Welcome to our Sunday morning worship service. This morning Pastor Gary is preaching on Revelation 10 & 11, “The Mighty Angel, The Two Witnesses, & The Messiah’s Kingdom.” There are a lot of angels described in the book of Revelation. Who is the Mighty Angel of chapter 10? Revelation gives instruction for the spiritual seed and the natural seed of Abraham. Who are they, and what is the difference? (Which are you?) Who are the two witnesses in chapter 11? What is going to happen when Jesus ushers in His (the Messiah’s) Kingdom? These two chapters of Revelation contain answers to these and other questions. As we ponder these questions today we will finish with one final self-reflection: “How are we using our time, talent, testimony, and treasure for the Messiah and His Kingdom?” We are glad you are here today, studying with us.

Welcome to our Sunday morning worship service. This morning Pastor Gary Barber is preaching on Revelation 6 and Matthew 24, “The Seals Are Opened – The Beginning of Birth Pains!” Did you know the 6 seals in Revelation correspond to Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 24? It is important for us to understand that what Jesus reveals in Revelation 6 He taught to His disciples while He was on earth. We are going to learn the relationship between these two chapters today. The only way to escape from the wrath of The Lamb is by receiving the mercy of The Lamb.
