Sermons on Delaying Wrath:

Joshua's Final Words, Part 2 (Joshua 24:1-33) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 29, 2022

Joshua calls them to make a deliberate choice-- for Yahweh, or other elohim. And he warns them, they will fail, and God's wrath will come. That said, he and his family will serve Yahweh.

Last week, in Joshua 23, we read what we thought were Joshua's last words. They were, really. Just, it was only first half of his farewell. And the focus of those words was on the warning. As a reminder, I'm going to reread verses 14-16: 14 “And now I am about to go the way of all the ...read more

Life After Death

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 1, 2024

Those who have escaped earthly judiciary with their money and influence will meet with the Divine justice of God there. No money, influence or human power will stand up there. No sinner will escape the wrath of God.

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 13, 2023

Ch. 14 gives three pictures, rooted in OT thought, of what God's wrath is like. All are (arguably) symbolic, but all are something to be avoided. An encouragement to be faithful, and endure suffering.

Can you live however you want, once saved? (Revelation 14:1-20) One of the main themes in the book of Revelation that we've seen, especially in the last few weeks, is that the church will suffer on earth.

The Day Of The Lord

Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 29, 2013

The Day of the Lord is coming, but if our faith is in Christ, we will escape the wrath of God that will be poured out at that time. In the meantime, we are called to trust Him, live out our faith, encourage one another, and invite people to Jesus.

Simeon and Anna are faithfully waiting but without the obedience of Joseph and Mary, the promises of God would've been delayed. We must be diligent as disciple-makers because to bring people the good news, to bring Jesus to them.

Christmas is over and now we have 358 days until Christmas 2024. If I was a child I’d be a little depressed about having to wait so long Christmas to come back around again.
