Pentecost (627)
  1. Jesus is not asking us to figure out when He will return. Jesus is asking us to live everyday in the certainty that He will return.
  2. On this last week in the church year, we are to awaken our congregations to Christ's return and fix their drowsy eyes on the salvation promised by our glorious, crucified Lord. 
  3. It is the Messiah’s mighty arm which will vindicate God’s people. We place our hope, trust, and full confidence in His nail scared but resurrected arms, feet, and side.
  4. Life will not be easy. Conflicts will occur. But God remains in power, and He rules over all.
  5. The imagery of a worship service in scripture is not one of consumers being entertained, but of God’s people being gathered around the Throne of the Lamb, joining the heavenly chorus of saints and angels to sing God’s praise and receive Christ’s benefits.
  6. The righteous dead in Christ have already passed through the judgment at Calvary where our sentence was pardoned on account of Christ’s shed blood and resurrection.
