We Havent Seen Anything Yet
Haggai 2:6-7
6 For thus saith THE LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and
I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land
;
7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall
come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith THE LORD of hosts.
Luke 21:25-28
25"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the
stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea
and the waves roaring; "
26"Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those
things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be
shaken. "
27"And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power
and great glory. "
28"And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift
up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. "
A."We Havent Seen Anything Yet" This is a familiarsaying we
use when something is going to happen that far
exceeds something that has already been.
B.What God is saying through the prophet Haggai is; "If you think the
other shakings were something,
you just wait. You haven't seen anything yet.
C. This old world has been the scene for some catastrophic events; both
in the Bible and in secular history.
D. After all these trajedies, God says, "we haven't seen anything yet".
E. what's ahead for this world?
I. The Rapture of the Church
A. The magnitude of it.
- Jesus coming is divided into
two parts.the first part for his saints. the secound part with his
saints.
- 1 Thessalonians
4:16 16For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:
- and the dead in Christ shall
rise first:
- 17Then we which are alive
and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet
the Lord in the air:
- and so shall we ever be with
the Lord.
- B. We have witnesses people
being evacuated from time to time from certain dangers; but we have
never seen a time like this when
- God evacuates His
people from the world.
- Olld Testament example-- Lot
from Sodom and Gomorah
- Enoch
- C. this will leave the whole
world in a state of cofusion, trouble and turmoil
- II. THE TRIBULATION--GOD
WILL ALOW THE DEVILTO TAKE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THIS WORLD.
- A. The world will be under
the judgment of God. The Antichrist,false prophet and beast
will be revealed. Their will be famine
-
Death,
hail-balls weighing 100pounds. eartquakes that will move islands.
Locust out of botomless pit.
- B. Eveything that you read
about or hear in the news, is preparatory to what wil take place in the
future
after the rapture
- of
the church. Watch for the one
world government, it is here now. Watch for the one world economy, and
watch for the
- one world religion.
- THERE IS no
prophecy to be fullfilled before the rapture can happen!
Are you living right? Are you ready? Are you expecting it? Are you
desiring it to happen? Have you trusted Jesus Christ as your Saviour?
