    Truth Or Dare Series

    The church must hold to the right doctrine. In Pergamos, they held to the name of Christ, but it had no content or real meaning to them.

    As the messenger who was carrying this letter from the island of Patmos where John wrote it, he would have come to Ephesus first. He would have stayed there while it was read and then left them a copy. Then he would have headed north to Smyrna and done the same thing. The third stop on his ...read more

    Our highest calling as Christians is to be with Jesus. When we lose our passion for Jesus, and interest in the Kingdom of God, we need a personal revival.

    REVIVAL #3 – RETURNING TO OUR FIRST LOVE INTRO: For the past few weeks, we’ve been considering the topics of healing and revival. • Is this as good as it gets? I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of the usual. • I want to see more of God in my life, my ministry, and our church. OPENING TEXT: ...read more

    Laodicea, The Lukewarm Church Rev 3:14-22 Intro. Here we come to the letter to the seventh church, this is probably the one most often spoken of. Those who believe these letters represent different church ages, they say this is more like today than any of the other churches spoken of. Even those ...read more

    based on 24 ratings
     | 16,840 views

    Jezebel was a woman who did many wicked things but what scripture tells us is that it is not what Jezebel did that sent her to hell. It is what she did not do and that is repent and accept Christ.

    Note to speaker: The story of Jezebel is one right out of Hollywood. Her sins captivate the audience as well as her gory demise. Jezebel was a woman who did many wicked things but what scripture tells us is that it is not what Jezebel did that sent her to hell. It is what she did not do and that is ...read more

    Apathy is one of the biggest problems in the church today.

    Satan has a tool in his arsenal of weapons and hes really been making good use of it here in America. The tool is the spirit of Apathy, and thats the subject of this article.

    "It is only the atheist who adopts success as the criterion of right." - Robert Lewis Dabney --------------- If Dabney were here today he would have to modify that statement to include many so-called Evangelicals.

    Gods sends a message to the Churches of Asia encouraginf them to persever to the end and promising a reward to those who do.

    I receive lots of letters each week, from various organisations, and I have to say, most of them end up in the cardboard file on my floor - waiting to be recycled. Some, though, I take more notice of than others. Some I deal with immediately. Others I put in the pile in the centre of my desk to be ...read more

    ONe chrch appears alive but is dead, one feels as good as dead but there’s still ife there if only they’ll persevere.

    Today we read about two churches with a significant contrast of characteristics. One thinks it’s alive but is dead, the other feels as good as dead but is alive. Sardis was a sophisticated city and perhaps that was the reason that persecution against Christians wasn’t such a problem as it was ...read more

    we need to resist the pressures of our culture to conform unthinkingly to the status quo and to compromise on the major principles of our faith. We need to recover the radical edge of Jesus’ teaching, that turns the values of the world upside down.

    It’s interesting how we can go from the two letters we saw last week where one church thought they were alive and were actually dead and another thought they were as good as dead but actually had plenty of life in them, to the final letter of the seven where the church is neither one thing nor the ...read more
