A Vision of Jesus: The Awesome Jesus of Revelation - Paperback

by R. T. Kendall (Author)

What if Genesis through Revelation is just the beginning of knowing who God is?

This book will guide you into a deeper understanding and intimacy with God as you study who He is as the resurrected King. You will have a better grasp of the book of Revelation and who Jesus is revealed in this powerful part of Scripture.

The image we have of Jesus is one that affects the way we act as Christians and the way we take the gospel to the world. That image has sometimes been reflected badly because we do not have a fully rounded image of the Jesus we love and worship. Indeed, some modern concepts of Jesus in the church would be difficult to worship.

In Revelation 1, Jesus appears in a vision given to the apostle John. It is an awesome, majestic vision. The Bible, perhaps intentionally, doesn't give us much information about what Jesus looked like in human form. Yet here in John's apocalyptic book, God gives us an image that transcends the incarnation, an image of Jesus we can really focus on. In A Vision of Jesus, respected Bible teacher R.T. Kendall mines Revelation 1 to show readers:

• The unique promise of the Book of Revelation
• What Revelation teaches us about how to handle guilt, jealousy, and the unexpected
• Who God is and how Jesus is the fulfilment of the Old Testament pictures, as well as our great High Priest, the King, and more

In these pages, Kendall guides readers toward a faith enriched by a more complete image of the Savior. Engaging and enlightening, this book will inspire Christians to renew their devotion to Jesus and share His transformative love with the world.
