The Last Great Court Trial
Stan Coffey
Revelation 20:11-15
This morning if you have your Bible I want you to turn to Revelation chapter 20. I want to continue with these messages today and I want to speak on "The Last Great Court Trial." Revelation 20:11 is one of the most awesome scenes in the Bible. One of the greatest human dramas that we witness is the drama of the courtroom.
