Horatius Bonar (1808 – 1889) was a Scottish pastor, poet, and devotional writer.
"The Lamb is everywhere," Bonar writes. "He is on the throne; He is at the head of His redeemed, leading them to living fountains of waters; He is in every dwelling and in every chamber; He is the glory over all; Prince, Shepherd, Bridegroom, lamp and sun; alpha and omega, beginning and ending, first and last. He meets you at every step; He is seen in every object; He is heard in every sound; His name is the burden of every melody; and the chorus of each Psalm and hymn is, ‘Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive blessing, and glory, and honour.’"
His mediations in The Gospel According to Revelation include:
I. The Book of the Last Days
II. The Grace and Peace of the Three-One God
III. The Chief Among Ten Thousand
IV. The Great Advent
