Classic Audio: David Wilkerson's "The Vision"
About this Episode
In 1973, David Wilkerson delivered what would become one of his most referenced and controversial messages, later known as The Vision. Speaking with pastoral urgency rather than sensationalism, Wilkerson warned that Western society was entering a period of moral collapse marked by financial instability, rising lawlessness, sexual confusion, and a church drifting toward compromise. He described economic shaking that would expose false security, alongside a culture increasingly hostile to biblical truth.
Central to the sermon was Wilkerson’s warning that judgment would begin in the house of God. He cautioned that many churches would abandon repentance, holiness, and the authority of Scripture in favor of comfort and popularity. Yet the message was not despair-driven. Wilkerson emphasized that God would preserve a remnant marked by humility, prayer, and obedience, and that revival would arise not through programs or politics but through brokenness and repentance.
Wilkerson closed with hope rooted firmly in Christ, urging believers to stand unmoved, live cleanly, and trust God fully as the world around them grew darker. For listeners then and now, the sermon resonates less as prediction and more as diagnosis, a sober call to spiritual vigilance in an age of deception.
