Revelation 2:12-17 “From Repentance to Reward”

We love the idea of God fighting for us. As Israel stood with the Red Sea in front of them and the army of Egypt chasing from behind them, Moses said, “The LORD will fight for you.” Nehemiah told the people rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, that when they heard the sound of the trumpet...

Revelation 2:12-17 ” Pergamos, Balaam & Accountability”

Imagine being faithful enough to endure persecution, but not enough to accept accountability; holding fast to Jesus’ name, but not to His Word. That’s exactly where the church of Pergamos found themselves in Revelation 2:12-17.

Revelation 1:17-20 “Seeing Jesus’ Sovereignty”

In the first chapter of Revelation the Father and the Son use the same description for themselves four different time. Four times we read about them being the First and the Last. The question we need to ask ourselves as we finish chapter 1 of Revelation is, “What should it mean to us when God...

Revelation 1:7-11 “Look”

After singing about the majesty of Jesus, John in Revelation 1:7, gave us the first command and promise of the book of Revelation. He commanded us to “Look” and promised that Jesus is coming with the clouds. The word “Look” is much more than just where we put our eyes, it’s the position of our...
