Ihope you've enjoyed going through the Gospel of Luke as much as I have. I'velearned so much, and it's been a great joy sharing this book with you overthese past months. As we finish the book of Luke over the next few days, I getso excited looking at these final verses because God didn't just save us to sitand soak. He saved us and redeemed us that we might go and speak and share thatwhich we've heard, that which we've seen, and that which we have handled withour own hands of the Word of life.  Aswe read these final verses, Jesus is revealing Himself to His disciples andassuring them that He indeed is risen from the dead, because everything hingeson that. These eleven men, who were uneducated and came from places nobody knewabout except as fishermen, were called to change the world. God has given usthat commission also. Jesus said in verse 44, "These are the wordswhich I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must befulfilled, which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and thePsalms concerning Me.”  Bythe way, just before He spoke these words, it says that He ate with them. Ibelieve we're going to eat in heaven. I'm not sure we're going to eat animals,but we possibly will eat fish from the river of life and eat fruit that isgrowing from the fruit trees growing on the sides of the river coming out fromunderneath the throne of God (Revelation 22:1-2). Jesusthen “opened their understanding that they might understand the Scriptures”.It's important, if we're going to be the witnesses He wants us to be, that wehave an understanding of the Scriptures by the Holy Spirit. In verse 46, Hesays, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for Christ tosuffer and to rise from the dead the third day." That's the essence ofthe gospel: Christ suffered for our sins and He rose the third day.  Verse47 continues, "and that repentance and remission of sins should bepreached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem." Thegospel being shared starts at home, in our own family, our neighborhood, theneighborhood around our church, our community, and then goes throughout thewhole world. Jesus said in verse 48, "And you are witnesses of thesethings." The word "witness" comes from the Greek wordfrom which we get our word "martyr." You're going to be someone whois willing to die, someone who has died to self, as a living testimony of thesethings.  Jesuscontinues, "Behold, I send the promise of My Father upon you, but tarryin the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."We cannot do this task of taking the gospel to the ends of the earth withoutthe enduing of the power of the Holy Spirit upon our lives, as the Gospelsteach. I love what we read in 1 John 1:1-3, because John, this wonderfuldisciple, would later write, "That which was from the beginning, whichwe have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon andour hands have handled concerning the Word of life." My friend, wehave the Word of life in our hands, called the 66 books of the Bible. As wehandle them, we handle Jesus. We love Him, we see Him, we hear Him, He speaksto us.  Johngoes on to write, "The life was manifested, and we have seen and bearwitness and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and wasmanifested to us. That which we have seen and heard, we declare to you."My friend, that's what you and I have been called to do as followers of JesusChrist. These powerful verses remind us that it is God who works in us andthrough us to do His perfect will and to manifest the wonderful works of God.  Augustinesaid, "Preach the gospel, and if necessary, use words”. Because itwill show up in our lives as those who are crucified followers of Jesus Christourselves (Galatians 2:20).  And by theway, it will be necessary to use words. Godbless!

The recent 50th anniversary celebrations of Pastor Wes's ministry as a pastor of KCI were a milestone in the history of this church. We were able to look back with great thankfulness and to rejoice at how the Lord has helped him to continue the gospel legacy of his father, Pastor Billy Richards, who started this church over 80 years ago. And now we must look forward to the challenge of each successive generation taking up the baton to develop the legacy that has been received in this church and in this nation. For God's purposes and promises are for all generations (Psalm 119:90).   From the beginning this was God's plan for Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The blessing of God on these three generations paved the way for generations to come, notably through the 12 tribes of Jacob and the nation of Israel. But each generation must encounter and serve God in their generations. It's not guaranteed that every succeeding generation will serve the Lord. The fires of revival and Christian influence can go out if not attended to. That has happened time and again in history and in many churches and nations. Many colleges, including universities in the United States, started out as Christian institutions to train young people for ministry and Christian service. Schools like Harvard (Puritan), William and Mary (Anglican), Yale (Congregational), and Princeton (Presbyterian) were created for Christian higher education. The Great Awakening led to the founding of Princeton, Brown, Rutgers, and Dartmouth in the mid-eighteenth century. Over time, however, the revival spirit that founded these institutions was lost, and most of these former Christian colleges and universities became secular universities with little or no religious affiliation.    Generational blessings can be lost very quickly if the next generations do not walk in the godly ways of those who have gone before them. After the years of amazing leadership from Moses and Joshua we read these sobering verses in Judges 2:10-12: ‘After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, another generation grew up who knew neither the Lord nor what he had done for Israel. Then the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord…. They forsook the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt. They followed and worshiped various gods of the peoples around them.'  Subsequently, we read in Israel's history of ongoing battles for godly legacy to continue in each generation. Specifically, we are focussing on three Bible Kings: David, his son Solomon and his son Rehoboam, for they serve as a warning and a challenge to us about how much can be lost, as well as gained, in just three generations.    1. David started well and finished well despite his failures (1 Kings 15:5) 2. Solomon started well and finished badly (2 Samuel 7:11-16; 1 Kings 11:1-12)  3. Rehoboam started badly and finished worse (1 Kings 12:12-16; 1 Kings 14:21-24; Revelation 22:16; Luke 1:30-33; Psalm 78:4-7) Apply  1. David started well and finished well despite his failures. David was just an ordinary shepherd boy, the youngest of eight brothers, seven of whom each seemed more impressive than him. But he was chosen by God to become the great shepherd king who united warring tribes and led Israel to many conquests. He killed a giant who was intimidating a whole nation. He escaped death many times from countless internal and external enemies including Saul, Israel's first king who became obsessively jealous of him. David was not without his faults. He had times of great depression and shockingly he had killed the innocent husband of a beautiful woman that he had a secret affair with. Yet God loved Him and helped him and forgave him because He knew that David had a heart after God. He loved God, worshipped God, honoured God and depended on God. David's heart was fully devoted to God (1 Kings 15:5). All his life David stayed humble in his walk with God, even when the prophet Nathan publicly rebuked him. David was a first-generation revivalist of sorts, a rugged and down-to-earth pioneer who had learned to depend on God and trust Him in all circumstances. It is this kind of raw and real relationship with the Lord that will sustain you if you will pick up the baton to keep the fires of God burning in your generation.   2. Solomon started well and finished badly. David had wanted his descendants to follow in the ways of the Lord and the Lord had made some powerful promises to him for his generations (2 Samuel 7:11-16). When David died, Solomon, his son by Bathsheba, began so well when he ascended the throne. He was careful to walk in obedience to the Lord, he built a great temple in Jerusalem and consecrated himself to God with a powerful prayer. He pleased God by asking above all for wisdom, not wealth or long life or the death of his enemies. But as the years passed and the leadership of his father became more distant, Solomon proved not to have the same passionate heart for the Lord that David had. He became proud and unfaithful. He lost his discipline, his focus and his heart especially to lots of women. He became obsessed with sex, pleasure and an easy life (1 Kings 11:1-12). An incredible spiritual decline took place in Solomon's reign. He didn't just cool in his relationship with God but he opened the nation to the worship of many detestable false gods. Chemosh and Molek were gods associated with practices involving child sacrifice. And it all came about because Solomon let godly standards slip in his time because his own heart was not right with God. In the UK as in other nations, so much paganism, ungodly practices and social disintegration has come about in our generation because of the spiritual disintegration in the hearts of so many church leaders and their unwillingness to preach and model Christian standards. It's no use first attacking the sins of society, when repentance needs to start in the church. And in how many Christian homes have Christian parents failed to teach and train their children in the ways of the Lord and have just gone along with children as they have grown up and walked in rebellion to God? If we want to see the continuation of legacy in each succeeding generation then our own hearts must be fully committed to God. We must always take stock of how we are walking with God today not how well we may have done in times past. For as Solomon's story shows it is possible to have a wonderful heritage, a great beginning. But it's not enough to start well but end up badly because we have allowed the pleasures of this world to gain our hearts. We must continue faithfully in the ways of the Lord. We must daily seek to be cleansed by the blood of Jesus. We must pray with hunger for the Holy Spirit to help us. We must remain as humble and teachable disciples. We must unashamedly share the good news of Jesus. We must serve sacrificially and give generously to prioritise the building the house of the Lord, the church. Let's never become like Solomon who once was so wise but threw it all away. Don't let the passing years cool your fire for God.   3. Rehoboam started badly and finished worse. Rehoboam didn't inherit the best situation, but he still had the opportunity to be a wise and just king. But he preferred to listen to his young contemporaries who talked tough but had none of the wisdom of the older leaders who were trying to help him (1 Kings 12:12-16). And so began a great national division that lasted for centuries with ten of the 12 tribes following Jeroboam and calling their new nation Israel (the northern kingdom) and just two tribes remaining loyal to Rehoboam and calling their nation Judah (the southern kingdom). But even with his much-reduced Kingdom, Rehoboam totally lost his spiritual legacy (1 Kings 14:21-24). Terrible decline in just three generations had taken place because Solomon and Rehoboam did not value or continue their spiritual legacy. Fortunately, despite more bad kings, there were eight good kings in the Kingdom of Judah who were said to have pleased the Lord: Asa, Jehoshaphat, Joash, Amaziah, Azariah (Uzziah), Jotham, Hezekiah, and Josiah. Through all the contrasting reigns of good and evil however, the Lord remained faithful to His promise to David through Jesus, despite whole generations turning away from God (Revelation 22:16; Luke 1:30-33). The purposes and promises of God can never be stopped but we are called to play our part so that we keep the fires of God burning in each generation. To be faithful to God in our times means that: - We must love and serve the Lord whole heartedly. - We must put away all foreign gods and the idols of sex, money, pride, power and position - We must stay humble and teachable so that this can be reproduced in every generation. - We must spread the gospel of Jesus far and wide to generations who have not heard it (Psalm 78:4-7).   This is how we will develop the Christian legacy of this church and this nation. Today decide to give everything to taking on the baton to serving God in your generation.

Revelation 4:1-11 (ESV) The Throne in Heaven4 After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice, which I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” 2 At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne. 3 And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, and around the throne was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald. 4 Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and seated on the thrones were twenty-four elders, clothed in white garments, with golden crowns on their heads. 5 From the throne came flashes of lightning, and rumblings[a] and peals of thunder, and before the throne were burning seven torches of fire, which are the seven spirits of God, 6 and before the throne there was as it were a sea of glass, like crystal.And around the throne, on each side of the throne, are four living creatures, full of eyes in front and behind: 7 the first living creature like a lion, the second living creature like an ox, the third living creature with the face of a man, and the fourth living creature like an eagle in flight. 8 And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say,“Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!”9 And whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to him who is seated on the throne, who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before him who is seated on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying,11 “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power,for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.”Footnotesa.

263: Misconceptions About Heaven

Real Talk Christian Podcast

Show Notes:: Heaven is a place of bliss, where we will be reunited with our loved ones and worship the King forever. But has our vision of heaven been tainted by the thoughts of man? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Marc Hyde and Chris Fuller discuss some of these misconceptions about heaven and what the Bible gives us a some truth into what eternal life will look like.   //Resources Used In This Episode// 1. "Heaven is a Boring, Eternal Church Service” Many imagine heaven as an unending church service where people sing hymns forever. a) Heaven is a place of eternal worship (Revelation 7:9-10). b) Heaven is also described as a place of joy, fulfillment, and purpose. In Revelation, John speaks of the nations bringing their glory into the New Jerusalem, suggesting vibrant activity (Revelation 21:24-26). c) Isaiah speaks of people building and enjoying their work in the new creation (Isaiah 65:21-22). 2. “Heaven is Just a Spiritual State” Some believe heaven is purely a non-physical, spiritual existence. Scripture speaks of a "new heaven and new earth" (Revelation 21:1) where God's people will dwell in resurrected, physical bodies (1 Corinthians 15:42-44). This indicates a tangible, physical reality. 3. “We Become Angels in Heaven” The idea that humans transform into angels after death is popular in media and culture. Yet, we see in scripture that angels are distinct beings created by God (Psalm 8:5; Hebrews 1:14). Humans retain their identity but are glorified and perfected in heaven (Philippians 3:21). 4. “Heaven is for Everyone, Regardless of Belief” A common misconception is that everyone automatically goes to heaven. While God desires all to be saved (2 Peter 3:9), entrance into heaven requires faith in Jesus Christ. “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6). 5. “Heaven Will Be an Escape from Responsibility” Some view heaven as a place of eternal leisure, with no responsibilities or meaningful work. The Bible states that, in the new creation, believers will serve God (Revelation 22:3). This service will be fulfilling and joyful, without the toil and frustration of earthly labor (Genesis 3:17-19 vs. Isaiah 65:21-23). 6. “Heaven is Our Final Destination” It's often assumed that heaven is where Christians spend eternity after death. Heaven is an intermediate state where believers are with Christ after death (Philippians 1:23). However, the ultimate destination is the new heaven and new earth, where heaven and earth are united and God dwells with His people (Revelation 21:3). 7. “We'll All Look the Same” The idea that we'll lose our individuality in heaven is a common fear. Revelation 7:9 describes a great multitude from every nation, tribe, and language worshiping God together. This implies that diversity and individuality are preserved in heaven. 8. “Heaven is a Second Chance After Death” Some believe that people will get a second chance to choose Christ after they die. The Bible teaches that judgment comes after death (Hebrews 9:27). Decisions about faith in Jesus must be made in this life. 9. "Our Loved Ones Become Guardians Watching Over Us” Many believe deceased loved ones watch over us from heaven. While believers in heaven are aware of God's plan unfolding (according to Hebrews 12:1), there's no evidence they actively intervene in earthly affairs. Only God has omniscience and control over our lives. 10. "We'll Forget Everything About Earth” Some think that all memories of earthly life will be erased in heaven. Scripture suggests continuity between this life and the next. For example, Jesus retained His scars after His resurrection (John 20:27), and believers will likely remember God's faithfulness in their earthly lives. However, we can speculate that painful memories will no longer bring sorrow (Revelation 21:4).   //Other Episode You Might Enjoy// https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/183-what-will-the-new-heaven-and-earth-look-like/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/049-new-heaven-new-earth-new-jerusalem-and-why-it-even-matters/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/181-where-did-jesus-go-when-he-died/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/168-am-i-spiritually-ready-a-look-at-matthew-251-13/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/131-what-happens-to-those-who-dont-hear-the-gospel/   // Helpful Links // https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcast The Christian Standard Bible: https://bit.ly/3rulKqi Lifeway Christian Resources: https://bit.ly/3qka4Wv Got Questions?: https://bit.ly/3vSMJfq Dwell Bible App: https://bit.ly/3zUYq8E Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://bit.ly/3h19isZ RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com Twin Valley Coffee:  https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.com Revive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com) Toccoa Coffee:https://toccoacoffee.com RTC Merch-https://rtcpodcast.redbubble.com Let Them Live: https://letthemlive.org

Let us fix our hearts and minds on the grandeur of God's righteous judgment, a truth proclaimed from the pages of His eternal Word. As we delve into the mystery of divine justice upon Babylon, that city of ancient pride and rebellion, we are drawn to the sovereign orchestration of God in the affairs of nations, “For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will” (Revelation 17:17). Babylon—first among the Gentile kingdoms to subdue God's chosen people, Israel—was not merely a tool of conquest but an instrument of divine discipline. Thus saith the Lord through His prophet, "And I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith the Lord" (Jeremiah 51:24). How sobering is this truth: God, who raises up rulers and nations, also casts them down for their pride and iniquity. Babylon, far more than an ancient empire, stands as a symbol of every false system of worship and rebellion against the Most High. From her idolatrous foundations to her end-time personification as the harlot of Revelation 17, she epitomizes humanity's defiance against the holy God. As we contemplate this, let us marvel at the divine paradox: God's sovereign use of evil to accomplish His purposes while rendering just recompense to wickedness. Babylon's rise and fall unveil both the holiness of God and the rebellious heart of man. Yet, in these judgments, we see the gospel's shadow—pointing to the ultimate victory of Christ, the Lamb who was slain, who will one day cause every knee to bow and every tongue to confess His Lordship.

Once again you and I find ourselves perched on the eve of the annual Christmas day celebration. And as such, we do well to remember our Lord's words concerning the reason He condescended to cloak Himself in human flesh. “The Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost” (Luke 19:10). This Christmas Eve may you and I not trivialize the Christmas celebration but rather be transformed by the greatest cleavage in human history. That of a Second Adam who clothed Himself in fallen humanity and in doing so returned fallen humanity to the life of Eden. “To him who overcomes,” said Jesus, “I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God” (Revelation 2:7).

Leyla Ozgur Alhassen's book Qur'anic Stories: God, Revelation and the Audience (Edinburgh University Press, 2021) provides excellent analyses of several Qur'anic surahs, or chapters, to explore how Qur'anic stories function as narratives – but not just any kind of narratives: narratives with a theological purpose behind them.  The specific stories she looks at include those of Maryam, Yusuf, and Musa primarily. Alhassen analyzes the literary themes present in these different chapters, such as the themes of control, knowledge, semantic echoes, and consonance, or themes of family, judgment, evidence, and secrets – whether it's secrets that the text is withholding from the reader or secrets that characters are keeping from each other. One of the most important contributions that the book makes is to offer one possible and convincing explanation for why stories of the same characters are told in different ways in different chapters of the Qur'an. For example, God is woven into some stories as both a character and an omniscient narrator depending on the larger theme of the surah and the placing of the story; in some instances, God as the omniscient narrator shows the words of a beloved, righteous character as true, thus making a theological statement. Alhassen argues that in such renderings of a story, where it becomes unclear whether a certain quote is God's or a character's, the point the text is making there is that God merges His (or Her) words with characters as a reward from God. Other theological statements that the stories seem to be making are that they reveal some insight into divine intent. In this interview, we discuss the origins of the book, how the Qur'an establishes structure and how Qur'anic stories serve as narratives, the main points of each chapter and story, and whether, and how, if at all, it matters that the Qur'an doesn't give us identical quotes from characters in the various renditions of their stories in order to make an important stylistic choice.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Leyla Ozgur Alhassen's book Qur'anic Stories: God, Revelation and the Audience (Edinburgh University Press, 2021) provides excellent analyses of several Qur'anic surahs, or chapters, to explore how Qur'anic stories function as narratives – but not just any kind of narratives: narratives with a theological purpose behind them.  The specific stories she looks at include those of Maryam, Yusuf, and Musa primarily. Alhassen analyzes the literary themes present in these different chapters, such as the themes of control, knowledge, semantic echoes, and consonance, or themes of family, judgment, evidence, and secrets – whether it's secrets that the text is withholding from the reader or secrets that characters are keeping from each other. One of the most important contributions that the book makes is to offer one possible and convincing explanation for why stories of the same characters are told in different ways in different chapters of the Qur'an. For example, God is woven into some stories as both a character and an omniscient narrator depending on the larger theme of the surah and the placing of the story; in some instances, God as the omniscient narrator shows the words of a beloved, righteous character as true, thus making a theological statement. Alhassen argues that in such renderings of a story, where it becomes unclear whether a certain quote is God's or a character's, the point the text is making there is that God merges His (or Her) words with characters as a reward from God. Other theological statements that the stories seem to be making are that they reveal some insight into divine intent. In this interview, we discuss the origins of the book, how the Qur'an establishes structure and how Qur'anic stories serve as narratives, the main points of each chapter and story, and whether, and how, if at all, it matters that the Qur'an doesn't give us identical quotes from characters in the various renditions of their stories in order to make an important stylistic choice.    Learn more about your ad choices.

“Maker of the sun, He is made under the sun. . . .In [the Father] He remains,From [His mother] He goes forth.Creator of heaven and earth,He was born on earth under heaven.Unspeakably wise, He is wisely speechless;filling the world, He lies in a manger;Ruler of the stars, He nurses at His mother's bosom.He is both great in the nature of God,and small in the form of a servant,but so that His greatness is not diminished by His smallness,nor His smallness overwhelmed by His greatness.” —Augustine of Hippo Revelation 7:9-17

Apart from Jesus Christ, no person in history has made as deep or lasting impression on the world as Moses, the “bond-servant of God” (Revelation 15:3). The secret of his influence is in his commitment to walk with the invisible God in everyday life. His example is desperately relevant for a world lost in the visible realm only.

Send us a textEver pondered what it truly means to navigate life with unwavering faith? Join us for an inspiring sermon with Pastor Bowers and Dr. Leonzo Lynch as we mark the anniversary of Chosen City and explore the transformative power of faith through the lens of the book of Revelation. This isn't about foreseeing the end times; it's about living rightly in anticipation of them. Like the songs and hymns that offered solace to enslaved individuals, faith is a potent force of resilience and hope. Dr. Lynch guides us to dream big and lean into God's continuing work, inviting us to move beyond fear and hesitation to embrace the doors God opens for us.This sermon is a deep dive into trusting God's perfect timing, where faith acts as our guide through life's uncertainties. We learn how God's proven track record offers reassurance in a world often marked by chaos and mistrust. As we reflect on the importance of community, unity, and spiritual giving, the message is clear: standing firm on God's promises is our steadfast foundation. Drawing strength from hymns and shared stories, we are encouraged to embrace a collective mindset, support one another, and trust in the divine plan that God has laid out for us. Celebrate with us as we find courage in faith and gratitude in God's unwavering guidance. Welcome To Chosen City Church!

How do we fight the spiritual battles we face? Are we really prepared? Join us this Sunday as Kent brings the Word on spiritual warfare and fighting for what matters most. Let's gear up together and stand firm! EASY TO GIVE at Harmony, text any amount to (859) 459-0316 to get started (or give online @ my.harmonychurch.cc/give ). Get the fill in the blank bulletins my.harmonychurch.cc/bulletins. OPENING ILLUSTRATION: So, I was working on a sermon about what we will look like after we die, and maybe someday I'll do that, but to be honest, I decided at the last minute to preach a very different sermon.  I think it will likely be shorter, but I think it's a vital sermon to preach.   I want to enter it by telling you a story… Years ago, when I was in college, I mean, like YEARS ago… I had a couple of friends I had known for a long time, I thought for sure they were going to get married, they were madly in love and had been as long as I can remember.  Out of the blue, one of my friends took this wide swing from her usual way of life. She started hanging with this other group of guys and was partying with them.  Her whole demeanor changed.  One night, I was with my friend and he said, “I feel like I need to go rescue her”.  We knew she was with these other guys in a hotel and they were partying.  I looked at him and said, “let's go”.  We went to the hotel, we walked in to the room, grabbed her, and literally walked out.  These guys - who we knew got in our face and were yelling at us.  I remember asking one of the guys what happened to him, he used to love Jesus.  I kept telling myself, “if they punch you, don't punch them back”.  For some reason, the guys left us and went back to the hotel room.  This memory is so vivid, we were sitting on the parking lot talking, my buddy, his girlfriend who was also a close friend and myself.  He kept trying to convince her that she had gone of the deepens.  We both were trying to reason with her.  And I just felt in that moment that what we were coming against was not of this world.   I told them I was going to pray and I began to pray against satan and against evil spirits. I prayed against demons and prayed that God would take the curtain off her eyes and help her see straight. I can remember my neck tingling as I prayed and I'll never forget what happened next. When I said amen, she lifted her head and was crying and she said she felt like a curtain had fallen from her eyes and she didn't know why she had been doing what she was doing, but she was done… It was the wildest experience of my life… Look, if I could just be honest with you as your pastor. Our church has been under what I would call a serious spiritual attack. Our staff has had major physical issues and financial issues.  We've watched as our church has had marriages being ravaged, we've had people struggling in ways they have never struggled before. And I believe it is all part of a Satanic attack on our church. Listen, I need to say this plainly to you. There is an enemy and He comes to steal kill and destroy (John 10:10) b And the enemy is not your spouse, coworker, the person at church that made you mad, or any other person.   b The enemy is Satan and He is making war on those of love God (Revelation 12:17) I want to read to you what Paul says in Ephesians 6: Ephesians 6:10-18 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. We were trying to reason with my friend, but no amount of reason was going to overcome the delusion she was under because our battle wasn't against flesh and blood, it was against authorities and evil powers in this dark world. I've never had to convince people who come out of the drug scene or other darker forms of sin that evil exists - they've seen it. I had a friend who grew up in a family of real live witches - wicken - how she grew up she experienced true evil - some of her stories about what she watched and observed would turn your stomach.. Look, I'm not saying you don't have issues in your family b I'm not saying you don't have trauma that needs to be dealt with b What I am saying is that there is a spiritual component to what you are dealing with that can only be overcome through battling the darkness with the weapons of righteousness. Listen to what Paul says: 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people. Paul tells the Ephesians to put on their armor and take up the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God b Your weapon of righteousness is the authority of the Spirit and His word b Here are just a few of the weapons found in the word: -Deep true forgiveness of others (Eph. 4:32, Mt 6:14-15) -Praying with authority to cast out spirits (Mk 3:15, Mk 9:14-29) -Wholehearted Repentance (Acts 2:38) -Fasting (Acts 13:1-3) -Truth (See Jesus and the temptation in the desert Mt 4) You still have to deal with reality. Personally, I look for if there are any other reasons for an issue first. Did we make a bad decision, are there mental or physical reasons or the issue, but if not. I fight and fight hard spiritually. This is part of being a fully activated disciple is to learn to fight the spiritual battle. Your kids need you to fight this battle Your spouse needs you to fight this battle You need you to fight this battle CLOSING ILLUSTRATION: The first fight I ever had was with a kid who was half my size but who had grown up in an abusive family. I didn't know anything about giving someone a whooping and it's all he knew. He just beat the snot out of me while I pushed him around - honestly, he probably needed the win… But when I was in college I took a kickboxing class and learned a little about fighting.  I can remember this friend who asked me if I wanted to fight and he and I went at it - it was friendly boxing, but we really went at it.   Here's what I learned - The person who is trained and ready for a fight has the ability to stand in a way the untrained and unready cannot… Church, I'm calling you to fight I need you to fight I feel like right now there are a handful fighting Satan doesn't fight fair and it's time we stand in the authority we've been given. I'm going to commit to fasting for your marriages this week and relationships -if you have a need for someone to fight for you, come down here and have one of our prayer warriors fight for you… I hope you'll join me in fasting too

Caleb Drahosh All theology is meant to lead to doxology. Knowing God is the grounds of our boasting as Christians. God is the Creator of everyone and everything and He freely makes Himself known in and to His creation. Humanity bears the image of God and is invited into relationship with God who reveals Himself through His Word.

After looking at the historical and literary context in which the Book of Revelation was written, Cale begins to dig into the text itself, looking at Revelation 1:1-7. Right away, we see titles and images of Jesus that hearken back to the Old Testament, and we catch a glimpse of what is to come. We also see the importance of the priesthood that all baptized Catholics are called to take part in in the kingdom of God.
