Spring Lake Church

Pastor Jeff Lederer continues in our Revelation sermon series.
Revelation: The Ultimate Victory
Week 20
Highlights:
Revelation 21:1-27; Revelation 22:1-5
Heaven comes down
“I know men, and I tell you Jesus Christ was not a [mere] man. Superficial minds see a resemblance between Christ and the founders of empires and the gods of other religions. That resemblance does not exist. There is between Christianity and other religions the distance of infinity. Alexander, Cæsar, Charlemagne and myself founded empires. But on what did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon sheer force. Jesus Christ alone founded His empire upon love; and at this hour millions of men will die for Him.
- Napoleon Bonaparte
1. The Unlimited Presence of God!
2. Removal of Sin and Suffering (Isaiah 65:17-19; Isaiah 65:25)
3. The fulfillment of what God intended (1 Corinthians 15:42-49)
4. It’s a New Heaven and a New Earth (Isaiah 65:21-24)
“I have come home at last! This is my real country! I belong here. This is the land I have been look- ing for all my life, though I never knew it till now. The reason why we loved the old Narnia is that it sometimes looked a little like this. Bree-hee- hee! Come further up, come further in!”
- C. S. Lewis, The Last Battle
“The possibilities that now rise before us boggle the mind. Will there be ‘better Beethovens’ on the new earth? better Rembrandts, better Raphaels? Shall we read better poetry, better drama, and better prose? Will scientists continue to advance in technological achievement, will geologists continue to dig out the treasures of the earth, and will architects continue to build imposing and attractive structures? Will there be exciting new adventures in space travel? . . . Our culture will glorify God in ways that surpass our most fantastic dreams.” - Anthony Hoekema
