“The End Game”
30th In our series the Prophet Micah

I. The Remnant of the Lord - Micah 5:7
* A. Remnant of Jacob, not of Judah
* 1. Of Judah there would be a remnant return to rebuild the temple and Jerusalem under Ezra & Nehemiah
* 2. But there is a larger fulfillment in a remnant composed of all who are in Christ
* a. The Israel of God - Romans 9:6-8
* b. Remnant according to Grace - Romans 11:1, 5
* B. The Dispersion of the Remnant across the face of the earth
* 1. After the war with Assyria Israel (northern kingdom) dispersed throughout that empire
* 2. After the conquest by Babylon, Judah (southern kingdom) dispersed into that empire
* a. Even though a remnant return to Judah the majority of exiles remained in the Babylon
* b. The great dispersion was 70 A.D. into the Roman empire
* c. The dispersion of the Israel of God - Acts 8:1

II. The Lord’s People Tender and Terrible - Micah 5:7-8
* A. The Gospel like dews comes from heaven as a blessing to all mankind - Psalm 72:4-7
* B. Yet to the unrepentant wicked, comes fearsome Judgment
* 1. The remnant are like the king of the beasts ruling over men - Revelation 20:4
* 2. Like a lion destroying sheep - Revelation 19:21
* 3. Not only destroying the wicked but destroying Satan himself - Romans 16:20
* a. We must never forget that in Christ we are more than conquerers - Romans 8:37
* b. We must never let the enemy deceive us
