The Committed Church

Revelation 3:7-13

A chicken & a pig were walking around the farm one morning when the chicken said, "let’s get something to eat."
The pig said, "Ok… what shall we eat?"
The chicken said, "how about some breakfast" – with a big smile!
The pig paused for a minute, and said, "what are you thinking?"
The chicken quickly replied, "eggs & bacon"
The pig was quiet again for a minute, and then said, "no way!!!"
The chicken said, "why not Piggly what’s wrong???"
The pig replied, "well for you it’s just a contribution but for me it’s total commitment!"
Total commitment... the Church in Philadelphia, the committed church, the faithful church, the church in revival! This is the sixth letter out of the seven and this letter is filled with commendation! A positive letter, to a faithful church.

Unveiling The Future

September 18, 2019 • Jeff Cramer

When we know the central theme of Revelation is the Unveiling of Jesus Christ He brings joy/hope to those that will accept it to those that will read it / hear it / & keep it (v.3). Revelation is a prophecy (it makes specific predicts of the future); And when God talks about the future he speaks with certainty & He’s NOT guessing!

Come And See, Go And Tell

Last week I covered the intro to the book of Revelation and explained the flow (past / present / future) with some different ways it’s been interpreted. I shared that we’ll approach this book in a literal sense looking toward the future as prophetic events are unfolded. I should add the Futuristic approach is held by a vast majority of scholars and even Church fathers. The Apostle John writes 65-years after the death of Christ (A.D. 95). John was imprisoned on the Island of Patmos where he had been sent to die. This was after authorities tried to kill him by boiling him in oil, but it didn’t work. Yet through these harsh experiences John didn’t get bitter it actually created a deeper love for people.

Letters From The End of The World

October 2, 2019 • Jeff Cramer

There are seasons where God strips away life as we know it to get us alone with Him because He has more to say to us. Even when He leads me into a valley I can’t see thru. John uses the words – Patience endurance (NLT), describing a person who counted the cost and decided to remain faithful no matter what the outcome was!
