Revelation 1 · Grade 4

Among the Lampstands

Name Date

Read and Think

Revelation opens with a promise. Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep them. John writes to seven assemblies in Asia. He praises Jesus, who loves us and washed us from our sins. Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him.

John says he was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God. On the Lord’s day he was in the Spirit. A voice like a trumpet told him to write to the seven assemblies. He turned and saw seven golden lamp stands, and one like a son of man among them. His hair was white as snow. His eyes were like fire, and his voice was like many waters.

Jesus held seven stars in his right hand. When John saw him, he fell at his feet. Jesus laid his hand on him and said, Don’t be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forever and ever. He explained the symbols. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are the seven assemblies.
