    The Church Under Pressure - Sardis Series

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Dec 7, 2017
     | 7,519 views

    Churches can refuse to face the reality of their spiritual condition before God. Styles and traditions can become so fixed that they continue and become empty of Holy Spirit power. Good works and a nice church format are not what God is seeking.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 12,014 views

    Philadelphia always stayed faithful to the Christian faith until the end of its history, a powerful testament to the nature of a church for which Jesus had no admonition nor condemnation. God grant that we, too, may have that faithfulness to the end.

    THE CHURCH OF THE OPEN DOOR READING Rev 3:7-12 1. HISTORY OF PHILADELPHIA Philadelphia/Alesehir is located approximately 80 miles east of Smyrna/Izmir and 26 miles southwest of Sardis.

     | 10,519 views

    Laodicea was the second of the seven churches of Asia to receive no commendation from the Lord. Such a state requires us to look very carefully at this church, which lived within an affluent society whose attitudes clearly rubbed off on the church.

     | 6,453 views

    Now I want to admit something to you. As a young boy I will admit to you that the first time I tithed I wasn’t sure if I like it or not. Partly I suppose because no one asked me if I wanted to or not. He just chose to give my money away for me. Sort of like the government does.

    A little church like ours can have a big impact if we trust the Savior, love the saints, and put our hope in the certainty of the Gospel.

    As a church leader, I am often challenged by the question: If our church would cease to exist, how much would the community really miss us?
