Sermon Moments
“You and I living in 2024 are not neutral in any of this; we are either a citizen of Babylon or a citizen of the New Jerusalem.”
“Human flourishing cannot be found in man-made political structures, but only in submitting to Jesus as King of kings and Lord of lords.”
“Babylon entices people with wealth, power, and luxury, trying to steal focus and worship away from God.”
“The Book of Revelation was not written so you would go build a bigger bunker and store up more ammo; it was written so you would build a bigger dining room table.”
“The metaphor of a tick on a dog illustrates demonization: if left unchecked, spiritual attacks grow and cause harm, so believers must confront spiritual warfare directly.”
