God used the faithful witness of ordinary people who simply refused to let go of his Word. That same calling belongs to us today. As we wait for Christ&#8217;s return to bring us home to heaven, Jesus does not promise an easy road. But he does promise his Spirit, his presence, and the confidence that our lives are secure in his hands as we faithfully witness to him.\n<strong><br \/>\nReady For Jesus <\/strong><br \/>\nWaiting can make us weary. As the days pass and our Savior&#8217;s return seem delayed, it&#8217;s easy for our hearts to become distracted, comfortable in our world, and spiritually drowsy. Jesus calls us to live a life of expectant hope, keeping our eyes fixed on our Bridegroom who is certainly coming and will one day welcome us into the eternal joy of the marriage feast of the Lamb.\n<strong><br \/>\nWithout Fear<\/strong><br \/>\nFor many people, the thought of Judgment Day brings anxiety and uncertainty. Have I done enough? Does God love me? For those who belong to Christ, the final judgment is not a day to dread. It is the day every promise of God is perfectly fulfilled, every wrong is made right, and what we have been waiting for is revealed in all its bliss. As we wait for that day, we do so with confidence knowing that the Judge is our Savior who has bled and died for us and already secured our verdict of &#8220;Not guilty.&#8221;\n<strong><br \/>\nBecause Your King Reigns<\/strong><br \/>\nThe King we worship is unlike any other. Instead of demanding our loyalty, he gave his life for those who rejected him. He exchanged his holiness for our sin and his death for our life. As we wait for his return holding on to Jesus (week 1), ready for Jesus (week 2), and without fear (week 3), today we learn the why: We can witness, watch, and face judgment without fear because our King first suffered and died for us. He first wore a crown of thorns so we could be given a crown of glory from the King who reigns on heaven&#8217;s throne.\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current Sermon Series Waiting&#8230; What&#8217;s the Big Idea?
