As the events of Revelation start to unfold, we should be very encouraged by one enduring truth: it is about Jesus, and we are well-acquainted with who he is. Amid the action that will follow in this book, it can become very easy to forget that. Remember, though, that it was the humility and love that Jesus showed that put him in his place of power, and he did not become someone else when he ascended to the right hand of the Father. He is still that person, and that person is the one who rules throughout Revelation.
