Micah 1:2-7

July 16, 2020

We witness God’s judgment in nature, through natural disasters like earthquakes and tsunamis. And we see His judgment of government corruption through the bringing down of nations and cities. These are all miniatures of the great destruction coming in the last days. But even in judgment, Micah reveals ours to be a wonderful God who pardons iniquity.

Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

God’s judgment and redemption are the themes of the book of Micah. Though written long ago, Micah’s message is surprisingly contemporary. He condemns violence, corruption, robbery, covetousness, gross materialism, spiritual bankruptcy, and illicit sex. Sounds like it could be written today, doesn’t it?

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. J. Vernon McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
