We have reached the last lesson in our BSF study of Revelation. Although every part of the Bible is a blessing, Revelation is the only book that specifically promises a blessing for reading it. Part of that blessing is renewed perspective on earthly things and renewed urgency for the lost. I have had opportunities to give my books and Randy Alcorn's "Heaven" booklets to people I ordinarily would not. People I barely know. When I asked the Lord if I should give them, his answer was, The time is short. The stakes are high. That sounds like a yes to me. I wanted to write one more poem as a very brief summation of Revelation. It was a blessing to study it again.
Revelation Comes
The Word of God revealed to man
the culmination of His plan.
The scroll that was read is done at last.
All that it said will come to pass.
John, who stood near heaven's throne,
returns now to his exile home.
Judgment will come, but beauty too.
The earth and heaven will be made new.
We'll live in Paradise again.
God Himself will dwell with men.
We yearn for our eternal home.
Come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!
