Today we begin our look at the Book of Revelation that will be a timely word about the call to endure for the Christian Church. The book of Revelation is emphatic that the strength to endure comes not from within but from "Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever."

The key to the Book of Revelation as in the Christian life is always seeing Jesus as He truly is, the One who says, “Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades."
