Reformation Hope Church Brookfield WI Dr Wayne Sedlak

In this sermon, the Wonderous, or miraculous nature of the working of the Lord in the Earth, known as Pala in scripture, is discussed as pertains to the Holy Spirit governing the world. For example, The Cross of Christ represents Christ Justified, the truth will not disappear, and God's people will not disappear. In short the Cross tramples the kingdom of Satan.

Proverbs 28 The Wicked Flee when no man pursues; the righteous are as bold as a lion: When they perish, the righteous increase.

The Greeks had the wisdom of the world. Unfortunately their "wisdom" ultimately resounded to witty sayings, which don't have general applicability. We need the practical Wisdom, which comes from the fear of God. This type of Wisdom will be able to cut through the curse and confront evil.

Interesting Notes in the Sermon:

Davey Crockett and the Blind, his heart was that of a kind man, with a warriors heart.

George Washington, an Anglican who looked at the Sister America that was running with the Presbyterian Parson and wanting what they had for Governance of men....so much so he transformed his army to have Chaplains, and leadership that was extraordinary and valiant. He wanted the system that worked, and cultivated that leadership in his army...

The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom...says the proverb. The fear of the Lord is clean, says the Psalmist. All these Fears amount to something that God wants us to have....so that we cherish His Body, namely the Church and its calling to Disciple ALL nations.

The fool by many is thought to be an indolent jester, however, the Bible has a much more sinister approach to the fool. The fool is a dark genius who uses life to disconnect. The fool is to be judged on Sunday, so that his tendancies to bring reckage on life are haulted. See how the purpose of Church is to expose the fool, the fool in all of us.....

Isaac Newton is well known as the physicist who shook the world. The scientist who essentially invented calculus was impressed by singularly unimpressive he was, and how magnificently the universe was created, and that he had but the minor opportunity to "pick up a pebble" on a vast seashore of pebbles and gaze and explain it. He was a Christian man fraught with a temper....that ruined his calling. A calling that started in the house of God....

On the Sabbath day a deceleration to the nations is made by all Christians as they observe the Sabbath. The import of the Sabbath and the meaning of Christ's Kingdom is manifested by the Judgment that Starts in the House of the Lord.

Rabsheka was sent to intimidate the Hezekiah's people into surrendering and handing over Jerusalem to the Assyrian. Hezekiah consulted Isaiah and he was rest assured that not one arrow would be fired into Jerusalem. The Judgment of Sennacherib's army and final doom started in the house of God....

George Washington's famous words concerning Church and the importance of Sunday Worship: "In Church I learned to stay the course..."

Eldership in the land is vital for the survival of the land. Upright Eldership can only be taught in the Church. The Stay and the Staff of Isaiah is critical for a land to avoid judgment from the Lord.
