Revelation 4   mar 4, 2012 sermon slides
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father
    Almighty, Maker of heaven
    and earth, and in Jesus
    Christ, His only Son, our Lord:
The Apostles’ Creed
Who was conceived by the Holy
  Spirit, born of the virgin Mary,
  suffered under Pontius Pilate,
  was crucified, dead, and
  buried; He descended into hell.
The Apostles’ Creed
The third day He arose again from
   the dead; He ascended into
   heaven, and sits on the right
   hand of God the Father
   Almighty; from there he shall
   come to judge the living and
   the dead.
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in the Holy Spirit;
   the one holy church;
   the communion of saints;
   the forgiveness of sins;
   the resurrection of the body;
   and the life everlasting.
        Amen.
Revelation 4   mar 4, 2012 sermon slides
Purpose of the book of
          Revelation
Revelation was written to give Christians,
struggling in this world against those who
  oppose the Faith, hope that the Christ
 who died for us will also one day return
 for us as a conquering King to establish
     his eternal reign! Because Jesus
          overcomes, so can we!
The structure of the
       book of Revelation
Revelation 1:19
Write therefore the things that you
have seen, those that are and those
that are to take place after this.
Chp. 1     Chp. 2-3             Chps. 4-22

Theophany    Talks     Tribulations Triumph Together!

therefore miss the message Jesus has
                 for us!

#1

How does your view of God
  measure up to the views of God
  expressed by both the four living
  creatures and the 24 elders?
#2
The focus on God’s role as Creator
 (in the proclamation of 24 elders)
 indicates that Paradise lost (in
 Genesis 3) is about to be regained
 and restored (in the remaining
 chapters of Revelation). Praise
 Him for this hope!
