And so it begins...
This weekend's text is one of the most difficult to face - the reality of the warning blast of the trumpet - judgment is on the way! God is calling (blasting out the message)... "Turn to me in repentance!" Some will... some won't... Key Passage: Revelation 8:6-11:19

Like A Lamb
Jesus was oppressed and afflicted by the very people for whom he came. What must have it been like to be the Son of God, yet be led like a lamb to the slaughter by those whom you came to love, and all the while remain silent? As the songwriter put it, “He could have called ten thousand angels to destroy the world and set him free” – but he didn’t. In this message, the prophet Isaiah continues to unfold the unspeakable wonder of the suffering Messiah. Special note included in this message is the personal testimony of one of West Hills Community Church's Members.

Consequences of Rejection (Matthew 3:10)
As we come into this final portion of John’s ministry we cannot help but notice that he speaks much about judgment, hypocrisy, and eternal damnation. And there could be the subtle temptation to want to pass quickly over it because it. However, no apology is needed for this b/c it is the Word of God and hell is as much a reality as heaven and sadly, according to Scripture, more people will be there. No one likes to think about the judgment of the wicked. *The thought of eternal judgment is grievous and sad and makes me tremble inside, and yetI find fear and grief at the thought of eternal punishment. God Himself said through the prophet Ezekiel, Ezek. 33:11, “Say to them, ‘As I live!’ declares the Lord God, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn form his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then will you die, O house of Israel?” God finds no secret pleasure in the torment of His rebellious creatures. Yet it is true and He has decreed it to be so and He does so in a way that does not affect His joy at seeing His glory on display - this is a paradox which shows the depth of God’s character (Matt. 23:37-38). So, we must deal with the issue of God’s judgment because it is true, it is clearly revealed by God, and it comprised the weight of the message of John the Baptist in preparing the hearts of the people for the Messiah. So, it is the message of judgment that is the chosen backdrop of God the Holy Spirit by which the Savior and Lord is introduced

Kingdom Anticipation - #9
Pastor Stan continues the Kingdom Come series by sharing what Mark 13 has to teach us about the end times. Mark 13:6-13 offers 4 signs of judgement in every generation. He then gives us "future perspective" that we don't need to be afraid, we just need to be ready. And the bottom line is that "Our concern is not calculation, but preparation." We don't need to know when, we just need to be ready for whenever.

The Verdict (Romans 2)
Hypocrite Part 3: The Verdict Romans 2:11-16 Paul declares three truths regarding God’s judgment: 1. It is impartial (v. 11). 2. It involves the informed (vv. 12-13). 3. It involves the ignorant (vv. 14-15). Application: • Recommit yourself to the Great Commission. • Remember that no one is beyond salvation. • Be real with God and others now instead of later. • Reclaim your conscience by holding it captive to scripture.
