Sunday Sermon-February 6, 2022- Revelation 11- “Stand Firm Church, Your King Is Coming”

Revelation 11

Stand Firm Church, Your King Is Coming

Revelation 11

Sunday, February 6, 2022

Dr. Kelly B. Burton

In the final three and a half years of the Tribulation Period Christian persecution will worsen. Because some will be preaching the Gospel during the Tribulation, some will come to faith in Jesus. These Tribulation Saints will face opposition  unlike any other. The Church today should see these people as martyrs and models of Christ under pressure. God will radically reverse the future of the  underdog and then our King will come!

Sermon in a Sentence: Our enemy bullies us and tempts us to bail out on God; stand firm church, your King is coming.

I invite you to follow these four movements in Revelation 11:

11:1-2 A Head Count of the Accepted and the Rejected

To measure means to mark out.

11:3-10 A Party for the Pagans

The two witnesses represent the Church

 (Smyrna and Philadelphia in Revelation 2&3).

11:11-12 A Radical Reversal for the Underdogs

Resurrection and Rapture!

11:15-19 A Cosmic Glimpse of God’s Glory

Stand Back Church, Your King is Coming!
