Sermon Outline

Pastor Johnston presented the first two points of this message in the morning service and the last point in the evening.

Intro-- God gave the prophet Isaiah a vision of the coming judgment upon Babylon. God has given us New Testament prophecies about the judgments coming upon the world in the last days. Couched in these verses are 3 ways of getting peoples attention. We should use these 3 ways to warn people of the divine judgement for sin, and direct them to repentance, faith, and God's mercy.

Isaiah 13: 1-2

    • Matthew 5: 21-48 shows 6 Areas to Shine for our Savior:
