Sermon
Why They Glorified God
By Tim Keller
Sermon
The First and the Last
Tim Keller | June 29, 2008
Overview
There are lots of letters in the Bible, but only one place has a series of letters written directly from Jesus to the churches — and that’s in Revelation.
Jesus appears to the now elderly apostle John on the isle of Patmos, where John is in exile, and it is quite an amazing vision. In it, there are three vivid contrasts. Each one tells us something that will make a real difference in our lives.
Let’s look at the contrasts: 1) Jesus has come but is coming, 2) John is stunned but still alive, and 3) we are suffering but brilliant.
