John makes it clear that the Book of Revelation is both an "apocalypse" (revelation) and a "prophecy." This type of Jewish literature recounted a prophet's symbolic visions that revealed God's heavenly perspective on history, so that the present could be viewed in light of history's final outcome. It was meant to comfort and/or challenge God's people.

John says he was exiled on the island of Patmos, where he saw a vision of the risen Jesus standing among seven burning lights. The image, adapted from Zechariah 4, is a symbol of seven churches in Asia Minor. Jesus addressed the specific problems facing each church, and warned them that a "tribulation" was upon the churches that would force them to choose between compromise and faithfulness. In the midst of persecution, Jesus calls the churches to faithfulness.
