At the end of God’s great redemptive story is the promise of eternal life in heaven with him. But what is the nature of that eternal life? For my people heaven appears boring, mysterious, and vague. In this section of Revelation we get a great vision of God’s glorious plans for his children.

As the Scriptures unfold the picture of God’s plans become clearer. With the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, Christians now have a message to proclaim. It is not a message of self-help, its a message of God’s wonderful offer of forgiveness which now comes through Jesus.

God uses a symphony of testimonies to provide certainty that Jesus is God’s promised king, the one promised to usher in God’s kingdom, and the only hope for humanity.

God speaks through His Prophets to raise our eyes to blessing above and beyond our earthly hopes and dreams.

In God’s unfolding story we continue to see God’s plan coming to pass through ordinary people. In 2 Samuel we see David graciously engaging with king David through promising to establish through him the one who will bring about God’s eternal plans.

There are not many topics that are more interesting yet less clear for us than Angels and Demons? Do they exist? If so, what do they do? Should I be afraid? What role if any should the unseen realm play in my day-to-day life? How do we think about Angels and Demons in light of the good news of Jesus?
