This week we will keep plunging deeper into our study of Revelation looking at the seven trumpets in Revelation 8:6-11:19. This is a large chunk of scripture, in fact the largest we will cover in this series at one time, that deals with the theme of the sounding of the seven trumpets of judgment. These chapters in Revelation encourage us to persevere as faithful witnesses to the Gospel in these latter days as God redeems this world and brings his kingdom from heaven to earth. These will not be easy days for the church, and terrible days for unbelievers, but God and the Lamb will prevail. His kingdom will be established and for those that persevere with him in faith all the way to the end, we will dwell in the presence of the Lord forever, have all wrongs made right, and get to enjoy the New Heavens and Earth with Him.
From Series: “2025 – Persevere in Faith – The Book of Revelation – The Things That Must Soon Take Place“
Revelation is a mysterious book, but John tells us in Revelation 1:3 that it is a blessing to read, hear, and follow. In the first part of our series (Rev 1-3) we learned that the book as a whole is calling us to persevere in faith as we see the day of Christ return drawing near. In Revelation 4:1 Jesus says he is now going to show John “what must take place after this.” In the second part of our Revelation series we will explore all that Jesus has said will take place from Revelation 4-22. We will start with the Lamb in the throne room of God, and end with the Lamb dwelling with us in the New Heavens and New Earth. We invite you to come and learn about what Jesus has said is to come and how to persevere in faith through it all.
