Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus

David McNitzky preaching

God's final victory is not in our "going up," but in heaven "coming down."

Judgment is non-negotiable in God's plan. Since all of us are judged, all of our lives are significant.

Over the years, people have made too much of the chronology of the "1,000 years." The idea is that evil is pretty resilient, but will be ultimately eradicated.

God destroys the evil empire for us.

Heaven has enough room for all of God's people

Likely the "666" stood for the Roman Emperor, but it could include anyone trying to put themselves in the place of God.

One interpretation of Revelation 6 is that the effort to conquer sets off a reaction that results in death and destruction. It could be that God uses the Roman's own method of violent conquest to undo their empire.

Sanctuary Sermon

Christians who rest on their laurels are like lukewarm, polluted water in the mouth of Jesus.

Being alive to God involves a constant effort to live according to God's will.

We are called to remember our "first love", which is the love of our community.

As the "revelation of Jesus Christ," we need to make a serious attempt to understand the book of Revelation.

It is important to remember. The Biblical concept of memory invites us to act in love toward others as a way of remembering God.
