Worthy is the Lamb


These notes are only partial and are designed to accompany the sermon.  Please join us each Sunday morning for the full experience!

Introduction: Revelation 5:9-14.  Revelation 4 and 5 give us the greatest picture of worship.

Worship

  • English - Worth-ship
  • Hebrew - to bow down, bend the knee
  • Greek - to kiss toward
  • Culture - bow before a servant
  • A full picture of worship

"Worthy is the Lamb".  The fact that Jesus is without sin makes him worthy.  The word "lamb" is mentioned 29 times in the book of Revelation.

Typically, a dictator seeks to present an image of authority and power.  Recent examples include dictators who are often photographed and filmed wearing military uniforms.  Contrast this with how Jesus Christ appears to John - in the form of a lamb.  Jesus is the lamb that was slain for our sins.  Is your enemy worth dying for?

Here are your choices:

  • Either the Lamb who is slain and risen is utter absurdity and those believe it are morons:
  • Or I fall on my face and say, "Worthy is the Lamb" He is the true and rightful center.

Revelation 4:6 "stood as a Lamb as though it had been slain"

Revelation 5:11-14
