Manage episode 442817558 series 3604490
For many Christians worldwide, the threat of persecution is a constant reality in their following of Jesus. While we do not have those same experiences in the West, it is important to remember what our brothers and sisters face in other parts of the world. Imagine waking up daily under the threat of persecution. What might you long for or place your hope? What vision might motivate you to pursue faithfulness in life and mission amidst the pressure and persecution you face? In Revelation: All Things New, we’ll discover a glorious description of the end of all things and the great kingdom to come. The Apostle John shares a revelation he received while a prisoner to encourage churches facing increasing pressure and persecution from their surrounding Roman culture. These churches were tempted to abandon the way of Christ as they faced rejection, martyrdom, cultural influence, spiritual enemies, etc. And yet, John writes to encourage them to overcome by providing them a vision of what is and what will ultimately come when God makes all things new. What might also motivate us towards faithfulness in life and mission? Listen to our newest message of the series, Welcome to the New Millennium, and see how John seeks to encourage His audience by showing them how Christ will reign in a millennial kingdom!
