Today we will look at a group of people who are under the altar of God in heaven who have been martyred for their faith during the Great Tribulation. These are the people we call the Tribulation Saints. Most of them, more than likely, considered themselves to be Christians before the Tribulation began, but their faith was not real. But as the seals are broken, and the trumpets of judgment are blown, and the bowls of God’s wrath are poured […]

For I have become like a wineskin in smoke, Yet I do not forget Your statutes. Psalm 119:83

May Jesus be your joy, your hope and your song. And may this Christmas and each day of the new year be directed by His guiding hand of love! Have a wonderful Christmas. From the staff and trustees of Calvary Chapel of Lafayette.

During the Barak Obama’s presidency many people thought of him as some sort of messiah. Oprah Winfrey often referred to him as “The One.” Louis Farrakhan said on several occasions that “when he speaks it is the messiah himself speaking.” Newsweek ran a cover story after Obama’s election to a second term with a picture of him and the title, “The Second Coming!” I’m not going to rate Obama’s presidency, but one thing I am sure of is that he […]

Jesus said “In this world you will have many tribulations,” but these daily trials of life He was referring to are nothing compared to the ones living on this earth will have to face during the Great Tribulation. Today we will begin our study of this biblical event, and in the coming weeks as we move through our study of the tribulation period, we will witness horrors on earth that are beyond imagination. And so the question that has to […]

In today’s text in Revelation, we will see the whole creation attributing “blessing and honor and glory and power” to the Lamb on the throne. In eternity, even the fish in the sea will give Him praise. That is certainly not the case now. As Paul tells us in Romans 8, for now the whole creation is subject to decay and corruption so that even the creatures of the sea groan for the day when this universe will be fully […]

John has seen some strange things so far in his vision of heaven recorded for us in Revelation chapters four and five. He has seen a sea of crystal glass; four living creatures full of eyes front and back; twenty four elders with golden crowns sitting around the throne of God; and going forth from the throne he has seen lightnings and heard thunderings. But in today’s text he will see maybe the strangest sight of all. He will see […]

As we finish up chapter four of Revelation today, we will see the 24 elders who represent the church casting crowns before the feet of the One on the throne. And from the evidence John gives us in this text, we must conclude that this one on the throne is none other than Jesus Christ Himself. The casting of their crowns is an act of submission by the elders to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords- an example […]

As we come back to chapter four of Revelation, the apostle John is going to describe for us just what he saw as he entered the very throne room of God. Obviously, he didn’t have a cell phone or a camera with him as he went through heaven’s door, but still the verbal descriptions he gives us of what he saw serve as some very enlightening snapshots of heaven. Today we will get a snapshot of the throne of God […]

Today in chapter four we begin our study of John’s vision of heaven that he records in chapter four and chapter five of Revelation. H.A. Ironside had this to say about the significance of this vision for the believer: “We are carried away far above the shifting scenes of this poor world and permitted to gaze with awestruck eyes upon a scene of glory that is indescribable and to hear things that have been kept secret from the foundation of […]

When I was a teenager, I had a paper route, and one of my duties was to collect past due subscriptions from my customers. I remember on several occasions going to the customer’s house, and I would see cars in the driveway, and I could hear people shuffling around inside, but when I knocked on the door, no one would answer. So I would knock again, but they still wouldn’t answer. It was if they were saying to me, “I […]

A man once told his friend, “My wife has only two complaints: nothing to wear and not enough closet space!” Americans, men and women, love their clothes. One of the big chores of our daily life is to figure out what we are going to wear each day. Much like Americans, the Laodiceans were a wealthy people. They wore the finest garments. But spiritually they were naked, and so they didn’t meet heaven’s dress code. We’ll learn what that dress […]
