Motivated by the Invisible World, Part 2 of 2 (The Invisible World)
April 19, 2013
Two kingdoms. Two kings. Two value-systems. Two pathways. Two ultimate destinations.
In Philippians 3, Paul tells of those who are enemies of the cross of Christ, and how we can discern who is in God’s kingdom, and who is in the world’s kingdom led by Satan. Today: how believers should be motivated to make a difference while they’re still in this world.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

Christians live in two worlds: the visible one of everyday life, and the invisible world of the spirit. These two worlds are often in conflict, and so our journey through life isn’t always easy. Making it through that journey requires the motivation to endure it, but where do we find that motivation?

In the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the King of Rohan has an aide always whispering silvery words of evil in his ear. His name: Grimmer Wormtongue. In this mythical world, he fed the king lies. But false prophets are prevalent in the real world as well. These agents of the devil spread falsehoods about God to a gullible public. In today’s message, learn more characteristics of false prophets.

Some call it “black magic.” But it’s really Satan. He gives spiritual power to deceived people—and it is not a power for good. Through Satanic rituals, sorcery, charms, and other means, the devil enslaves his victims in a world of false religion: a world of evil, and a world of bondage.

Books that always seem to be popular are those that tell of near-death experiences, and the wonderful heaven that awaits us all. But the problem with most of them is that they books don’t mention any need for faith in Christ as the means to get there. The devil is deceiving multitudes into thinking that there’s no need to fear death: all will be okay.

In eternity past, a civil war took place in heaven. Some of God’s angels rebelled, and a great darkness began. Satan and his forces were cast to Earth where, to this day, they’re at war with the people of God. They’re always seeking to destroy what God is building. Sometimes, through divination, demons seek to lure people into their trap. In today’s message, learn Satan’s methods, and our best defense.

God does not limit Himself to church buildings when He wishes to speak to His children. A man named Jacob found that out when God came to him when he was sleeping on the ground using a rock for a pillow. In a dream, he learned of God’s plans for him and his nation. That place became sacred and Jacob called it “the gate of heaven.” Today: how each of us can meet God in the very same way.

We live in a visible world, but around us is an equally real invisible world. Sometimes the two intersect very tangibly. God may intervene supernaturally when we least expect it. That happened many times in both the Old and New Testaments. In today’s message, God speaks to a man in a dream, and reveals that man’s future destiny. This divine intersection is often called “Jacob’s ladder.”

The Bible tells of a life beyond this life—a life where all the wrongs of this world are made right. That world is, for now, part of an invisible world: the world of the spirit, the world of heaven and hell, God, angels and demons. Christians have to live in both worlds, and it’s our job to get ready for the world to come.

Our eyes can only process a narrow range of the energy called light. We can’t see infrared or ultraviolet. Many things are very real, even though we can’t see them. Life on Earth is not limited to what our five senses can detect. There’s an entire world out there that exists in the realm of the spirit. Today: a series begins that tells about that invisible world and how we relate to it.

The Christian faith is diametrically opposed to the Koran’s teachings. Like oil and water, the two cannot mix. Terror attacks are now frequent as radical Muslims seek to impose the rule of Mohammed on the entire world. Should Christians “live and let live?” Or should we be proactive in bringing to gospel to an ever-more resistant culture? The stakes are huge, and that’s our focus on today’s broadcast.
