The Victor Who Returns

• Almighty God is going to make things right. I don’t know about the rest of you. Sometimes over these last weeks, I felt like hell has opened up its door and let every evil thing you can think of come out. Every time I turn on the television, I I grew up uh reading uh these passages from the Bible. And I remember when I was studying the book of Daniel, I read a story about King Nebuchadnezzar who was such a hateful man.
• And one day uh one of his enemies was caught. He had seven boys. And uh he put out the eyes of all of the children and put out the eyes of the father last so that the last thing he would ever remember was that all of his children had been deprived of their eyesight. You read in the history of that particular time about beheadings.
• I never thought I would live to hear that term in my day. And it’s been happening and children and young people and even babies and then they’re thrown into a mass grave. How do you ever deal with such an awful thing? I’ve told so many people, I think hell will be especially hot for people who torture individuals like that.
• You wonder, how is that ever going to be made right? Sometimes you say, why doesn’t God do something? And I want to tell you, God is going to do something. He’s going to come back and make it right. On today’s program, our tour takes us to the time when Jesus Christ returns to earth. His second coming will not be as an infant, but in all of his power and glory as the son of God.
• Stay tuned for today’s edition of Turning Point, the victor who returns. The message of hope in the Bible is a message that’s sorely needed in our day. And often times when people think of the end times, they don’t realize that if you’re a follower of Christ, that’s the message of hope. What does the Bible say? It says, “Lift up your heads.
• Your redemption is drawing nigh.” I don’t know about the rest of you, but as I look out on what’s happening in our world today, it doesn’t seem like it could be too far. So, tonight, I want to tell you a story about where it’s all going and how it all ends. Throughout the book of Revelation, it seems like everywhere you look, evil is running rampant, inflicting unprecedented suffering and persecution on God’s faithful people.
• But in Revelation chapter 19, the moment comes that God’s people have been waiting for ever since Jesus Christ ascended into heaven before his aruck disciples. It is the moment when Christ returns. The last few chapters of the book of Revelation and much of Matthew chapter 24 tell us about the details and how Christ will come to earth in judgment and justice.
