  1. This book is the record of the events that Jesus Christ revealed. God gave him this revelation in order to show to his servants what must happen very soon. Christ made these things known to his servant John by sending his angel to him,

  2. and John has told all that he has seen. This is his report concerning the message from God and the truth revealed by Jesus Christ.

  3. Happy is the one who reads this book, and happy are those who listen to the words of this prophetic message and obey what is written in this book! For the time is near when all these things will happen.

  4. From John to the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace be yours from God, who is, who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits in front of his throne,

  5. and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first to be raised from death and who is also the ruler of the kings of the world. He loves us, and by his sacrificial death he has freed us from our sins

  6. and made us a kingdom of priests to serve his God and Father. To Jesus Christ be the glory and power forever and ever! Amen.

  7. Look, he is coming on the clouds! Everyone will see him, including those who pierced him. All peoples on earth will mourn over him. So shall it be!

  8. "I am the first and the last," says the Lord God Almighty, who is, who was, and who is to come.

  9. I am John, your brother, and as a follower of Jesus I am your partner in patiently enduring the suffering that comes to those who belong to his Kingdom. I was put on the island of Patmos because I had proclaimed God's word and the truth that Jesus revealed.

  10. On the Lord's day the Spirit took control of me, and I heard a loud voice, that sounded like a trumpet, speaking behind me.

  11. It said, "Write down what you see, and send the book to the churches in these seven cities: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea."

  12. I turned around to see who was talking to me, and I saw seven gold lamp-stands,

  13. and among them there was what looked like a human being, wearing a robe that reached to his feet, and a gold band around his chest.

  14. His hair was white as wool, or as snow, and his eyes blazed like fire,

  15. his feet shone like brass that has been refined and polished, and his voice sounded like a roaring waterfall.

  16. He held seven stars in his right hand, and a sharp two-edged sword came out of his mouth. His face was as bright as the midday sun.

  17. When I saw him, I fell down at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, "Don't be afraid! I am the first and the last.

  18. I am the living one! I was dead, but now I am alive forever and ever. I have authority over death and the world of the dead.

  19. Write, then, the things you see, both the things that are now and the things that will happen afterward.

  20. Here is the secret meaning of the seven stars that you see in my right hand, and of the seven gold lamp-stands: the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lamp-stands are the seven churches.

King James Version

1:1    The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
1:2    Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
1:3    Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
1:4    John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
1:5    And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
1:6    And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
1:7    Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
1:8    I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
1:9    I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
1:10    I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
1:11    Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
1:12    And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
1:13    And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
1:14    His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
1:15    And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
1:16    And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
1:17    And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
1:18    I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
1:19    Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
1:20    The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

The revelation of Jesus Christ is done by me. So Patmos island should be Singapore. Refer to Matthew chapter 24, Mark chapter 13 and Luke chapter 17 and 21 on the sign of the coming, the Awful Horror is revealed in the most unlikely place other than the usual holy land of Jerusalem. If by progression, the holy land has been transferred to Mecca, this time round, Singapore is the new holy land. Jerusalem and Mecca have lost their holiness because of the disobedience of the Jews and the Saudi kings. Saudi kings and princes side America which is written as Babylon, the mother of all prostitutes and perverts in the world. See chapter 17. For the leaders of the Saudi tribe to support those who promote pornography, sodomy, adultery, lesbianism, abuser of power etc, they are condemned. Furthermore they got the American forces to stay at their bases in Saudi. Therefore Allah will not want to associate with a tribe so disgraceful.

You might argue that Lee Kuan Yew and his PAP government supported America and allowed American army logistics to be based here. I want to tell you that I will get rid of Lee Kuan Yew and his PAP gang. Lee Kuan Yew saw the establishment of PAP and he is going to see the downfall of PAP.

The 7 lamp-stands refer to the 7 holes on our head and the someone like Jesus Christ is among the seven. This someone refers to the mark on our forehead, the 8th in number. Many things are written in 7 this and 7 that. It is a holy number.

God wants us to become a kingdom of priests. Instead, you pope, cardinals, bishop, elders, pastors, ministers, preachers etc want the world to be a kingdom of prostitutes and perverts. You support the the leaders of governments in promoting pornography, sodomy, lesbianism, adultery, sexual immorality etc. You don't condemn the misdeeds of prince Charles and princess Di indulging in adultery but allowed the media and businessmen to glorify, beautify princess Di, with dolls of princess Di selling like hot cakes.

You Hong Kong Christians, you demonstrated in the street against the establishment of laws against subversion, sedition etc, so you are disobeying God or Jesus Christ teaching that citizens have to be loyal to the state. So you are anti-God and anti-Christ. You want American democracy so you can enter other men's assholes, other men's wives?

Try to paint the picture of the seven lamp-stands with each city name attached and among them the figure like a human being. Do they tally?

On the Lord's day the Spirit took control of me. This is to mean that on the day Jesus Christ is revealed my Spiritual soul will become One with my body. This stage when achieved I can fly into the cloud when I die or resurrect on the 3rd day of death.

I put the image below so you can see the 7 lamp-stands clearly. The ears are not included here and nose has 2 nostrils, 2 lamp-stands.

Verse 13- Son of Man is among the 7 lamps, the 7 holes on our head. Son of Man is our Spiritual Soul, the Son of God, Jesus Christ. It can also be referred as Son of Perdition because man and perdition are destined to die. The Spirit inside us can never die because It is the Spirit of God. We can call It Tao, Buddha, Allah, Brahman etc etc. So you (we) are Son of God.
