Pastor Doug Short continues his series of messages on the Book of Revelation.  In Romans 12, Paul contemplates what the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has accomplished for God’s people. We learn from Paul that truth should lead to praise. In today's message from Revelation 1:4-8, we find John calling us to a similar response to the fact that the Book of Revelation was given to the church with tidings of grace and peace from this Triune God. Although Revelation contains some difficult truths, overall, this is a letter of love to God’s church, and our response should be one of worship.

For further reflection on today's message,  we encourage you to visit our website, crbcangier.com.,  where you'll find questions to enrich your own study of the Scripture passages Doug covers in today's message.
