Orthodoxy & Suffering
Jun 30, 2024 • Pastor Rory Adams
In this episode Pastor Rory will be preaching on Revelation chapter 2. This sermon discusses the messages to the first two churches. Jesus is speaking to John, who is passing along His words to the churches. The first church has a mix of commendation and rebuke. The second church only receives commendation. The second church was being persecuted and losing their lives for the sake of Jesus' name. There is no rebuke for these suffering Christians. Their suffering had helped keep them pure in faith and life. When following Jesus is costly, it forces you to decide if you are going to make him #1 and your treasure, or if you are going to walk away.
