The same Lamb who is coming again in judgment, is the same Lamb who went to the Cross for us so we can be saved. This is why we love Him so much, isn’t it?

For those of us who know that the Lamb is the same Lamb who went to the Cross for us, we do not have to fear His wrath.

It might feel overwhelming to think about all the violence and war, injustice and famine, sickness and death that threaten our world each day. But let me ask you an important question. Where is Jesus in this vision?

Jesus’ blood has redeemed—has purchased—all people who will have faith in Him. He has redeemed us from bondage to sin so that we can be God’s people. And this redemption that He has accomplished on the Cross is open to all people.

This is what is being unveiled to us in this part of John’s vision: there is only One who is worthy to open the scroll, and He is the Lamb of God.

What is waiting for those who overcome and keep their faith in Jesus? John is about to reveal more about it.

Our faith in Jesus should affect every single area of our lives. We cannot compartmentalize our faith into a little box labeled “Christian things” that we only access occasionally and think that will please the Lord. If we try to do that, we will be spiritually poor, covered in sin, and spiritually blind to the things of God.
