Sermons About Change
First Love
# Synopsis: It is crazy but the longer we are in love the more likely it is to fall out of love. Sometimes we forget to keep the main thing the main thing in our relationships and take those we love for granted. In the verses selected the believers neglected their first love. It's similar to the times when we neglect the love of Christ and our relationship with God. Scripture: Revelation 2: 1-7 (NIV) Revelation 2:1 "To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands: 2 I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked men, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false. 3 You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary. 4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. 5 Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place. 6 But you have this in your favor: You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God. Points: 1. Do you remember the first time you fell in Love? 2. What happened? 3. Heart to Heart Conversation 4. Reality Check 5. Opportunity to fall in love again Attachments Notes Icon_add # Closing

You Say You Want a Revolution?
Jesus was threatening to the leaders of the Jewish nation because they feared he would lead the people to revolt against Rome and then the Romans would send in the legions and wipe out the nation.
