    Jesus Rebukes the church at Sardis for being too active. How can that be? We see in the sermon.

    These warnings in Revelation 2 and 3, serve generally as a wakeup call. A call to attention, A call to leave nothing undone, A call to carry God’s gospel with firsthand experience and knowledge of the gospels ability to do whatever is needed!

    Contributed by Maria Saunders on Jul 14, 2021
     | 12,077 views

    Since the beginning of time, names were significant; they’re important. Biblical names had meaning; they were brands, the family’s trademark.

    Have you ever been in a fickle and all you could do was start think of someone to call upon. All you could do was try to remember that individual’s name. Maybe you saw someone but you couldn’t remember that person’s name (Now I know I’m not by myself in this situation). Since the beginning of ...read more

    The Historical Fate Of The Seven Churches In The Book Of Revelation

     | 9,657 views

    There are many good studies and observations about the seven churches from a spiritual perspective that can be applied to churches today. However, this study will not address them, but rather review the actual history of the churches and where they are today (2025).

    In the Book of Revelation, Jesus sent a message to seven churches that were located in the western part of Asia Minor, directly south of the Black Sea (Modern day Turkey). The word "church" is translated from the Greek word "ekklesia" which means the people of God, the whole ...read more

    You could not imagine a more clear-cut invitation to receive God’s free gift of eternal life than this final climactic invitation of the Bible. (Outlined from ICR's "Day's of Praise")

    Revelation 22:17 (KJV) And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. It’s at the end of all the history that we have known. It’s at the end of all things that will happen ...read more

    can a church that was once so full of life become a white-washed tomb full of dead men’s bones and rotting corpses? That, my fellow investigators, is our job this morning as “Christian Soul Investigators.” Get it? “CSI”

    Sardis: Socially Active But Spiritually Dead

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 3, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,812 views

    Sardis was the fifth church Jesus addressed in the Revelation. While the letter was shorter than the others, this one was the most severe. Apparently, Sardis has assimilated into the culture - with little difference known between the church and the world.

    Sardis: Socially Active but Spiritually Dead Revelation 3: 1-6 As we continue to examine the churches to whom John sent letters, we come to the fifth – the church at Sardis. Of the seven, the message to Sardis was the most severe. They were content to rely on prior works and a reputation from the ...read more
