Mixed Up

April 22, 2018 • Pastor Billy Richards

"In His message to the believers in Pergamum, Jesus acknowledges the faithfulness of the church during a time of persecution. Although they remained faithful, the church had began to embrace various unbiblical attitudes and practices of the surrounding culture. These included sexual immorality, idolatry, and perversion that had found its way into the church.

The same dangers remain for us today. Like the church in Pergamum, we must resist the temptation to adopt the accepted but unbiblical practices of our culture and the wider society. Jesus calls this idolatry – a result of mixing Christian truth with unbiblical beliefs. Idolatry is anything, anyone, or any thought that stands between us and God.

In this sermon, Pastor Billy provides practical and biblical steps to help us identify areas of idolatry in our lives, starting with biblical and genuine repentance."
