THE BITTER AND THE SWEET
Revelation 10:8-11
INTRODUCTION
THERE IS A GREAT MESSAGE HERE
IT IS ABOUT THE SWEETNESS OF BELIEF IN CHRIST
IT IS ABOUT THE BITTERNESS OF UNBELIEF AND REJECTION OF CHRIST.
I. FIRST, NOTICE THE IDENTITY OF THE SCROLL
A. I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE SEEN THIS SCROLL BEFORE
B. NOTICE THE SCROLL IS OPEN IN THE ANGEL’S HAND
C. THIS SCROLL REPRESENTS OUR LOST OR FORFEITED INHERITANCE
II. NEXT, NOTICE THE INSTRUCTION CONCERNING THE SCROLL
A. THE ANGEL TELLS JOHN TO TAKE THIS SCROLL AND EAT IT
B. THERE IS A PROFOUND TRUTH ABOUT THE WORD OF GOD IN THIS PASSAGE
THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS AS SWEET AS HONEY!
BUT, THERE IS A BITTERNESS IN THE WORD OF GOD TO THOSE WHO REJECT GOD’S SON
CONCLUSION
THE TRUE MESSAGE OF GOD HAS BOTH SIDES TO IT
THE BITTER AND THE SWEET.
BOTH MESSAGES MUST BE DELIVERED.
THERE ARE TWO CHOICES. THERE ARE TWO RESULTS.
TO RECEIVE CHRIST OR TO REJECT HIM
