Micah: Who is Like the Lord? (Micah 1:1-9)
October 26, 2025 · Dr Josh Burnham
15:47Revelation 20:12
So that each may be repaid for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. If you say, well, okay, that's just, that was happenstance. Paul was just pulling verses. He didn't really mean it. Hear the word of the Lord. From the book of Revelation, chapter 20, verse 12. John says, I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and the dead were judged according to their works.
Asking for a Friend: What Happens When We Die (Luke 23:43)

9:24Revelation 20
But the story is not finished. At Christ's return comes the final judgment of works. Scripture says in Revelation 20 verse 12, the dead are judged by what was written in the books according to what they had done. Now this does not negate the doctrine of salvation by faith. Actually, it confirms it. One scholar, Herman Bavink, noted the final judgment does not contradict justification by faith,
15:42Revelation 20
But Revelation chapter 20, 21 and 22 say that when Christ returns, he will judge the living and the dead, and he will make all things new. That there will be a new heaven and a new earth. So that tells me two things. If I were to die today, I'm…

21:29Revelation 20
Read Revelation 20, 21, and 22 later this week. Because in those passages, you will find God uniting his people under a king and in a city and with a holy people. And in Revelation, we see the son of David and the new Jerusalem bound together in the hope of every Christian. The first Jerusalem, this Jerusalem, won by a king named David after God's own heart,
Hidden Revealed: Satan Bound (Revelation 20:1-10)

4:19Revelation 20
So, again, if you have questions, jburnham at bethelnet.com, or jmitchell, he would love to answer those for you. Let's read the word of the Lord. Revelation 20. Then, this is, then I, that's the Apostle John writing. Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding the key to the abyss, and a great chain in his hand. And he sees the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan.
10:57Revelation 20
The key to reading Revelation, and I would affirm any book of the Bible, is to read Scripture in context. Read Scripture in context. Which means, first, with an eye on the surrounding chapters. So, if you're reading Revelation 20, then you need to know what Revelation 19 and 21 say. Because all of Scripture goes together. And then you need to understand what Revelation says about Revelation 20. And understand what the New Testament says about…

Psalms – 5 Steps to the Wise Life (Psalm 1:1-6)
June 5, 2022 · Dr Josh Burnham
27:42Revelation 20
Revelation 20 John says I saw a great white throne and there was one seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from his presence. Now think about that for a moment. It's as if heaven and earth say this is not good. We are out of here. It's like having people, having siblings and when one gets in trouble the other one leaves thinking

10:03Revelation 20
…will be a day in all of our lives where you too will see Jesus face to face. Where you and I will stand before the Messiah face to face. Let me read some of what this encounter might look like. It's in the book of Revelation chapter 20. Now Revelation is written by a man named John the beloved disciple. The gospel of John is written by a man named John the beloved disciple. So the same man
10:24Revelation 20
So the same man who is writing through inspiration of the Holy Spirit in John is the same one writing by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in Revelation. And listen to these words. Revelation 20. John says, I saw a great white throne and there was one who was seated on it. This is describing Jesus. Earth and heaven fled from his presence and no one was, there was no place found for them. I also saw the dead great and small

What is your response to the crucifixion? We know it doesn't end there, but we're going to end there today. What is your response to the crucifixion? Let me read how the book ends as we enter into a time of response and invitation. One day this will happen. Revelation 20, verse 11. The end of the Bible. Two chapters from the end. This is what Revelation 20 says. Listen to this. This is what John sees.

39:31Revelation 20
And in Revelation 20, the sea is filled with the dead. In Jonah, where does Jonah want the sailors to cast him in? "Throw me into the sea." Why? Because this is the heart of sinfulness. Jonah was saying, "I deserve death and I am sinful. Throw me in." It wasn't simply about suicide. He said, "I deserve the sea." And in Matthew 12, the sea becomes a portrait of Christ's descent into death.

35:19Revelation 20
And over and over and over again in Scripture, when you see wrath in God, it is a horrific day for the unrighteous. Because none of us can live through the wrath of God. There will be a day in Revelation 20, it reminds us, there will be a day where every single person in this room and every single person outside of this room will be judged. Listen to what Revelation 20 says. The Apostle John says in verse 11,

2:30Revelation 20
and perdition of ungodly men. That just as Noah's day was judged for sin, so too will our day be judged with sin. Because our God is a judge, he is a great judge. Revelations 20 reminds us this, here's the day of judgment. Then I saw, this is the apostle John, so Peter is writing about judgment, and then in Revelation, John is writing about judgment, and in Genesis, the first book of the Bible, we have judgment.
2:51Revelation 20
John is writing about judgment, and in Genesis, the first book of the Bible, we have judgment. So everything in God's word points us to our sin requires a response. Revelation 20, I saw a great white throne and him, capital him, who sat upon it, that is Jesus Christ, from whose face, listen to this, the earth and the heavens fled away, that our Savior will judge the world,
