The King Invites Us to Reign with Him, Part 4 of 4

August 9, 2012
Ever wonder what heaven will be like? The best description we have is that of the Holy City — the New Jerusalem. In this glorious, gigantic city, the saints will enjoy equality. We’ll be in perfect health, serving God together, all in the blaze of “no more night,” and all of this into “the ages of the ages.” Today we will take a final look at the believer’s eternal home, and a look at who gets to live there.

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.

Revelation 21 unveils the wonders of our future eternal home in the New Jerusalem — the Holy City. Those who believed in Jesus will find an eternity of service awaiting them when they arrive in this gigantic city. Today we’ll look at what life will be like, as the redeemed of all ages fellowship in the blaze of the light of God Himself.

Imagine an endless eternity in the presence of God Almighty. No sin, just the light of holiness. The Jewish temple had a Holy of Holies where God dwelt. In eternity, the Holy City is that Holy of Holies. No priest will be needed to mediate our access because Jesus is our High Priest. Today: more on the wonders of Revelation 21 and the believer’s eternal home.

After the Millenial reign of Jesus, heaven literally comes down to Earth in the form of the New Jerusalem. This spectacular city will be the eternal home of the redeemed of all the ages. This is what Jesus referred to when He said “in My Father’s house are many dwelling places.” The Holy City is beyond imagination, but in today’s message we’ll make an attempt to grasp its wonder.

The judgment for all who never believed in Jesus is both awful and eternal. We can’t even conceive of what Hell would be like. So how do we avoid this irreversible sentence? The answer is found in the most famous verse in the Bible: John 3:16. We appeal to all who listen to take advantage of God’s plan of salvation.

It’s not easy to grapple with the reality of an eternal hell. The idea of hell is repugnant. But the Bible teaches that there is an ultimate lake of fire. When all is said and done, we either believe what the Bible says, or we reject it to our own peril. Let’s learn about the basis of judgment for those who never heard the gospel, and for those who did.

Revelation 20:15 states, “And if anyone’s name was not found in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.” The idea of a final judgment offends many people. They can’t conceive of a God who would send anyone to a fiery hell. In today’s message, we’ll take a sobering look at what the Bible teaches about the final destiny of those who didn’t believe in Jesus for salvation.

After a thousand years of peace on Earth, you’d think everyone would be happy. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case. As the Millenium wraps up, there’s a final rebellion, and a final battle to quell it. It’s then that Satan finally gets what he deserves — an infinite sentence in a lake of fire. Today we’ll learn how things will end as history terminates and eternity begins.

One reason for world peace during the coming Millennial kingdom? Our arch-enemy, Satan, will be locked up the whole time. Revelation 20 details the devil’s incarceration. With Satan’s mischief under wraps, the redeemed that enter this wondrous time find that even nature has changed — the lion will dwell with the lamb. Today we’ll study a literal thousand-year reign of Jesus.

“Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.” That is the Millennium — a thousand years of enforced peace on Earth under the rule of Jesus Christ. Long prophesied, this utopia will be centered in Jerusalem. What the U.N. could never do, Jesus will do. Today, we’ll learn what the Millennium is and why it’s coming.

When Jesus Christ returns in glory, Revelation 19 says He’ll do so riding on a white horse. With Him will be the armies of heaven, set to destroy all who oppose Him. He’ll reign with a rod of iron, treading the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of almighty God. No negotiations. No peace talks. Just total destruction, and the onset of His kingdom on Earth.
