Title: Unholiness Rises While Holiness Reigns
Author: Jerry Watts
Text: Revelation 13:1-18
Our message today is from Revelation 13 and is titled "Unholiness Rises while Holiness Reigns". This is an important difference in today's world, but also for the end time. Let's see it in an easy way to remember, "Unholiness is the world's way while holiness is here to stay." As you look at this truth, be reminded that the world's way will one day pass away (unholiness) and God's way is forever.
Consider this; unholiness speaks of evil, unrighteous, ungodly, and from Satan. Holiness speaks of good, righteous, Godly, because it's from Sovereign God. One's temporary and one's eternal.
Evil is rising in Chapter 12 and 13. (READ TEXT)
Jesus was tempted by Satan which should remind us that no one is outside of Satan's reach. Satan knows how vulnerable the human heart is and intends to exploit our weakness. He knows your weakness and when you are weakest. By the way, Jesus didn't use His divine power to overcome Satan. His weapon is our weapon. He used the Word of God, the "It is written", and the word which will stand after everything else falls. The grass withers and the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever."
With the Word of God in your heart, YOU have access to the same power that brought our Lord through unscathed. Conversely, if you don't know the word, you have come to a gunfight with a knife. Let the words of the Psalmist challenge you, "Your word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin." This is the weapons of your warfare which Paul writes are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds."
In our text, Satan is lashing out at mankind and as always, has one goal; HE WANTS TO DESTROY US.
In this world Satan has a stronghold which gives a rise to evil today. Consider the "Revelation" events and see that evil is on the rise.
