Hold your breath. In our study of Revelation 8, we learn that in between the sixth and seventh seal, the Lord Jesus Christ causes all of heaven, hell, and earth to stand still. There is silence in heaven for about half an hour. God’s patience is not exhausted—He still gives the opportunity for repentance. But then judgement that clearly only God could orchestrate. And it’s just the beginning … the worst is yet to come. Dr. J. Vernon McGee, our teacher, walks us right into it.
Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
