[The following notes were taken at the 10:45AM service this morning at Kosmosdale Baptist Church. The sermon should soon be available to hear on-line HERE.]

Nahum 3:1-7

I. Introduction
A. God delivered a funeral sermon for Ninevah 30 to 40 years before the event.
B. God's judgment against the wicked will come to pass even if, from our perspective, it seems delayed:
1. Jeremiah 12:1
2. II Peter 3:9

II. The First Part of the Funeral Message for Ninevah: The Case Against Ninevah
A. The Charge Against Ninevah (Nah 3:1-4)
B. The Penalty Due to Ninevah (Nah 3:5-7)
C. Application:
1. America
a. Like Ninevah, America will NOT fall due to lack of military strength, BUT due to violence, greed, and immorality.
b. We will reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7-10).
2. Personal
a. Each of us have sowed according to the flesh and deserve to reap corruption (cf. Gal 6:8).
b. THEREFORE we must flee to Christ.
