Sermon : COME
(Revelation 22:6–21)


Main Idea:

Jesus wins—and because He wins, He graciously invites us to share in His victory with the simple call: “Come.”


Overview:

In this closing message of the Revelation series, we reach the final chapter of Scripture—not with confusion or fear, but with clarity and grace. Pastor Jimmy walks us through Revelation 22:6–21, showing us that the last words of the Bible are not warnings alone, but a warm invitation from a victorious Savior. The final call of the Bible is the simplest and most profound: “Come.” As we look ahead to Christ’s imminent return, the invitation stands for all who are thirsty, all who desire the water of life—freely given through Jesus.


Key Themes:

1. The Trustworthiness of God’s Word (vv. 6–7)

  • The words of Revelation, and all of Scripture, are “trustworthy and true.”
  • God’s promises are certain—even when the timing or details are mysterious (cf. Revelation 1:1; 1:3).
  • Christ’s return is imminent, and blessing is promised to those who keep His Word.

2. Worship God Alone (vv. 8–9)

  • John’s impulse to worship the angel is rebuked: “Worship God.”
  • We are reminded that even spiritual messengers are fellow servants—only God is worthy of worship (cf. Revelation 19:10).

3. The Nearness of the End (vv. 10–11)

  • Unlike Daniel, John is told not to seal the book—the time is near.
  • The response to the gospel reveals the heart—some will continue in sin, others in righteousness.
  • God’s judgment is just, and His invitation is urgent.

4. Jesus Is God and Judge (vv. 12–15)

  • Christ declares He is the Alpha and Omega—God in full deity (cf. Revelation 1:17–19).
  • He comes with recompense—rewarding or judging each person.
  • Only those washed in the blood of the Lamb enter the holy city (cf. Revelation 7:14).
  • The question remains: Will you be inside or outside?

5. The Savior and the Invitation (vv. 16–17)

  • Jesus is the Root and Descendant of David—fully God and fully man.
  • He is the Bright Morning Star—ushering in eternal day.
  • The Spirit, the Bride (the Church), and all who believe are called to say, “Come.”
  • This is the free offer of salvation—grace without price for the thirsty soul (cf. John 4:13–14; Isaiah 55:1).

6. A Solemn Warning and a Final Word (vv. 18–21)

  • Scripture ends with a warning not to add or take away from the prophecy.
  • Jesus affirms again: “Surely I am coming soon.”
  • John’s prayer becomes ours: “Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!”
  • And the Bible closes with the word that defines the gospel—grace.

Scripture References:

  • Revelation 1:1, 3, 17–19
  • Revelation 7:14
  • Revelation 19:10
  • Daniel 12:4
  • Revelation 10:4
  • John 4:13–14
  • Isaiah 55:1

Application:

  • Take God’s Word seriously. Read it, meditate on it, and live it out.
  • Don’t ignore the invitation of grace—come now, while there is time.
  • Extend the invitation. If you’ve heard it and believed, now you’re called to share it.
  • Examine your standing: Are you inside the city or outside? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
  • Long for Christ’s return—pray, “Come, Lord Jesus,” and live in readiness.

Closing Thought:

The last word of Scripture is not judgment—it is grace. And the last call is not condemnation—it is invitation. Jesus says, “Come.” The Spirit says, “Come.” The Church says, “Come.” The only question is: Will you respond? The gates are open. The water is free. Come and share in the victory of the Lamb.
