The Lamb's Faithful Witnesses: Courage and Eternal Reward
Manage episode 447704845 series 3408678
Key Point
Followers of the Lamb must act as faithful witnesses, confronting evil by boldly sharing their testimony about Jesus. They might have to give up their lives for this cause. Yet, the greatest reward awaits us when He returns, and we'll sing about victory in Jesus.
Focus Verse
Revelation 12:7-10
7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down. 11 They triumphed over him
by the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death.
