The Final Deconstruction of the Cosmos

<h2>Global Warning - Revelation 6:12-17</h2> <h3>The Final Deconstruction of the Cosmos</h3> This is a terrifying passage. It is meant to be. The people to whom John is conveying this heavenly vision are living in fear for their lives in the Roman Empire. They need to know that the day will surely come when the tables will be reversed, and all the wrongs that have been done on them will be put to rights, in God’s time. This horrific passage was to comfort persecuted believers.&nbsp; This sermon was recorded at Templepatrick Reformed Church, and is reproduced here with their permission.

Global Warning – Rev. 6:12-17

A special episode for "Derry Day!"

Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. The second Saturday in August is ‘Derry Day’ – and in Northern Ireland many Protestants meet at Londonderry to commemorate an historical event – a siege. Actually, a very important event in our cultural and political history. The siege occurred in 1689, around a year after William of Orange had landed at Torbay, and ‘the Glorious Revolution’ was effectively ending almost a century of rule by the Stuart dynasty, a period that had brought a great burden of suffering upon those who by conscience would not conform to Roman ritual or rule of the church by state appointed bishops...

 Knox and the Scots Confession - Part 4

The Altar, the Martyrs and Us.

<h2>The Cry of the Martyrs</h2>Text: Revelation 6:9&nbsp; Revelation is full of symbols. And we interpret those symbols in the light of scripture, and because the genre is Jewish, in the light of OT Scripture. Now it is really important when we come to look at this passage. There are important symbols, and they have an OT background.&nbsp; This sermon was recorded at Templepatrick Reformed Church, and is used here with their permission.

John Knox and the Scots Confession - Part 3

Revelation 6:1-4 

<h2>The Four Horsemen</h2> You must not think of Revelation as linear history, – history written in advance for us. It is unlikely that’s the case. Revelation is not a history book, it is apocalyptic literature, and it is a series of scenes, overlapping in time, moving in parallel through the church age, and out into eternity to come, each scene revealing to us something more of God’s eternal plan and purpose, and each one ending further ahead in history, until at very end of the book we have the final state, a new heaven and earth. In this lesson we shall watch as the first four of the seals are opened, a passage often referred to as ‘The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”… This sermon was recorded live at Templepatrick Reformed Church and is reproduced here with their permission.

A Political Letter

<h2>Acts-In-Replay: “In These Terms” </h2>Acts 23:25-35 Paul is still incarcerated in the Antonia palace, the Roman garrison barracks situated on the corner of the Temple court.&nbsp;But Lysias, the Roman commander of the garrison, now is convinced that Paul can’t stay there.&nbsp;It’s too dangerous.&nbsp;He decides to hand him over to the Roman civic authorities, and so Paul must be sent to Caesarea, the Roman capital of Judaea, to appear before the governor, one Felix.&nbsp;And in case he is ambushed along the way, a convoy of troops, both on horse and on foot with accompany him, and he will not walk, but ride upon&nbsp;a horse, with back up horses available, for when the first one tires!&nbsp;And that brings us to Acts 23:25-35, and it’s neatly divided into two parts, the letter and the physical placing of Paul into formal, civic Roman custody.
