It’s called the Law of Expectation. The fact is, we tend to get what we expect out of life. We tend ...read more

We live in the United States. • We’re should be immune to suffering. We’re blessed! IT’S TRUE: we do live in an incredible time in history. • We ...read more

    When faithfulness becomes costly, Jesus reminds His church that suffering does not have the final word. He knows our affliction, limits the enemy’s power, and calls us to stand firm in His victory — because those who remain faithful will share in His life beyond death.

    ## **INTRODUCTION — A CHURCH THAT KNEW WHAT IT MEANT TO DIE AND LIVE AGAIN** As we begin this morning, before we listen to what Jesus says to Smyrna, it is important to look back at where we have been. We started our study by stepping into Revelation chapter 1. Before Jesus corrects His church, ...read more
