Judgment Is Coming (6 of 9)
Series: Kept

Jude 14-16
INTRO: This morning, I want to make a disclaimer right here at the beginning of this message. This morning I'm going to share with you what is really an alarming message. As a matter of fact, this is a message that ought to make each and every one of you sit up, listen up - become aware and alert - for the insidious intruders who try sneak in, unnoticed and undetected, to divide and destroy.
Q - How many of us really pay attention to alarms?
How many times have you heard a car alarm and jumped to your feet thinking someone's car was actually being broken in to?

Alarm #3 would have gone off, but for the fact it was blocked by a contractor's vehicle and disabled by the police control room.
Alarm #4 sounded at 10:43, was reset and went off again.
(Now, if you are keeping count, this is alarm #5, and nobody is doing anything.)
Alarm #6 rang out at 10:44; the man is seen on the security cameras, but still, no one attempted to investigate.
Alarm #7 activated a minute later as the intruder continued his mission, all captured on the cameras. A contractor ...
