The fourth angel and the harvest

Do you believe in angels? The belief in angels is sweeping over the world these days – though the belief may differ from the Christian view of angels.

Most Adventists are familiar with the three angels in Revelation 14. The three angels of Revelation 14? There are actually six angels in Revelation 14. These last three angels are not given as much attention as the first three.

The fourth angel proclaim that the harvest is ripe. God is interested in the harvest. Not the harvest of barley or wheat, no, God is interested in the harvest of people. God is interested in people!

How can we be ready for the harvest? How can we help others be ready for the harvest?

Towards the end of this sermon there’s a powerful story of a man’s conversion: a seed planted by a little girl through a simple prayer.
