Pastor Ryan Groshek continues in our Revelation sermon series. Revelation: The Ultimate VictoryWeek 14Highlights: Revelation 14:1-201. When it seems like the whole world has given in, we see God reserves a faithful people for Himself. (Revelations 14:1-5)2. When it seems like the world has won, we see the victors fall and the losers win (Revelations 14:6-13)"Babylon’s promise of prosperous earthly welfare for its willing subjects is an intoxication that the majority of the world’s inhabitants also want to imbibe. Once one imbibes, the intoxicating influence removes all desire to resist Babylon’s destructive influence, blinds one to Babylon’s own ultimate insecurity and to God as the source of real security, and numbs one against any fear of a coming judgment."- Greg Beale, The Book of Revelation NIGTC3. When it seems like there is no justice, we see God’s ultimate justice will prevail.
