    ===============
    September 14, 2011 -A STUDY OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION- (4)
    ===============
    Continuing our series of lessons....through the book of Revelation:
    ===============
    LETS GO BACK TO....... Revelation 1:5
    ===============

    ===============
    V.5AA “And from Jesus Christ,”
    -THE REASON THIS IS CALLED.... “THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST”-
    (Because it’s all about:)
    Revealing the Lord Jesus Christ...to us:
    --------------------------------------------------
    As I have said before:
    We learn things about Jesus in this book:
    That are found nowhere else!
    ===============
    V.5B “[who is] the faithful witness,”
    -WE CAN TRUST THE TESTIMONY......OF JESUS CHRIST-
    (Who said everything...the Father wanted Him to:)
    ------------------------
    See Hebrews 1:1,2
    --------------------------------------------------
    Everything in the book of Revelation:
    Can be trusted to be accurate!
    ===============
    V.5C “[and] the first begotten of the dead,”
    -THE FIRST PERSON.....TO EVER BE RESURRECTED-
    (With....a “gloried body”:)
    --------------------------------------------------
    -CLUES WE CAN GATHER.....ABOUT OUR COMING GLORIFICATION-
    The details of the empty tomb:
    And the resurrected Lord’s abilities:
    ------------------------
    Give us clues...about the rapture:
    And what our new bodies...will be like!
    ---------------------------------------------------
    Here is what the Word of God has to say about it....
    Romans 8:29
    Psalms 17:15
    1Corinthians 15:49
    Philippians 3:21
    1John 3:2
    ===============
    V.5D “and the prince of the kings of the earth.”
    -HE IS ACTUALLY....THE KING OF KINGS & LORD OF LORDS-
    (Even when the world rejects His authority:)
    --------------------------------------------------
    And one of these days...He will be:
    The actual king of the world:
    ------------------------
    And the world will see:
    How wonderful things will be!
    ===============
    -A CHANGE IN SUBJECTS-
    Note: The rest of this verse, should have been included in verse 6.
    ===============
    V.5E “Unto him that loved us,”
    -PRAISE BEING GIVEN....TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST-
    (We can not praise Him... “too much”:)
    --------------------------------------------------
    -OUR FIRST REASON.......TO PRAISE HIM-
    Because of His great love for us:
    ------------------------
    And what makes this love so great:
    Is the fact that we are dirty rotten sinners:
    And don’t deserve anything from Him.
    ===============
    V.5F “and washed us from our sins”
    -ONE OF OUR GREATEST REASONS.....TO PRAISE HIM-
    (Because of the victory over our sins:)
    That He has arranged for us:
    ------------------------
    Being forgiven for all of our sin:
    Past, Present & future:

    Therefore at the Judgement seat of Christ:
    Our sins...won’t even be an issue.....
    2 Corinthians 5:10
    “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ;
    that every one may receive the things [done] in [his] body,
    according to that he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad.”
    --------------------------------------------------
    -THE ONE THING.....NEVER TO FORGET ABOUT THIS VICTORY OVER SIN-
    (Of all the hundreds....of the world’s false religions:)
    None of them...can fix people’s sin problem:
    ------------------------
    They don’t even pretend to!
    ===============
    V.5G “in his own blood,”
    -THE UNIQUE WAY....HE DEALS WITH OUR SIN PROBLEM-
    (Our sins...that nothing else can wipe away:)
    ------------------------
    Are washed away....with his own blood:
    ------------------------------------------------------
    Because His blood was special!
