GOING DEEPER--What's coming in November?

Tuesday Gathering: Coming in November: A People of the Table
The Doctrine of the Trinity is confusing. How can God be one God and Three persons? Plus, even if we can get a hold on the idea of the Trinity, what does it have to do with following Jesus day after day? Starting in November, the Tuesday Gathering will be considering the amazing truth about relationship, following Jesus, and theology.
For those wanting to go deeper:

SERMON NOTES--Revelation 14

WHY WE CAN SING
The Book of Revelation, part 8
October 29, 2006
Pastor Charlie

* THE LAMB (v.1) John 1:29
Revelation 5:9, 10, 12
Revelation 7:16,17

Who are the 144,000?

1. The 144,000 are Jews who have accepted Jesus as their Messiah during the Great Tribulation.
2. The 144,000 symbolize all those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior during this great tribulation period.

The voice
* It is like the roar of rushing waters. Revelation 1:15,17,18
* It is like thunder.
* It is like harpists playing.

What about ‘Mt. Zion’?
Mt. Zion in Jerusalem or in heaven Hebrew 12: 22; John 4:19-23

* THOSE WHO SING - THE REDEEMED

Redeem is a term meaning ‘to ransom’,
* Our debt is all of our sins, Romans 3:23
* Our payment is the death of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. Romans 6:23; 1 John 2:1,2
* Our release is from bondage to sin and its penalty of death Romans 3:24-25
* Our restoration is to a relationship with God as our Father and Jesus Christ as our Savior and Master. John 1:10-13; Philippians 2:9-11; Revelation 5:9; 1 Corinthians 6:19.20

Why we can sing! Romans 8:23-24; Romans 8:28-31; Romans 8:38-39

QUALITIES NECESSARY FOR LIVING IN AN EVIL WORLD (v.4, 5)
* Keep Self Pure – Staying Faithful To God.
* Being First Fruits – Belonging To God Leviticus 23:10
* Found Blameless – Living In Integrity Romans 3:23; 1 John 1:8; 1 Thessalonians 5:22-23; Jude 24-25
* Following The Lamb – Living Out Jesus’ Purposes For Life Mark 8:34-35; Hebrews 12:2

THE ANGELS (v.6-13)
* Angel #1 – The Gospel Proclaimed (v.6, 7); Gospel is a word meaning ‘good news’ Matthew 24:14
Angel #2 – Satan’s Reign Ends (v.8)
Angel #3 – Eternal Torment (v.9-11)

* THE HARVEST (v.14-20) Matthew 13:41-43
