God’s Book Of Unfinished Business, Part 2
So, where we left off last session, John was weeping because he so understood the significance of the scroll God revealed that was in His right hand. The scroll represented some incredibly important “unfinished business” that needed to be taken care of in order for all of the promises and prophecies of the Bible to remain true.
All I can say is that as we move on in the passage, John’s weeping stops, and by the end of the chapter, all of heaven breaks out into a hallelujah explosion! Hopefully, that’s what we’ll be doing by the end of our time together. 🙂
