Bible Text: Revelation 22:6-21 |

Series:

Our last message in Revelation. I have to admit, I’m a little sad about it. As we look at the last few verses, we’ll hear Jesus’ final appeal to his church, and we’ll ask ourselves four important questions as we work through the passage. One of those questions simply asks, Will I hear his heart for all to come? That was a big part of a conversation I had with one of our faithful members last Sunday with them telling me that they have been struck by the patient delaying of God as he appeals over and over again for unbelievers to repent and turn to him to find life in Jesus. Unsurprisingly, we see that one more time in these final verses.

Some people are so heavenly minded that they are of no earthly good.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

If you read history, you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were just those who thought most of the next.
C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

Will I heed Jesus’ final appeal to his church?

Will I trust the truth of his Word? (v. 6-9)

2 Timothy 3:16

Matthew 24:26

Not every “church” is Christ’s, not every “pastor” is ordained by the Spirit, and not every “Christian” is saved.

Proverbs 30:5

Will I preach to those who have not yet believed? (v. 10-15)

Matthew 28:18–19a

Will I hear his heart for all to come? (v. 16-19)

The gospel is this. We are more sinful and flawed than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.
Timothy Keller

Will I be encouraged as I eagerly await the day? (v. 20-21)

There should be a great antithesis between the Christian and the world. Ethics. Worldview. Affections. Culture. Motivations. Everything is different for the Christian.
Grant R. Castleberry

Revelation 15:3b
