John's vision of the Son of Man

Okay, kiddo, today we are going to talk about John's vision of the Son of Man.

So, John was a man who loved God and he had a special dream about Jesus. In his dream, he saw Jesus like a superhero! He had a big, bright face like the sun, and his hair was as white as snow. He was wearing a cool robe and a golden belt.

But, there's more! Behind Jesus, there were seven shining lamps and he was holding seven stars in his hand. He had a powerful voice that sounded like a trumpet, and when he talked, people listened.

John thought that Jesus was amazing and he was a little scared too. But Jesus said to him, "Don't be afraid. I am the first and the last. I am the living one who died, but now I am alive forever and ever. And I hold the keys of death and the grave."

That means Jesus is like a really powerful superhero who can defeat anything bad, even death! When we believe in Jesus, we can be saved from scary things and be with him forever.

So, Johnny, that's the story of John's vision of the Son of Man. Do you have any questions?
