Called To Write

Revelation 1:9-20

The Apostle John was called by the Lord Jesus to write the last book of the Bible.

JOHN'S CONDITION - Vss. 9-10a
He was their brother.
He was their companion in tribulation.
He was prisoner on the Island of Patmos.
He was "in the Spirit on the Lord's Day."

JOHN'S COMMANDER - Vss. 12-16
In this passage John sees the glorified Son of God. He is the one calling John to write.

JOHN'S COMMISSION - Vss. 17-20
John was to "fear not".
John was to write the things which he had seen (Chapter 1), "the things
which are" (Chapters 2-3), "and the things which shall be hereafter"
(Chapters 4-22). This, by the way, is the simplest outline of the Book of
Revelation that I have ever seen.

JOHN'S CONGREGATION - Vss. 10a-11, 20
John was to write to the seven churches.
