Revelation 6:9-11 -- The Seals are BROKEN!!! (Part 2)


"When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed."
Revelation 6:9-11

The Seals Are Broken, Part 2 - Dr. Danny Forshee - September 14, 2014 from Great Hills Baptist Church on Vimeo.

Outline:

  1. Revelation (v. 9)
    - "Don't worry about it."
    - God gives special Grace for special occasions.
    - God's still sovereign
  2. Question (v. 10)
    Isaiah 55:8-9
    - How long will you wait?!?
    - God's not bothered by your questions.
    - His GRACE is sufficient.
    - Our view is limited; He sees the whole thing.
  3. Exhalation (v.11)
    Ecclesiastes 3:11
    Acts 17:30-31
Highlights:
  • Unprecedented revival during the Great Tribulation; they all die martyr's deaths.
  • No animosity like animosity towards Christ.
  • Slain for the Word of God and their testimony.
    • Testimony includes Faith and commitment to Christ.
  • White Robe = Faithfulness and steadfastness.
  • "If you are in Christ Jesus, you really don't have anything to worry about; if you're not in Christ Jesus you have everything to worry about.
  • "The more I preach the Bible, and the more I learn about Jesus, the more in love I become."
  • The thing about hurricanes is...you've got plenty of warning and there is more warning about the day of the wrath of God than any natural event.
