    The wrath of God​
    • God has so much wrath because He is love
    • Bible always frames God’s wrath as giving humans what they want…..​
    • ​‘Nobody stands under the wrath of God save those who have chosen to do so. The essence of God’s action in wrath is to give men what they choose in all its implications, nothing more equally nothing less’​ – J.I.Packer​

      Bible always frames God’s wrath as giving humans what they want…..​

      Revelation reminders​

      Less about predicting, more about preparation​

      Three types of book:​
      1) Letter – written to specific Churches in history​
      2) Prophetic – message directly from God calling to act​
      3) Apocalyptic – revealing divine mysteries through imagery

      Revelation is honest about suffering​

      Revelation doesn’t sugar-coat anything​

      – It’s a dream, so everything dialled up to 11​
      – Bible & Jesus always honest, better to tackle difficulties with eyes open​
      If we are worried, maybe that should challenge us to lift our eyes and turn to Jesus

      Revelation is closer to reality than you think​

      First four seals (horsemen)​

      Every culture in history has seen war and its effects​
      Fifth seal​
      Cry for justice echoes persecuted Church (then & now)​
      Sixth seal​
      Everyone, no matter their status, has to face death & what comes after

      Revelation is full of hope​

      144,000 represents complete fulfilment of the Old Testament

      Why the sudden change? So sad to so happy!​

      – Reminded of end of Job, 180-degree turn “happy ending”​
      – Purposeful, should be no doubt it’s worth being faithful to God    and His faithfulness to us​
      – Know in the end, the Lamb will win!

      What next?​
      • SERVE Him – 1 Samuel 12: 24​
      • SHELTER in Him – Psalm 91: 1​
      • Drink from His SPRING of Living Water – John 4: 14​
      • Revelation is the fulfilment of these things​
      • You can experience (in part) now!

        Scripture References

        (Rev 4v1) / (Rev 4v2-6) / (Rev 4v6-8) / (Rev 4v9-11) / (Rev 5v1-5) / (Rev 5v6-7) / (Rev 5v8-10) / (Rev 5v11-14)​

         

        Tim Chester

        ‘Nothing could be more subversive. Instead of the mighty beats of Imperial Rome, we have a lamb. Instead of a victorious General, we have one who was slain. Instead of the power, glory and wisdom of empire, we have the weakness, shame and folly of the cross. We worship the king who was slain and who has conquered through death. As we shall see in the rest of Revelation conquering through death is the paradigm of how Christians should respond to the Empire’​​
