Sunday Sermon (Summarized) by Pastor Clinton Harvey: Series-The Holy of Holies (24.07.2016)
Christians can be classified into two types:
Type One: Christians that personally know God, God knows them by name and their names are written in the lambs book of life-these Christians will be raptured.
Type Two: Christians who have one foot in the world and one foot in the church, these people look, act, dress and carry their Bibles like Christians but are far from being Christians. These Christians will be left behind.
If you are left behind you need to know what is coming your way. Therefore, we need to pay attention to the signs of the time.
Angelology - the study of Angels. We are not called to worship Angels, we are called to worship God. However angels form part of Gods mighty Army and they are the hosts of heaven that will come down with Jesus when He returns.
There are 9 types of angels recorded in the Bible
🔹Cherubim: known for power and beauty (Genesis 3:24)
🔹Seraphim: perform priestly duties (Isaiah 6:1-7)
🔹Living Creatures: mentioned in revelation, worshipping God (Revelation 6:1-8)
🔹Arch-Angels: rule kingdoms and planets (Colossians 1:15)
🔹Angel Michael is one of the chief princes of Israel (Daniel 10:13)
🔹Angel Gabriel: stands before God and delivers important messages (Daniel 8:16-29)
🔹Common Angels: around us, helping us, helping the church (Matthew 1:20-29)
🔹Guardian Angels: given charge over us (Psalm 91:12)
🔹Ministering Angels: like the one who cooked a hot meal for Elijah when he was running away from an angry Jezebel (1 Kings 19:5-7)
🔹Avenging Angels: carry out Gods judgement (Genesis 19:1-29)
🔹Death Angels: bring upon a type of judgement to those who persecute an innocent group(Revelation 3:8)
Eschatology: the study of end times
The rapture is the thing that closes the age of the church. When the church leaves then the Holy Spirit also leaves
🔹Those left behind have to deal with the new world order (Revelation 13:11-18)
🔹Those without the mark of the beast will be labeled as terrorists and will not be able to access the basic necessities on this earth, unless they decide to take the mark of the beast.
🔹 The only way to heaven is through Jesus and the only way to leave this earth is to die.
