The Church in Elk Rapia
"Day of the Lord"

Picture

Due to a computer crash we were unable to record the sermon this week. We are sorry for any inconveniences this may cause. We hope to have next weeks sermon up as normal.

Outline

The apostle Paul continues to instruct and encourage the new church by now addressing another prophetic issue. because of trails that some were experiencing because of their new-found faith they were wondering if they had missed what Paul had taught earlier. Paul assured they had not missed the "catching up" of the church and now addresses what they will miss in God's prophetic calendar.
1. The Change of Events
        A) Hope to Judgement
             I. Indicates that the Day of the Lord is a different subject from the Rapture of the Church
        B) People to Times
             I. "Times & Seasons" - found 3 times in the bible & refers primarily to God's plans for Israel

2. The Concept of the Event
         Day of the Lord:
           I. mentioned 19 times in Old Testament and 4 times in New Testament
           II. Scripture 3 times calls the Day of the Lord the "day of vengeance"

3. The Coming of the Event
   A. Thief in the night: Suddenly, Unexpectedly, Unwelcome, Harmfully - a shock to non-followers

   B. Labor of childbirth: Prophet Isaiah records - They will writhe like women in labor

4. The Characterization of the Event
           A. Peace & Safety -> being prophesied
           B. Sudden Destruction -> not destruction of being but of well being, it will come suddenly
           C. No Escape -> will not escape divine judgement

Big Idea:
The Rapture of the Church or
the Day of the Lord
