    The Glory of Revelation: Obedience to God

    The book of Revelation is the pulling back of the curtain so that we can see what the future of God's people will be. This revelation is our glorious hope as we look to Jesus in these days of tribulation and know for sure he is coming back to take us home. As we come to the closing chapter of John's Revelation we have a lot presented to us that is familiar. By way of conclusion we are once again warned of urgency of responding to the gospel. Three times in chapter 22 we are told that Jesus is coming soon, impressing on us the need to be ready. As John looks further into the new Jerusalem he sees the river of life and the invitation is to those who are thirsty to come and drink. This echoes what Jesus said in John 4 and here we see the never ending sustenance of God to his people. But we are once agin warned that there will be no evil in the city, so all that is unclean and accursed to face punishment outside of the city in the lake of fire. What this means for us is to pay attention and not ignore the truth of these words. If we try to doctor them or make them more sensational than they are they we will face the punishment we deserve. Rather we are to believe them, trust in the Saviour and know Glorious Hope in a future in heaven with the Lamb. Glorious Hope is a podcast teaching series from Annalong Presbyterian Church.

    The New Jerusalem: A City of Holiness and Beauty

    The book of Revelation is the pulling back of the curtain so that we can see what the future of God's people will be. This revelation is our glorious hope as we look to Jesus in these days of tribulation and know for sure he is coming back to take us home. Moving on into chapter 21 we have a closer look at the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband (Revelation 21:2). She is a beautiful city who is made up of the church throughout time-Old Testament and New Testament-as both the twelve tribes of Israel and the apostles are marked in her walls, gates and foundations. This tells us that it is a place of witness and testimony of Jesus, leading to salvation and refuge forever. But this is not like the city of Jerusalem we know on earth. There are significant things missing. There is no temple, nor is there the sun and moon to give us light. God's presence and holiness is enough for us. It is the holy city that will never pass away and is the eternal home of God's people. Like viewing a house that has the potential to be our new home, Revelation 21 gives us a foresight of what our home in Christ will look like and we can be ready and excited for it now!

    The New Heaven and the New Earth: Creation Restored

    The book of Revelation is the pulling back of the curtain so that we can see what the future of God's people will be. This revelation is our glorious hope as we look to Jesus in these days of tribulation and know for sure he is coming back to take us home. As the destruction and rancid stench of the punishment of rebellious humanity takes its course, we enter chapter 21 with a new vision and it is one of glorious hope! John sees the new heaven and the new earth, creation restored, and the new Jerusalem coming down to earth. This Jerusalem is nothing compared to the city found in Israel. Today’s Jerusalem is only a pointer to the heavenly one, which is adored as a bride for her bridegroom. At last all the suffering of this world will come to an end for God’s people and they will be with him forever. But chapter 21 also warns us about who won’t be in heaven and it is confronting for those who have rejected God’s way of salvation through Jesus. Their punishment is to be cast in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur. The only way we can enter the glorious kingdom of God is by trusting in Jesus Christ, that his sacrifice on Calvary’s cross is enough to satisfy God’s wrath toward our sin.

    The Thousand Years: The Certainty of Christ's Victory

    The book of Revelation is the pulling back of the curtain so that we can see what the future of God's people will be. This revelation is our glorious hope as we look to Jesus in these days of tribulation and know for sure he is coming back to take us home. In this sermon from Revelation 20 we come to one of the most theologically debated texts of Revelation. The thousand years, or millennium, has caused faithful Christians to think deeply about its meaning with three main approaches to it: premillennialism, postmillennialism and Amillennialism. Those to hold to one of these do so with great conviction. This sermon will approach the text differently and rather than presenting one position will attempt to focus on the main threads that unite them. All perspectives agree that Satan's power is restrained, Christ reigns with His people and evil has an appointed end. This is the good news we are to look to as we see Satan defeated and join with the chorus of heaven in declaring hallelujah for the victory of Christ.

    The Great Last Battle: The Victory of Christ

    The book of Revelation is the pulling back of the curtain so that we can see what the future of God's people will be. This revelation is our glorious hope as we look to Jesus in these days of tribulation and know for sure he is coming back to take us home. Turning to the second half of chapter 19 of Revelation John sees heaven opened and a white horse coming towards him. Here he is seeing a sovereign ruler coming to judge righteously the wicked and rebellious of the world. He comes to vindicate the dead of the martyrs, his people, and leads the army of his people in victory over evil. As the scene unfolds we see the destruction of the beast and the false prophet, who no longer can deceive the world with their lies and face the punishment they deserve. They don't give up without a fight, but it is futile as Christ is the victor. This is what gives us hope as we read this section. Jesus is coming again and will conquer his enemies meaning that we, the people of God, can rejoice for all eternity in his victory.
