Episode 147: The Church of Pride

I think we are all familiar with the booming mega-church in Sardis. No? Unfortunately, no this was never to be. Jesus tells the church at Sardis that although they look like they're alive, they were in fact dead. And the church at Sardis no longer exists today. This is something that you never want to be said about your church, but if your church is preaching something other than God's Word, you have reason to be concerned.

But even in this church, there were a few that hadn't given into the sinful dealings of the church. And the message Jesus gave the church of Sardis was to "be alert". This is a warning we should all take to heart, personally, and corporately. We must be alert. The enemy is prowling, the flesh is weak, the false teachers are convincing...we must be alert.

Join Pastor Jason as he dissects the warning given to the church at Sardis and shows us how we should apply this to our lives and our church as a whole.
