Heslop writes, “The book of Ruth consists of less than 100 verses, and yet it would be impossible to exhaust it ...read more

    The Letter To Sardis

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Oct 7, 2021
     | 1,234 views

    This will sit well with those who believe that you can lose your justification because of your actions. The belief of once saved always saved is clearly challenged in this letter. When one comes to be a disciple of Jesus Christ one must follow the words of Him.

    The Letter to Sardis Revelation 3:1-6 Michael H. Koplitz The letter to the church at Sardis is a straightforward letter with very little symbolism. The one who holds the seven stars is Jesus Christ. We have read about this symbolism in earlier letters. The reference that is made to those who will ...read more
