Sunday Service from January 23, 2022 Sermon from Revelation 1:9-20 For Further Study: 1) What are some things that you know (from the sermon or other Bible studies) about the Apostle John? What stories from the NT can you think of that show the special closeness he had with Jesus? Knowing how close John was to Jesus, what do you learn from his reaction to seeing the vision of Jesus on Patmos? 2) What symbol does Jesus use in Revelation 1 to represent the church? What does that teach us about Jesus' plan for each of his congregations? 3) In his vision, John saw that Jesus was among the Lampstands. What does this symbolize to us? How aware do you think Jesus is when it comes to the needs of his congregations?
