Revelation 1:1-3 (The Revelation of Jesus Christ)

In this sermon, I am beginning our series for our Student & College Ministry @ Woodlawn Baptist Church.

Main Idea of the Passage: God has revealed to John what will happen in the end, which when heard and obeyed, blesses the one who trusts in Christ alone.

Conclusion for Audience: We must hear and keep the words of this prophecy in order to experience true blessing until Christ’s imminent return.
