    Sardis: Confessions Of A Dying Church Series

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Apr 8, 2013
     | 7,298 views

    This is the sixth message in this series that looks at the letters to the seven churches in the book of Revelation. This message examines the letter to the church at Sardis and how they were spiritually dead and didn't know it.

    As depressing as it might be the opening passage of this letter sounds more like an obituary. The body of believers in Sardis is dead….well almost. Only faint life signs of a faithful remnant remain. For the majority there it was too late, their faith had already flat lined. What begins ...read more

    This is a study of the church of Philadelphia in the book of Revelation. This is a controversial subject but takes a conservative approach to understanding the book.

Now, some of you listen to everything I say regardless, and some of you - and I know who you are - sleep through all my sermons - but I do try to set the ...read more

    New Testament churches do not naturally die; they are so constituted that they cannot die a natural death. They may, however, be killed, but even in this, they can hardly be killed by outsiders except by the annihilation of the entire membership. Churches

    The church at Sardis had become arrogant and thus comfortable with their ’church.’ The result was compacency, apathy, and death. This should be a warning for churches today.

    The Comfortable Church Revelation 3:1-6 * Having read about this church and preached this text many times, I have labored over the proper name for this church. Terms like dead, decaying, or dying, as well as confused, contented, or cozy, were tops on my list. However, comfortable is the ...read more
