1. The picture of Armageddon is a picture of tribulation with the people of God and the forces of darkness. “Tribulation is never lost by Gospel bearers, because all is ordained for our good. Amen.”
2. The
common essence of the Christian life is tribulation touching battle
with sin, but the seven year period represents the perfected victory of
God’s people touching dying in the Lord or living in the Lord. I am not saying it does not refer to the time of 70 AD, but it also in a applicational sense it refers to all Christians who experience tribulation due to holy living. “Life is to enjoy and glorify Him forevermore in the storm. Amen.”
3. The spiritual battle represents the conflict Christians’ face with the world, the flesh and the devil. “The Lord never lost a battle. Amen.”
4. There
does not have to be an Armageddon with military warfare but sin gets worse and worse and must be restrained by God's Spirit, but the
apostle Peter speaks of interpreting the Holy Pages unto destruction. That
is, such interpretation is unwarranted, unscriptural and unlawful
teaching that awaits not the glory of Christ in the optimism of the
power of the Holy Spirit, but a cessation of Gospel prosperity that is
uncalled for. The meaning of Scripture does not refer to a necular exchange, but it could refer to an application to prevent such an exchange. “Repent of this wickedness before God and renew your practical obedience. Amen.”
5. God
never sends us trail that we cannot endure; however, it is the
unendurable endurable, but I do not believe He wants us to destroy the
world through necular mushrooms and various warfare to satisfy sinful
excitement and a wrong viewpoint of hating your neighbor. “The
greatest trails of man was Noah’s flood and the flood of wrongdoing at
the Cross, but we are exceedingly overwhelming conquerors in Christ
Jesus. Amen.”
6. The
bounding of Satan happens every time the Gospel is accepted in the Glad
Tidings celebration of the Spirit and the Word for each sinner, because
of the superlative power of the divine choice of the Father through His
Son in unified redemptive merit by the approbation of the Spirit. “Satan is bound for every believer for a spiritual 1, 000 years. Amen.”
7. Every sinner is bound when the Gospel is rejected, but every sinner is loosed when the Gospel is accepted. However, who makes men to differ? It is the monergistic, divine and supernatural quickening of the Spirit and the Word. “We are all like Elijah that thought he was alone, but there was spiritual 7, 000 that never bowed to Baal. Amen.” Every person who believes there will be a falling away at the end is another Elijah, but there will be many left!
8. The
Gospel never fails because Jesus never fails; that is, we are called to
love the holy grace and supernatural peace of the Gospel that touches
the whole world. “Will the Lord find faith on the earth when He comes? Yes!” The question comes down to God's freedom, so it means, is God free? If God is free, there will be faith when He comes!
9. We
are called to do what is right before God and man, but why are past
generations known for honorable sacrifice that brought success to us? That
is, honorable sacrifice should not lead us to war again in that kind of
success, but a success that leads us away from war to peace of the
Gospel. “That is why Stonewall Jackson was conflicted in battle, because he offered the Gospel to his brothers whom he fought in battle. Why
should we fight brother against brother when it is true of all of us
that He made us in His image touching creaturely dignity? Amen. I praise His name. Amen.”
10. The
cessation of war can only come through the Gospel grace-abundance and
peace-overflowingness of Christ alone in how we are made right before
God; that is, in the picture of final glorification the perfected
permeation of Christ alone becomes are essence but acts, works and words
never add to that perfected unified work alone in this life; however,
the evil of the love of money can be turned on its head in that it can
cause a cessation of war and furtherance of freedom and the Christian
religion by "compensation" for America and all nations because of the
abomination of September 11, 2001. “The Gospel is the essence of grace and peace, because it is the essence of Christ! Let evil be brought to destruction, but the optimism of the Gospel alone avail. Amen.”
