In this episode of The Word for Life, Pastor Jon Lands takes us to Revelation 1, where the apostle John—alone and exiled on the island of Patmos—encounters the risen Christ in all His glory. Overwhelmed and undone, John falls at His feet like a dead man… until Jesus reaches out and says, “Fear not.”

This message reminds us that the command to “fear not” isn’t empty comfort—it’s anchored in who Christ is. He is the First and the Last. The Living One who was dead and is alive forever. The One who holds the keys of death and the grave.

When the future feels uncertain and fear begins to rise, this passage offers steady hope and unshakable truth. You can face what’s ahead—because the One who holds eternity is already there.
