What does it mean that Christ is “ruler of all the kings of the earth?” How is He the one who freed us from our sins? What does it mean to live in God’s Grace?
Today, we discuss Rev 1:4-8 in general terms. God brings you a blessing…then defines Himself by seven attributes or “spirits,” found in Isaiah.
Revelation starts with a blessing! It is intended to be a blessing to us..and to all with whom it is shared.
We’ll start here…with a few comments about the motivation and intent of the Revelation Power Podcast.
