24) Overview Of The Ages To Come

Summary: This sermon explores the prophetic timeline of God's plan, focusing on the distinction between the Day of Christ (pertaining to the Church) and the Day of the Lord (related to Israel and end-time events). Pastor Ross explains the pre-tribulation rapture of the Church, the gap between the 69th and 70th weeks of Daniel's prophecy, and how the mystery of the Church age fits into God's overall plan. He emphasizes the importance of understanding past, present, and future dispensations in God's dealings with humanity.

Chapters
Chapter 1: The Prophetic Gap and Daniel's 70 Weeks
0:00 - 15:00
An explanation of Daniel's 70 weeks prophecy and how the church age fits into the prophetic timeline.
Chapter 2: The Day of Christ and the Day of the Lord
15:00 - 30:00
A comparison of the Day of Christ for the church and the Day of the Lord for Israel.
Chapter 3: The Church's Role and the Mystery of Iniquity
30:00 - 45:00
An explanation of the church's role in restraining evil and the events following the rapture.
Chapter 4: God's Eternal Purpose and the Ages to Come
45:00 - 60:00
A reflection on God's eternal purpose and the future ages in His plan.

Key Points:
The Day of Christ begins with the rapture of the Church and includes the judgment seat of Christ.
The Day of the Lord begins in heaven with war against Satan and continues on earth through the tribulation, millennium, and the new heavens & earth.
There is likely a gap between the rapture and the start of Daniel's 70th week.
The Church (the "one new man") is currently restraining the full manifestation of the mystery of iniquity.
God's plan, including the mystery of the Church age, is according to His own purpose and pleasure.
