Come, Jesus Come, pt. 3 - The Seven Letters, Cont’d

Passage: Revelation 3

Jesus finishes the seven letters with Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea—and the accountability sharpens. One church looks alive but is dead, another has little strength yet stays true and faithful, and another is lukewarm, wealthy, and spiritually blind. This message calls us to drop the facade, stay steadfast, repent when conviction comes, and open the door while Christ is knocking.

Key Takeaways:

• Guard yourself against the trap of appearances—you can fool the world, but Christ sees to your very core
• Christ’s opinion is the only one that matters
• If no one else is doing what’s right in the eyes of the Lord, be the last one
• Little strength, but true and faithful—what an awesome description for a follower of Christ
• We serve the holy Lamb of God who holds the keys to our spiritual future
• Don’t rely on earthly possessions instead of your heavenly Father—comfort leads to stagnation
• Lukewarm does no good
• Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline—that’s love
• Conviction isn’t punishment; it’s the loving correction of a good God
• Jesus is standing at the door and knocking—will you answer?
