Sermons on Revelation (Page 2)

Three Woes

The first four trumpets have been sounded and they brought forth scenes of death and destruction. Chapter eight closes with an eagle flying through heaven pronouncing three woes upon the earth. The sounding of the last three trumpets will unleash far and above anything we have witnessed yet. Revelation 9:1-21 And the fifth angel blew…

An Ominous Silence

In the prior verses of Revelation, heaven is seen to be a joyous and worshipful place, with chorus singing and celestial beings crying out. Suddenly there comes an ominous silence. The opening of the seals results in an angel being given a trumpet that will be blown in proper sequence introducing Judgement. Revelation 8:1-13 When…

A Great Multitude

As John looked, he could tell where they came from. There is individuality in heaven. Every seed will have its own body. There will not be in heaven a company of persons all alike so that you cannot tell who is who; but they will be recognisable, out of every nation, kindred, people and tongue. Revelation…

Opening of the Seals

The only one who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals is the Lord Jesus Christ. Only the Lord Jesus is able to execute the plans, purposes and judgement of a righteous God. Revelation 6:1-17 Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living…

The Scroll and The Lamb

There is only One who is rightly and capably the conqueror of the world, and we meet Him in this chapter. There is only One who will take the universe back from the curse, redeeming it from sin, Satan and death. This chapter begins where the previous chapter ended: ‘The Throne of God!’ Revelation 5:1-14…

The Throne of God

There may be a lot to see in heaven, but nothing compares to the throne of God! As we focus on heaven and on the vision in chapter four, we will suddenly come face to face with the One who sits on the throne, the ineffable Majesty Himself. Revelation 4:1-11 After this I looked, and…

Laodicea – The Lukewarm Church

The name Laodicea means ‘rule of the people.’ This church well represents a church run by majority rule instead of God. Its name designates it as the Church of mob rule, the democratic church, in which everything is swayed and decided by popular opinion, clamour and voting. Revelation 3:14-22 “And to the angel of the church in…

Sardis – The Dead Church

Those most tragic words “you are dead” identify the nature of the church at Sardis. The congregation in Sardis was the reverse of Smyrna. Smyrna was put to death and yet lived, while Sardis appeared to be alive and yet was dead! Revelation 2:18 to 3:6 “And to the angel of the church in Thyatira…
