It is Not for You to Know

The above video is the livestream of the Eastland services for July 7th, 2020, but the video should start at the beginning of the sermon. Our normal camera got knocked out during a storm, and so the video is from a backup webcam.

God the Father has determined the times and seasons for every nation and has fixed their boundaries. And Jesus tells us, in Acts 1:7, that these things that God has decreed and determined, are not for us to know.

And brothers and sisters, that should be a great relief to all of us. And above all, we should not worry and fret about it.

I know these are uncertain times. We have a global pandemic where no one seems to know anything. We have mass protests and riots in the streets of our major cities. There is a general feeling of unrest, of a pot slowing reaching the boiling point.

And yet God is in control of it all. He will work everything for the praise of his glory. The church outlasted the Kingdom of Rome. The church will outlast the hegemony of the United States. And God has set the boundaries and times and seasons for both.

Are you worried that President Trump will be re-elected, and what that might mean? It is not for you to know the times and the seasons. The Most High Rules the Kingdom of Men, and gives it to whomever he pleases.

Are you worried what will happen if the Democrats take power?  It is not for you to know the times and the seasons. The Most High Rules the Kingdom of Men, and gives it to whomever he pleases.
