David Platt Drops 50-Point Sermon from Revelation at CROSS Conference

Here are all 50 points.

Written by Jonathan Howe | Friday, January 11, 2019

Platt, who preaches for nearly six hours during his annual Secret Church events, made it through the entire book of Revelation and all 50 points in about an hour at the missions conference in Louisville, Kentucky. The points included 48 characteristics of Jesus and a pair of exhortations. Video of the sermon (and others from the conference) can be seen at cross19.thegospelcoalition.org.

 

David Platt may be known for his radical ways, but when he stepped to the stage January 5 at the 2019 CROSS conference, no one expected to get a 50-point sermon.

Platt, who preaches for nearly six hours during his annual Secret Church events, made it through the entire book of Revelation and all 50 points in about an hour at the missions conference in Louisville, Kentucky.

The points included 48 characteristics of Jesus and a pair of exhortations. Video of the sermon (and others from the conference) can be seen at cross19.thegospelcoalition.org.

Thabiti Anyabwile was live tweeting the 50 points. Here they are in their entirety:

  1. Jesus is fully man
  2. Jesus is fully God
  3. Jesus is the fulfillment of biblical prophecy
  4. Jesus is the final and ultimate sacrifice for sin
  5. Jesus is infinitely old
  6. Jesus is infinitely wise
  7. Jesus sees all things
  8. Jesus knows all things
  9. Jesus’ purity has no error
  10. Jesus’ power knows no equal
  11. Jesus’ voice resounds with authority
  12. Jesus declares eternal salvation for all who trust in Him
  13. Jesus decrees final judgment for all who do not trust in Him
  14. Jesus’ face radiates with light
  15. Jesus has the first word in creation (Alpha)
  16. Jesus has the last word in creation (Omega)
  17. Jesus was dead for a time
  18. Jesus is alive for all time
