Covenant Reformed Presbyterian Church Unknown

Today we come to chapter 13 where we are told how to behave ourselves among all whom Christ has redeemed. We might call this chapter- 'Rules of Conduct for Pilgrims Who are Going to God's House in Glory.' Today, we will look at the first thing that is said about this conduct. It sums up all the rest.

This afternoon, I want to look at five things we can learn from Revelation 11-7-14. First, learn that you must finish the work that God has given you to do. Second, learn how important it is for us and our people to receive the testimony that God gives us. A third thing we learn from our text is the identity of the one God often uses to take away His witness from us, from our churches and from our nations. A fourth thing our text shows us is that there are times when it looks as though the church and her witness have been defeated. We are taught, or reminded, that the Lord will always have the last word.

In our Revelation sermon series, we will begin chapter 11 today. This part of the vision has to do with the interval between the sixth and seventh judgments that are initiated by the blowing of trumpets. Something ominous is about to happen.

Jesus rose from the dead. So what-- What does that have to do with any of us-- Today, I want to show you why the resurrection matters so much to us as believers.
