The skies over the Euphrates swarm with airborne military weaponry: helicopters, jets, and drones crowd the air. And like metal locusts equipped with rapid fire guns in their mouths and bombs in their tails, they have orders to incessantly attack and destroy.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we turn our attention to chapter 9 — a chapter that has has certainly captured the imagination of Bible interpreters from around the world — with interpretations as varied as an invasion of Apache helicopters to an army of genetically modified locusts who prey on flesh instead of vegetation.
But, are these interpretations in line with what John is trying to communicate? … or have we moved away from the purpose of the book?
And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared…to sound them. The first [angel] sounded, and there came hail and fire…. The second…and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea…. The third…a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch…. [And with] the fourth…the sun…the moon and…the stars were struck, so that a third of them…darkened….
Rev 8:6-12
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we see the first four Trumpet Judgements unfold.
And what we’ll find is that like the first four Seal Judgments, the first four Trumpet Judgments come as a set — a set that, astute readers will recognize, comes out of Israel’s great period of redemptive history…the Exodus.
Description: The anticipation mounts as we reach the seventh, and final, seal to be opened: seven angels, standing before God, given trumpets.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we read about the opening of the seventh seal, but – unlike the others – instead of an event immediately following, what we experience… is silence.
Description: We’ve already been down the road of how the 144,000 Sealed Believers in chapter seven are a topic of controversy and confusion.
We’ve tackled the topic of who they are, and what the seal on the forehead means.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation (and chapter 7) to help us make sense of how this chapter fits in with everything else in the book we’ve learned so far. For we now know the numbered people are seen as an innumerable multitude, and the fullness of God’s promises are seen to His glory.
Description: One on the right and one on the left. And in the middle… Jesus.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, Josh Peglow, fills in at the pulpit to deliver a message about the two thieves that hung next to Jesus on the day of His crucifixion — two criminals nailed to their own crosses on either side, one hurling insults, the other ultimately calling Him Lord.
If you think about it, the scene — in many ways — depicts that of the world: you’re either with Him or against Him.
Average Guy:If you want to get to heaven, you’d better have a good looking résumé, because the things you do while your here matter.
Average Gal:Total nonsense! Everyone knows that once you get a “Grace Card” from Jesus, works are meaningless.
[argument between the two]
Scandia Host: There is much confusion in the church today as to what good works are and why we need (or need not) do them.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, brother in Christ, David Teves, fills in at the pulpit to preach on a topic that greatly separates Christianity from other religions: GOOD WORKS.
Some say you need to do good works in order to get into heaven; others, we’re saved by grace and that good works don’t matter. …But what does the Bible say?
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we come to the 144,00 sealed believers in chapter 7 — a topic of much confusion and much controversy.
Average Guy: Yah! Who are these people? And what is the seal on the forehead thing, anyway? And how does this fit with everything else we’re learning in the book???
Scandia Host: See what a mean? You better listen up.
