Greetings from Paul, a servant of God and an apostle {\cf2\super [1]} of Jesus Christ. I was sent to help the faith of God’s chosen people. I was sent to help those people to know the truth. And that truth shows people how to serve God.
Those people say they know God. But the evil things those people do show that they don’t accept God. They are disgusting people. They refuse to obey and are useless for doing anything good.
This is the revelation {\cf2\super [1]} of Jesus Christ. God gave Jesus these things to show his servants what must happen soon. Christ sent his angel to show these things to his servant John.
