Backstory to Revelation

Backstory to Revelation  

John has been exiled to the island of Patmos because of his ministry for Jesus for serving and preaching. He had been living in Ephesus and overseeing several of the churches of western Asia Minor. The Christians within these churches are struggling to be faithful to Jesus as suspicion and hostility towards them increases. 

While on Patmos, John receives a series of visions which he is instructed to write down and deliver to the churches of Asia. That becomes the book of Revelation and the message of Revelation is intended to strengthen the faith and faithfulness of the churches.
