Rev.22:6-21
6 And he said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place."
7 "And behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book."
8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me,
9 but he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."
10 And he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near.
11 Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy."
12 "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done.
13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end."
14 Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates.
15 Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16 "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star."
17 The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come." And let the one who hears say, "Come." And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.
18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book,
19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
20 He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.
See the world in all it's deception...
The beast...
Do not put your hope in government!
The false prophet...
Do not put your hope in religion!
The prostitute...
Do not put your hope in material affluence and social acceptance!
See Christ in all His glory...
He is fully human and fully divine!
He is the fulfillment of prophecy and the final high priest!
He is infinitely old and infinitely wise!
He sees all, knows all and reigns over all!
His purity has no error and His power knows no equal!
His voice resounds with authority and His face radiates with light!
He has the first word in creation and He will the last word in creation!
He was dead for a time but He is alive for all time!
He is the conquering Lion and the slaughtered Lamb!
His worth is undisputed, and His work is unforgettable, and His worship is universal!
His birth declared the death of the ancient serpent, His death de-fanged the adversary, and His resurrection demolished every accusation against the church!
He is faithful and true!
He is the righteous Judge and Messianic warrior!
Many crowns adorn His head, and much mystery surrounds His name!
He conquers God's enemies, and He reveals God's Word!
He rules the nations of this world, and He brings God's wrath upon
this world!
His grace is free, and His joy is full!
He is the Savior who came once, and He is the Sovereign who is
coming back soon!
He is King of kings and Lord of lords!
No one and nothing compares to Him!
See the church in all her beauty....
We are His body!
We are His bride!
See your life in proper perspective...
Fight against sin!
Resist compromise!
Refuse complacency!
God promises blessing for the faithful!
God promises judgment for those who fall away!
Endure amidst suffering...
Do not be surprised by it!
Do not be overcome in it!
Jesus is present with you!
Jesus possesses and protects you!
Jesus has a purpose for you!
Proclaim the gospel of Christ...
To everyone you know!
To the ends of the earth!
Hasten the coming of Christ...
God, give us unwavering holiness in this world ...
With unshakable hope in the world to come.
Amen and Amen!!!!
