The only-begotten Son of God, the only Son produced by Jehovah alone. This Son is the firstborn of all creation. By means of him all other things in heaven and on earth were created. He is the second-greatest personage in the universe. It is this Son whom Jehovah sent to the earth to give his life as a ransom for mankind, thus opening the way to eternal life for those of Adam’s offspring who would exercise faith. This same Son, restored to heavenly glory, now rules as King, with authority to destroy all the wicked and to carry out his Father’s original purpose for the earth. The Hebrew form of the name Jesus means “Jehovah Is Salvation”; Christ is the equivalent of the Hebrew Ma·shi′ach (Messiah), meaning “Anointed One.”
Matt. 1:23, RS: “‘Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emman′u-el’ (which means, God with us [“God is with us,” NE]).”
In announcing Jesus’ coming birth, did Jehovah’s angel say that the child would be God himself? No, the announcement was: “He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High.” (Luke 1:32, 35, RS; italics added.) And Jesus himself never claimed to be God but, rather, “the Son of God.” (John 10:36, RS; italics added.) Jesus was sent into the world by God; so by means of this only-begotten Son, God was with mankind.—John 3:17; 17:8.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, is a revelation of the person
Jesus Christ, coming in the capacity as the judge of the
world.
The structure of Revelation is built on four great visions, of the
last days of time on earth.

The ultimate "revelation" that Jesus IS God Almighty, the first and the last, the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the ending.
Rev 22:12 ¶ And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward [is] with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
Rev 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, [and] the bright and morning star.

This is one of the most sought after questions, but one of the hardest to fully understand. If you read Rev. 1:1, that is of
course telling about a chain of events to take place before
all of this life is wrapped up. But let's go another direction.
Form my studies, I believe it's talking about the true name of
God. God had many names and titles given to Him. Ex.3:14
I AM THAT I AM(Jn.8:24; 8:56-58) Ex.6:3, He was God Almighty, and JE-HO'VAH. Ge. 17:1; Ge.35:11; Isa.9:6, says
Wonder, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father
The Prince of Peace. This is talking about Jesus Christ.
Once again, He had many names or titles. But there was a
name that was kept secret until it was time to reveal it. NOTE:
The book of Judges cha.13, God appeared on the scene.
Verse 17, they wanted to do Him honour. Verse 18, they wanted to know His name, but it was not time for it to be known. Read Acts 4:7-12. In fact read the 1st.4 chapters.
Esp. take notice of Romans 16:25. There is to much to this,
here is how to get more information. Look at the web site:
www.JESUSCHRISTISGOD.org, more scriptures at source.

Well, you are mixing your Bible books here, the book of Revelations is actually fully titled "The Revelation of John The Baptist". This is believed to be prophetic evidence of the end of the world by some Christians.
I suppose Christ's main "revelation" would be that we are saved only through grace.

The opening words of Revelation 1:1
A revelation by Jesus Christ which God gave him to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place. And he sent forth his angels and presented it in signs, through him to his slave John.
2. who bore witness to the word God gave and to the witness Jesus Christ gave even to all the things he saw.
Here mentioned is the fact that God gave Jesus the signs and he gave them to John.
Now it is up to you to figure out what they were saying.

The best way to get the right answer is to read about him (Christian or Jewish).
Jesus was a really person and if you believe the religious stories he was sent by God to help people have a relationship with him [God] again. Because of sin people couldn't have a proper relation ship with God so Jesus took all the sins that people have committed and are going to commit upon himself wiping the slat clean for everyone who let God into their heart.
Read about it so you can get all the info!

You mean revelations? It's the last section of the bible. Jesus had a revelation about his own death, is that what you mean? I'm confused.

I suppose that you would like the explanation in a paragraph or two? That would be a heavy task. I'm glad that atheists are not burdened by such concerns.
The only issue for us is that we treat others as we would like to be treated on our way back home to Samaria.
