The Lord’s Work in His Church (Revelation 1:9–20)
Summary
This sermon focuses on the opening chapters of Revelation, particularly chapter 1, addressing the church's current position as an "alien assembly in a hostile land." It highlights John's introduction as a fellow partaker in trouble and the historical reality of the church's existence amidst paganism and persecution. The practical takeaway is to find encouragement and assurance that Christ is actively working in and has not lost control of His church, even in distressing times.
