Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

For many people in today’s church, the term worldliness has a quaint, old-fashioned ring to it. They associate it with prohibitions against things like dancing, going to the movies, or playing cards. Today’s user-friendly, seeker-oriented, market-driven church doesn’t preach much against worldliness. But unlike much of the contemporary church, the Bible doesn’t hesitate to condemn worldliness for the serious sin that it is.

We’re looking at the seven churches of Revelation. There were real churches just like Solid Rock. They existed at the end of the first century in what is today the nation of Turkey. They help us understand what it means to be the church. The first letter to Ephesus taught us that the church is to love God first, passionately and fervently... and then love its fellow members. A church may have many admirable qualities, but if it lacks a first love for God and then its believers, it is in danger of God removing His hand of blessing. Smyrna has a different message. Definitively stated, the church will suffer for Christ. There is no criticism of this church. Of the seven churches, only two escape any criticism: Smyrna and Philadelphia. At some time in your Christian journey, you will be tempted to lose heart and quit. Jesus encourages us to trust Him.

Why aren’t we the church we should be? Because we have forgotten what it is that we are to be. It all starts with the right attitude of the heart. This morning... let’s pause long enough to ask ourselves... if we care about our relationship with the Lord. I’m not asking if you are a Christian, I’m asking if you care about your relationship with the Lord.
