Every time his cruel blade falls on the head of an unwavering Christian, the Antichrist must think to himself, I have won another victory! He cries out to his victims with eyes full of malice, “Look at you: you’re imprisoned and hated by everyone! And for what—a dead Messiah? You’re all fools!” But that is merely the perspective from earth. The heavenly view which John gives us in Revelation 15:1-8 is quite different: guess who the fool is now . . .
Did you know the average person speaks between 2,000 and 10,000 words a day?! That means we have thousands of opportunities daily to encourage others or tear them down, to honor God or dishonor Him, and Jesus says in Matthew 12:34 that each word spoken reveals a little more about who we are on the inside. So in this series, Stephen takes us back into the convicting book of James to give us a long, hard look at our hearts…through the window of our mouths.
