Our Big Idea

God’s invitation into His eternal kingdom is extended to you by His grace

Revelation 22

“Some people wonder about the images that we see here, are they literal or are they symbolic?Friends I have to say that in one sense they are certainly literal, but you can’t describe another dimension like heaven without using symbolic language. But friends they are symbols connected to the reality.”

David Guzik

“To look into the face of Christ signifies to be well acquainted with his person, his office, his character, his work. So the saints in heaven shall have more knowledge of Christ than the most advanced below. As one has said, the babe in Christ admitted to heaven discovers more of Christ in a single hour than is known by all the divines of the assemblies of the church on earth.”

Charles Spurgeon

“If what we have studied in the book of Revelation hasn’t changed you so far, I don’t think there is much hope for you. If the warnings in this book are not sufficient for you, then there is nothing more that God has to say. There is no second chance later. You’re not going to pass into eternity unjust and then receive the opportunity to become just later.”

David Guzik

“Heaven is more than a destination; it’s a motivation. Knowing that we shall dwell
in the heavenly city ought to make a difference in our lives here and now. The vision of the heavenly city motivated the patriarchs as they walked with God and served Him (Heb. 11:10, 13-16). Knowing that He was returning to the Father in heaven also encouraged Jesus Christ as He faced the cross (Heb 12:2). The assurance of heaven must not lull us into complacency or carelessness, but spur us to fulfill our spiritual duties.”

Warren Wiersbe Be Victorious pg.186

“But mark thee, sinner, it says, ‘whosoever.’ What a big word that is! Whosoever! There is no standard height here. It is of any height and any size. Little sinners, big sinners, black sinners, fair sinners, sinners double dyed, old sinners, aggravated sinners, sinners who have committed every crime in the whole catalogue, -whosoever.”

Charles Spurgeon
