Jesus revealed as the Lion of Judah, the sacrificed Lamb, the One who is rightfully on the throne. One like the Son of Man, always in the midst of His people, who's names are recorded in His Book of Life. He knows them intimately and loves them with immeasurable holy love. He watches over, protects, disciplines, and challenges them for they share His present and future victory, as well as share in His present and future marriage supper. He dwells in them and they dwell in Him. He is the consummation of all things and He is returning.
