The Book of Revelation

Behold, I Am Making All Things New

The Revelation of Jesus Christ — a vision of glory, judgment, and the eternal hope of God's Kingdom.

The Apocalypse of John

The Book of Revelation, written by the Apostle John on the island of Patmos around AD 95, is the final book of the Bible. It is a prophetic vision of the end of the age, the return of Jesus Christ, the defeat of evil, and the establishment of God's eternal Kingdom. Though filled with symbolic imagery, its central message is clear: Jesus Christ is Lord, and He is coming again.
