Letters From Jesus: Laodicea, Revelation 3:14-22


Listen Later

In this sermon by Chris Romig, the emphasis is on Revelation 3:20, where Jesus stands at the door, knocking and seeking communion with those inside the church. Chris illustrates Jesus' invitation using the imagery of an intimate, lingering evening meal. Contrary to common use in evangelism, this message is directed toward believers, specifically the lukewarm church of Laodicea, known for its wealth and self-sufficiency.

Chris critiques the spiritual complacency of the Laodicean church, described as poor, naked, and blind despite living in a prosperous city. He draws parallels between their tepid water supply and spiritual state, warning against being a church that blends with the world and lacks true influence. The sermon challenges believers to question if Jesus is outside, knocking at their church's door.

Despite the strong rebuke, Chris emphasizes Jesus' love and call for repentance, urging the congregation to seek a fervent spiritual transformation. He invites believers to be the individual who opens the door to Jesus, igniting their church with the Holy Spirit's fire and allowing God's glory to shine through their lives.
