Revelation 10 and The Mystery of God

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 30, 2015 by Steve DurkacFebruary 21, 2022avatar

A big takeaway from our teaching time this morning in Revelation 10 is the seven thunders, which John was told not to write down for us to know what they were. As followers of Christ Jesus, we don’t always have all the information we may think we need or want, but Deuteronomy 29:29 reminds us “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children … Continue reading →

Finding Peace

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 27, 2015 by Steve DurkacAugust 27, 2015avatar

Finding peace in today’s sobering headlines can be tough. You don’t have to be prone to discouragement to feel a little unsettled about the future. It appears that we are watching the decline of American leadership as a strong a defender of the same Judeo-Christian values that built our nation, and Satan is rapidly filling that cultural void with divisive and dividing issues. What are we to do in order to not go through our days … Continue reading →

Wrath of God?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 23, 2015 by Steve DurkacAugust 23, 2015avatar

I mentioned today as we were looking at Revelation 8 and 9 that I would email you the psalm that I was trying to think of on judgement, and that is actually was Psalm 97. While looking for my notes on Psalm 97 I realized that a recent message from John MacArthur covered in a powerful way this very topic of God’s wrath. I’ve copied a portion of the message titled “We Will Not Bow” that deals … Continue reading →

Why Prophecy?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 20, 2015 by Steve DurkacAugust 20, 2015avatar

At our Midweek Fellowship we watched a DVD from Tommy Nelson on the introduction to the prophecies of Daniel. He laid out 9 reasons for prophecy and I would like to share those again here: It gives us comfort to know that God has a plan (1 Thessalonians 4:13). It keeps us sober minded about life and the future. It instills a healthy fear (2 Corinthians 5:9-10). It invites us to join the privileged in … Continue reading →

Why Evil?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 19, 2015 by Steve DurkacAugust 19, 2015avatar

Evil is the result of sin in our world, but we sometimes wonder why God doesn’t stop it all now. 2 Peter 3:8-10 shares this “But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but … Continue reading →

Satan’s Persecution or God’s Wrath?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 5, 2015 by Steve DurkacAugust 5, 2015avatar

For the sake of understanding the prophecies of Revelation and the coming final events, know that there is a difference between tribulation that is persecution caused by Satan and tribulation that is the wrath caused by God. Believers of every age have experienced persecution brought upon them because of the hate of Satan against the followers of Christ. Jesus said in John 16:33 “In the world you will have tribulation” (ESV), and those martyred by the … Continue reading →
