“The apostle John is the writer of this great book. However, the order that its revelation comes to us is: God gave it to Christ, who sent it by an angel to John to show us coming events. It is a book of many symbols that are alluded to elsewhere in the Bible, which help us understand their representations and meanings. It was written as a general epistle (letter) to ‘the seven churches in Asia.’ Unquestionably, its focus is the person of Jesus Christ, ‘the One who is, who was, and who is coming.’ (Rev. 1:4).”
