    Take Comfort, God Will Destroy Evil Oppressors (Part 2)

    Will God’s promises hold even when such seems impossible? David Capoccia finishes his look into the book of Nahum and explains how God encouraged the people of Judah to look past the great power of the kingdom of Assyria and rest assured in God’s coming vengeance. David Capoccia discusses the second and third of the three main points of Nahum along with a few necessary closing thoughts:

    1. Remember God’s Characteristic Justice and Wrath
    2. Prepare for the Stunning Reversals of God’s Judgment
    3. See Through Man’s Useless Strength and Defenses

    Where is God’s justice in today’s world? In this sermon, David Capoccia examines the first part of the book of Nahum and the book’s historical context. David Capoccia explains that, even when it looks like the wicked prosper and continually get away with doing evil, God promises to bring justice. David Capoccia explores the first of three exhortations from Nahum as to how Christians are to take comfort in God’s promise of vengeance:

    1. Remember God’s Characteristic Justice and Wrath
    2. Prepare for the Stunning Reversals of God’s Judgment
    3. See Through Man’s Useless Strength and Defenses

    This week in Sunday school, we’re looking at the book of Nahum and God’s prophecy against Assyria. What exactly did God announce to Assyria? Why did God make this pronouncement? How does Nahum’s revelation compare to Jonah’s? How can a just God use one nation to judge another nation for its sin and then judge the afflicting nation for inflicting God’s punishment? And what can we learn from Nahum to apply in our own lives today? We’ll consider these questions and more.
