The Vision

According to the Book of Revelation, the Apostle John was in the Spirit one Sunday on the island of Patmos when he saw the heavenly, glorified Jesus, the righteous Judge of all the earth. Depending on the translation of Revelation, chapter 1, Jesus spoke with a voice somewhere between a blasting trumpet and a roaring river. He was dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. The hair on his head was as white as snow and his eyes were like blazing fire. His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.

The ancient city of Thyatira became part of the Roman Republic in 133 BC and was later considered one of the major cities in Asia Province. Today, most of ancient Thyatira is located under the modern city of Akhisar. Archaeology hasn’t revealed much about Thyatira during the New Testament period. Brief excavations uncovered a Roman street and part of a public building. Investigations at the site also revealed several inscriptions and coins.

The New Heaven and Earth

While the Book of Revelation speaks of a terrible time of wrath and woe on earth, it has a wonderful, victorious ending. Can you imagine the scene? A vision of millions of God’s children in heaven declaring praise, thanksgiving, and allegiance all at once as mighty Jesus is getting ready for his return to earth.
