The book of Revelation is one of the most important books of the Bible. It contains a prophetic vision of what will happen in the end times, and it also shows us how we can prepare ourselves for that time.
The book begins with an introduction to John, who was exiled on Patmos for preaching about Jesus Christ (1:9-11). John is then shown a vision of heaven and earth, as well as what will happen in the future.
In this blog post, we will examine some of the images from Revelation that show us what Jesus looks like.
The book of Revelation is a source of both excitement and anxiety for many Christians. This is because it not only discusses the end of days, but also gives us a glimpse into what those days will look like.
The book is full of images that can be very difficult to interpret, but one image that stands out as particularly troublesome for many readers is the one depicting Jesus as a lamb with seven horns and seven eyes (Revelation 5:6). The meaning behind this image has been debated for centuries, and it’s unlikely that we’ll ever know exactly what John was intending with it.
However, there are some interesting theories on what the image could mean. Some think that it represents Christ’s role as king over all creation; others think that it represents Christ’s ability to see everything at once; and still others think that it represents Christ’s power over evil forces like Satan himself (Revelation 12:9).
Images Of Jesus In The Book Of Revelation
Whatever your interpretation might be, there’s no denying how powerful this image is when considering other images throughout Revelation: namely those depicting Jesus as an apocalyptic warrior who rides on white horseback carrying sword ready for battle (Revelation 19:11-16).
The Book of Revelation is a book of prophecy, describing the end times and the return of Jesus Christ. In it, John describes his visions of heaven, where he sees Jesus Christ sitting on a throne and wearing a robe dipped in blood. He also describes the seven seals that will be opened before the end of time, each one inaugurating a new series of events that will lead to Armageddon—the final battle between good and evil.
The images in Revelation are meant to be interpreted figuratively rather than literally, but they can still be powerful when taken at face value. The image of Jesus Christ as supreme judge—a divine being who determines our fate after death—is an unsettling one for many people. But it’s important to remember that Jesus is always there for us: whether we’re facing death or triumphantly entering into eternal life with him.
In the book of Revelation, Jesus is depicted as a lamb with seven horns and seven eyes. He has a sword coming out of his mouth, and he has a crown on his head. He also has a name written on him that only he knows, and in this name is God’s power and authority.
Jesus is described in Revelation as a lamb, which is an animal that can be sacrificed for something else. He is also described as having seven horns and seven eyes. These numbers aren’t random—they represent God’s power and authority, which Jesus was given when he died on the cross for our sins.
When Jesus died for our sins, he took away the sin we had committed against God so that we could be forgiven of it. This allowed us to have access to heaven again after death instead of going straight into hell when we died! The Bible says that “God made him who had no sin [Jesus] to be sin for us,” which means that because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross (and our belief in what happened), we can now be forgiven of all our sins!
Revelation, the last book of the New Testament, is a fascinating look into what it means to be a Christian. It’s also one of the most difficult books to understand and interpret.
The text of Revelation is filled with symbols and images that are difficult to decipher. Even more confusing is that the author of Revelation doesn’t explain his own meaning or intent in writing the text.
As Christians, we know that God is always speaking to us through his Word, but this doesn’t mean that reading it will be easy! In order to understand Revelation properly, we must first understand its context: how did it come about? What was going on during the time period when it was written? And what does this tell us about how God wants us to read his Word today?
Names Of Jesus In Book Of Revelation
Jesus the Lamb
In Revelation, Jesus is portrayed as the Lamb that was slain and who gives his life for humanity. Although God sent his Son to die for us, he did not do so because we were so bad or because he had no other choice. He loved us so much that he gave us his only Son as a sacrifice for our sins (John 3:16).
Jesus came to earth in order to show us what true love looks like by laying down his life for others (John 15:13). His death on the cross is a perfect example of selflessness and sacrifice in contrast with our sinful nature which leads us away from God instead of toward Him.
Jesus the Lion
- The Lion of Judah.
- Lion from the Tribe of Judah.
- King of the Universe, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Jesus in Revelations
The book of Revelation is a complicated book that’s been interpreted in many different ways. Some people think it’s about the end times and the apocalypse, while others believe it’s about the world we live in today. Still others see it as a message from God to his followers, encouraging them to hold onto their faith. But whatever your interpretation may be, there are some important things you need to know about Jesus Christ as he appears throughout many scenes in this book.
First off, he is referred to as “the Son of Man.” In other words, he is God’s representative on earth (and also in heaven). He is also referred to as “the Messiah,” which means “anointed one” or someone who has been chosen by God for a special purpose—in this case leading his people through difficult times ahead if they remain faithful despite hardships faced along the way
The First of the Seven Portraits of Christ in Revelation
You’ll find the first of those portraits in Revelation 1:8-9. Here, we see Jesus as the eternal one, “the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End,” who “holds (His) 7 stars in His right hand.”
The Greek word for “star” here is aster. Aster is used elsewhere in Scripture to describe meteors or comets that streak across our skies from time to time—and it’s used frequently in Revelation. So when you read about Jesus holding 7 stars–meteors or comets–in His hand… well… what do you think He’s doing? Do you think He’s just watching them fly by? No! Jesus holds these stars because He controls them!
Jesus holds these meteors with His right hand because they’re under His control: just as He controls all things (Psalm 135:6).
Jesus walking among the lampstands
In Revelation 1:13, the apostle John describes Jesus as “the bright morning star” (NIV). This is a reference to a star in the sky that points to where it’s going—in this case, heaven. Jesus is also called “the light of life,” as well as the “light of the world.” In John 8:12, Jesus says that he gives light to those who walk in darkness. He also promises that he will bring light into our lives when we accept his message (see Matthew 5:14).
Jesus brings us salvation through faith in him and his atoning sacrifice on our behalf. This salvation allows us access into God’s kingdom (1 Corinthians 15:50-54), which represents eternal life with God after death here on earth has ended (see Revelation 21:1).
