The Sounding of the Seventh Trumpet: Sovereignty and Redemption

Eastwood Baptist Sunday Sermons

Join us as we delve into Revelation 11:15-19, exploring the profound significance of the seventh trumpet. This pivotal moment in the Book of Revelation sets in motion the final events leading to the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of His earthly millennial kingdom. As the seventh angel sounds, heaven resounds with loud voices proclaiming the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, heralding the end of Satan's reign and the beginning of Christ's eternal rule.

In this sermon, we break down the complex themes of judgment, redemption, and the ultimate triumph of God over evil. Despite the chaos and demonic influence that marks this period, we see the unwavering sovereignty of God and His plan for salvation, formed before the foundations of the world. We explore how the seventh trumpet, unlike the instantaneous last trumpet of the rapture, calls for prolonged waves of judgment upon the ungodly, leading to the eventual coronation of Jesus as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Through this study, we are reminded of God's control and sovereignty, encouraging believers to find comfort and courage in knowing that our King reigns, both now and forever. As we face the challenges and evils of our present world, this sermon offers hope and reassurance in the unfailing power and plan of our sovereign God.
