    BYE BYE BABYLON 2 - Revelation 19:1-8

    While we look forward to The Lord judging a wicked world, this message addresses how we are to live presently; between the now and the not yet." The video of Johnny Cash reading Revelation 19 can be found at https://youtu.be/1aKwbVhhZcY?si=UOlQ2... Summary: Revelation 19 opens with a heavenly shout of praise after Babylon’s fall and contrasts two symbolic women: the corrupt harlot and the pure bride. Babylon represents worldly systems that pursue wealth, power, idolatry and sexual immorality; God actively judges those systems and will vindicate the blood of His persecuted servants. The book of Revelation presents numerous scenes rather than a strict singular timeline, so the “after these things” moments demand our attention to various sequences as revealed that may not necessarily be chronological. The marriage supper of the Lamb pictures the church arrayed in righteousness, destined for our union with Christ; which ia the glory of redemptive history. Living now, before that final consummation, requires lots of practical discernment. Believers must refuse the love of the world and choose heavenly treasures over temporal gains; while avoiding hiding completely from culture; yet still resisting its corrupting influences. Israel’s fruitful exile in Babylon gives inspiration for us to remain faithful in a foreign land; while building lives, raising up families, seeking the city’s peace, and being a blessing where God has placed us as His people. Daniel and his companions exemplify thriving under cultural pressure. Check out the encouragement from Jeremiah 29. Thriving in Babylonian times calls for a series of “re” responses: realigning with healthy congregational life and purposeful assembling; realizing the futility of human schemes that try to replace God; regaining responsible family patterns; repenting of unbelief and fear; resigning to the Lord’s corrective discipline; resisting destructive heresies and the lure of sensational prophecy; restoring those who fall with measured gentleness; retraining our thinking away from self-centered narcissism; and returning to worship that fixes our hearts on Heaven. . Like walking and chewing gum at the same time, we can live in the world withough being part of it; until The Lord's return

    BYE BYE BABYLON - Revelation 18:1-24

    In light of the coming destruction of the world for its wickedness, we must live in it as influences for God's Kingdom; while staying separate from it and its evils. Summary: Revelation 18 and 19 contrasts two cities and two allegorical women: the corrupt city of Babylon, depicted as a seductive harlot, and the holy city, the bride prepared for her husband. Babylon is framed as the world’s idolatrous system—an economic, cultural, and moral network that prospers by exploiting others and exalts itself against God. This perspective traces Babylon’s roots back to Babel in ancient Biblical times, It seems the world continually builds new Babylons in cities, institutions, and cultural kingdoms that promise security but rest on shifting sands. Divine judgment on Babylon follows inevitably because her sins reach to heaven; yet the response in heaven centers on praise, vindication for the martyrs, and a summons for God’s people to come out of her. This calling stands as the sermon’s hinge: separation without escapism. Believers must live in the world today to do God’s will, but they must not let the world’s values, pleasures, or anxieties become their affection. Practically, separation looks like spiritual discipline and discernment: which leads us to fix our affections on eternal realities rather than fleeting attractions and to build our life on Christ’s commands. This involve our pursuing sanctification through real engagement with the Scriptures. The cure for our cultural conformity does not rest in guilt or fear, nor in hiding from society, but in being captivated by the Savior’s love and reshaping our day-to-day loyalties. Community boundaries matter; believers should limit close companionships that would drag them into immoral patterns while maintaining evangelistic love toward the lost. This teaching concludes with a simple spiritual test: name what would make our life complete and what loss would ruin it. The answers two simple questions reveal where our hearts really lean. Our challenge centers on our mission—preach the gospel so that every generation hears—while living separated lives that are anchored in God’s truth, ready for judgment yet faithfully present in the world today.
