Revelation Series – An Interlude, Part 5: The Little Book III (Rev. 10:10-11)

Summary

The sermon explores Revelation 10:8-11, focusing on the symbolism of the 'little book' as the Bible and the dual experience of its message being sweet in the mouth but bitter in the belly. The sweetness represents the joy and nourishment found in God's word, while the bitterness reflects the challenges and opposition believers face when living according to scripture. The preacher emphasizes the necessity of meditating on and rightly dividing the Word of God, acknowledging that faithfully proclaiming it often leads to rejection and hardship, as illustrated by the prophet Amos. The message encourages believers to embrace both the comfort and the cost of living by God's truth.
