Revelation chapter 1 verse 9,

0:06.7

I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient

0:14.1

endurance that are in Jesus was on the island called Patmos on account of the Word of God

0:19.6

and testimony of Jesus. Revelation is one of my favorite books in the Bible,

0:26.4
