This powerful conclusion to the book of Revelation invites us to examine our hearts with a penetrating question: Are we truly longing for Christ's return? The epilogue of Revelation echoes seven times with the word 'come'—a divine number pointing to the perfection of God's invitation and promise. We discover that Christianity uniquely offers not a message of 'go, go, go' like every other religion or worldly system, but rather Christ standing before us saying 'come.' Before we ever had our come-to-Jesus moment, He had His come-to-us moment at Christmas. The sermon explores three comings of Christ: His first coming demonstrating salvation by grace, His second coming when we'll see His glory and be glorified with Him, and remarkably, His ongoing 'in-between' comings—those moments when Christ visits us powerfully through His Spirit in our present struggles. Through the beautiful allegory from The Chronicles of Narnia, where Shasta discovers that the one Lion was present through all his trials, we're reminded that Jesus has been faithfully present through every hardship, every stumble, every season of faithlessness. The call isn't just to be ready for Christ's return, but to be eager for it—because it's this longing that keeps us persevering in faith through tribulation and spiritual warfare until He comes.
