Readers: Danita O'Loughlin & Marios Kyriakou Preacher: Jonathan Smith Music: Josh Henessey & Jo Turok Between the 6th trumpet (Revelation 9:13-21) and the seventh (Revelation 11:15-18), John provides another interlude. This section dramtises God's patient delay in inflicting his full and final wrath, and it assures believers that God will protect how own through the coming traumas (Adapted from ESV Study Bible. Crossway 2008). So now that the scroll's seals have been broken by the Lamb, the will of God is revealed, and we see how he is going to bring his kingdom to earth.

Readers: Mel & James Truong Preacher: Jonathan Smith Music: Leslie Edis In Exodus, God sent plagues against Pharaoh and his people to cause them to repent (of their unjust enslavement of the Israelites). With echoes of these events, and the same purpose, God judges humanity. Each of the judgements in Revelation Chapters 8 and 9 seem to be designed to bring unbelievers to repentance, yet there are many who still do not choose to do so.

Preacher: Jonathan Smith Reader: John Hargrave Today Pastor Jonathan examines two world views where he compares a view of scarcity against a view of abundance. Our nature is to always think that we're lacking something, that our lives would be fulfilled if we had the "next great thing", whereas, the abundance world view shows us that God has provided abundantly for our needs. We just need to thank him for what he's provided to us. Red Door is an Anglican Church in Melbourne, Australia. We exist to be a community of people helping people make all of life all about Jesus.
