THE SOLUTION TO ALL GLOBAL PROBLEMS–Satan’s Super Man is coming
Part 1
As we open to Rev. 6:2, I wonder if most of us remember what directly precedes the launch of the Tribulation?
The way that Jesus, Paul, John & Daniel all describe the start of the Tribulation is not with disasters, wars, famines, and pestilences.
The Tribulation begins, according to the Bible, with global peace, safety, and prosperity.
For decade after decade, we in Christ’s church have been well taught about the inexorable slide our world is
in, heading towards the final war.
Armageddon and the apocalyptic events associated with it are even part of secular media reports. We hear
regularly of the dangers of nuclear war, bioterrorism, pollution, and global warming.
It seems like every day we are seeing more and more of what the Bible talks about, with our world plunging
deeper into chaos, ethnic conflicts, horrific acts of terrorism and aggression, and what seems like more
and more natural disasters. God’s Word warns of all these plagues, quakes, and famines. Do all those conditions
mean that the Tribulation is close? The real question we need to find the answer to, from God’s Word is:
Which Comes First: Global Peace or Global Holocaust?
Is Earth sliding straight down the slope into the fiery destruction, demon hordes, solar scorching, and global
holocaust as described in Revelation? In other words, will things get darker and darker, and disasters
amplify until the Tribulation scene bursts into view? The answer God’s Word gives may surprise you.
Ultimately all those disasters will hit, but temporarily, God says a time of unprecedented prosperity and
peace is coming our way.
=============================
Revelation Chapter 6
I’m happy to say and as we open to Revelation 6 and verse 2. I wonder and and you know most people
have a kind of a preset when you go to Revelation. We know what you’re going to talk about you know
the disasters but do most of us remember what directly precedes God’s launch of the tribulation?
Remember God launches the tribulation it doesn’t happen God launches it and and we’re
seeing it two is the launch it. It’s almost like the first missile going out Sent From Heaven toward
the Earth well that is way that Jesus and the Apostle Paul and the Apostle John and the Old Testament
Prophet Daniel all describe the start of the tribulation is not with disasters, Wars,,famines, earthquakes,
or pestilences.
The tribulation begins according to the Bible with global peace and prosperity and safety.
Now that I mean that just doesn’t sound like you know the late great planet Earth Fair.
We’re so used to the gloom and doom but actually as we’ll see even though for decade after decade we
in Christ Church have been well taught about the inexorable slide our world is heading in toward that
final war toward the final Holocaust Armageddon and all the apocalyptic events associate with it are
part of secular media I mean we hear that all the time in fact now the weather channel has picked up on
it now they call the storms we went through this past winter snow mageddon Los Angeles calls their
traffic Carmageddon all of that is because the biblical metaphors are in society we hear regularly about
the dangers of nuclear war, of riot, terrorism, of pollution and global warming. It seems like every day
we’re seeing more and more of what the Bible talks about it seems like our world is plunging deeper into
chaos. There are more ethnic conflicts. There are greater horrific acts of terrorism and aggression.
It seems like they’re more and more natural disasters but we hear all these disasters.
So God’s word warns us that plagues, Quakes and famines are all part of the tribulation but what we really
need to see from the Bible is the scriptures to guide us because the Lord sent this to us so we would know
and we need to answer the question from God’s word which comes first Global Peace or Global
Holocaust?
You already know the answer because Jesus, Paul, Daniel
Right here in Revelation John tell us that what come first is global peace
and prosperity that’s what’s next for planet Earth on God’s schedule.
Well is Earth sliding straight down the slope to firey destruction and Demon hordes and solar scorching
and the Holocaust described in Revelation in other words will the things get darker and darker and disasters
just keep amplifying until the tribulation bursts into view. Well the answer from God’s word might surprise us
because what the Lord says is ultimately all those disasters are going to hit but
temporarily in the short term. God says we are headed toward a time of
unprecedented prosperity and peace is coming our way. Although all those
prophesied disasters are coming. God explains that just prior to the tribulation our world will experience
the peace and safety and the prosperity and Harmony that mankind has only
dreamed of for centuries.
Just before the very worst time in history our world may well see the best times that humans have enjoyed
since the Garden of Eden. That’s Revelation 6:2 and it reminds us this morning that peace and safety.
The Cry Of All Humans for over the past 6,000 years since the fall of humanity
into sin is going to finally come but it’s only temporary and it’s going to be shattered so quickly by the
worst times the world has ever known so there is coming in a day not too much in the distant future when a
Superman is going to rise and he’s not going to be in the theaters and he’s not going to need special effects
and this Superman is going to amaze everyone. To everyone’s grateful surprise he will at last bring to Earth
the peace and safety they’ve longed for.
That’s the first element of the tribulation that God introduces us to.
That’s Revelation 6:1-2
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder,
one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given
unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
Go there let’s read the first two verses. Listen as God briefs
us on the future and we need to understand why he briefs us Revelation 6
verses 1 and two.
We know God’s it is inspired and the more the world makes fun of Christians and what we believe.
The truth of your word the more we’re aware that this is the very voice of you. God has captured, written down,
preserved for us and in our possession. May we take the time to hear and to allow your spirit to Open the
Eyes of our understanding and may we understand why you have given us this
road map of the future so speak to our hearts especially apply Lord Jesus to
our hearts the lessons you want us to learn today that we might live according
to the plan that you have for us to know about in the name of Jesus we pray amen.
The last days is when this world with all of its current problems arrives at a time of
peace and safety and prosperity that’s something that we need to think about especially
as things ratchet up. I mean all of you know that there’s this Global debt kind of balloon that
swelling up about a month ago.
I was reading about China has built about 20 cities and spent $3 trillion doing that and the cities
are empty not a person lives in them they’re complete cities. They have 30 40 50 story
skyscrapers. Apartments malls, sidewalks, roads lamps you know stop lights trash
cans appliances in every apartment. Tile on every floor but nobody lives there
What they’ve done is to to make China grow to the second largest economy
in the world they’ve had to get their factories working and their workmen working.
The construction industry going and the appliance industry going
and one of the best ways to do it is to build a City. Well I read I mean I watched the video
clip and it showed how you could tell which were empty cities. You go by one of these I mean I was
counting the stories and I saw 30 40 and 50 story buildings and there wasn’t a human being
other than the security guards anywhere in sight in these places. So only
that to tell you that the time is coming when the debt that people I mean it’s
worked China is the second largest economy in the world but they also have an immense amount of debt for all of
this building and construction.
Their people have taken on it’s kind of like become a real estate kind of like.
They used to flip condos in Miami. You’d buy for 50 sell it for 100 and then someone sell it for 200 and
then 400 and people were making fortunes flipping real estate in hot markets.
Then it all came down. well that’s going to happen sooner or later over there the whole I mean you know
that Europe’s going through this right now. I mean it’s it’s amazing Greece laid off yesterday the first
person in 105 years that’s ever been laid off by the government of Greece. There’s hard times
coming but there’s going to be this Superman that with one hand can get the
Muslims to stop fighting each other. The Sunnis and Shiites and get them to stop fighting and hating and
being intent on the destruction of Israel. In the same with his other hand he’s going to reach over and
start working out all the debt crisis. Then he’s going to work on all the other the Problem. The food problem
there isn’t enough rice to go around right now. There’s not enough water in so many parts of the world sub
Sahara and of course India and Central China.
He’s just going to solve all the problems and the world is going to
go into this time as Jesus described the time leading up to the end of days as a
time of peace and safety and prosperity.
In fact Paul says in 2 Thessalonians when they cry peace and safety
sudden destruction will come on them but the world is crying out and and experiencing peace and safety well
what Christ shows John here in Revelation 6 and then has John write down for us in the Bible is a lesson in divine
inspiration now that’s the first before we even get into this prophecy remember this comes to us divinely
inspired by God.
This is not John you know as he’s in retirement on an island
writing books it’s God breathing out and inspiring and divine inspiration reminds
us and the doctrine we need to understand and hold tightly to is the truth that God’s word gives us is a
direct Revelation this is not John’s words, Paul’s words, James’s words, Daniel’s
words or Moses’s words. It’s directly from God sent to us to tell us exactly what
God wants us to know. So God’s Word is inspired which means God’s Word is truth which means that God’s Word is
Flawless, it’s Perfect, it’s Inherent, it’s Trustworthy so God send it to
us. if you remember when we started in the Book of Revelation the whole purpose of this book if you read
the first couple of words of the first few verses.
It’s the revelation of Jesus Christ the unveiling of Christ which God gave him to give to his
servants. We are his servants. We are the recipients of this Revelation.
It’s a Revelation to show us as His Servants the things that are going to happen in the world according to God’s
Almighty and Perfect Plan see from our perspective it seems like we’re headed
for a crisis. Here it’s all going to come down and and it will be horrible. God says yeah the whole world is
going to think it’s that way. The whole world is going to think that it’s hopeless and there’s no way out of
the Debt Crisis and the Water Crisis and the Food Crisis and the Bioterrorism crisis and all the the the
radical Islamic terrorist crisis.
Then the Jesus everybody wants the one who doesn’t say you have to repent of your sins.
The one that says I’ll just give you what you want.
Kind of like the some of what we see on Christian television you know just anything you want.
You can have it. He finally steps forward only he’s the anti- Jesus.
We can always trust God who alone knows the future because that’s what he says so.
Let’s go to verse two of chapter 6 and we’re going to plot through there there are four phrases in
this verse.
I call them four truths because each of the phrases presents a one truth God wants us to know and
here’s the first one we will discuss in the next Lesson Part 2.
“Only one life to live and soon is past
Only what’s done for Christ will last!”
Hoping to make the time I have left count for the glory of God.
