About this listen
This sermon traces the Exodus plagues as a cosmic “dragon-slaying” narrative: Pharaoh is portrayed as a chaos-dragon like the mythic Leviathan, humiliated when Aaron’s staff-dragon swallows his magicians’ staffs and finally vanquished when he is swallowed by the sea. The pattern prefigures Christ’s greater victory—Jesus, the true Dragon Slayer, humiliates the devil through his ministry, disarms him at the cross, and empties death’s power at the resurrection. Yet the dragon still writhes until the second coming, when Satan and death will be cast into the lake of fire and all chaos erased. Believers, living between cross and consummation, are called to expose evil, walk humbly, and persevere in rugged hope until the triumph and feast of King Jesus, the Dragon Slayer.
