Living Waters of Grace for April 6th, 2026 · Living Waters of Grace / Calvary Chapel of Westmoreland Sunday Services

• 0:03
  This is Living Waters of Grace, the teaching ministry of Clark
• 0:08
  Wofford, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel of Westmoreland,
• 0:12
  County of Greensburg, PA. Now here's Pastor Clark as he
• 0:16
  continues teaching through God's Word.
• 0:37
  Jesus is the perfect example of forgiving us, isn't it?
• 0:42
  And everything we did to him, he never once said, hey, I'll
• 0:47
  forgive these people, but no way am I forgiving them.
• 0:49
  They're just like they hurt me too much, they did too much
• 0:52
  evil. They just, they're worthless.
• 0:54
  No, God sees value and worth in every human being, and He died
• 1:01
  for our sins. And so how can I, how can you
• 1:05
  not be willing to forgive other people for their offenses?
• 1:10
  Forgiveness is one of the single most difficult topics in the
• 1:14
  body of Christ. Stop and think about your own
• 1:17
  struggles and the struggles of the people you know.
• 1:20
  They're almost all deeply rooted in an unwillingness to forgive.
• 1:25
  Pastor Clark will remind us today that forgiveness is
• 1:29
  central to the life of a follower of Jesus, and Jesus was
• 1:33
  our very best example. While we were yet sinners,
• 1:37
  Christ died for us. So we need to walk in the
• 1:40
  forgiveness that Jesus walked in.
• 1:43
  Now. Here's Pastor Clark in
• 1:45
  Revelation Chapter 11 with today's edition of Living Waters
• 1:49
  of Grace. And you look at the goal of
• 1:51
  modern healthcare today, it's it's fascinating.
• 1:54
  They want to deny the reality of death.
• 1:56
  I mean, the last thing that they want to tell you in the hospital
• 1:59
  is like there's no more hope. I mean, an honest doctor will
• 2:02
  say that they'll be upfront with you, but most of them say, hey,
• 2:04
  we can do this, we can do that. They got all these ideas with
• 2:08
  magic tricks they can pull out of their hat and maybe give you
• 2:10
  another couple years. They don't tell you like how
• 2:12
  miserable you might be or you might you don't have to be
• 2:15
  forced to be on artificial life support and that kind of stuff
• 2:18
  because it's a point on the man wants to die and after this a
• 2:20
  judgement. So my question is at times, when
• 2:23
  does medical science become a blessing and when is it becoming
• 2:26
  a curse? Because if it gets in the way of
• 2:28
  God's preordained plan, right, and begins to try to make life
• 2:33
  its own sustainer as opposed to God himself, then these poor
• 2:37
  people are are on these tubes unconscious and staying alive
• 2:41
  for a sometimes a very long time when they're already pretty much
• 2:47
  gone. It's an interesting discussion
• 2:50
  and I'm sure all of us might have some different points of
• 2:52
  view on that, but it's the medical and the new age gurus
• 2:59
  today that have this philosophy that it's just a matter of time
• 3:04
  before we conquer aging. Isn't that good news, guys that
• 3:07
  make you feel better than any? This a matter of time, brother,
• 3:10
  before we conquer aging. You're going to live to be 500?
• 3:13
  No, boy. Yeah.
• 3:15
  I have a friend. He's a doctor in Charleston and
• 3:18
  a fascinating guy who developed a good friendship, good brother
• 3:21
  and a Lord. And once in a while I go down
• 3:23
  there. He invites me to stay at his
• 3:24
  house and I do business down there.
• 3:26
  And one morning I'm getting up, having coffee there and I'm
• 3:28
  talking to his son and I see this guy, this picture of this
• 3:31
  guy on the wall, physique guys like in his early 70s.
• 3:35
  This guy's cut man. I mean, he looks like he's like
• 3:37
  a Charles Atlas of like 73 or whatever.
• 3:40
  And he, his claim to fame, doctor life is that you can have
• 3:44
  perpetual youthful longevity. If you deal with these youth
• 3:50
  hormones, you know, you get shot up.
• 3:52
  He's the guru doctor of all the Hollywood stars, all the glamour
• 3:57
  people, right? And so I'm like, looking at this
• 3:59
  picture, I'm thinking, what's the connection here with my
• 4:01
  Christian friend? Why would he have the picture of
• 4:02
  this guy on the wall? Is he like, is he into this?
• 4:05
  Is this what? And so I asked his grand.
• 4:07
  I asked his son, who is that guy?
• 4:08
  This is my grandfather. So David wakes up.
• 4:11
  I said, man, I read about that guy.
• 4:12
  I mean, what's he into? He says, Clark, my dad's he's
• 4:15
  he's a great guy, but he's like totally out of it because he
• 4:18
  thinks that he can conquer death.
• 4:21
  And in other words, instead of the body dying, it can be
• 4:25
  restored through all these metabolic changes.
• 4:29
  You know, And I said to him, I said, what's interesting, maybe,
• 4:32
  you know, for a few years, but his does he realize that
• 4:35
  eventually this isn't going to work?
• 4:36
  I mean, eventually he's going to die.
• 4:38
  I mean, it's appointed unto me and wants to die.
• 4:40
  And after this is judgment. And so the society is always
• 4:44
  trying to like, push away the inevitable.
• 4:46
  The church should be the most clear, peaceful place for us to
• 4:54
  learn about our destiny, right? What's in store for all of us
• 5:00
  now? The idea of Christianity being
• 5:04
  reconciled with death. You know God hates death.
• 5:07
  It wasn't his intention to have death.
• 5:10
  When he created us in the garden, He created us to live
• 5:13
  forever. We're the ones that changed the
• 5:16
  setup, didn't we? We took it upon ourselves to
• 5:20
  take life in our own hands, and sin and the wages of sin is
• 5:25
  death. Christ is our life and death,
• 5:30
  Christianity proclaiming it to be namely an enemy to be
• 5:34
  destroyed and not a mystery to be explained.
• 5:39
  The scriptures teach about death as being abnormal.
• 5:43
  It's not God's plan, is it? If it was his plan, there would
• 5:47
  be no resurrection. God wouldn't have come in the
• 5:51
  flesh to die and to go through what He went through for you and
• 5:55
  I if death was his plan. He's done everything he could
• 6:01
  for you and me to sustain us in eternity.
• 6:05
  Turn to John Chapter 11. This is Jesus own experience of
• 6:10
  death with Lazarus. See how he feels about it.
• 6:14
  He's God in the flesh, fully God, fully man.
• 6:17
  John Chapter 11, verse 28. And when she had said these
• 6:22
  things, she went her way, and secretly called Mary her sister,
• 6:25
  saying, The teacher's come and is calling to you.
• 6:28
  As soon as she heard, she quickly arose and came to him.
• 6:31
  Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in place where
• 6:36
  Martha met him. And then the Jews who were with
• 6:39
  her in the house and comforting her, when they saw that Mary
• 6:42
  Rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, She's
• 6:45
  going to the tomb to weep there. And then when Mary came where
• 6:49
  Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him,
• 6:53
  Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
• 6:56
  Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping and the Jews who came
• 7:00
  with her weeping, he groaned in the Spirit and he was troubled.
• 7:04
  And he said, Where have you laid him?
• 7:06
  And they said to him, Lord, come and see.
• 7:09
  Verse 35, Jesus wept. Jesus didn't say, don't worry,
• 7:14
  he's in a better place, everything's OK.
• 7:19
  Death is the final enemy, isn't it?
• 7:22
  God hates death, what it does to people, what it does to
• 7:26
  families, what it does to human existence.
• 7:31
  And the Jews said, see how he loved him.
• 7:34
  And some of them said, could not this man who opened the eyes of
• 7:37
  the blind also have kept this man from dying?
• 7:42
  Then Jesus again, groaning in himself, came to the tomb.
• 7:45
  You know the darkness of death, the horror of separation of
• 7:50
  family and loved ones, the waiting of the Conqueror who had
• 7:56
  not yet gone into Hades to set the captives free.
• 7:59
  This is pre death burial and resurrection that is occurring
• 8:04
  here and Jesus senses obviously the extreme intenseness of the
• 8:09
  demonic spirits and the hatred of the devil and all his demons
• 8:14
  and dark powers. And Jesus groans in himself and
• 8:18
  he comes to the tomb. It was a cave, a stone lay
• 8:21
  against it. And Jesus said, take away the
• 8:23
  stone. Martha, the sister of him who
• 8:25
  was dead, said to him, Lord, by this time there is a stench, for
• 8:28
  he has been dead for days. Jesus said to her, Did I not say
• 8:32
  to you that if you would believe, you would see the glory
• 8:35
  of God? And then they took away the
• 8:37
  stone from the place where the dead man was lying.
• 8:40
  And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, Father, I thank you that
• 8:43
  you have heard me, and I know that you always hear me.
• 8:46
  But because of the people who are standing by, I said this now
• 8:50
  that they may believe you sent me.
• 8:52
  Now when he said these things, he cried with a loud voice.
• 8:56
  Lazarus come forth and he who had died came outbound hand and
• 9:01
  foot with grave clothes, and his face was wrapped in a cloth.
• 9:05
  And Jesus said to them, lose him and let him go.
• 9:11
  Jesus wept. He doesn't again say, hey,
• 9:14
  everything's OK, he's in heaven, everything's well.
• 9:18
  He's gone from this difficult life, He's in a better place.
• 9:21
  Have you ever found yourself saying that kind of stuff?
• 9:24
  We have to see death as God sees it.
• 9:27
  Now Paul tells us to be absent the bodies, to be present with
• 9:30
  the Lord. But keep in mind the final
• 9:32
  resurrection has not occurred yet.
• 9:35
  You know, we understand today the Lord in some small degree,
• 9:39
  don't we? All of us?
• 9:40
  We have some insight of His love, His grace, and His mercy.
• 9:42
  Do we know it all? I mean, my understanding of
• 9:45
  God's love and His grace is so small compared to the way it
• 9:49
  really is because I can't grasp it in my fallen human condition.
• 9:53
  I know God's good. He loves, He's merciful, He's
• 9:56
  forgiving, but I don't know him today like I will know him one
• 10:01
  day. When Jesus said through Paul, I
• 10:04
  hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor entered into the heart of
• 10:08
  man the things that God has prepared for those who love him.
• 10:12
  None of us can comprehend that yet, can we?
• 10:14
  We get, we're looking through a glass darkly, Paul said in First
• 10:17
  Corinthians 13. We're seeing a little bit right
• 10:19
  now, but one day the Bible said we will see him face to face,
• 10:23
  for we shall see him as he is, and we will become like him.
• 10:29
  Now when we think of Christ, it tells us in the Word that he was
• 10:34
  crucified and he was buried. He suffered.
• 10:37
  He's a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief.
• 10:39
  Christ lived a life of constant suffering for your sake and
• 10:44
  mine. He had joy, He had pleasure, he
• 10:48
  loved the children, he obviously loved communing with the Father,
• 10:52
  because every chance he got, he was alone with his Heavenly
• 10:55
  Father, praying and glorifying, worshiping him.
• 10:59
  But he was a man of extreme sorrow and grief, it says.
• 11:04
  He looks out over the city of Jerusalem.
• 11:06
  He looks out today in the city of southwest Greensburg.
• 11:09
  He looks into your homes, your neighborhoods, your families,
• 11:11
  this country, this world. And he still is broken.
• 11:14
  His heart is grieving because he sees the majority of people on
• 11:17
  the earth as sheep without a shepherd.
• 11:20
  He sees people trying to live life without him.
• 11:24
  And so the suffering and death is interwoven in the human
• 11:27
  experience. And the presence of 1 implies
• 11:32
  the presence of the other. Suffering and death are entwined
• 11:37
  together in Christ. When he died on the cross, his
• 11:40
  suffering wasn't removed, was it?
• 11:43
  He experienced extreme agony and pain and sorrow.
• 11:48
  Everybody abandoned him and forsook him for the most point
• 11:51
  except for his mother and John. He died alone, even to the point
• 11:58
  that he allowed himself to be separated in the greatest
• 12:02
  mystery of all. When he said, My God, my God,
• 12:06
  why have you forsaken me? He understood in a brief second
• 12:13
  what you and I deal with every day.
• 12:16
  If we don't have God in our lives, Can you imagine never,
• 12:21
  ever being disconnected from the reality of the Trinity, Father,
• 12:26
  Son, and Holy Spirit? But He became one of us, and for
• 12:28
  that brief second when He took upon Himself our sin, to atone
• 12:32
  and pay the price for all our sin, He knew what sin did.
• 12:36
  It cut us off from our Creator. And yet in His suffering He
• 12:41
  transformed death into victory, and His death in a cross becomes
• 12:48
  our victory. Without His death, there's no
• 12:51
  way into the Kingdom, is there? There's no hope for anybody
• 12:56
  apart from his death. And so we enter into the Kingdom
• 13:00
  because of what Christ has done, and that's where we receive our
• 13:04
  true healing. Our final victory is one day,
• 13:09
  the resurrection of the dead. And when you think about these
• 13:14
  things, you have to put them in the context of us being
• 13:17
  reconciled first to God before we can be resurrected in
• 13:21
  immortality and incorruption. Every one of us have to come
• 13:26
  first to God in repentance. We have to come and confess our
• 13:32
  sins to Him. We have to repent.
• 13:36
  The Bible tells us if we confess our sins, He's faithful and just
• 13:40
  to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all
• 13:42
  unrighteousness. So we ask God to forgive us, and
• 13:46
  he's faithful, isn't He to forgive us?
• 13:50
  And then we need to be reconciled with one another as
• 13:54
  human beings where there's strife and where there's angst
• 13:59
  and where there's unforgiveness and bitterness for all the
• 14:02
  things we've been through in our lives that other people maybe
• 14:05
  have caused us or we've caused them.
• 14:07
  Jesus tells us in the Lord's Prayer when we pray, forgive us
• 14:11
  our trespasses as we forgive one another, right?
• 14:15
  Later on, Jesus says if you don't forgive others their
• 14:18
  trespasses, neither will your heavenly Father forgive you of
• 14:22
  yours. So all this reconciliation, all
• 14:27
  this truth of resurrection comes out of our lives being
• 14:33
  sacrificed for the sake of others.
• 14:37
  Jesus is the perfect example of forgiving us, isn't he?
• 14:42
  And everything we did to him, he never once said, hey, I'll
• 14:46
  forgive these people, but no way am I forgiving them.
• 14:49
  They're just like, they hurt me too much.
• 14:51
  They did too much evil. They just, they're worthless.
• 14:53
  No, God sees value and worth in every human being.
• 14:57
  And he died for our sins. And so how can I, how can you
• 15:04
  not be willing to forgive other people for their offenses?
• 15:08
  When someone's on their deathbed and you have a chance to
• 15:11
  minister to them, you want to lead them in the Lord's Prayer
• 15:15
  and remind them of God's mercy, right, and his forgiveness.
• 15:19
  And you also want to ask that person to forgive you and you to
• 15:24
  forgive them and thank them for their lives and tell them you
• 15:28
  love them and then tell them goodbye.
• 15:32
  Jesus says to the guy down by the pool, Besazia Besavia.
• 15:38
  He was lame. And Jesus asked him, do you want
• 15:40
  to be made well? That's the ultimate plan of God,
• 15:43
  Wellness for every one of us, spiritual, physical, emotional,
• 15:49
  psychological wholeness throughout all eternity.
• 15:52
  And one day it will come to pass.
• 15:55
  He's restoring us right now to the likeness we had before the
• 15:59
  fall. I'm becoming a little bit more
• 16:01
  like Jesus every day. And you are too, if you're a
• 16:03
  Christian. We still got a lot of flaws, a
• 16:06
  lot of things. None of us are perfect, but
• 16:08
  we're being conformed to the image of His Son.
• 16:10
  That's what thrills me when I can look back and think about
• 16:13
  the way I used to be. And I'm certainly not what I
• 16:15
  want to be yet, but I can look back and say, thank God, I'm not
• 16:18
  like that anymore. And I can't take any credit for
• 16:20
  it, and you can't either. All you can say is God's grace,
• 16:23
  right? His mercy, the power of his Holy
• 16:25
  Spirit. There's a testimony of this guy
• 16:28
  back in the 11th century. He was a very sick man from his
• 16:32
  youth, but he had this heart. He just wanted to love God and
• 16:35
  to serve him at a young age and radically be a disciple of Jesus
• 16:39
  Christ. So they took him to this place.
• 16:41
  It was known for healing and he stayed there until his death
• 16:46
  actually. But what he prayed for when he
• 16:49
  was there, he prayed more to be content in his sickness and for
• 16:52
  health. Isn't that an interesting
• 16:53
  perspective? Sort of like Jesus.
• 16:57
  Not my will, but your will be done.
• 16:59
  One night angels appeared to him.
• 17:01
  You ever believe angels can appear all through the
• 17:03
  scripture? I remember when my uncle died.
• 17:06
  He was in Torrance Mental Hospital and he spent most of
• 17:10
  his life there with schizophrenia.
• 17:12
  He had a simple faith in Jesus and he'd always tell us.
• 17:15
  Every time we left his presence, he'd say tell Melanie and
• 17:19
  Jessica. He'd tell me my kids tell them I
• 17:21
  love them with my heart, soul and conscience and I would I was
• 17:27
  with him when he was dying of Melanoma.
• 17:30
  My mom and dad went out to take a break for a few moments and he
• 17:34
  was laying there belabored breathing very difficult.
• 17:36
  And he's he's getting ready to pass and he had no strength to
• 17:41
  so weak. And he's laying there I'll never
• 17:43
  forget on the bed and all of a sudden I see him get up like sit
• 17:47
  straight up in the bed. And first of all, it's a miracle
• 17:50
  because the guy had like no strength.
• 17:51
  He put his arms out and he had to smile on his face.
• 17:55
  And I believe that he saw the angels coming for him and he
• 17:59
  just laid back down, stop breathing.
• 18:02
  And that was it. So one night the angels appear
• 18:05
  to this man telling him he would be sick until his death, but
• 18:11
  would be healed at that very moment of his death.
• 18:14
  So he lay sick for 20 years. And yet this man worked many
• 18:18
  wonders in his life for others. During his life of suffering,
• 18:21
  people would come to him because he was a very deep Christian.
• 18:24
  He would pray, give them counsel.
• 18:25
  People would get healed. I mean, that's a wonderful, true
• 18:29
  servant of God. And I think about the testimony
• 18:32
  of this man again, reminds me of Jesus, a man of sorrows,
• 18:36
  acquainted with grief. And just at the time of his
• 18:38
  death, he got up from his bed completely healed.
• 18:44
  He prepared his grave and he entered into his rest in the
• 18:48
  Lord. To be healed of God of our sins,
• 18:51
  we must first acknowledge that we have sins before we can made
• 18:56
  be made whole. You got three groups of people
• 18:59
  here today. You have believers, unbelievers
• 19:01
  and pretenders and only God knows our hearts.
• 19:05
  But for all of us today, no matter for believers,
• 19:07
  unbelievers, or pretenders, we need to always go back to the
• 19:11
  basics of what God asked us to do, and that's to repent.
• 19:17
  I don't repent anymore to get saved.
• 19:20
  I repent now to stay close to the Lord.
• 19:24
  But if you're lost today and you've never come to Christ,
• 19:27
  your first act of repentance would be to admit your need of
• 19:32
  Christ and that you're a Sinner and that you want him to make
• 19:34
  you whole. For Jesus is the healer.
• 19:38
  He said, you will know the truth and the truth shall make you
• 19:41
  free. And we can't receive God's
• 19:44
  forgiveness until we realize our utter helplessness to change our
• 19:50
  hearts apart from God's mercy and grace.
• 19:52
  Sometimes Cindy and I'll sit and talk and maybe we're working
• 19:55
  through something on our marriage and, and one of us will
• 19:59
  will say something like, well, I'm trying, but I'm having a
• 20:01
  hard time letting this go. You ever say that to each other?
• 20:06
  And we look at each other and she'll remind me or I'll remind
• 20:09
  her. I'll say well.
• 20:11
  We can try until doomsday. We can't change our hearts, only
• 20:15
  God can. We have a willingness to change
• 20:19
  and then we ask God to do and us what we can't do for ourselves,
• 20:21
  right? And God's faithful to do that.
• 20:27
  So as we conclude here today, just some practical things that
• 20:30
  give some thought to the essential element of healing our
• 20:34
  own lives today. First of all, we're to give
• 20:37
  glory and worship to God on all things.
• 20:39
  Maybe today there's something in your life you're not happy
• 20:42
  about, you're not thankful for, you're bitter, you're upset,
• 20:45
  you're like angry, you're just, maybe it's something you've
• 20:48
  carried around for years in your life.
• 20:51
  But I can't think of a better place to give glory and worship
• 20:54
  to God. Our relationships with God and
• 20:58
  our neighbors have to be made right.
• 21:01
  You know, whatever's going on in your hearts with people,
• 21:03
  situations, make it right, guys. Go to the people and let them
• 21:07
  know you forgive them. You're not going to hold any
• 21:10
  grudge. You're not going to be bitter.
• 21:12
  This, this, let it go. And as Jesus said, love one
• 21:16
  another as I've loved you. And this is a powerful thought.
• 21:21
  When Jesus became one of us, God Incarnate in the incarnation, it
• 21:28
  is only because Christ assumed our entire nature except for our
• 21:33
  sin nature and he entered into death itself that we can be
• 21:37
  healed. Because he died and resurrected,
• 21:40
  He overcame death. The acceptance of our own death
• 21:44
  and repentance can be our cure and our own healing cause.
• 21:49
  Life comes out of death, death to self.
• 21:52
  And Jesus says, if anyone of you will follow me, let him deny
• 21:56
  himself and take up his cross daily and follow me every
• 22:01
  Sunday. We celebrate the Lord's death,
• 22:03
  don't we? Maybe you come here and you
• 22:05
  think that's sort of odd. I go to some churches, they
• 22:07
  might do it once a month or once a quarter, or, you know, why do
• 22:10
  we do this every week? The early church did it every
• 22:13
  week. Every time they gathered
• 22:14
  together, they broke bread. The signal signifying the
• 22:19
  remembrance of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus
• 22:21
  Christ. And I can't think of a greater
• 22:23
  thing to do to honor our Lord when he says, as often as you do
• 22:27
  this right, eat the bread and drink the cup, you do this in
• 22:30
  remembrance of me. Then I, John, saw the holy city,
• 22:34
  New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as
• 22:37
  a bride adorn for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from
• 22:41
  heaven saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men,
• 22:44
  and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and
• 22:48
  God himself will be with them and be their God, and God will
• 22:52
  wipe away every tear from their eyes.
• 22:55
  Are you looking forward to that? There shall be no more death,
• 23:00
  nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for
• 23:06
  the former things have passed away.
• 23:09
  Then he who sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things
• 23:12
  new. And he said to me, write, for
• 23:15
  these words are true and faithful.
• 23:17
  And he said to me, It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega,
• 23:20
  the beginning and the end. I will give of the fountain of
• 23:23
  the water of life freely to him who thirst.
• 23:27
  He who overcome shall inherit all things, and I will be his
• 23:31
  God, and he shall be my son. But the cowardly, the
• 23:35
  unbelieving, the abominable murderers, sexually immoral,
• 23:39
  sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in
• 23:42
  the lake, which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the
• 23:46
  second death. We are digging into the Book of
• 23:51
  Revelation here on Living Waters of Grace.
• 23:53
  Pastor Clark is tackling this challenging book as we try to
• 23:57
  discern the messages that are within its pages.
• 24:01
  There's so much imagery, and at times you're not always sure
• 24:05
  what's literal and what's metaphorical.
• 24:07
  At one point, there's a reference to an adulterous woman
• 24:11
  riding on a beast. And as someone else mentioned,
• 24:14
  at one point, it almost sounds like a rodeo from hell.
• 24:18
  And in actuality, it kind of is. You learn about the downfall and
• 24:23
  demise of a sinful and rebellious world, falling down
• 24:27
  in worship to someone who is the anti hero, the enemy, Satan
• 24:33
  working his insidious ways into the minds of fallen people.
• 24:38
  It's sad and it's heartbreaking, but it's a classic story of good
• 24:43
  versus evil. Thankfully, we know how this
• 24:46
  story ends. Jesus wins, Jesus reigns, and
• 24:52
  evil is conquered once and for all.
• 24:56
  We pray and trust you've received Jesus as your Savior.
• 25:01
  But if you haven't, don't wait until the events and revelation
• 25:04
  become what's happening on the streets.
• 25:07
  None of us wants you to be there at that time.
• 25:11
  Instead, we'd love for you to be with us in heaven as we
• 25:15
  celebrate the marriage supper with Jesus as his bridegroom.
• 25:21
  To get a better understanding of where we are in the Book of
• 25:24
  Revelation, to listen to any messages before or after this
• 25:28
  one, you can find them at our website,
• 25:31
  calvarychapelonline.com. That's it for today's edition,
• 25:37
  but we hope you'll want to hear Pastor Clark teach more from the
• 25:40
  Book of Revelation. It can be exciting to think
• 25:44
  about the future for believers, but it can feel a bit harrowing
• 25:48
  for those who don't believe. Come here more next time on
• 25:51
  Living Waters of Grace.
