Revelation 22:18
Compare all
16 a“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. bI am the Root and the Offspring of David, cthe Bright and Morning Star.”  
17 And the Spirit and athe bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” bAnd let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.  

A Warning

18 1For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: aIf anyone adds to these things,2 God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;  
19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, aGod shall take away his part from the2 Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.  

I Am Coming Quickly

20 He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.” Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be1 with you all. Amen.

Revelation 22:18-19

I testify to every one, etc. - From the fulness of his heart, the apostle utters this testimony, this weighty admonition, not only to the churches of Asia, but to all who should ever hear this book. He that adds, all the plagues shall be added to him; he that takes from it, all the blessings shall be taken from him; and, doubtless, this guilt is incurred by all those who lay hinderances in the way of the faithful, which prevent them from hearing their Lord's "I come," and answering, "Come, Lord Jesus." This may likewise be considered as an awful sanction, given to the whole New Testament; in like manner as Moses guarded the law, Deuteronomy 4:2, and Deuteronomy 12:32; and as God himself did, Malachi 4:4, in closing the canon of the Old Testament.
