Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 10/05/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Zechariah

Key Text: Zechariah 14:12-21

Description:

What if the final word in redemptive history isn’t destruction — but holiness?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao brings our study in the book of Zechariah to a close in which the prophet reveals graphic images of judgment and breathtaking glimpses of glory.

The enemies of God are defeated,
the nations are gathered to worship,
and — from the bells on the horses to the pots in the kitchens —
the Church is made holy.

This is not a return to Old Covenant shadows… it’s the fulfillment of God’s eternal plan:

To make for Himself a holy people in a holy city, where every square inch is marked “Holy to the Lord.”

Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 07/22/2018

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Revelation

Selected Texts: Matt 28:20; Romans 12:2; Ephesians 2:2; 1 Tim 6:17; Titus 2:12

Description: How you interpret the Bible matters. It’s called hermeneutics.

In the New Testament, Jesus and the disciples give us what’s been called the “Two-age Model.”

Today on the Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues laying the foundation for the introduction to our new study in the book of Revelation and underscores that if we are to have a correct starting place with this study, we must have correct hermeneutics.

Correctly, understanding the Two-Age Model will be like laying out rooms for us in a house… rooms in which as we can later place furniture – or details – we pick up along the way. Because, as we all know, if we start with the furniture, and later receive the layout, we may find – much to our frustration – that it simply does not fit.

It may be the most controversial book in the church today…

…and for most, the most confusing (not to mention, most intimidating): the book of Revelation.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao embarks upon a new study in this last book of the Bible and shares with us that despite today’s tension surrounding the text, for most of church history, the book of Revelation was a book of encouragement — encouragement to a suffering church trying to remain faithful in a world that opposed both her and her Lord.
