As John continues to communicate what he sees a large angel and a small scroll. The significance of the small scroll is again the communication of the word of God and several aspects of the words of God are addressed throughout. Chapter 11 moves to the two witnesses of the tribulation period. The chapter concludes with the final trumpet judgment. Collectively, this section addresses the power of the word of God and the opportunity we have to share it with others. Because the word of God cannot be stopped, we can confidently share it with others.
The Revelation of Jesus Christ is written to further our understanding about Jesus. It demonstrates throughout his majesty, power and authority over the events and affairs of mankind. The Revelation of Jesus Christ demonstrates that ultimately – Jesus wins and because he does, we can and must trust him. No matter what comes into our lives, we can and must confidently and faithful rest in the ability of our God and Savior to work in our lives and in the world he has created. Jesus is worthy and “to him be glory and power forever and ever.” As John concludes, he quotes Jesus, “I am coming soon.” John responds, as every believer can and should – Come, Lord Jesus!
