God's Great Day of Wrath (Revelation 6:9–11) John MacArthur

Summary

In this sermon, the pastor explores the biblical concept of divine vengeance, focusing on Revelation chapter 6 and the fifth seal, which depicts martyred souls crying out for God's justice. Using numerous scriptural references from the Old Testament, the sermon argues that vengeance is a legitimate and essential aspect of God's nature, revealing His holiness, righteousness, and justice during the prophesied seven-year tribulation period. While emphasizing God's right to execute judgment, the pastor also advocates for maintaining a balanced approach of showing compassion and love toward sinners, ultimately trusting in God's perfect timing and ultimate vindication.
