February 18 Sermon: The Revelation of Jesus Christ

Edgerton First Reformed: An Evangelical Presbyterian Church

The message for this week explores the Book of Revelation's unveiling of Jesus Christ, emphasizing its divine purpose and origin. Amidst potential confusion, the focus is on Christ's victory, a call to faithful witness, and an urgent proclamation that the time is near.

Consider these questions as you listen to this week’s message from Revelation 1:1-3:

1. The central theme of victory in the Book of Revelation comes from the focus on Jesus. What implications are there for those facing challenges and persecution?

2. What specific challenges and misconceptions about the Book of Revelation are addressed in the sermon? How does Pastor Mark encourage a Christ-centered interpretation while dispelling potential obstacles?

3. Regarding the urgency emphasized in Revelation, particularly the statement that "the time is near," how does the message reconcile the immediacy of certain events in the original context with the broader theological perspective of the already and not yet aspect of prophecy?
