5 Meditation and Application Cards During the course place these on mirrors, in the kitchen, in the car, at work. God s Sovereignty Explained God is sovereign He is greater than any power in the universe. God is greater than any leader, government, or religion. God controls history for the purpose of uniting true believers in loving fellowship with Him. Christ s Return Explained Christ came to earth as a Lamb, the perfect sacrifice for our sin. He will return as the triumphant Lion, the rightful ruler and conqueror. Christ will defeat Satan, settle accounts with all those who reject Him, and bring His faithful people into eternity. God s People Explained John wrote to encourage the church to resist the demands to worship the Roman emperor. He warns all God s faithful people to be devoted only to Christ. Revelation identified who the faithful people are and what they should be doing until Christ returns. Coming Judgment Explained Evil will be defeated. One day God s anger toward sin will be completely unleashed. Satan will be defeated with all of his agents. False religion will be destroyed. God will reward the faithful with eternal life, but all who refuse to believe in Him will face eternal punishment. Believer s Hope Explained One day God will create a new heaven and a new earth. All believers will live with Him forever in perfect peace and security. Those who have already died will be raised to life. These promises for the future bring us hope. God s Sovereignty Applied Though Satan s power may temporarily increase, we are not to be led astray. God is all-powerful. He will bring his true family safely into eternal life. Because God cares for us, we can trust Him with our very life. Christ s Return Applied Assurance of Christ s return gives suffering Christians the strength to endure. We can look forward to his return as king and judge. Since no one knows the time when Christ will appear, we must be ready at all times by keeping our faith strong. God s People Applied You can take your place in the ranks of God s faithful people by believing in Christ. Victory is sure for those who resist temptation and make loyalty to Christ their top priority. Coming Judgment Applied Evil and injustice will not prevail forever. God s final judgment will put an end to these. No one who rejects Christ will escape God s punishment. We need to be certain of our commitment to Jesus if we want to escape this great final judgment. Believer s Hope Applied Our great hope is that what Christ promises will come true. When we have confidence in our final destination, we can follow Christ with unwavering dedication no matter what we must face. We can be encouraged by hoping in Christ s promised return. Neil S.
