Outline to audio sermon given on December 20, 2006
II Thessalonians 2:1,2
Don't be troubled - verses 1,2
Apostasy - verses 3-12
But... verses
13,14
Therefore... verse 15
Now... verses 16,17
Let's look at apostasy tonight.
It isn't a fatalism attitude!
It isn't following Eyore!
It isn't always apathy!
It is apostasy!
Is it truly 'gain' (I Timothy 6:5)
or
Revelation 3:17 - increased
with goods, etc. but knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable,
and poor, and blind, and naked.
or
apostasy that leads to the Tribulation!
