The Christian's Perspective

---

Text: Revelation 21

---

For the Christian our best life is not on this earth but is the life to come when we are in Heaven. As Christians we are to have the proper perspective of this life.
Outline:

1) Absence (vs. 1&4) - The old world is characterized by sin but the new world will be perfect. It is characterized by the absence of those who have not trusted in Christ for their salvation. In verse 4 we see that there is no more death.

2) Continual Presence - we will continually enjoy the presence of the Lord (vs. 2) Are we ready for the presence of the Lord?  See also Revelation 21:5 where we see that these words are faithful and true.
