Thy Strong Word From Kfuo Radio

Rev. David Boisclair, pastor of Faith and Bethesda Lutheran Churches in North St. Louis County, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Revelation 1. “Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore.” Christians shouldn’t be scared of Revelation; it’s the language of our “Sunday” worship and our tradition! And more importantly, it all points to Jesus Christ as our Savior who conquers our enemies and says “Fear not.” Chapter 1 describes the book as a “revelation” or an “apocalypse,” in the same way that Daniel and Zechariah contain apocalypses: Jesus removes the veil to show us the world from a spiritual perspective, especially past and present events. Just as God is Creator, so Christ is the Alpha and the firstborn from the dead. Just as God will bring the new creation, so Christ is the Omega who will judge the living and the dead.
