him with your eyes, He cometh with clouds which are His chariots and a pavilion. He shall come. To the terror of those who have pierced Him and have not repented and all who have been wounded and crucified him a fresh by their apostasy from Him, He comes to take vengeance on those who do not obey the gospel of God. (6.) This account of Christ is ratified and confirmed by Jesus Himself Vrs 8. He is the Almighty; he is the same eternal and unchangeable one. And surely whoever presumes to blot out one character of this name of Christ deserves to have his name blotted out of the book of life. Those that honor him he will honor; but those who despise him shall be lightly esteemed. Vision of the Son of Man 9 I, John, [f]both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. 10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, 11 saying, [g]“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches [h]which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” |

Revelation 1:1-3 Revelation is a book written by the Spirit of the Lord to give us all an insight into what is going to take place before His resurrection and it plays a due regard to contexts of the Bibles message of salvation from sin and the reward of abiding in the vine; Jesus, so we can produce goodwill and peace to be able to pray for our enemies. God wants us to see the Glories benediction pronounced, on all who shall pay respect to the contents of this book, to see what a glories appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ that was given to John for us as God creation we are seeing today. We will see God, in all His splendor as we look at Revelations 1 Revelation 1 New King James Version Introduction and Benediction 1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must [a]shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. Note 1. God is revealing to the world that reads the revelation of the future. Revelation comes because of Jesus coming as a baby with blood to live among us, that we can become like Him. 2. He Jesus, wants to be the King of our lives, to rule over us, giving us the ability to achieve our potential to be like Him; holy and pure. 3. This is a revelation of God to man, as He gave us His only Son, Jesus who had blood and is our mediator between God and man, Thank the Lord, Gods Spirit is in Jesus who lived among us pure and with delight. 4. The Angels are empowered by God, as messenger of the Gospel and wants us to be empowered to go through what we are going through today with insanity that does not know who we are as Boys, and Girls, Ladies and Gentlemen open to getting married and having Children as a blessing to us and all we know. So here we see Angels where ministering to John as Gods representatives of truth, so we can know the way, truth and life needed to provided protection for love of life. John was the only one alive of the Disciples and He was the one that seemed to love the Lord the Most, as he was seen with his head on Jesus Chest at times. Greeting to the Seven Churches He was not a prophet, but an apostle. He was a servant of Christ and James was an Apostle, but not a prophet, nor an evangelist; Matthew was an Apostle and evangelist, but not a prophet, Luke was an evangelist, but not a prophet, nor an apostle, but John was all three; and so Christ calls him in an eminent sense, His servant John. John was to deliver to the Church and to all his servants who have the right to all the Promises of God. So here we have the subject matter of Johns Revelation of what is going to happen and has happen in the past, now and the future. We are living in the time John wrote about for the last’s day. We can certainly see what is going on to day that proves God is in charge and Satan is showing a defiance to all God created for our good. Note what Hamas and Islamic and Iran are doing to wipe Israel off the map. God is showing Himself to the world more than any time in our lives. We are seeing the beginning of the end of time as we know it! Verse 2 John is bearing record of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ and all the things by what John saw and heard. This was not his own invention, or imagination, but the record John saw of the Testimony of Jesus, so he did not add anything to this story, but told it as he saw it. To be Continued |

Our Nephew Don and Chris Kearby said they had a rental at 1218 S 6th Ave and we looked at it and like it right away. What a blessing as it was close to Central Assembly of God with Pastor Gerry and Mindy Galbreath as Pastor, That is the Church we joined and am so thankful, it is close to our Home. Pastor Galbreath asked if we would lead the Sunday Night Pray and singing of hymns, which we did and are still doing. Being a part of the Church I volunteered to help tare out the Bath Room and it required a lot of hammering breaking 2x4s and even a sledge Hammer which I had no trouble doing for a couple days and the third day I thought I was drinking plenty of water and I became dehydrated and had to go to the Memorial Hospital to recover and did not have to stay overnight. And felt pretty good and tried to go to work again taking it easy, but found my strength was not their and was tested for coronaviruses and sure enough it was positive. I was useless and could do nothing, but rest in my chair all day. I was also going bath room at night every two hours so my body was always tired so did a lot of sleeping. Dr. Ho said I should have a Geologist look at the reason and we went to Eric Lauer and he took and found the blatter was not cancerous, so took care of the enlarged Prostrate and after it did not help. So we are going back the 27th of July at 7:00 am. All through this time we would listen to religious music and Christian Speakers to keep my spirit up, for the joy of being able to taste during this year was not present. I have had to force myself to eat and felt some time like throwing up, but never did the last few weeks I have been doing much better for the food taste good all the time, now even though I can’t taste the real Taste, it is so good I am able to eat. Also I make sure we are drinking lots of water. This has been one of the most difficult time in our lives for Ginny has been so kind and thoughtful in making sure I am eating and being taken care of to the degree I have to be more sensitive to her feeling while I am resting not in the living room any more, but I am going to go into the Bedroom if I sleep as Mike pointed this out to me, so I am not sleeping and we are walking in the Mall or Costco and visiting others. So, my body is getting stronger and I feel like doing things again. One will never know the joy and pleasure of food until it has no taste, or it tastes bitter and bad. So, the Joy of the Lord has tested our faith and hope, but our faith and hope is still in the ability of our relationship to God which is still precious and assured of even through, I can’t taste. 1 Peter 1:3-6 is still proof of our Relationship to the Lord by faith and Hope so, we have the joy inexpressible and full of glory in the Lords ability to protect, provide and heal our bodies in His time. We do not dictate to God He ministers to us. It was the first of September of 2023 I began to get my taste back and rejoiced the Lord was still ministering to us as a couple. We are still wanting the Lord to lead and guide us though this world of lawlessness full of evil works of Satan. |
