Zechariah prophesies prosperity for Israel. He speaks of the triumphal entry and the Jerusalem reign all in one breath. And, he portrays a false shepherd, the fulfillment of whom is Judas and perhaps also antichrist.

Ministry of the Word: The antichrist is already at work, but we can overcome him! 1. We overcome the antichrist with the trust of the Son of God 2. We overcome the antichrist through His anointing

Why wait for 144,000? Revelation 7:1–17 KJV During the darkest period this world will ever experience, God will demonstrate that neither the Antichrist, persecution, judgment, nor death can stop the Gospel of Jesus Christ.Revelation 7 takes us into one of the darkest periods of human history, yet it reveals an extraordinary display of God's mercy. Before further judgment falls, God seals 144,000 servants from the tribes of Israel. Then John sees a great multitude that no man can number, from every nation, kindred, people, and tongue, standing before the throne and praising the Lamb.This message examines God's sealed servants, the tremendous harvest of souls associated with the Great Tribulation, and the eternal victory awaiting those whose robes are made white in the blood of the Lamb.Revelation 7 also confronts the Church with an urgent question:If God will have witnesses during the Tribulation, what are we doing with our opportunity to witness today?The time to preach Christ is now.The time to reach our families is now.The time to win the lost is now.Until the trumpet sounds, the Church must faithfully proclaim that Jesus Christ still saves.The Church will be gone—but God will not be silent.

The sermon explores the critical Christian duty of spiritual discernment, urging believers to test all teachings against the standard of Scripture. Drawing primarily from 1 John 4, it outlines three principles for evaluating teachers: refusing to believe every spirit, testing claims by their confession of Jesus Christ's incarnation, and recognizing the opposition of the antichrist spirit. The preacher emphasizes that true faith requires examining its object before placing confidence in it, warning against false teachers who distort the gospel or diminish the person and work of Christ. Ultimately, the message calls for a steadfast commitment to the biblical truth of Jesus alone as the sole foundation for salvation and spiritual assurance. In light of the danger of false teaching and the church's experience with false teachers, John commands believers to exercise discernment by testing everything according to the standard of Scripture, and the truths of Jesus Christ.

Study of the book of Daniel

Daniel Chapter 8 overview. Antiochus IV Epiphanies was in Jerusalem 167-164 B.C. Antiochus is a "near" fulfillment of the little horn.

What is represented by the little horn in Daniel's vision? This sermon explores the prophecy of the fourth beast and the little horn in Daniel chapter seven, identifying these figures as manifestations of real demonic evil and the Antichrist. The preacher emphasizes that while the specific historical identity of this power remains debated, the text confirms that evil is a tangible force opposing God's people. By connecting this passage to New Testament teachings, the message highlights the ultimate defeat of all satanic powers through Jesus Christ's sacrificial death and resurrection. The central theme urges believers to recognize the reality of spiritual warfare without fear, finding confidence in Christ's established kingdom. Ultimately, the sermon calls for faithful living and active resistance against evil, anchored in the assurance of eternal victory.

The sermon urges believers to slow down and study the Bible deeply to uncover spiritual treasures rather than merely checking off reading plans. It interprets Jeremiah 30 as a prophetic timeline that shifts from Israel's historical captivity to future eschatological events, specifically the tribulation period. The preacher distinguishes between the Church, which will be raptured before this time of Jacob's trouble, and Israel, who will endure it but ultimately be restored. Key theological points include the breaking of the Antichrist's yoke by God and the eventual belief of Israel in Jesus Christ after the tribulation. The central message emphasizes that God's written word is reliable, unchangeable, and essential for understanding His sovereign plan for history and salvation.
