Pastor Chuck Smith Excerpts from The Book of Revelation There are Songs for the Redeemed

Note: This is an excerpt from Revelation 14 in the full lesson. Pastor Chuck Smith explains, focusing heavily on the 144,000 servants of God who bore God's seal on their foreheads. These individuals, he explains, are in stark contrast to the multitudes who bear the mark of the Antichrist, proposing a theme of remaining devoted to God despite any potential adversity. In this unique relationship with the Lord, the 144,000 servants not only bear God's seal but also sing a unique song representing their preservation through the great tribulation, different from the church's song of redemption and victory. As the sermon progresses, Pastor Chuck shifts his focus to worldly matters, expressing his concern over the escalating rebellion against God. Emphasizing the importance of prayer as a tool for change, he invites his listeners to join him in fasting and praying. Pastor Chuck then talks about the angel who brings the everlasting gospel, warning humanity to worship God rather than the beast or its image. He adds that those who ignore this warning will feel God's wrath and suffer eternal separation from Him. Concluding the lesson with the discussion of the much-feared Battle of Armageddon and Jesus' second coming, Pastor Chuck highlights the imminent devastation but also the hope and salvation Jesus brings. Pastor Chuck encourages the congregation to ready themselves for Jesus' return and to seek salvation through Him. Pastor Chuck ends by striking a balance between the dire warnings from the Revelation, worldly worries, and the eternal hope Jesus offers to all, serving as a potent reminder for the faithful to stay the course despite the world's challenges.
