Jesus speaks one last time in St. John's vision that is recorded in the book of Revelation.
While Jesus speaks “seven last words” while on the cross, it is not the final time he speaks in the Bible.
Jesus speaks again in the book of Revelation, where he appears to St. John in a vision.
St. John confirms that all he wrote down was from God, “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show his servants what must happen soon. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who gives witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ by reporting what he saw” (Revelation 1:1-2).
What follows throughout the rest of the book can be confusing, but many commentators see in it a description of the heavenly Jerusalem as well as the second coming of Jesus Christ.
In this context Jesus’ last words are a promise to us of his second coming.
