Starting today, the next several weeks are going to be some of the toughest parts of Revelation to read. They are filled with ominous, graphic, & violent symbolism describing the wrath & judgement of God against evil. I believe the purpose of these descriptions of God’s judgment are to encourage believers, not scare unbelievers. I don’t believe John’s motivation was to preach hell fire & damnation, but to say, “Hang in there, Our Jesus is coming!” For some, God may use these sermons to call you, mark you as one of His own. He may do that, and I welcome it. But for the next several weeks, I won’t be trying to “Scare people into heaven”. I want to encourage & comfort you.
