TITLE: GOD’S GREAT WHITE THRONE 1/20/02 PM
TEXT: REVELATION 20:11 – 15
INTRO:
OF ALL THE MESSAGES I COULD HAVE PREACHED TONIGHT, I’D MUCH RATHER PREACHED SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD OF THIS.
WHEN I FIRST STARTED PREACHING, I KIND OF ENJOYED PREACHING ON HELL, THOSE WERE THE MESSAGES THAT SEEMED TO GET PEOPLE DOWN THE ISLE AT LEAST IN THE (PRISONS & JAILS). NOW A DAYS YOU CAN’T GET THE SAINTS TO SHOW UP FOR CHURCH LET ALONE SEE THEM AT THE ALTAR.
BUT I NO LONGER ENJOY PREACHING ON HELL. AND I GUESS THE REASON WHY IS THE SIMPLE FACT THAT THE MORE I READ ABOUT IT AND THE CLOSER I DRAW TO GOD, THE MORE REAL & VIVID HELL ACTUALLY BECOMES.
BUT TONIGHT, I BELIEVE THIS IS THE MESSAGE GOD WANTS US TO HEAR. SO FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL MOMENTS, PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION.
THERE IS ONLY ONE EVENT THAT NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE IN ORDER FOR TIME AS WE KNOW IT NOW TO STOP, AND THAT IS THE -
1. SECOND COMING OF JESUS CHRIST
AND I BELIEVE HIS COMING IS A LOT CLOSER THAN MOST WOULD BE WILLING TO BELIEVE. AND FOLLOWING HIS 2ND COMING THERE WILL BE A SERIES OF EVENTS TAKE PLACE BOTH IN HEAVEN AND ALSO ON THIS EARTH.
FOR THOSE WHO ARE GOING TO HEAVEN WE WILL BE GOING THROUGH –
1. JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST
ALL OF US WHO ARE SAVED WILL COME TO STAND BEFORE OUR LORD TO BE REWARDED FOR THAT WHICH WE HAVE DONE. I BELIEVE THAT OUGHT TO PROMPT ALL OF US TO GET BUSY WHILE WE ARE DOWN HERE ON THIS EARTH.
AT THAT TIME, WE WILL ALSO HAVE THE –
2. MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB
THIS WILL BE A TIME OF FEASTING & FELLOWSHIP WITH ALL THE SAINTS OF GOD AND THE ONE WHO DIED FOR ALL OUR SINS.
BUT WHILE YOU AND I ARE GOING THROUGH A WONDERFUL TIME OF REWARD AND FELLOWSHIP IN HEAVEN, THIS WHOLE EARTH WILL BE GOING THROUGH –
1. TRIBULATION LAST 3.5 IS GREAT TRIBULATION
THIS WILL BE A TIME WHEN THE DEVIL HIMSELF WILL HAVE POWER TO RULE AND REIGN AND WREAK HAVOC UPON THIS EARTH. THIS WILL BE A TIME WHEN THE DEVIL CAUSES ALL WHO ARE NOT SAVED TO RECEIVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST. DURING THIS TIME, GOD IS GOING TO POUR OUT HIS WRATH UPON THE EARTH AND LITERALLY MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE AND GO TO HELL.
MY SUGGESTION TO THOSE OF YOU TONIGHT (WHO MAY NOT BE CERTAIN ABOUT YOUR SALVATION) WOULD BE FOR YOU TO GET IT SETTLED BEFORE IT IS ETERNALLY TOO LATE.
AFTER THE TRIBULATION PERIOD GOD IS GOING TO COME BACK AND WE ARE COMING WITH HIM TO FACE THE -
2. BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON
THE BEAST AND THE FALSE PROPHET WILL THEN BE DESTROYED AND CAST INTO A LITERAL BURNING HELL, NO MORE WILL THEY PLAGUE THE EARTH. DURING THIS TIME SATAN HIMSELF WILL BE CAST INTO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT FOR 1000 YEARS. AT THE SAME TIME SATAN WILL BE BOUND, WE CHRISTIANS WILL BEGIN THE -
3. MILLENIAL REIGN WITH CHRIST
GOD HIMSELF WILL SET ON THE THRONE OF DAVID. THIS WILL BE A TIME OF PEACE & YET STILL A TIME OF SIN. JUST AS IT IS TODAY, THERE WILL STILL BE PEOPLE GETTING SAVED AND SOME STILL GOING TO HELL. YOU AND I WILL STILL HAVE MUCH OF THE SAME MINISTRY WE HAVE TODAY – WINNING SOULS FOR JESUS CHRIST.
AND THEN AT THE END OF THE MILLENIUM -
4. SATAN WILL BE RELEASED FOR THE LAST TIME
REVELATION 20:3
AND CAST HIM INTO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT, AND SHUT HIM UP, AND SET A SEAL UPON HIM, THAT HE SHOULD DECEIVE THE NATIONS NO MORE, TILL THE THOUSAND YEARS SHOULD BE FULFILLED: AND AFTER THAT HE MUST BE LOOSED A LITTLE SEASON.
YOU SAY WHY IS GOD GOING TO ALLOW HIM TO BE RELEASED? I DO NOT KNOW. GOD FOR SOME REASON IS GOING TO ALLOW HIM TO HAVE ONE LAST CHANCE TO FIGHT – BUT HE WILL LOSE!
REVELATION 20:10
AND THE DEVIL THAT DECEIVED THEM WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE, WHERE THE BEAST AND THE FALSE PROPHET ARE, AND SHALL BE TORMENTED DAY AND NIGHT FOR EVER AND EVER.
AND THAT BRINGS US TO THE MESSAGE TONIGHT.
5. THE GREAT WHITE THRONE
3 THINGS ABOUT THIS THRONE I WANT YOU TO SEE. NOTICE WITH ME FIRST OF ALL -
I. THE PERSON ON THE THRONE V.11
WHO IS IT THAT IS SEATED UPON THAT THRONE? IT IS JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF.
JOHN 5:22
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
2 TIMOTHY 4:1
I CHARGE THEE THEREFORE BEFORE GOD, AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO SHALL JUDGE THE QUICK AND THE DEAD AT HIS APPEARING AND HIS KINGDOM
