15. Does Christ have the keys of hell and death? What does this mean? Revelation 1:18.
Note: Over 2,000 years ago the name of Christ was first made known. Christ said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: No man cometh to the Father, but by me." Many became offended and fell by the wayside. Fellow students, be careful to be kept in His name, and exalt it to the highest; and rejoice that you are a member of the Body of Christ. (I Corinthians 12:27).
