About this sermon
When the trumpets of Revelation sound, is God announcing the end of the world... or is He echoing something He already did three thousand years ago? Many Christians are taught that Revelation 8 and 9 describe future asteroid strikes and modern military helicopters. But Apostle John wasn't inventing modern science fiction—he was drawing directly from a story his audience knew by heart: the Plagues of Egypt in Exodus. Because so many today don't know the Old Testament well enough, we miss the vital blueprint behind these judgments. In this episode of Get into the Word, Pastor Robby breaks down why the trumpets sound, why God judges sin, and how events like the blasphemous mock ceremony at the Paris Olympics serve as a real-time picture of human depravity and spiritual warfare. More importantly, you'll discover the single core principle that determines whether judgment falls on you or passes over you. 📖 Want to go deeper on the Jewish roots of Jesus?
