Baptist Expositor

Exposition of the 5th and 6th seal judgment of Revelation 6 . Study of events that will take place in the Great Tribulation.

Exposition of the first four seal judgments that will be unleashed on the world in the tribulation period.

Revelation 5 contains one of the most glorious scenes of heavenly worship found in Scripture. The Lord Jesus Christ is the central focus of worship in this chapter and the great theme is that of Redemption.

The key word in chapter four is 'throne', appearing 12 times. We get a glimpse of God Almighty ruling and reigning on His throne, surrounded by adoration and worship the likes of which we have never imagined.

In this sermon we present 10 Biblical reasons why we believe in a Pre-Tribulation rapture of the church.

In Revelation 4:1 , John is caught up into heaven, picturing the rapture of the church. In this sermon we look at key passages of Scripture on the Rapture to get a detailed Bible picture of this tremendous event in Bible prophecy.

Exposition of Christ's letter to the church of Laodicea. Powerful challenge concerning the sin of lukewarmness. Very relevant to the 21st century church.

Exposition of Christ's letter to the church at Philadelphia. This letter contains one of the clearest verses in the N.T. that teaches a Pre-Tribulation rapture ( Rev. 3:10 ).

Sardis was a church that had a good reputation but lacked spiritual life and vitality. It presents a powerful challenge to churches that are living off past glory but in reality are devoid of spiritual power.

Prayer is as vital to the Christian soldier in battle as any other piece of armour. In fact, it is arguably the key piece of the soldier's armour, for without it the other pieces are largely powerless. In this message, we study this most powerful weapon in the Christian's arsenal.

This sermon warns believers against the spiritual dangers of apostasy, specifically highlighting the deceptive influence of compromised older leaders. Using the narrative of 1 Kings 13 , the preacher contrasts a faithful young man of God with an old prophet who abandons biblical truth for comfort and deception. The message emphasizes that neutrality in the face of error is dangerous and that even...

We come now to the concluding doxology in Jude. These verses highlight another vital principle for Christian living amid apostasy – worship! Jude concludes by turning our eyes heavenward to our Indescribable, Almighty God who is able to preserve and keep us. Remember that these words shine as a beam of pure light against the dark backdrop of apostates and their vile teachings and practices.

These verses describe passionate, fervent Evangelism. The apostasy of the hour does not call for reducing our efforts in Evangelism. It calls for us to increase our efforts in Evangelism! The lateness of the hour should produce a sense of urgency in the believer's heart.

We are now in the second major section of the Epistle of Jude. The whole Epistle is an exhortation to believers (see v. 3), but Jude now turns his attention from describing and denouncing the apostates to exhorting believers on how they are to live in the midst of apostasy. These verses show the believer's life in sharp contrast to the apostates warned of in the first section of the book. To survi...

In a final blow to the Apostate teachers, Jude now brings two prophetic witnesses to bear, drawing on the prophetic predictions of Enoch (O.T.) and the Apostles (N.T.). At the end of each of these, Jude adds his own application to the present-day apostates (See Vs. 16 & 19).

The severity of the language employed by the Holy Ghost increases in this section. Jude's fiery denunciation of the apostates gets even fierier! Note the word 'woe'. To further teach his readers concerning the character of these evil apostates, Jude employs eight illustrations. Three of these are again drawn from the Old Testament, and the remaining five are drawn from the realm of nature.

Jude now draws a parallel between historical examples of apostasy and the present apostates he is exposing. Apostates, whether past or present, share the same evil attributes.

Jude now highlights three historical examples of apostates. Two main themes run through these examples: God will judge apostates. Apostates, whether past or present, possess the same evil characteristics (See Vs. 8)

Exposition of Jude verses 3–4 — In these pivotal verses, Jude fires his opening salvo against apostasy, urgently calling believers to earnestly contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints. He exposes the danger of false teachers who have secretly infiltrated the church, perverting God's grace and denying the Lord Jesus Christ. This passage lays the foundation for Jude's...

Bible conference 2026. Introduction to the Epistle of Jude. In this introductory message on the Book of Jude, we explore the historical background, purpose, and central theme of this powerful epistle: the urgent call to "earnestly contend for the faith" in an age of growing apostasy. We examine Jude's humble identity as Christ's servant, the believer's secure position as sanctified, preserved, and...

This letter is the longest of the seven, written to the church in the smallest town. Central to the problems of this church was a false teacher, a seductive woman, labelled 'Jezebel' by Christ. Like Pergamos, this church was under threat of being destroyed from within. This sermon examines Christ's letter to Thyatira under 5 headings.

Pergamos faced two significant threats. There was the threat without with the persecution coming from the Roman Empire but there was also the threat from within with false doctrine making inroads. This letter makes it clear that Pergamos was in far greater danger from the threat within than the threat from without. A powerful challenge concerning the need for the church to adopt Christ's attitude...

Exposition of Christ's letter to Smyrna, the suffering church. Christ has no word of rebuke for this model church. Some encouraging and challenging lessons for believers going through trials and tests.

We now enter the second section of the Book according to the outline in chapter 1:19 – "the things which are" which is Christ's letters to the seven churches. Exposition of Christ's letter to the church of Ephesus.

Survey of the seven letters to the seven churches from the prophetic viewpoint.
