The Centrality of Christ, Revelation 1:9-20
Notes
- Read Revelation 1:9-20. What stands out to you the most from the passage or from the sermon?
- The passage says that John was in the Spirit on the Lord's day. What does that mean, and how might regular worship shape our sensitivity to hear from God?
- When John turns to see Jesus standing in glory, what aspects of this vision stand out to you the most and why?
- In what ways does this picture of Jesus differ from how we often picture him? And how does an incomplete or skewed view of Jesus affect our everyday faith?
- John falls down at Jesus' feet "as though dead." What does his reaction teach us about the holiness and authority of Christ and our response when we see him for who he really is?
- Jesus responds to John with the words, "Fear not." Which of the reasons Jesus gives to not be afraid do you find the most comforting during trials?
- How does this passage increase your faith and confidence in Jesus?
