A Lost Church Can Find Its Way Again

In this powerful exploration of the Book of Revelation, we're challenged to examine our relationship with Christ's church. The message centers on Jesus' words to the church in Ephesus, found in Revelation 2. We're reminded that Jesus walks among His churches, seeing our devotion and our shortcomings. The church at Ephesus was commended for their hard work, endurance in hardship, intolerance of wickedness, and discernment against false teachings. However, they were rebuked for losing their first love. This serves as a wake-up call for us to maintain both sound doctrine and fervent love for Christ and others. The parallels drawn between ancient Ephesus and our modern world are striking, urging us to consider how we might be facing similar challenges in our faith journey. Are we working hard for the Kingdom while neglecting our intimate relationship with Jesus? This message encourages us to reflect on our priorities and rekindle our passion for Christ, balancing doctrinal purity with genuine love and compassion.

This isn’t about comfort, appearances, or opinions. It’s about returning to the feet of Jesus in awe, surrender, and real love.

In this message, we dive deep into:

How Jesus sees His Church (spoiler: He’s watching both the stage and the seats).

Why hard work, endurance, and truth matter — but love matters even more.

The dangerous lie of “tolerance” — and why real love draws a line.

How a lost church (or a lost heart) can find its way back home.

🔥 Bring your Bible. Bring your hunger.

Jesus is calling His Church higher — and He’s starting with us.
