“Satan does not know the exact time of Christ’s return or when the restrainer will be removed, so he must have a potential candidate for the Antichrist ready in every generation.”

“I think what hides under the surface of both approaches, though, is fear. Fear of God. Fear of there being no God; fear of there being a God who is in a perpetual state of irritation; fear of discovering that your religion got it horribly wrong; fear of being afraid because that is assuredly a sin. The people here wrap themselves in what they fear most, like hunters who would dress themselves in the animal skins of fierce predators, while we pay distant homage to that same horrific thing from behind the three-inch safety glass of pious ceremony.”

“Jesus’s voice today trumpets reveille to a drowsy bride. It’s a clarion call, jolting us to attention and rousing us all out of our collective slumber. This voice is a familiar one. We’ve heard it thousands of times before. Calling in our spirit. Reviving us. Rescuing from danger. Romancing us back to Him. Confronting us in our sin. Comforting us in our confusion. Challenging us toward the next faith adventure. Whispering to us in the pain of our darkest hours, “I’m still here. Right here beside you. I’m never leaving you.”

“Ever wonder why Christians are often lethargic in worship? Why our allegiance is weak and our obedience sporadic? It’s because we know little of God’s power working through the church. Imagine how our faith and worship would explode if we witnessed more of God’s life-changing work in the lives of His people. Again, the spiritual principle here is “the greater the awe, the greater the worship.”

“This tells us our redemption is older than creation itself, and that God’s loving heart and will to save us traces to eternity past.54 That’s how long God has loved you.”
