In the sermon titled "The Harvests," Don Bell addresses the theological doctrines surrounding death, resurrection, and the final judgment as depicted in Revelation 14:13-20. He emphasizes that those who die "in the Lord" are blessed, highlighting the importance of a vital union with Jesus Christ for a believer's eternal status. Bell supports his arguments by referencing Scripture passages, such as Paul's assertion in Philippians 1:21 that "to die is gain," and explicating the two-fold harvest depicted in Revelation — one for the righteous and another for the wicked, as seen in verses 14 to 20. The practical significance of this sermon lies in the comfort and hope it provides to believers regarding their final resting place, contrasting it with the dire prospects for the unredeemed and reinforcing the Reformed theology of God's sovereignty in salvation and judgment.
