{NOTE: To receive these Sermon notes below via email, in an outline form (which is easier to understand), please email your request to Pastor Marcus Johnson: efcamarcus@sbcglobal.net}. INTRODUCTION: an Eschatological View of Time – “History has changed its direction, says Newman. It runs ‘not towards the end, but along it, and on the brink of it; and is at all times near the great event, which did it run towards it, it would at once run into. Christ then is ever at our doors.’ Since the coming of Jesus, history has a new urgency, a sense that its end is at hand and the powers of the future are impinging upon it. … Thus at any moment history could lapse over the line and bring about the end. And history’s proximity to the line (The End) will be signaled by the devastating events described here and elsewhere in the New Testament. (*Gary M. Burge, Letters of John, p.126-27). JOHN’S WARNING & HIS REASSURANCE – (1) Walk in Spiritual Discernment (vs18-19): --> Regarding “the Last Hour” (v18); --> Regarding Antichrist & Antichrists (v18); --> Regarding False Believers: “Leaving Us & being Exposed” (v19). (2) You know the Truth of Jesus Christ! (vs20-23). (3) Abide in Christ as the Gospel Abides in You! (vs24-28): --> Abide in Christ by letting the Gospel abide in you (vs24-25); --> Abide in Christ because the Gospel abides in you (vs26-28). GOSPEL CONFIDENCE IN DAILY LIFE – (1) We know the “True” Jesus and God’s “Revealed” Word. (2) We Trust the Power and Promise of the Gospel.

How the World Will End
Daniel 7:1-28 Never has a date been so significant to so many men, so many cultures, and so many nations as the year 2012. In fact, a Google search of "2012" will deliver close to 200 million web sites that pertain to the coming of that year. Such attention could potentially generate a phenomenon similar to that of "Y2K" and a recent movie entitled "2012" demonstrates the latest attempts of the movie industry to capitalize on people's fascination with the topic of the end of the world. While the world searches for meaning as we live out the end times, there is a much better source to reference regarding the end times. If you want to know how the world will end, there's no better place to turn than to the very author and creator of the universe. In God's Word, the topic of the end of the world is addressed in one of the most well-known apocalyptic sections of scripture - the Book of Daniel. Unfortunately though, many Christians have not been taught about the various aspects of end times prophesy as written about in the Bible. In the last six chapters of the book of Daniel, we learn that apocalyptic literature is actually a theology of hope to those who the world has marginalized. Here, Daniel gives his people hope through a series of visions that pertain to the coming end times and his prophetic words should give us the same hope today. Indeed, the last six chapters of Daniel are just as much the inspired Word of God as the first six chapters, which deal with the historical accounts from Daniel's time. As such, his prophetic scripture it is equally profitable for teaching, reproof and correction. God considers His Word about the future to be very important because He willed to include it in the Bible. I tonight's sermon, Pastor Ramey teaches from the seventh chapter of Daniel, which occurred during the reign of Belshazzar. In Daniel's first vision, we are given a glimpse into the three kingdoms of the world: 1. The Kingdoms of the World (vv. 2-6) 2. The Kingdom of Satan (vv. 7-8) 3. The Kingdom of Jesus Christ (vv. 9-28) As believers, we know that we live in tough times, but the times we live in are no tougher than were Daniel's. Are you ready for the world to end? Do you know if you'll be saved from God's wrath, or will you be the object of His wrath? Jesus Christ could return at any moment, which should motivate us to walk in such a way as to not incur shame or suffer remorse, but to live with joy in the coming days.

not lovin' it
Jesus said, the greatest commandment was to Love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. But he also said do not love the world or anything in the world, if anyone loves the world - the Love of the Father is not in him. Simply, you cannot love God and the world. Loving God means obeying him and we are called to live in this world and love the people of this world but not to love this worlds system. The tension and struggle for our affection and devotion ion is real. Are you ready to join other Christ followers in saying, "I've made my choice- i'm not lovin' it?"
