SCRIPTURE: Revelation 1:1-18, 5:2-10, 7:9-10, & 21:3-4, 22

YOU CAN ALSO READ KENNY’S MANUSCRIPT FOR THIS SERMON HERE!

REFLECTION/DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

  1. What are some stories from Scripture that you would rather not read? Are there some specific ones that seem troubling to you?

  2. What are your past experiences with the Book of Revelation, in particular? Have you heard or read teachings from it before?

  3. Consider the situation of the book: how does recognizing the genre of “apocalypse” influence your understanding? How might the circumstances of the original audience (i.e. - Christians facing Roman persecution) shape the way we read?

  4. Consider the hope of the book: John is repeatedly surprised to see Jesus as a “bloodied Lamb” rather than a conquering hero. What does this reveal about his expectations? What does it reveal to us?

  5. Reflect on a challenging situation you have faced or are currently facing. How can embracing the themes of hope, sacrifice, and the triumph of Jesus help you navigate through it?

  6. Consider the warning of the book: what is the danger of a 'Culture Warrior' mentality? How might it detract from the genuine message of Christ?
