If we read the book of Revelation in the Bible, I imagine it is confusing to some people. They may believe other gospels instead of the truth that is in God's Word. Or may not believe anything at all.
But we as believers can take comfort in the fact that those things that are yet to come will be just that.
Oh, some might say, sure it can. Look at this verse and tell me what comfort that it gives...
15And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:15
Yet, look at verse 14 of that chapter.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Putting them together, we can rejoice that no longer will the devil and his minions will be able to bother us or Intersphere with our lives. For they will be cast into the lake of fire but all who are believers of the risen Lord, Jesus Christ, will have no part in part of the lake of fire.
In fact, this verse in chapter 21 of Revelation says this:
Have you been crying lately? Has there been sorrow in your life? What about pain?
You are not alone. All the world suffers in some way. I myself have faced these things in my life and especially in the last two years. And so, I look forward to when I will no longer experience them and God Himself will wipe all tears from my eyes.
Yes, that day will be glorious for those that know Christ and whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.
Is that you? I prayerfully hope so. For I cannot not imagine spending eternity in the lake of fire which burns forever, and where God's enemies are. (chapter 20:10)
But the good news is as believers, we don't have to imagine that. Because praise God, we won't be there!
Thanks for coming today, friends. Have a blessed day.
