When the Church Stops Looking Like Jesus — The Warning to Pergamum (Revelation 2:12–17)


Listen Later

What happens when the church still speaks about Jesus — but slowly stops reflecting Him?

Pergamum was faithful under pressure from the outside, yet Jesus exposes a quieter danger within: compromise, distortion, and teaching that slowly pulls hearts away from Him.

This episode is for:

  • those who are disillusioned but not done with Jesus

  • seekers curious if Jesus is still good — when Christians fail

  • believers longing for renewal, depth, and truth with love

We’ll explore:

  • Why Jesus is not indifferent when His name is misrepresented

  • The difference between honest struggle and spiritual drift

  • How love always tells the truth — even when it’s uncomfortable

  • The tender hope of hidden manna and a new name

If you’ve ever said, “I love Jesus… but I’ve struggled with the church” — this is for you.

If this speaks to you, share it with someone who needs to know Jesus has not given up on His church — or on them.
