THE APOCALYPSE – A MESSAGE FOR OUR TIME

Presentation transcript:

Joseph was the first victim of human trafficking. Then his whole family became slaves.

God liberated the Israelites Freedom 1.0

Jesus came and died on the very day all of his people were remembering they were once slaves. Freedom 2.0

God set us free... We set others free. Freedom 3.0

Some key verses: Isaiah 1:17; 58 Matthew 25:31ff Luke 4: I John 3

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.” Proverbs 31:8-9

Amos 5: “I hate, I despise your religious festivals; your assemblies are a stench to me. 22 Even though you bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them. Though you bring choice fellowship offerings, I will have no regard for them. 23 Away with the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps. 24 But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!
