The Last Verse of the Bible Revelation 22:21

Introductory Thoughts Revelation was written to Christians in the Roman province of Asia to give them hope and courage in the face of persecution It dramatically tells the story of the triumph of good over evil The final statement to these suffering saints The end of the story is their victory through the grace of Jesus Christ

Introductory Thoughts Genesis 1:1 tells us that we are made by God Genesis 3 tells us how man separated himself from God Revelation 22:21 tells us of God’s grace through Jesus Christ The ultimate solution to our sin problem Romans 7:24-8:1 Neither truth, without the other, will help for us

God’s Grace Supplies the Triumph Over Sin Through Jesus Christ The Bible begins with God and ends with Jesus The God of our creation is also the God of our salvation – Hebrews 2:10 Some believe in God but do not believe in Jesus Christ Some would like to have salvation in God without Jesus Christ Some would accept the grace of God if they could have it without Jesus Christ Outside of Christ, there is no salvation – Acts 4:12

The Victory of God in Christ is Ultimately the Victory of Grace Grace is the last word, the end of the story of salvation Without denying that God’s grace is conditional, we need to emphasize God’s grace in the scheme of redemption Ephesians 2:8

The Victory of God in Christ is Ultimately the Victory of Grace The gospel which saves us is a gospel of grace The gospel of the grace of God Acts 20:24 The true grace of God in which you stand 1 Peter 5:12 God’s intention toward those who place their faith in Him is benevolent

The Victory of God in Christ is Ultimately the Victory of Grace To be a Christian is to experience the good things that come from God’s grace Hebrews 4:16 1 Peter 2:2-3

Closing Admonitions Revelation 1:8 We also need to be able to say Amen as John does By saying Amen we are saying we will obey all of God’s word, not just the parts we feel are relevant We need to develop the attitude of Samuel “Speak, Lord, for your servant hears” Have you appropriated God’s Grace?
