Afterlife

by Greg Laurie on Sep 25, 2021

Pastor Greg Laurie shares a message from Revelation 4 titled “Afterlife” at our Sunday Morning Service for Harvest At Home.

Sermon Notes

What will we be doing while we are in Heaven? We will be busy working for the Lord in Heaven. Why do we exist? To bring God glory and pleasure. Living for pleasure is one of the most unpleasurable things you can do. God created us for His own glory. You decide in this life where you will spend the afterlife

Application

What is the Rapture? “Rapture” is from the Greek word Harpzo, which means, “to take forcibly,” “to snatch,” or “caught up.” Jesus promised to keep His people from the Great Tribulation Period. The Apostle Paul spoke of the Rapture in 1 Corinthians 15:51–52

  • Enoch was raptured or caught up to Heaven.
  • Elijah did not die as he was “caught up suddenly” to Heaven.
  • Philip was “raptured” as well.
  • Jesus Christ Himself was, in effect, “raptured” to Heaven.

Long before America became a nation, a young evangelist named George Whitefield stood in open fields and town squares proclaiming a bold message: You must be born again. His preaching helped spark the First Great Awakening and shaped the spiritual foundation of a generation.

The powerful new film A Great Awakening brings this remarkable true story to life with compelling performances, rich historical detail, and a timely reminder of what God can do when people respond to the gospel.
