The Curse of Moderate Christianity
Revelation 3:14-22 – January 31, 2012How do you become lukewarm? Just do nothing, and that’s what you will become.
The Church Christ Prefers
Revelation 3:7-13 – January 21, 2012Jesus wants his churches to be motivated by love, founded on the truth, strong under pressure, and unashamed of his name.
Church of the Living Dead
Revelation 3:1-6 – November 30, 2011The Sardis spirit overtakes us whenever we begin to take God’s gifts for granted. How quickly we can become the Church of the Living Dead and not even know it.
Sleeping With the Enemy
Revelation 2:18-29 – November 8, 2011You can have the cheap thrills of the world and feel sick to your stomach the next morning. Or you can have Jesus now, a new life now, forgiveness now, real pleasure now, and you will one day rise to shine like the Morning Star.
The Tragedy of Open-Minded Christianity
Revelation 2:12-17 – October 28, 2011Christians are narrow-minded about God’s truth. We believe something the chattering classes find incredible. We believe that God has spoken in his Word and that his Word is to be obeyed, not debated.
When Life Goes Bad
Revelation 2:8-11 – October 21, 2011To those who stand strong in the midst of trials, the best is yet to come. We will receive the “crown of life” and reign with Jesus forever. The “second death” in hell cannot touch us at all.
When Jesus Comes to Church
Revelation 2:1-7 – October 15, 2011How easy it is to substitute knowledge for a warm heart toward Jesus. How quickly we justify our hard hearts by pointing to all our well-intentioned religiosity.
