Matt. 24:12 speaks about the lawlessness of the end times. This lawlessness leads to a lack of love. Love is a Godly attribute that can only come through obeying God’s laws and commandments which are put in place for our own good and well being.

Rejecting the ministry might seem the logical step–it did for some in Corinth who disdained Paul, and it was for Diotrephes who refused to receive the apostle John;likewise, the havoc of our time has caused many to reject the biblically revealed way the Church of God is organized and administered;However, the Bible shows how that one who has been ordained can also be a good minister of Jesus Christ.

Once the Great Tribulation has started, mankind will experience terrible cosmic disturbances, followed by the great and awesome Day of the Lord, which is symbolized by the last or seventh seal. That seal consists of seven trumpets. In this sermon we will discuss the first six of these trumpets.

The bible clearly instructs that true Christians must bear good fruit.  What is the process to make that come about?  How does the process of producing good fruit contribute to God’s purpose?

Since Adam and Eve ate forbidden fruit, mankind has continously disobeyed the clear commands of God to not eat unclean food.  The consequences of doing so are far reaching and effect the health and lives of the world today.

The world is getting worse and worse we can’t trust any man when we are
feeling down or are having a hard time in a trying situation or especially when it
comes to spiritual matters.  There is only one we can truly trust, God. Size:

Christ spoke of a coming great tribulation of unparalleled proportions. It will be a time of persecution of many of God’s elect, and a time of military defeat of the modern nations of the houses of Israel and Judah. Some of God’s people will be protected at a place of safety, and many will be protected later from God’s wrath to come, during the Day of the Lord. But does this mean that all will escape any persecution? And who will be at the place of safety, and who will not be there? Don’t assume that you know the answer.

God’s covenant with Levi is still in force today. Levites will give sacrifices in Jerusalem, and they will be administering duties in the new Temple. But do we know who the Levites are today? How can we be sure?

Do you understand the biblical purpose for having ministers who preach–both their role and ours?  It is important, absolutely crucial and even imperative that we do recognize the role of preaching in the Church of God!

Hypocrisy is mentioned in numerous ways in the Bible. How can we recognize this sin? How can we make sure that we are not hypocrites? Also, what is the opposite of hypocritical works?

What do the last three horsemen of the Apocalypse symbolize? Should true Christians fight in war? Did we realize that there were no Christian soldiers in the early Christian church? What has been the teaching of the true Church of God on this subject throughout its existence?

Why shouldn’t we observe worldly holidays such as Christmas, New Year’s Day, Easter or Halloween? Do we know the real origins of New Year’s Day, which are very similar to the origins of Christmas? How should we avoid participating in celebrations during those days and, at the same time, causing unnecessary offense?

What does it take to be courageous as a Christian? There are three attributes that the Bible describes. Courage requires knowing what’s right and doing it, overcoming fear, and having faith.

What are the signs of the end? What does the Olivet Prophecy teach us? What do the seven seals in the book of Revelation mean? What do the four horsemen of the Apocalypse describe? In this first sermon of this new series, we will focus on the white horse. Does it picture the victory of true Christianity, as most think?  Or does it show something which is quite different?

We are introduced to the words Mene, Tekel and Upharsin in the book of Daniel. We will go through and see if these words have any meaning for us today.

We are to work with vision–with a sense of the job that is before us!  It is this perspective that will propel us to accomplish the work God has for His Church in the coming years–a time without parallel since the world began!

Many times, we speak too quickly or rashly, without first thinking or considering deeply what we are saying. But God holds us responsible for what we may promise. God is totally reliable and trustworthy, and He cannot lie. He wants to see the same character trait in His children.

We should always be thankful and we are to show our thanks to God for everything at all times.  There are several ways that we show our appreciation and how we can also express our thanks to others.

Our prayers can be a sweet smelling aroma before God.  We must strive to make them so through our willingness to sacrifice our time–in prayer–for our fellow brethren.
