    We can easily become complacent and lukewarm in a comfortable environment, self-deceived into thinking we are fine. The Lord reveals our true need.

    This is the most popular and the most used passage among all the seven messages given to the churches in Revelation. • It is so because many people can identify with the condition in Laodicea. • This church’s experience wasn’t unique; it is common. We see that even in our own lives. • The ...read more

    "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." We have to completely give ourselves to God because we belong to him. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    What is love? Only the bible can rightly answer this question.
