The word rendered "revelation," and sometimes "apocalypse," means literally an unveiling, or
manifestation. So this book is the unveiling, of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is its one great theme. It
presents Him as the Son of Man in the midst of the churches during the present dispensation; and
as the Judge and the King in the dispensations to come. If you would learn to appreciate Christ more,
read this book, frequently and prayerfully. It reveals Him as the Lamb rejected, soon to reign in glory
_ the Lamb on the throne!

And observe the tide is not in the plural. People often speak of the book of Revelations. There is no
such book in the Bible. It is the Revelation _ one blessed, continuous manifestation of God’s unique
Son, the anointed Prophet, Priest and King. Revelation is the crowning book of the Bible. It is like
the Headstone of Zech. 4:7 that completes and crowns the whole wondrous pyramid of truth. Have
you read it lately?
