   Is God Still in Control? | The Lord Himself Will Come Part 4

   When the world feels chaotic, uncertain, and out of control, one question rises above the rest: Is God still in control? In Part 4 of The Lord Himself Will Come series, Pastor George Sawyer takes us into Revelation 1 and reminds us that Jesus Christ is still sovereign over history, faithful to His promises, and coming again. The book of Revelation begins with a blessing for those who read, hear, and keep its message. John’s vision reveals Jesus as the One who was, who is, and who is to come. He is alive forevermore and holds the keys of death and Hades, declaring that even when history appears uncertain, God’s authority has never been in question. Pastor Sawyer traces the steady march of God’s redemptive plan throughout Scripture, from creation and John 1, to the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, Abraham and Isaac, the Passover, Israel’s captivity, and Daniel’s prophetic timeline. Every step points to the faithfulness of God and His ability to fulfill His promises at the appointed time. Pastor Sawyer also challenges believers to remain spiritually ready for the return of Christ. Through the Parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew 25, the call is clear: stay awake, keep your oil, remain faithful, and be prepared for the Bridegroom. This message is a powerful reminder that God is still in control. His plan has not changed. His promises have not failed. And Jesus is coming again. Are you ready for His return?

   The Seven Seals & the Launch of the Tribulation | End Times Events Part 5

   What happens when the Tribulation begins? In Part 5 of Calvary’s Wednesday night End Times series, Pastor George Sawyer walks through Revelation 6 and the opening of the seven seals, connecting John’s vision to Daniel’s 70th week, the Rapture, the rise of the Antichrist, and the unfolding of God’s prophetic timeline. Pastor Sawyer explains the seven-year Tribulation as the final “week” of Daniel’s 70 weeks, divided into two distinct halves. He also teaches through the chronological structure of Revelation, showing how the seven seals, seven trumpets, and seven bowls unfold as successive judgments. At the center of Revelation 5 is the scroll sealed with seven seals, described as the title deed to the earth and representing the completion of God’s redemptive plan. The question is asked: Who is worthy to open the scroll? The answer is Jesus Christ, the Lamb who alone is worthy. From there, Revelation 6 begins to unfold. The first six seals reveal a sobering progression: the rise of the Antichrist, global warfare, famine and economic collapse, widespread death, the persecution and martyrdom of believers, and cosmic signs pointing toward divine intervention. Pastor Sawyer also connects these events with Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 24 and explains the distinction between the rider on the white horse in Revelation 6 and Jesus Christ returning on the white horse in Revelation 19. The study also looks ahead to Revelation 7, where a parenthetical passage describes those who are saved during the Tribulation, including the 144,000 Jewish evangelists, before the seventh seal introduces a striking moment of silence in heaven and prepares the way for the trumpet judgments. This message is a serious study of biblical prophecy, but it is also a reminder that God remains sovereign over history. The purpose of understanding the End Times is not to live in fear, but to live with faith, discernment, urgency, and readiness. Scriptures discussed include: Revelation 5–7, Daniel 9, Matthew 24, and related passages concerning the Rapture, Tribulation, Antichrist, and return of Christ. WATCH. LEARN. STAY READY.

   Why Do I Feel Worn Down in My Faith? | The Lord Himself Will Come Part 3

   Have you ever felt spiritually worn down? Have you wondered why staying faithful to God can feel like such a battle? In Part 3 of The Lord Himself Will Come, Pastor George Sawyer continues the series on the return of Jesus Christ, beginning with the promise of 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17: “The Lord himself will come.” Alongside the promise of Christ’s return, Scripture gives a warning about the enemy’s strategy in the last days: to wear out the saints. Drawing from Daniel 7, Pastor Sawyer explains how spiritual warfare can leave believers exhausted, discouraged, distracted, and tempted to compromise. He connects this warning to the spiritual climate of our culture, the growing confusion surrounding truth, and the biblical warnings about falling away and deceiving spirits found in passages such as 2 Thessalonians 2 and 1 Timothy 4. But the last days are also marked by an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. In Acts 2, Peter declares that God’s promise to pour out His Spirit is connected to the last days. The Church is called to stand in the middle of both the conflict and the outpouring, refusing to give in to fear or spiritual exhaustion. If you feel worn down in your faith, remember this: God knows your load. He knows your battle. He has not forgotten you. The enemy may try to wear you down, but Jesus is holding you by His love.
