  • Laodicea: Things Spoil At Room Temperature Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 16, 2003
    based on 55 ratings
     | 6,440 views

    The world will invade us with its values. But we are called to be "hot" to pursue such things as compassion and evangelism and "cold" toward such things as hostility and prejudice. We can sustain these values if we are connected to one another and to Go

    The Harlem Renaissance poet, Langston Hughes, speaks to me. I trust he also speaks to you. In fact, that is the very title of his poem! “To You” To sit and dream, to sit and read, To sit and learn about the world Outside our world of here and now – our problem world – To dream of vast horizons ...read more

    An eight part series concerning the Seven Churches of the Revelation and their relevance for us.

    It happened 1848 years ago this very day. February 23, 155. His name was Polycarp and he was the bishop of the city of Smyrna. As a young man he had been a disciple of the Apostle John, but he was no longer a young man as a matter of fact he was eighty six years old. And February 23rd would be ...read more

    This is the third in an eight part series on the seven churches of the Revelation

    It was the third of seven. The city of Pergamum, or Pergamos as it is called by some translations (It’s the same name simply the masculine and feminine forms) didn’t have the beauty of Smyrna nor the commerce of Ephesus however it was still a great city in it’s own right, a city of culture and ...read more

    This is the fifth in an eight part series concerning the eight churches of Asia

    This is the fifth week of an eight week series and this morning we are looking at the fourth of seven churches. It’s interesting to note that this is the longest letter and yet it’s addressed to the church that was situated in the least important city of the seven. If we were to pull up our ...read more

  • Comfort For Difficult Times Series

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Apr 25, 2004
    based on 26 ratings
     | 6,401 views

    This is on the Letter to Smyrna.

    This is the only mention in the Bible about the Church of Smyrna. Smyrna was very close to Ephesus, which we looked at last week. Paul likely started the church while he was in Ephesus for three years. Acts 19:10 says, “This continued for two years, so that all the residents of Asia heard the ...read more

  • How Should We Respond To Pressures? Series

    This about the letter to the Church in Pergamum.

    We hear a lot in our day about pressure. We have pressure here. We have pressure there. Pressure, pressure, everywhere pressure. We talk about pressure with the weather. One thing I have noticed is that when we have low pressure, we get hurricanes. High pressure brings a clear, sunny ...read more

  • Keeping Up Appearances Series

    based on 27 ratings
     | 3,634 views

    This is about the letter to Thyatira.

    There is a British comedy show called Keeping Up Appearances. (Give brief overview of the show.) Things aren’t always as they appear. The middle church of the seven is a church where things weren’t as they appeared. Read Revelation 2:18-29. One thing that is fascinating about this letter is ...read more

  • Hold Fast Thy Crown Series

    Contributed by Adam Deibert on May 7, 2004
    based on 106 ratings
     | 34,840 views

    The church of Smyrna shows us today how to live a victorious Christian life in the face of persecution and trial.

    It has been said that there have been more Christian martyrs in recent years than there were during the time of the Caesars. According to a study done by Regent University, in 1999, nearly 164’000 Christians worldwide were martyred for their faith, and in 2000 that number was closer to 165’000. ...read more

  • Hold Fast What You Have Series

    Contributed by Adam Deibert on May 7, 2004
    based on 38 ratings
     | 15,545 views

    From the church of Thyatira we learn that we fall from grace when we allow any other authority than Jesus Christ to rule in our lives, and His church is weakened by rebellion against His established church leadership.

    If there’s one thing we’ve learned as we’ve studied the first three churches of Revelation, it’s that there’s nothing new under the sun. As we’ve taken the time to look so far at these churches, we can see that no matter what we as a church are going through at this point in history – whatever it ...read more

  • Watch Out! Series

     | 13,001 views

    The church of Sardis reminds us of the imminence of Christ’s return, and calls us to be found ready at all times.

    I read a story this week, from an old Reader’s Digest, about a cat was run over by a car. The cat belonged to 4-year-old Billy, and before he could find out about his cat’s death, his mother quickly disposed of the remains. After a few days, though, Billy finally asked about the cat. “Billy, the ...read more

    based on 40 ratings
     | 6,261 views

    This is on the letter to Sardis.

    Do your remember the Folgers commercial where that college student named Peter sneaks into the house at Christmas and started making coffee? Everyone in the house soon woke up to rich aroma. The churches of chapter 2 are told to “remember,” “repent,” “be faithful,” “hold fast,” and other things. ...read more

    based on 26 ratings
     | 9,004 views

    This is on the Letter to Philadelphia

    Some places have locked doors where you can’t go. Many businesses have “security doors” to control who can and can’t get in or out. Stores have “open doors” at the front, but closed doors in the back. We are to use the “open” door, not the closed one. Read Revelation 3:7-13. There are some ...read more

    A Sermon on the Church at Laodicea ! The church with a closed door.....closed even to Jesus !

    THE CHURCH WITH THE CLOSED DOOR Revelation 3:14-22 This scene must break the heart of God. When I read these verses, it brings to mind abandoned churches....closed, locked, boarded up.

    setup sermon for a study of the 7 churches found in Rev. 2-3

    From Your Mouth To My Ears Rev 1:9-11, 17-20 One of the things I have heard over and over in our fellowship is the need to be like the church of the Bible. That sounds great, but which church are we supposed to be like? The church in Jerusalem that was bigoted? Corinth with it?s immorality ...read more
