Some Christians may be surprised to find out that heaven will be made up largely of people who do not look like them or have the same background.

In fact, scripture teaches that Christ is redeeming a people from

every nation, tribe, and Tom. And that is the reason why we need a global

perspective of worship. Welcome to the Radical with David Platt podcast,

the latest sermons from teacher, author, and pastor David Platt

delivered weekly.

As always, you can find thousands of more gospel-centered

nation-minded resources at our website

radical dot net we need this global perspective of worship however as David

Platt points out in today's message from Revelation Chapter 7, there is a unity to this beautiful

and God glorifying diversity.

Because the Christian's fundamental identity is in Christ, we should gladly lock arms with other believers

to give praise to the one who has died for us.

So we need both unity and diversity in our worship.

And with that here is Pastor David

with a sermon titled Unity in Diversity

from Revelation Chapter 7, verses 9-17.

If you have your Bibles, and I hope you do, let me invite you to open with me to Revelation, chapter 7. Last book in the Bible. What is corporate worship in heaven? What does it look like? And how is our corporate worship today a reflection of what we will do for all of eternity?

It's the question I want us to dive into this morning.

Let me encourage you as you're pulling out your Bibles, if you don't have one, to find somebody around you who does,

we're going to be all over scripture this morning.

Turning a lot, so just kind of get your fingers ready
