Sermons on Revelation
The Story of the Conquering Lamb The Book of Revelation has to be one of the most polarizing books in the Bible. Some people find the imagery and symbolism so confusing, even grotesque, that they seem repulsed.

Revelation 21-22:5 Let’s pretend for a few minutes that you are basically unfamiliar with the Bible – not that different from many people we rub shoulders with everyday at our work, school and community. The only things you know about heaven are from TV programs, movies, best selling books, peoples’ posts on social media, and cartoons. […]
