Discover the Lamb and the Church
The Book of Revelation is a letter to the churches. These real churches faced very real problems. Jesus, as we learn in Revelation 1:9-20 is in the midst of His Churches and knows exactly what they are going through. For some churches, they take comfort and others are challenged. The letters to the churches in Revelation are powerfully still relevant to us today. It is a strong reminder of the truth of God’s Word, that it is alive and active, sharper then a double edged sword.

discover the lamb – Week 1
On February 2, we began our series on the book of Revelation.
The goals of the series are simple:
1. Learn to read the book of Revelation responsibly, and be resourced well-enough to do so
2. Love the Lamb of God (Jesus) more!
We will accomplish our goals through some introductory information about the book, understanding genre/symbols/numbers and then discovering all the book has to say about Jesus.
Let it be clear, Revelation is about reviving the church to a steadfast allegiance to Jesus the Lamb.
Introduced in this sermon is a few different concepts, some that really came out were:
1. Jesus is King and established his Kingdom in his first coming.
2. The Jesus described in the New Testament is the same Jesus in the first 26 books as he is in the last.
3. The book is about reviving the church, lets discover Jesus together!

Spirit of peace
Spirit of Peace
We need as Christians, especially when it comes to the text of Revelation a spirit of peace.
Where we land in the dating and views of Revelation can be all over the spectrum. But where we land on who Jesus is of greatest importance. Unity over Jesus’ identity is what matters most. This series will be more about Jesus and his identity than it is about his arrival and how precisely it will happen.
As we study Revelation together over the coming weeks and months, we will open a difficult text, come away changed and challenged to live all the more faithfully for Jesus Christ.
The hope of this series would be that we all would love Jesus more and follow him all the more faithfully.
We will be blessed to read and obey the book, Rev 1:3, so let’s do this!
