In the first chapter, the risen and exalted Christ is speaking to John. Christ tells John to “write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later.”
Katika sura ya kwanza, Kristo aliyefufuka na kuinuliwa anazungumzia Yohana. Kristo anamwambia Yohana "kwa hiyo andika, yale uliyoyaona, na yenye yako sasa na yatayofanyika baadaye."
