Now We Know

Speaker: Rev. Mark Mueller


Scripture Focus: Acts 11:1–18, Revelation
21:1–7, & John 13:31–35


Service Summary: Now we know the end of the
story. In John’s vision in the Epistle, heaven will be like an
eternal wedding feast. All of us in the Church have been made
presentable by Christ, the Bridegroom. Unlike the disciples, who
in today’s Gospel still had to experience their Lord’s absence
from Good Friday through Easter morning, we can be confident that
no one can take our joy from us. Now we know that because He has
paid the price on the cross, the Bridegroom will freely make all
things new. In place of torrents of tears will be the spring of
the water of life. When we receive His body and blood in the
Sacrament, it is a foretaste of the feast to come, and we cannot
wait to enjoy the rest of the eternal celebration!
