New Sermon series on the 7 churches in Revelation 15Oct09

Starting October 4th, 2009 Kaleo will explore the letter to the 7 churches in the book of Revelation.  From Tim Cain who will be preaching this series at the Linda Vista and El Cajon. I am so excited about the next eight weeks and the series we are starting on the seven churches in Revelation.  One of the reasons I am so excited is because, like many of you, it has been a long time since I have studied anything in the book of Revelation.  Many of us avoid it because we ...

The Church of Philadelphia: Revelation 3:7-13

The church of Philadelphia was a weak church. It wasn’t like Sardis. It didn’t have a reputation for being alive; it had a reputation for being weak and small. This church was constantly being persecuted by the Jews. Jesus knows they had little power, and he was not disappointed in their weakness because in it they turned to him. This church chose to cling to Jesus because they knew they needed him more than peace with the Jews, more than a comfortable life, and more than a good reputation. They knew that they were weak and that his grace alone was enough. They knew that they were sinners and that his blood alone could rescue them from the wrath of God and give them peace with him. Jesus loves those who cling to him above all else. No one whose hope is in Jesus will ever be disappointed, so Jesus comes to show them why they have chosen wisely. He comes to show them, and us, why he is better than everything else.

The Church of Sardis: Revelation 3:1-6

This church’s strength is its greatest weakness. This church has the reputation of being alive. However, this reputation has caused them to take their eyes off of Jesus and look to themselves. Jesus calls them to remember the message they received and heard. They were dead in their sins until Jesus came and lived a perfect life and shed his precious blood on their behalf on a roman cross to wash away their sins and clothe them in clean garments of his righteousness. He is the one who is alive and we only live, if we live, through him. All boasting must be in him and in what he has accomplished on the cross. This letter is a call for the church which bears the name Christian to need, love, and treasure Christ. We need to wake up from our delusional self-reliance, and remember when Jesus was our only hope. Remember that you are dead and you need Jesus and the Holy Spirit, which he alone can give, to make you alive.

The Church of Sardis: Blood Washing

Sardis has religious people who compare themselves to others and then fill themselves with religious pride. “Well, sure I have committed some sins but my neighbor Frank doesn’t even go to church. I go to church therefore God loves me more than Frank.” Religion separates people into two groups. Good people and bad people. The bible separates them in two groups, too. Bad people and Jesus.
