The Christian’s Bittersweet Calling
Preacher: Kevin Nelson Series: Revelation Scripture: Revelation 10:1–11
Takeaway: Revelation has pictured Christ as reigning over the world, bringing about a victory over sin and death. He calls us to participate in that victory by faithfully preaching the gospel to the world. This sweet message will often be met with a bitter response. Being rejected and suffering for the gospel is part of what it means to follow Christ. Strangely, like Christ, this suffering is how the victory is won. In what ways does the bitterness of the gospel overshadow its sweetness for you? How does the meager witness of the church make it feel like defeat rather than victory?
