Message: “Pergamum: The Compromised Church” from JR. Forasteros2020-03-042020-03-08https://jrforasteros.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/jrcc.jpgJR. Forasteroshttps://jrforasteros.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/jrcc.jpg200px200px
How often do we examine the roots of our values? Why do we really care about the things we care about? How did we decide what our vision for the Good Life is? Christians in Pergamum had the same problem we do – they assumed the values of their culture were compatible with Jesus’ vision for their lives. Jesus warns them – and us – that’s not the case. How can we know what Jesus wants for us?
Figuring out how to be faithful in our daily lives is challenging for anyone - especially because there are so many ways to answer those questions. How do we know what real, holy faithfulness looks like? Jesus makes himself known to the seven churches of the Revelation. His answers for them can guide us as well.
