The Day of the Lord, pt. 1

In this sermon, Pastor Steve Baker focuses on the second coming of Jesus Christ, specifically examining the difference between "the day of Christ" and "the day of the Lord." Pastor Steve explains that Christ's return occurs in two stages: first, the rapture of the church when believers are caught up to meet the Lord in the air, and second, the revelation of Christ as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Between these two events lies a seven-year tribulation period marked by God's judgment and wrath upon the earth. This sermon emphasizes the urgency of salvation, warning that those who are not saved will face the horrific events of the tribulation period. Through extensive Old and New Testament scripture, the message paints a sobering picture of God's coming judgment while offering hope and assurance to believers that they will be spared from this terrible time.
