Intro - Although this book is "the Revelation of Jesus Christ", yet close attention to detail also reveals ssome interesting things about the man God used to write this final book of the Bible, the Apostle John...

• The SPIRITUAL CONDITION of John - Vs. 9-11



• His Humble Identification with the Savior - v. 9a



• His Heroic Isolation for the Savior - v. 9b



• His Holy Intoxication in the Spirit - v. 10



• The SPECIAL COMMISSION to John - Vs. 10-11

Conclusion - Aren't you glad that John was "faithful on Patmos"?

Christian, are you faithful an you "patmos"?

Remember,God has not called us to be "successful" (as the world defines it), but to be faithful.

I Corinthians 4: 2, 15: 58; Galatians 6:9.
