The following 12 minute sermon excerpt by Leonard Ravenhill opens with chaotic imagery from our 21st century world; after a moment or two he begins to preach on the book of Revelation: harvest time; judgment and other solemn topics that must be considered in the Christian life; but that are so often neglected by mainstream Christian pulpits.
I first heard of pastor Ravenhill via pastor Paul Washer’s sermons; Washer apparently thinks very highly of him.
The above video was posted on YouTube by, Except Ye Repent Ministries.
Pastor Ravenhill could have cited the following text as well in his sermon; or many other texts from the 4 gospels:
Mat 25:31 “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit upon His glorious throne.
Mat 25:32 All the nations will be gathered in His presence, and He will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
Mat 25:33 He will place the sheep at His right hand and the goats at His left.
Mat 25:34 “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world.
