Tonight’s passage from the book of Revelation is Revelation 11:1-6. This is one of those passages that is surrounded by multiple theories and interpretations. And because this is such a difficult passage, we are not going to be able to look at all of the main theories like I normally like to. But what…

As we begin our study of God’s word, let’s start off by reviewing what we looked at last week. Last week’s passage talked about a massive throng around the throne of God. We talked about how this throng was a massive group of martyrs, and how it is likely that this group of martyrs is made up of people…

Before we begin our study of God’s word, I want to remind you of where we are right now. Two weeks ago we looked at the sixth trumpet judgment, which was the worst plague so far in the book of Revelation. In this horrendous plague, we saw how one third of humanity will be killed by an army of demonic…

Raise your hand if you are excited to see what God’s word has for us this morning. Praise God! If you remember from last week, our passage was Jonah chapter one. We saw how God told Jonah to go to Ninevah, the capital city of Jonah’s arch enemies; and instead, Jonah began to flee to the modern-day country…

This morning is the fourth installment of our verse-by-verse look at the book of Hebrews.

In every kind of suffering and every kind of temptation we can face, Jesus has faced it already, and…

All right, let’s jump into our study of God’s word together. As promised, tonight we are going to quickly look at the second half of Revelation chapter twelve.

REVELATION 9:1-12: THE FIFTH TRUMPET JUDGMENT All right, let’s begin our study of God’s word. Last week, we looked at the first four trumpet judgments, as seen in Revelation chapter eight.

Don’t worry, I have not forgotton that we are having a fellowship dinner as soon as I’m done preaching. That’s why I am taking the advice of a wise old preacher. A young preacher once asked an old preacher if he had any practical advice on how to preach a good sermon. This is what the old preacher said:…

Hopefully you remember how last week we looked at how the two witnesses were killed by the Antichrist, but how they were resurrected after three and a half days, and how they returned to Heaven. And in the grand scheme of the book of Revelation, we had been poised in the middle of the sixth and seventh…

Hopefully you remember two weeks ago we began our look at the two witnesses in Revelation chapter eleven. We saw how they were in the city of Jerusalem. We saw how they were given the ability to minister for a period of time lasting approximately three and a half years. We saw how they preached a message…

I hope that you all are as excited as I am about continuing our study through the book of Jonah. In my humble opinion, you would have a hard time finding a more action-packed book of the Bible then this little book. You know, the entire book of Jonah is only forty-eight verses long, and yet think about…

BOOK OF HEBREWS: HEBREWS 4:1-16 HOLDING FAST TO OUR CONFESSION If I have never told you before, I hope you know what a privilege I count it to stand before you as your pastor. It is such an immense weight of responsibility to stand before you and explain the word of God, but I hope you know I wouldn’t…

This week marks the fourth and final week where we will be looking at the book of Jonah. This of what all we’ve seen so far from the book of Jonah.

All right, this morning we are continuing our look through the epistle to the Hebrews. And in case you missed last week, we saw how the writer of Hebrews gave us three exciting differences between the Old Covenant of Moses and the Law, and the New Covenant of Jesus Christ. The first difference we saw…

Well, I don’t know about you, but I truly enjoyed going through the book of Jonah. We saw some of the most important themes of the Bible played out in a story line that puts Hollywood to shame. But now, we have finished the book of Jonah, and we are moving back to our study of the book of Hebrews. If…

I hope that you have been enjoying our verse-by-verse look at the book of Hebrews. So far in the book of Hebrews, we saw how Jesus is worthy of our worship in chapter one. In chapter two we saw the dangers of neglecting salvation, and we saw how Jesus is a Savior who understands our struggles. In chapter…

It seems like forever since we’ve looked through the book of Revelation, doesn’t it? Because it’s been a while, I want to take a minute to give you all a refresher course on what’s going on. Right now, we’re talking about a string of judgments that will fall on planet earth during a seven-year period…

If you remember, last week we got back into our study in the book of Hebrews. We looked at the first twelve verses of Hebrews chapter six, and we saw how the writer of Hebrews gave us three great ways that we can draw closer to Jesus Christ.

I hope that you are as excited as I am about studying God’s word this morning. And while I know that this may take most of you by surprise, we are actually going to take a hiatus from the book of Hebrews. As you know, Hebrews is one of my favorite books in the New Testament. And one thing I love about…

Before we begin our study from Revelation, I want to ask you a quick question. Who, in your opinion, is the most evil person who has ever lived? Would you say it’s Hitler? Maybe Napoleon? Or maybe you would say it’s Nero. Or maybe you want to look back even further and time and say it’s wicked Queen…

In case you forgot, last week we looked at a shadowy man of mystery named Melchizedek. We saw how God used Melchizedek as a foreshadow of the kind of person Jesus Christ would be when He came to earth. The main similarity is that Melchizedek and Jesus are the only two people in the Bible who act as both…

There is no doubt in my mind that we have really been on an adventure in the book of Revelation. We have looked at some of the biggest mysteries in the Bible. We looked at the four beasts, and talked about what they could possibly represent. We talked about the four horsemen, and what they could mean.…
