In Those Who Conquer Brandon Lynn explores Revelation, Biblical eschatology, and the ethics of the Kingdom of God. Have you experienced fear or confusion when interacting with Revelation? Then come experience the hope and comfort that Christ intended as we learn how to conquer as citizens of His Kingdom.
Those Who Conquer
12 - Whose Are You? (Revelation 7:1-8:5)
Revelation 7 presents a hopeful interlude at the climax of the opening of the seven seals. John's vision of the 144,000 sealed by God and the great multitude before His throne gives hope and confidence to the people of God suffering on earth.
But also when seen as a response to the 6th seal it led the original audience to consider who they wanted to align themselves with, Rome or the Kingdom? 21st Century American Christians would do well to consider the same challenge. Do you belong to Christ and HIs Kingdom or to America? Who are you? And whose are you?
