Additional information
by Stephen Kaung (Author)
Stephen Kaung goes through seven visions of Christ that are revealed in the book of Revelation. All of the prophecies given are meant to bring us to the testimony of Jesus (Revelation 19:10). The many and varied details are simply part of the background to the sight of Christ.
God also wants us to not only see Christ but to see Him in light of our current time, the end of days. With vision, we will no longer "cast off restraint" (Proverbs 29:18) but will instead be transformed and enabled to help bring in His kingdom.Table of Contents

Where there is no vision the people cast off restraint. (Proverbs 29:18)
Today, more than ever, it is most important that the Lord's people have vision because "without vision, the people perish." We believe that God wants us to see His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, in relation to our time, that is, to see Him in the light of the end days. For this we find a series of seven visions of Christ given in the book of Revelation, culminating with the seventh vision. There we see the fulfilment of the eternal purpose of God and the manifestation of eternal reality.
In 1978, brother Stephen Kaung spoke a series of messages on these seven visions before a group of Christians in Richmond, Virginia. Just prior to that, he shared a message which is foundational to these seven visions entitled: "The Testimony of Jesus." That message is included in this printing as the introduction.
Our brother's desire during these times of ministry was that the Lord would deliver usfrom the many things that we might see the one thing that is upon His heart--the testimony of Jesus. His prayer was that the Lord's testimony might be uplifted, that many lives might be transformed and delivered, so that His kingdom might come.
May the Lord find such a people in these days: transformed, delivered, and ready for His soon return.
