Revelation: The King is Coming

(Revelation 4:7) Angels around God's throne reflect the glory of the One they serve. Each image tells us more about God. The Lord loves to teach through symbolism and in this study we see four pictures that serve one purpose. 

(Revelation 4:2-6) A throne is just a piece of furniture without an occupant. Our God is King and He has not abdicated His throne. Journey with John today and take a good look at the throne and the One sitting on it.

(Revelation 4:2-5) There are some breathtaking views that are hard to forget. John saw a view unlike any other when he was ushered into the throneroom of God in heaven! Take a look for yourself...

(Revelation 4:1-2) Is this the end of the world? How is it all going to end? Christians must remember that God doesn't lead to endings, He brings His people to new beginnings! This is what we are looking forward to...

(Revelation 1:12-13; 2:1) At this moment the Lord Jesus Christ is walking in and working on His churches. Only He can trim the candlesticks to make them give more light in a dark world. Today we ask Him to be thorough with us.

(Revelation 3:14-22) In so many ways the church at Laodicea pictures the church in the last days. There are three things that God says must be open to Him. When we get wide open to the Lord then He brings the greatest blessings.

(Revelation 3:7-13) My favorite church in Revelation is the church at Philadelphia. They were not a perfect church (there is no such thing!) but they were faithful to what God gave them to do. These believers are a pattern for us all.

(Revelation 3:1-6) There is a difference between having a good reputation with people and having a good testimony with God. We are not what we say we are or what others think we are - we are what God knows us to be. Study the church at Sardis and you will see that your name matters.

(Revelation 2:18-29) Someone sets the agenda in every church. Unfortunately, a woman in Thyatira began to teach and lead people away from the truth of Christ. She had the rebellious spirit of Jezebel and tried to take the place that is reserved for Jesus.

(Revelation 2:12-17) Where in the world was Pergamos? Today's study answers that question and deals with the bigger issue. This church's problem was not the world around it but that the world had crept into it. We are in a wicked world but the world is not to be in the church!
