Revelation 21-22

It took me 8 minutes to finish the last two chapters of John's revlation. John must have been thrilled to see the new Jerusalem with all its glory and all of the promises of God fulfilled. I wonder if the warning to John in 22:10-11 to spread the word was to keep him from silently reflecting on the power of God's word. It is yet another paradox of how God works. God sends the final revelation of blessings for the whole world to a man exiled to a barren penal island. Only God could have overcome the circumstances and allowed John to deliver his message of hope.
