1. Revelation 22
New King James Version
The Time Is Near
6
Then he said to me, “These words are faithful and true.” And the Lord God of the [b]holy
prophets sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place.
7
“Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of
this book.”
8
Now I, John, [c]saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to
worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
9
Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. [d]For I am your fellow servant, and of
your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship
God.” 10
And he said to me, “Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the
time is at hand. 11
He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be
filthy still; he who is righteous, let him [e]be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy
still.”
Jesus Testifies to the Churches
12
“And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one
according to his work. 13
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the [f]Beginning and the End, the
First and the Last.”
14
Blessed are those who [g]do His commandments, that they may have the right to the
tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 15 [h]But outside are dogs and
sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and
practices a lie.
16
“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the
Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
17
And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let
him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.
2. 2 Timothy 3
New King James Version
Perilous Times and Perilous Men
3 But know this, that in the last days [a]perilous times will come: 2
For men will be lovers
of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents,
unthankful, unholy, 3
unloving, [b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal,
despisers of good, 4
traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers
of God, 5
having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn
away! 6
For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of
gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7
always learning and
never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8
Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted
Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning
the faith; 9
but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs
also was.
The Man of God and the Word of God
10
But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith,
longsuffering, love, perseverance, 11
persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at
Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the
Lord delivered me. 12
Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer
persecution. 13
But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and
being deceived. 14
But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been
assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15
and that from childhood you
have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through
faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for [c]instruction in righteousness, 17
that the man of God may be
complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
3. WE NEED TO HUNGER AND THIRST FOR JUSTICE.
IT IS NOT OUR JOB TO SEEK WORLDLY THINGS
AND COMFORTS, BUT TO SERVE GOD'S PEOPLE
AND WITNESS TO THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW
CHRIST.
WE SHOULD BE LIKE THOSE WHO BUILD BRIDGES
BETWEEN GOD AND SINNERS.
CHARACTER IS IMPORTANT,
THE BOOK COVER OF Ray Comfort
God has a wonderful plan for your life: The myth of
the modern message / The Myth of the Post Modern
Message
TODAY IS PREACHING ABOUT PROSPERITY,
HEALTH, EXPERIENCE EVERYTHING THAT IS
ABOUT MAN BUT NOTHING ABOUT HOLINESS.
WE MUST BE A HOLY PEOPLE, NOT LEGALISTIC,
BUT HEALTHY AND INNOCENT, NOT THINKING
ABOUT EVERYTHING CARNAL.
AFTER KNOWING CHRIST AND BEING
CONVERTED, OUR GOAL SHOULD BE ACCORDING
4. TO CHRIST, WANTING TO BE LIKE HIM, WALK AND
WALK IN HOLINESS LIKE HIM.
I WANT TO LOVE MY WIFE AS HE LOVES THE
CHURCH, I WANT TO RAISE MY CHILDREN AS HE
CARES AND PROTECTS HIS CHILDREN.
WITH A PURE HEART, A CLEAN MIND, HONESTY,
INTEGRITY AND NOBILITY.
THE CHRISTIAN LIFE IS DIFFERENT MEN AND
WOMEN,
BELOVED BROTHERS WE CANNOT CHANGE THE
WORLD IF WE ARE LIKE THE WORLD.
TO HAVE THE POWER TO BE WELL USED BY THE
LORD, WE HAVE TO BE TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND
DIFFERENT.
TODAY THE CHURCH SEEKS TO IMITATE THE
WORLD IN EVERYTHING, THE WORLD HAS A TYPE
OF MUSIC, IN THE CHURCH WE ALSO PLAY IT.
(JUST A LITTLE HOLER)
THE WORLD TAKES FASHIONS AND ALSO IN THE
CHURCH WE WANT TO USE IT.
THE WORLD SPEAKS IN SUCH A WAY AND ALSO IN
THE CHURCH.
THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH FILLED NOT WITH
THE WORD OF GOD NOR WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT,
5. BUT FILLED WITH THE IDEAS OF THE WORLD,
FULL OF WORLDLY PRACTICES.
IF WE WANT TO REFORM THE CHURCH WE MUST
RETURN TO THE SCRIPTURES. AND UNDERSTAND
THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS NOT MY
WELLNESS, IT IS NOT MY ECONOMIC PROSPERITY.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE GLORY OF
GOD
I LIKE A SERVANT LOSING THIS LIFE, TO GAIN THE
LIFE THAT COMES.
