Series: End Times: What's Going On?
Stuart Briscoe
Revelation 19:11-20:15
On three occasions in his visions, John has seen the great climax of this world's history (the vision of the seals, trumpets, and bowls). But now he returns to the subject and reveals more details of the events constituting the end of the age.

A. The promise of Christ's second coming. John 14:1-3; Acts 1:11; 2 Peter 3:4

2. He has proved Himself to be faithful, true, and just.

5. He knows suffering (blood), but He is the Word of God.
6. He speaks truth no man can withstand (sword); He will rule the nations.
7. He will exercise divine judgment and reign supreme (King of Kings).
