Series: End Times - What's Going On? (1 of 4)
by Stuart Briscoe
As we approach Revelation, we should bear three things in mind: It is ''Apocalypse,'' a unique literary genre that requires careful study; it is a ''prophecy,'' which deals with proclamation and prediction; and a ''letter,'' which handles pastoral concerns. I. The Prologue: Introducing Revelation. vv. 1-3 A. Revelation is an ''unveiling'' of Jesus Christ by God to John for his servants. B. Revelation deals with issues that ''must soon take place.'' C. Revelation is ''The word of God'' and the ''testimony of Jesus.''D. Revelation contains a special blessing for those who ''take it to heart.'' II. The Salutation. vv. 4-8 A. A. A letter from John to the...
What Are the Signs of the End Time and How Can I Be Ready?
by David Cook
Introduction: Does anyone really know what time it is? I'm not talking about the hour of the day; I'm talking about the time of the Lord Jesus Christ's rapture of the church! Do you know what time it is spiritually speaking? Are you ready to see Jesus face to face? Let's dig into God's Word and find some answers about the signs of the times and also become ready to meet with Jesus at any time. I. These Are Difficult Times "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come..." (1) You ought to underline or circle that word "perilous." The word perilous means "hard to bear" or "hard to deal with." How many of...
The Danger of 666 (2 of 3)
by Jeff Strite
It was testimony night in the church. A lady got up and said, ''We are living in a wicked land where sin is on every hand. I have had a terrible fight with the old devil all week.'' Where upon her husband, who was sitting glumly by her side said, ''It's not all my fault either; she's tough to get along with.'' I. The devil is up for a terrible fight. We know I John 5:18 tells us that the ''evil one cannot touch us''… but that doesn't stop Satan from trying. Rev. 12:10-12 tells us 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: ''Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who...
A Sneak Preview of the Judgment Seat (2 of 8)
by Ken Trivette
On December 31, 1999, almost six billion people worldwide will welcome in the new millennium with the greatest New Year's Eve parties ever held in our lifetime. They will celebrate by counting down the final seconds of the last year of this momentous twentieth century, but it is not only the party-goers who will be counting time. Around the world, hundreds of millions of computers will also make the transition from the old year to the new, from 1999 to the year 2000. And when they do, many of these engines of modern society will begin to crash or malfunction, precipitating a global crisis, the scope of which we have not experienced...
In the Twinkling of an Eye (3 of 8)
by Jeff Schreve
In 1995 Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins wrote a book it was called "Left Behind" it was the first in a series of books about the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ, it was wildly successful. The series sold 65 million copies it made 650 million dollars. And the first book was simply titled "Left Behind" and it talked about this thing called the rapture and what happens to those who are left behind. I want to leave you an excerpt from that book "Local television stations from around the world reported bizarre occurrences, CNN showed via satellite the video of a groom disappearing while slipping the ring onto his bride's finger. A funeral home in Australia...
A Word about the End Times
by David Cawston
To gather the setting of this chapter, we need to take a look at the sequence of events.- Mark 11:1-12 starts the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, which is Sunday of His final week. It is here that the crowd goes out to meet Him as He enters Jerusalem and in verse 11 of chapter 11 that He returns back to Bethany to stay for the end of the first day, that is Sunday. - The final week Monday starts with the twelfth verse of Mark 11, when His popularity is still at a high peak and He curses the fig tree and He cleanses the temple. It concludes in the 19th verse. The second day Monday of the final week is recorded...
America in End-Times Prophecy (10 of 10)
by Stan Coffey
Today we are going to be looking first of all in the Book of Haggai as we come to the last of our series on ''America In Crisis.'' And today we are talking about ''America In Bible Prophecy.'' Some of you will know a great deal about this and some of you will know a little bit about and some of you may not know too much at all, but hopefully it will be a message that is informative to all of us and will mean something to all of us because it is a very, very important subject, ''America in End Times Prophecy.'' Haggai 2:6-7 ''This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry...
The End of the World (1 of 2)
by Marvin D. Patterson
A pastor visited an older man. The Pastor said, ''At your age you should be thinking about the hereafter.'' The older man replied, ''Oh, I do all the time. No matter where I am - in the living room, upstairs, in the kitchen, or down in the basement - I ask myself 'What am I here after?'''Introduction: We are moving into the third chapter of this second Epistle that Simon Peter wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit of God! We saw in chapter one that we are to continue our Christian growth in the Lord by building upon our faith in the Lord. Listen to what Peter says back in 2 Peter 1:5-7,5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to...
The Beginning of the End (1 of 39)
by James Merritt
I am beginning a series of messages entitled, ''The King Is Coming'' I for that is the theme of the book of the revelation, every now and then someone will say, ''what is this world coming to?'' I can tell you what it is coming to; it is coming to Jesus, this world is like a giant bowling ball hurtling down the alley of this universe toward the ''kingpin whose name is Jesus, history is really ''his'' story. 2. The first chapter of the book of the revelation is ''the beginning of the end.'' genesis 1 introduces us to how this world began. Revelation 1 introduces us to how it is all going to end. In genesis we have the commencement of heaven and earth...
Jesus Is Coming Again (3 of 3)
by Ernest Easley
One of the great themes and truths found throughout the Bible is the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Just as there was a first coming of Jesus, there is going to be a second coming! Now last week somebody asked me about the second coming. They asked if what we find in I Thessalonians 4 was a reference to the time Jesus returns to earth to set up His kingdom. Well, when you consider all the passages about the second coming, you will find that His return really comes in two stages or phases. For instance, look with me to I Thessalonians 5:1-7, and then Revelation 1:7, ''Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every...
The Purpose of Walls
by Jeff Strite
Once upon a time, there were three little pigs. (You’ve heard this one, haven’t you?) The first little piggy built his house of straw, and the big bad wolf came and huffed and puffed and blew that house down. The second piggy built his house of sticks, and the big bad wolf came and huffed and puffed and blew that house down. But the third built his house and bricks, and the big bad wolf came and huffed and puffed and huffed and puffed and huffed and puffed and could not bring down that house… Because he had built with the right stuff. God has built His church.And when God built his church, he built it with the right stuff. But, if you were to...
Living with Purpose
by Christopher Harbin
There are many reasons we give for our existence. There are many objectives we set forth in life as giving our lives meaning and purpose beyond simple existence. Beyond questions of having a reason to live, however, there is always the question of how our lives can contribute to a worthwhile mission. Do we live as though there is a greater purpose to our lives than the simple questions of existence and self-fulfillment? Is there a larger purpose behind our actions, decisions, and way of living? Paul's letter to Titus contains a list of general advice. Much of the advice in chapter two is not very spiritual. We might wonder at that...
Church's Purpose
by Stephen Whitney
In January 2012 the Lutheran Church of All Saints in Stockholm Sweden added a Friday night "techno mass' accompanied by ultraviolet lights where the young dance in the isles to the beat of the rock band up on the stage. This Friday night mass is the church's latest attempt to attract young people in a country where attendance at services has been dwindling for decades. Over the past 10 years, membership in Sweden's Lutheran church has fallen 13% and attendance at regular Sunday services plunged 50% to 4.6 million in 2011. Priest Olle Idestrom organizes the mass and says that the feedback has been...
The Purpose of the Path
by Mark Baker
James 4:14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. The older I get the more I realize how precious and valuable my time is. Time is something we only have once, so we have to make good use of it. We only have so many days to do what we have been given to do here on the Earth, and I want my days to count. I think most people would say the same thing if asked, but are they consciously making the choices that will really count when it's all said and done? I have my share of regrets and I realize that I can not undo...
A Life with Purpose
by Rex Yancey
In 1936, Kenneth S. Latourette wrote a book entitled Missions Tomorrow. In 1947, he co-authored a book entitled Tomarrow Is Here. The titles of these two books seem to speak about man's attitude as contrasted to the Lord's attitude concerning missions and evangelism. Men often say, ''Tomorrow.'' But God says, ''Tomorrow is here.'' The time to act is now. Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote, ''One of the illusions of life is that the present hour is not the critical, decisive hour.'' He was right on two counts. Our time is now, whatever time it is. And, we often live with the illusion that the time is not the critical moment for decision and action...
One Purpose
by Ron Dunn
If God is going to use you, Sunday School teacher, deacon, Christian, you must choose one great purpose in life. I think the great purpose that every Christian ought to have for his life is the purpose that Paul revealed in the twentieth verse of Philippians, chapter one. According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. What is the one absorbing purpose? That Christ shall be magnified in my body. To me, I cannot think of any greater purpose in life than that. That ought to be the sole...
Israel's Priesthood and Humanity's Purpose (14 of 17)
by Drew Hunter
When we think about life as a Christian, there are three orientations. We are oriented upward, inward, and outward. Upward toward God, inward toward one another in the church, and outward toward the world in Mission. We are oriented toward God as we hear from him in the Bible and as we speak to him in prayer. We are oriented inward in the church as we cultivate a culture of love and friendship and service. And we are oriented outward in our vocations and work, and as we live as witnesses to Christ. Three words we use here to describe these are worship, community, and mission. Worship is our upward orientation...
Free to Embrace the Purpose of Freedom (8 of 10)
by Josh Malone
ILLUS. Have you ever been gotten something and then lost or lost the ability to use it before you got to experience it? It'd be like getting a gift card but losing it... or the restaurant closes down. OR Someone buys a saltwater boat then their job transfers them far from the ocean. (Waste)Good News this morning... Christianity is not a waste. - What Jesus has purchased for you on the cross he intends for you to EXPERIENCE. Functionally. Daily. Practically. Today, we continue our series in Galatians called Free. At this point in the book Paul is getting ready to transition from laying down the doctrine, and...
A Miracle of Purpose (12 of 16)
by Richard Bradley
Why think about miracles that occurred over 2,000 years ago? Studying the miracles of Luke's gospel will do at least three things for us. It will give us a clear picture of what God is thinking and how He feels. But more importantly we'll discover what He's capable of doing. It's interesting to know what God is thinking and how He feels but when we find ourselves in a world of hurt we want to know, ''What can God do for me?''Can God still do the things He demonstrated through Jesus' life and ministry? Yes! After all, He's the unchanging God of all power and authority. In fact, Jesus communicated this very message in Revelation 1:8:...
