Week 8

Jul 30, 2025    Gary Hewins

In this powerful exploration of Revelation 14-16, we're confronted with the sobering reality of God's judgment and the urgency of our response to His grace. The imagery of the grape harvest and winepress vividly illustrates God's wrath against sin, reminding us of the serious consequences of rebellion. Yet, amidst this stark picture, we're called to reflect on the incredible mercy shown to us through Christ's sacrifice. The parallel drawn between the 'cup of indignation' poured out on the earth and the cup Christ drank at Gethsemane offers a profound insight into the depth of God's love and the cost of our salvation. As we contemplate these truths, we're challenged to examine our own hearts: Are we clothed in Christ's righteousness? Are we living with a sense of desperation for God that stems from relationship rather than tribulation? This message urges us to embrace God's grace fully and to share it fervently with others, recognizing the eternal significance of our choices and actions.
