BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 29, Day 4: Revelation 22:17-21
9a) The invitation is one to come to Jesus. It is offered by the Spirit and the bride. The gift is free if you come; all it takes is saying “yes” to Jesus!
b) He is definitely making me thirst and seek Him more and more as I gain a greater understanding of what the world will be like at the End Times.
10) So many people try to twist the words of the Bible to meet their needs. We cannot alter God’s Word. Too much is at stake — literally life and death.
11) “Yes, I am coming soon.” John responds by asking Jesus to come quickly, too. We all should want Jesus to come soon. Can you imagine? And then we don’t have to experience a physical death, either.

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 29, Day 4: Revelation 22:17-21
Jesus is offering an open invitation to people to come similar to what we see in Isaiah 55:1.
God gives freely. We don’t have to bring Him anything (He needs nothing from us). Other religions require sacrifices. Not here.
An invitation to salvation closes the Bible How magnificent!
Bible scholars are unsure who is speaking at the end — Jesus, an angel, or John. A majority believe this is John speaking.
The message of Revelation can be summed up here: Jesus is coming quickly. We are to be ready!
John asks Jesus to come.
Grace to us all. Paul likes to end his books/letters in this way too. (1 Corinthians 16:23, 2 Corinthians 13:14, 1 Thessalonians 5:28, 2 Thessalonians 3:18). In 2 Thessalonians 3:17-18
The last words of the Old Testament are a curse (Malachi 4:6); here it is grace!
How great is our God!
Fun Fact: Jesus announces 3 times he is coming soon (Revelation 22:7, 12, 20)
Revelation is a letter from John asking God to pour out his grace on us.
Fun Fact: In the book of Revelation, the word “grace” only appears in the introduction and conclusion.
Grace is throughout this book.
