    "You have been weighed in the balances and found wanting..." It's such a familiar phrase, even Johnny Cash turned it into a hit, but what does it mean for us as Christians today? In these lesson we'll explore that and much more.

    Babylon, like Israel, was in danger of judgment and being taken by a foreign nation. This message views the reason why a country falls from God’s grace, causing Him to lift His hedge of protection.

    In our last two messages from this series, I asked us to consider this important question: “What would we, as believers, do if our country ever came under siege by a foreign nation that did not believe in God or His Son, Jesus Christ?” In the most recent of our previous messages, we learned some ...read more
