Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 10
Description: And then John looks up and sees an image that makes Colossus of Rhodes look small and the gods of the Roman pantheon look… well, weak.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues our study in the book of Revelation in which witness right along with John… 
And yet, as breathtaking as this image is… this amazing being is just simply one of God’s servants do His bidding.
But through this vision, we capture a glimpse of God’s amazing sovereignty over a seemingly chaotic world which will one day come to an end — when the mysteries of the Lord Almighty will be revealed in the renewed world that awaits.

Key Text: Revelation 9:12-21
Description: Sometimes Judgment doesn’t come as we would expect.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation and asks would we still consider it “Judgement” if God brought forth an event so dramatic that it rivaled Sodom and Gomorrah, but instead of fire and brimstone, there was deception and idolatry?

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 9:1-12
Description:
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?

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 8:7-13
Description:
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.

Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 7:9-17
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.

Preacher: Josh Peglow, guest preacher
Key Text: Luke 23:33-43
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.
Which thief are you?

Notes: What the Penitent Thief knew, that we too need to know…
- knew Jesus is God
- knew his own GUILT before God
- knew Christ was NOT guilty
- knew Christ has the POWER to SAVE
- knew Christ is KING

Preacher: David Teves, guest preacher
Key Text: Ephesians 2:8-10
Description:
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?

Notes:
GOOD WORKS
- What are they?
- Are they the same for everyone?
- Who needs them?
- Why do them?

Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 6:9-17
Description: Last week on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we saw the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who were sent out at the bidding of Christ as He opened the first four of the seven seals.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we come to seal number five and six as Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation.
With the opening of the fifth seal we witness the martyrs that have come out of this present evil age, crying for God to judge the evil doers and avenge them.
The sixth seal is God’s response… for with the opening of this seal, we get a glimpse of the final day of wrath, of de-creation, and the absolute terror the enemies of God will experience.

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 6:1-8
Description:
I watched while the Lamb ripped off the first of the seven seals. I heard one of the Animals roar, “Come out!” I looked—I saw a white horse. Its rider carried a bow and was given a victory garland. He rode off victorious, conquering right and left.
When the Lamb ripped off the second seal, I heard the second Animal cry, “Come out!” Another horse appeared, this one red. Its rider was off to take peace from the earth, setting people at each other’s throats, killing one another. He was given a huge sword.
When he ripped off the third seal, I heard the third Animal cry, “Come out!” I looked. A black horse this time. Its rider carried a set of scales in his hand. I heard a message (it seemed to issue from the Four Animals): “A quart of wheat for a day’s wages, or three quarts of barley, but all the oil and wine you want.”
When he ripped off the fourth seal, I heard the fourth Animal cry, “Come out!” I looked. A colorless horse, sickly pale. Its rider was Death, and Hell was close on its heels. They were given power to destroy a fourth of the earth by war, famine, disease, and wild beasts.
(Rev 6:1-8, The MSG)
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation in which we are introduced to the four horsemen as we witness the opening of the scroll by the One who is worthy, King Jesus.
While the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are sure to capture our imagination, and the imaginations of pop culture, few even know where these images come from — and even fewer, what they mean. But in the midst of this confusion, Christ, the triumphant Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Lamb that was Slain, releases these horsemen to do His bidding as He brings judgment, warning, and trial upon the earth.

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 5
Description: “I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, ‘Who is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?’ And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the book or to look into it. Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look into it….”
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in book of Revelation and shows us that all of creation has waited to have the scroll of heaven open: the book containing judgment and salvation; the book that will set in motion the providential plans of God to bring every wrong and evil to an end and to reward God’s people with everlasting life.
But who is worthy to open the book? There is one!… The Lion of the Tribe of Judah. The Lamb who was slain. Christ is worthy!
“To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”

Preacher: Keith Barker, elder
Key Text: Psalm 46:1-10
Description:
Average Guy: I’m trying to listen to God, but I just don’t hear Him.
Scandia Host: Shhhh…. In our busy lives it’s often a challenge to slow down enough to actually come to a full stop and listen. For what we’ll find is that our desire and ability to listen to God is in direct correlation with who we consider Him to be.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Elder Keith Barker shares that too often we as Christians neglect the wonderful access and fellowship opportunities we have with our and Lord and Savior, because we fail to follow the clear and simple instructions found in Psalm 46:10:
“Be still and know that I am God.”
