Listen "The Lord Comes Down"
Episode Synopsis
The sermon centers on the prophetic message of Micah, emphasizing that God's judgment, though directed at both Samaria and Jerusalem, ultimately calls all people—especially God's people—to repentance and faith. Rooted in the historical context of the divided monarchy and the looming threat of Assyria, Micah's words reveal how God uses cosmic imagery not merely to threaten destruction, but to expose the spiritual complacency of Judah, which trusted in the temple and its rituals rather than in God's holiness. The passage underscores that judgment begins with the household of God, challenging believers to examine their own hearts, recognize their sin, and turn from false security to genuine faith in Christ. Though the message is one of divine wrath, it points to the ultimate hope found in Jesus, who bore the judgment meant for sinners, offering eternal life to all who hear and believe. The sermon concludes with a call to respond in faith, trusting in Christ's atonement and looking forward to His return with confidence.
