Sermon Overview
Based on Acts 17:31, Reidhead warns that God has "fixed a day" in which He will judge the world in righteousness. He asserts that the resurrection of Jesus is God's "proof" to all men that this judgment is coming. The sermon is an urgent appeal to "flee the wrath to come" by taking refuge in the Savior before the "Appointed Day" arrives.
Key Principles
The Appointment: Live with the sobering awareness that your meeting with the Judge is a fixed historical event.
Standard of Judgment:Realize that "goodness" is not the standard; only the Righteousness of Christ will pass the test.
Public Notice: Look to the Resurrection as the proof that God has legally authorized Jesus to judge the world.
Universal Account:Acknowledge that you are personally accountable to God for every thought and deed.
Repentance as Safe Harbor: Flee into the "Refuge" of Christ’s Lordship immediately; outside of Him, there is no safety.
Strange Work/Delight:Realize that while God must judge, His "delight" is in showing mercy to the repentant.
Living in Light of "Day": Evaluate every purchase, word, and plan by how it will look on the day of final audit.
Sheep and Goats:Ensure your faith is "living" by checking your sacrificial love for the "least of these."
