What is Your Response to the Lamb Slain: Calvary Baptist Church Message Archive #4
References: Revelation 5:12-12
Dr. Stephen Olford challenges us with the truths from Revelation 5:12 to evaluate in our own personal walks with the Lord whether our estimate of the Lamb slain is the same as Heaven's estimate of Him.
For there we read of all the Heavenly beings "Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing!"
Do our lives declare this reality in heart-felt daily worship?
Praise to the Lord that it is possible!
