BIG IDEA: Judgment in Revelation reveals the influence of what we love.
Summarizing what judgment in Revelation reveals:
- It reveals Christ as the Lion who reigns as the Lamb.
- It reveals God’s power as Lamb power.
- It reveals how empire brings about its own demise.
- It reveals reasons to live godly.
