Manifesto of Freedom - Life in the Spirit
There is now no condemnation for those in Christ. How does one live this no condemnation life? God sends the Holy Spirit to live in us and show us. The Spirit's role is to make us look more like Christ by putting the old life behind us and fully participate in the new humanity. God has freed us by his grace and now we are a part of the rescue and repair of all things. - Hank Wilson

The Church of Pergamum: Revelation 2:12-27
The church at Pergamum, much like many of our American churches, was filled with three kinds of people: the faithful, the compromisers, and the people who didn’t know which group was correct. As the political capital of the region, emperor worship was at its zenith in Pergamum; it was the place where Satan had his throne. In this context, Jesus rebukes the faithful for tolerating people in their church who are both compromising and telling others that it is ok to compromise. He calls the church at Pergamum and us to confront sin, root it out, and fight it. Our Savior calls us to repent of everything that threatens us from knowing and experiencing the fullness of joy that he has come to offer.
