Whose Kingdom Are You Really Building? Pt. 1

Pastor Jeff Vines examines Revelation 17–19, explaining how "Babylon" is code for any worldly metropolis whose wealth and pleasures entice people away from God, while "Jerusalem" represents God's kingdom. He argues every person is a "city builder," either constructing the kingdom of man for self-glory or the kingdom of God, and there is no neutral ground between the two.

Using vivid illustrations—from a bug zapper's fatal allure to skipping stones on a river—Vines outlines diagnostic questions to reveal which city we truly serve: have we fallen for Babylon's false promises of fulfilment, become superficial "skimmers" of faith and relationships, or committed spiritual adultery by chasing worldly success instead of Christ? He urges listeners to root their identity and security in Jesus alone, living as citizens of heaven who engage but don't assimilate into Babylon's culture.
