The Epistle of Jesus to the Church: a Commentary on the Revelation

This is a Commentary on the Revelation that believes Jesus was the author and John the reporter of the words and events described in the book. Here, one will not find an explanation of an anti-Roman message written by John in hidden codes and apocalyptic motifs to fool Roman authorities. John the apostle and prophet was the faithful scribe who did not create the message, but faithfully and accurately described all that he saw and heard. The Commentary follows the principle that the Scriptures explain themselves, because the Revelation is a word from Jesus to His Church that is grounded in the Scriptures. The Epistle of Jesus to the Church was written by a Bible teacher with teachers, students and pastors in mind. The interpretation is thorough, difficult passages are addressed, and plausible answers are provided to the questions posed by an in-depth study of the book. This is a Commentary for personal study or classroom instruction, one that may be confidently used to preach and teach the Revelation of Jesus to the Church.
