Message four in the series: An All Access Pass
Have you ever sneaked a peek at the end of a novel before you were done, just to see how it ends? When we turn to the back of the Bible, we see these words in Revelation 22:20 -
“He who testifies to these things says,
‘Yes, I am coming soon.’
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.”
We’ve been looking at some of the great invitations in the Bible. See this one? Jesus says, “I’m coming soon,” and we reply, “Please do. Set things right.” That is the appropriate response to the whole Book of Revelation.
But do we really want Jesus to return soon? Why would anyone invite him to comeback? After all, his return will be quite an interruption! It will signal the end of the age and the beginning of something entirely new.
This week I read Revelation and took notes. While studying it, some simple reasons emerged which answer out title question, “Why Invite Jesus?” I’ve found the material fascinating. I look forward to sharing with you this weekend.
