TITLE: Behold, I Am Coming Soon
SERIES: The Ending & the Beginning
EPISODE: 10
SCRIPTURE: Revelation 22:12-21
This is it.
The last words of the Bible. The final page. The closing line of the greatest story ever told. And I want you to hear them straight from me.
"Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."
Alpha — the first letter. Omega — the last letter. I was there before the first star ignited. I'll be there after the last one burns out. Before time had a name, I was. After time takes its final breath, I still am. Everything between the first moment and the last — that's my story. And you are in it.
Then the Spirit and the bride say one word: "Come!"
And I echo it back to you right now: "Let the one who is thirsty come. Let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life."
Did you catch that? Free. You don't have to earn it. You don't have to be perfect first. You don't have to clean yourself up before you come to me. You just have to be thirsty. And I know you are — because every human heart is thirsty for something only I can give.
The Bible ends not with a period. It ends with a promise and an invitation.
The promise: I am coming back.
The invitation: come to me.
And now — let me speak to you, not just as your teacher in this episode, but as the one who has walked with you through this entire journey.
We started in Genesis. Do you remember? "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." A voice in the darkness. Light exploding into existence. A garden. A man and a woman. A world that was very good.
Then it broke. Sin entered. The fall. Brother killed brother. A flood covered the earth. A tower rose in rebellion. But God never stopped reaching.
He called Abraham under a sky full of stars. He rescued Joseph from a pit. He split the Red Sea for Moses. He gave David a slingshot and a promise. He sent prophets when His people forgot. He protected Daniel in the lions' den. He whispered to Elijah in the silence.
And then — in a stable in Bethlehem — He sent me.
I walked your dusty roads. I touched your sick. I fed your hungry. I held your children. I wept at your graves. I told stories about seeds and sheep and prodigal sons coming home. I said, "Follow me," and fishermen dropped their nets. I said, "Your sins are forgiven," and broken people stood up whole.
I was betrayed with a kiss. Beaten. Mocked. Nailed to a cross. And on that cross, I carried every sin, every shame, every broken thing from Genesis to Revelation — and I said, "It is finished."
But three days later, I walked out of that tomb. Because death couldn't hold me. And because I'm alive, you can live too.
I sent my Spirit. The church was born. Paul traveled the world. Letters were written. People were transformed. And through it all — through every single one of these two hundred episodes — there has been one heartbeat. One thread. One message:
God loves you. He has always loved you. And He is coming for you.
That's the whole Bible. From the first verse to the last. One love story. One rescue mission. One God who refused to let you go.
So here's how it ends. The very last prayer in all of Scripture. John writes it, but I want you to feel it in your bones:
"Come, Lord Jesus."
And my answer — my answer to John, my answer to every generation, my answer to you right now:
"Yes. I am coming soon."
This isn't the end. It never was. It's just the beginning. The real one. The forever one. And I will see you there.
I love you. I always have. And I am coming.
