Disaster often catches people off guard. The eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The bombing of Pearl Harbor. The flooding from Hurricane Katrina. Jesus warns that in the times leading up to his return, there will be false teachers, wars, and all kinds of disasters. By the time of Martin Luther 500 years ago, most of Christianity was enveloped in false teaching. Ottoman armies were advancing toward Europe. Plague could wipe out over half a village, and famines were devastating. But just as Jesus promised, the gospel would be preached. Jesus does not want us to be caught off-guard. So today, we pay attention to his Reformation Warning. Our sermon is from Jeremiah 18.
